Top 10 reasons why Wii U failed...
#10: Bad name.
#9: Inferior online network compared to XBL / PSN.
#8: Lacking key Nintendo franchises; no Metroid, no true 3D Mario a la 64 or Galaxy, and no Zelda until it was dead already.
#7: Terrible name.
#6: Marketing was horse shit.
#5: "Tablet" controller sucked all around, nothing but a desperate gimmick to try to keep the "casual" audience around that had already moved on to actual mobile devices.
#4: God awful name.
#3: Underpowered and overpriced.
#2: Complete lack of 3rd party support; made N64's and GCN's support look amazing by comparison.
#1: Did I mention how horrendous the name of this console is? Whoever gave that name the green light should be buried in a landfill of Wii Us, Ouyas, Pippins, Gizmondos, N-Gages and Game.coms.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
