It's obviously not the worst of all time, there are far more notorious consoles that litter the dustbin of history that are more than deserving of that title.
The Wii U however is the worst console of the modern gaming era, and the worst console overall since the SEGA Saturn in terms of mismanagement. Nintendo made so many mistakes with their latest console, from the once again deliberate gimping of the hardware and putting to much emphasis on the gimmicky tablet game pad, to the very name and branding of the console itself.
And then of course there's the software... or should I say, total lack of software. The Wii U's library both in terms of quantity and quality makes the N64's and GC's look like the PS2's in comparison. 3rd party support is nonexistent, and the 1st and 2nd party titles are a far cry from the offerings that the N64, GC and even the Wii received. And with Nintendo's biggest franchises like Zelda and Metroid now seemingly being held back for the next generation of hardware, it looks as though the Wii U already has both feet in the grave and we're barely 2-1/2 years into its lifecycle.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
