#1 answer would be: what's a Wii U?

They don't even think about the size of the controller. And those who have used it are very happy with it.

It is $100 dollars cheaper than the PS4 & XBox One (and a typical Wii buyer doesn't really know which console is more powerful, and they don't even care).

A typical Wii user doesn't even know that some games are first party and others are third party.


Exactly. And if it was up to this guy, the Wii U would cause even more confusion, be less unique, and make people wonder why it needs to exist. He thinks the same people who bought a Wii, played the crap out of Wii Sports and Guitar Hero for a while, then let the Wii collect dust are dying to go back out and play the same game they haven't touched in years.

The only people who really care about power are people nerdy enough to regularly visit gaming forums like us. Every time I try to explain the difference in power to the average person, they either get confused or they flat out don't give a damn. The only time people ever noticed a difference in power was last generation with the game between Wii and 360/PS3.

And anyone buying a Wii or Wii U for casual titles like Wii Sports probably doesn't give a shit about third party support when they wouldn't be buying more than stuff like Just Dance, CoD and whatever other mainstream casual fad is out there.
