Eh. Nintendo kinda did the Super thing with the SNES. Wii 2 would have been a bad name with Sony doing the PS4 and with the 360 and the XBox 1 and the 3DS. To the casual eye consoles would be a gigantic soup of numbers.
I confess, the Wii U is a tough system to name because of its uniqueness and because the name has to work in Japanese as well as English. And it has to be distinct from the Wii. This is a tough bunch of criteria and I think the Wii U is "good enough."
