So Nintendo should have made an EyeToy instead of the WiiU? Makes sense.

No they did the correct thing. The reality just is that pre-2010 the Wii was unique and special but after Kinect and Move came out it really wasn't. Just like Brain Training isn't really special anymore because there's like 20 apps on your phone you can get for free that approximate the same thing. 

Kinect Sports was relatively fun and polished, so was the Sony one, you can't really say "well only Wii Sports was fun". 

I think that had an impact on Wii sales for sure. Why buy two systems if you really don't have to. 

You can't really stop other companies from copying such ideas eventually though and having their own polished product, it's simply a matter of spending money. 

So even with 20:20 hindsight, you still think WiiU was the right move. Fair enough.

Also, it isn't just Brain Training that can be done on other ecosystems. Minecraft, PUBG, CoD, Pokemon, FIFA and Fortnite are all on smartphones too.
