Can't say really, as hardware and games weren't the reason for its failure. The uber casual audience Nintendo captured with the Wii didn't see the point in buying what was perceived to be a $300 Wii peripheral. Just botched marketing to a non-gaming audience who bought their previous system. More power wouldn't have mattered if people thought they're only buying an extension of what they already had.
