I still honestly personally like it better than the Wii.
Mario Kart 8 was better than Mario Kart Wii.
Smash U was better than Smash Brawl.
NSMBU was better than NSMB Wii.
DKC: TF was better than DKC Returns.
Plus going to HD was a large, tangiable jump, Wii was just a GameCube with a different controller a lot of (mostly mediocre) mini-game/shovelware titles.
Wouldn't surprise me if Breath of the Wild is better than both Skyward Sword and Twilight Princess (which is really a GameCube game).
Plus there was a surprising amount of new things on the Wii U ... Mario Maker, Splatoon, Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta, Captain Toad, Wonderful 101, LEGO City.
Wii brought back Punch-Out!, Sin & Punishment, and Excite!, but Wii U brought back Pikmin, Yoshi, and Star Fox.
Even in third party support, I'd say Zombi U, Rayman, Call of Duty: BLOPS2, Batman: Arkham City, Assassin's Creed 3/IV, Watch Dogs, Deus Ex, Tekken Tag, Need For Speed, are just from a *quality* standpoint as good if not better than the best Wii third party games. 100 million units doesn't mean a whole lot when it doesn't translate to better content for the player.
Don't get me wrong, I have several big issues with the system and Nintendo made a lot of stupid decisions with it, but honestly I think I enjoyed it more than Wii. The main things that really blew me away on Wii were the two Galaxy games and Xenoblade I guess ...? But Mario 3D World, Splatoon, and Mario Kart 8 more than hold their own with that trio.
