I said months before the Wii U's release that it had a lot of potential with strategy games and with complex RPG games which need far more buttons than provided by standard layout controllers. These are two areas where mouse & keyboard typically annihilate consoles. With WoW, for example, I had damn near the entire keyboard mapped to a skill or gear-set and I wouldn't even want to play Fallout or Elder Scrolls without my hotkeys filled to the brim.

I was actually kind of excited for the Wii U based on potential. Alas, very little of it ever materialized.
