Not relly shocking at all, Wii U was considered for fail in its first year, didn't had one single price cut through hole its life span, and was discounted only around 5 years after arrived on market. Wii U had some big games but they all come on system when was too late and was Wii U widely accepted like failed console without future, and big games later couldnt changed that point. You can bet that if Wii U on launch or in its first year had games like Splatoon, Mario Maker and MK8, Wii U sales number wouldnt be so bad, I mean thats reason why Nintendo prepared Zelda BotW, MK8, Splatoon 2 and Mario Odyssey for Switch 1st 10 months on market compared to Wii U, they know thats one of biggest resons why Wii U failed so bad.

All it's big games came late? Revisionist history at it's best. 

Wii U launched in 2012 and had practically no big exclusives until 2014. May seem like a normal waiting period to you, but Nintendo can't rely on Fifa and Call of Duty to sell their systems.
