If Wii U had a different name would sales be higher?

Wii U is quite ugly, but it's not the problem: the biggest problem has been deciding to use the Wii brand and then taking the retarded decision of killing the first Wii too early, basically killing that very brand name that Ninty wanted to use in ts new console. Besides this, Ninty marketing did a really shitty job to let people know Wii U isn't just a Wii variant with a new contrellere, but a whole new console. This completed the disaster. A disaster that Ninty can now partially fix, but even doing its best, it won't cancel tha fact that Ninty wasted that whole year when Wii U could have been the latest and coolest console.
It can still fight to keep at least 2nd place, anyway.

I respect your opinion.  But I say the Wii U is one of the most beautiful consoles ever.  Nintendo didn't kill the Wii early, it was dead.  The Wii U doesn't have to settle for second, it can very well take first place.  You're feeling some type of way, jealousy.

Well, "one of the most beautiful consoles ever" is a very subjective opinion, so I'll respect it too and I won't contest it, as criticising it too would be subjective, and in fact in my previous post I criticised only Ninty's strategy in the transition and Wii U marketing in general (although MS and Sony ones can be even worse if they are in the right mood to do marketing disasters  ). About killing Wii early, Ninty consoles' system sellers are mainly their biggest 1st party games, so it's Ninty that decides when a console of its must die.
