And IF they had just went with a normal controller, the entire console would sell at a profit AND would probably be a little more powerful.

You're probably right, but would it sell as well? It might lead to another Gamecube scenario. Don't get me wrong; the Gamecube was profitable, but it performed poorly compared to its competition. The Wii marked a renaissance for Nintendo, and I think the company needs to continue its legacy of innovation in order to be successful.


If it didn't, it wouldn't be having such phenomenal beginning success, or such strong third-party support; sure a lot of it are ports, but the fact of the matter is the Wii U is receiving some of the best games from third-party developers, including a decent looking Zombie exclusive. Regardless, the Gamecube had a rough time because of the fact it just lacked third-party support, or decent third-party support at least, and yes I realize you could try to say that about the Wii, but it also brought in Nintendo's attempts to enter the Online community, despite how weak it was. If you look at the Gamecube you'll see that North America practically got no games that supported online play, most of that was reserved for Japan.
