Wii U will definitely do better than GC just for the fact that it's a successor to a massively popular console hence gamers actually know it exists. GC was mostly invisible in it's gen. I didn't really notice it was around till Resident Evil became a temporary exclusive


If that were true it wouldn't have fallen on its face right out of the gate like it did.  The problem with this notion is that the wii virtually disappeared off the face of the earth in 2010 leaving sony and microsoft to fight over the market and it seems to have hurt nintendo's brand recognition.  Add poor marketing, the bad choice in name, underestimating HD development time and costs, inferior specs with a bad price point for those specs, well, hindsight and all that.
