The Wii U is the last console i bought and i still think it's such a great concept that failed for no real reason. Playing a game on the tv and having the mini map on the controller screen for example is so cool. They could've made so many completely different and new games. But i think it's just that no one really cared

I think in that case Nintendo was more a victim of its own success and they released the console a little too early. Everyone was still playing wiis back then and there were still so many great games coming out on the Wii.
