Nintendo is screwing those who bought a Wii U

Was the Wii-U really your first console ever? It must have certainly been your first Nintendo machine because the support for SNES - N64 - GC and Wii all dropped like a rock when their successor consoles were on the way,

It's not the consumers fault in my opinion. Consumers should not be forced to study what Nintendo did in the past before buying their new console they're selling. Nintendo did an awful job with Wii U. It's Nintendo's fault. Even considering Nintendo's past, Wii U is one of their worst consoles ever, maybe the worst. It lacks some of Nintendo's own franchises and it was dead one year before the release of the NS. Wii U is horrible, no one could predict that some years ago.

[Raises hand] I predicted it!  I predicted it would be crap!

Seriously, OK, consumers don't "research" the product they are buying... So whatever assumptions they make out of ignorance is OK?
How does that work though, because different ignorant consumers can make different unfounded assumptions which are mutually incompatable.
And I find this line of thinking strange, because it only makes sense for consumers who had never owned a Nintendo console previously.
Of course, Nintendo fucked up with Wii U.  Plenty of people called it from the beginning, but fact is: companies fuck up sometimes.  Deal with it.
