And lose big. There were people on this very site who were saying that the Wii brand would eventually fall. People didnt want to believe

I don't think anyone could reasonably have expect Nintendo to go back to Gamecube route, like they did with the Wii U, after the huge success of Wii.

Sure they did. I personally expected them to try to catch lighting in a bottle again and capatalize on another "unique" controller gimmick. Which is what they did only this time people didnt care about the pad like they cared about the Wiimote. What were other people expecting? A Wii 2? That was never gonna happen especially when sales started to dip on the original.
