At this point I think most people would agree the Wii U has failed up to live up to the Wii's success. But then the question is, what exactly could Nintendo have done to follow up the success they had with the Wii? How could they reach the Wii's level a second time?

Personally I don't think they could. The Wii seemed very much a one time thing. Nintendo bet on the right technology at the right time and it paid off. They tried it with the Wii U but the technology they bet on was wrong and so it didn't catch on. Nintendo doesn't have a large number of core gamers (who are consistently there to buy consoles/games) to fall back on either like Sony/MS. So ultimately I feel as though it would have been nearly impossible for them to repeat a Wii-like phenomenon because it is like catching lightning in a bottle with the casuals. 

But that's just my opinion. What do you guys think?

Wii U is not a failure in my opinion. I love it and i think atleast 9 million other Wii U owners agree, idk about xbox one and ps4 owner, but the library for Wii U is gonna look incredible in the end of this year and probably the upcoming year, im satisfied already with m purchase and i think Wii U is gonna last until 2017 or 2018.
