Is the Wii U the worst console of all time?(OP clarification)

GameCube first party is overrated.

Mario 3D World >>> Sunshine.

Like seriously take off the nostalgia glasses with Sunshine, it's a terrible Mario game with bloated level design all set on a tropical island (who the hell thought a Mario game with all tropical themed levels was a good idea?), that had camera glitches and bugs up the wazoo and the back end of the game was piss poor.

Splatoon >>> Pikmin

These were the so-called "new IP" of the GameCube ... I'm sorry, Splatoon is way better. It's a far better game and truly the next great Nintendo IP. Not only that but Wii U has Pikmin 3 as well.

Mario Kart 8 >>> Mario Kart: Double Dash

Double Dash had a pathetic number of tracks, MK8 has far more content.

Smash U = Smash Melee

Smash Melee was the one big IP Nintendo got right on the GCN, but Smash U matches it IMO.

DKC: Tropical Freeze > DK: Jungle Beat

EAD Tokyo made a good effort here, but a "real" DKC game with actual controls the return of David Wise trumps a spin-off DK game with bongo controls.

If Zelda U is better than Wind Waker, then the Wii U has the GameCube beat in many major Nintendo IP.

you're crazy, some of those opinions are extremely subjective. in terms of scores and popularity almost none of the opinions you put on those Wii U games being better than their Gamecube counterparts are correct

both sales wise and rating wise you're off 

the Wii U has some solid titles but they have a weak Mario installment (that's the reality, it's not even traditional 3D and therefore much less loved), a remake of Wind Waker (and no improving the graphics doesn't magically get tons of points, it's not a hard thing to do), and Pikmin is a totally different type of game than Splatoon so that is just a bizarre comparison. if anything it shows that the Wii U has such a limited library that you DONT have titles available to compare appropriately with even the Gamecube

the Gamecube has a great library and the only thing weak about it was sales. highly considered system in reflection by most people, it had good specs for its time, all genre of games besides maybe shooters, and a controller that made sense

 

obviously the Wii U is not even close to the worst system ever. Jaguar had NO library and this is coming from someone who has owned a majority of its library through time. Saturn was very one dimensional

currently I would probably compare the Wii U to the Dreamcast in terms of library, not great, not a ton of releases, its rather ehh
