Wii U just oozed low quality jank. From the gamepad to the hardware and the software line up, it felt like a Fisher's Price console for toddlers.

I'm still really glad I own one though. It is the ultimate Nintendo box: it plays NES, SNES, N64 and tons of other retro games via VC, it plays Wii games and supports all peripherals, it plays Wii U games (the handful that are worth playing anyway). Considering the Wii is probably one of the best consoles ever made with a huge and amazing library, the BC saved the Wii U from being a total disaster.
