I certainly agree that one game can completely turn around a console. Hell just look at what Monster Hunter did with PSP, what Pokemon did in the Gameboy renaissance when it was nearly dead.

Unfortunately, when it comes to Wii U, part of the problem lies with the controller, not all of it, but some. While the Wiimote was extremely intuitive and unintimidating for the average consumer, the Wii U gamepad is somewhat clunky, and intimidating for the mass consumer to use. For that reason, Wii U is going to have an uphill battle even if it gets some incredible games that have a mass appeal.
