Problem is.....Gamepad is NOT a tablet. And Wii U's biggest problem has remained NOT the controller, but horrible advertising in NA, and not pushing the console the right way, which led to third party game drought. As well as Nintendo themselves mishandling their own development allocation, so that they have been consistently late on their own Wii U titles at times. Wii U could have been a huge success, and for the most part, in spite a lack of retail games, I personally still really enjoy it. But they definitely dropped the ball.
It can STILL turn around a bit. But there's no way at this point it's not going to probably come in "third place", sadly. The thing needs a 2015 price drop though, for real.
