Has anyone ever thought of this... maybe its a good thing Wii U had a rough first year?

Kinda like the motion control gimmick with the Wii, right?  Take away the motion controls in Wii Sports and do you think it sells even 1/100th of what it did?

Tetris was a great game, for all the reasons that made it a great game. Wii Sports was a great game, for all the reasons that made it a great game. So d-pad or wii-mote, it don't matter.

Why was tetris a great game? It had all the ingredients for success. Had a great puzzle gameplay and great graphics for its time period. Look at games like candy crush now surviving off of a similar concept today on facebook. It is a mindbending mainstay just like the rubix cube or chess to the non computer gaming crowd.
