Isn't the main selling point of the wii u the tablet controller? Then again, it looks like most games don't utilize it in very good way anyways so why not.

microsoft, sony and MS seem to need to learn this the hard way, the main selling point of any gaming console is... well... the games. Sony learnt it with the PS3. nintendo should have learnt it with the 3DS, but now they are going through the EXACT same thing with the WiiU. and microsoft learnt it with their X1 reveal

Xbox one and ps4 have the whole specs thing going for them along with the games. The wii u doesn't have that luxury so it needs something else to make up for it and the games will come eventually. Nintendo tried to mimic the lightning in the bottle situation with the wii u from the wii era which obviously didn't work this time around.
