GCN has an arguably better library, was much more powerful for the time (WiiU isn't "quite powerful for a Nintendo console") and didn't rely on any real gimmick. Anyway more on topic probably not, don't see wjy they would. Maybe 1 more but not after they have switched to hybrid consoles. The market doesn't seem to want that from them and it doesn't make sense to keep making them if nobody will buy them. Handhelds are getting to the point now where running upscaled versions of their games in a TV is a perfectly fine gaming experience. Nintendo have the handheld market on lock so I don't see why they don't offer t more resources into that market while making that the way to play their games on your TV at the same time. |
I did see the Wii U as more of a return to form after the original Wii. The Wii U transitioned from standard/enhanced definition of the Wii(which supported 480P via component at best) to full 1080P via HDMI. The Wii U also supported better online functionality and at least was in a similar realm of power compared to Xbox One/PS4, where the Wii was a generation behind the PS3/Xbox 360. Gamecube did have a far better library and 3rd party support for sure and was more powerful at the time no doubt.
