It's about time, how many doorstops do we really need? My Wii gets used by my kids multiple times a week, so I guess that doorstop is a little harsh. The Wii was a good gaming system for a few years, but it's time was past 2 years after it came out. The WiiU is what it should have been, a much better system for the current HD world. There were a number of great games on the Wii, but they would have only been better on the WiiU.
More on topic : Wii was a monster sales machine even if it lacked a lot of features that I liked.
