The Wii wasn't a lucky thing, it was well advertised and even appealed to non regular gamers. The WiiU offers the same as the Wii but with a tablet, those older people that bought the Wii doesn't have the same appeal as the Wii and not as well advertised and is more expensive.
At the same time if they lower the price to 250 you might see a boom in sales just like when they did it with the 3DS, they have the games for the WiiU and the graphics are beautiful, the gamepad is a great thing but not appealing to older non tech oriented people, not saying those guys were the main consumers of the Wii here.
