Wii = blue ocean product. Completely experience changing control mechanism that made games accessible to non-gamers like women and grand parents, etc. etc. Plus it was the "hot" item for a couple of years.
Wii U = read ocean product. This is Nintendo's PS3/360, the problem is those systems are 6-7 years old and cheaper with a bigger instal base and more games. Touchscreen on the controller doesn't radically change the experience. Sales to date have been poor even with a Mario game and Nintendo Land.
