Can't speak for everyone, but as someone who purchased a Wii U near launch, I've been satisfied with it. It's had my favorite iterations of Mario Kart and Smash Bros, great new surprises in Splatoon and Mario Maker, and some absolute gems in Yoshi, Tropical Freeze, Xenoblade, and Tokyo Mirage Sessions, among others. It's also been my media hub of choice, and even little things like the Gamepad remote controls have been extremely handy. Its library is certainly lacking compared to the competition, but for the types of games I enjoy, it's done more than enough to to warrant my price of entry.
That being said...I can understand the frustration as well, since consoles aren't cheap for most people. It's just that I've found time is a much scarcer commodity for me than money as I've gotten older, so the droughts haven't affected me as much as everyone else.
Honestly though, as soon as Chitoge was added to Mario Maker, I knew my console of the gen was decided.
