It's a problem because the Wii died. 4 years ago it was hip and popular but today it's seen as a dead console for babies. By simply having Wii in Wii U's name a lot of the "HD bros" are turned off. On top of that most people thinking it's an add on also think "my kid/I moved on from the Wii along time ago. I'm going to waste more money on it." These people will not even get as far as seeing a price since they aren't interested in Wii. That doesn't mean they wouldn't be interested in a new $300 console.
Nintendo should casually just start calling it the "Nintendo U."
