WiiU's issues were software related, software is how a gaming console reaches its audience. No one would have been confused about WiiU if it was launched with BoTW or Mario Kart 8 because those games can't be confused as Wii games. Even if people thought it was just a tablet, consumers would have still had to go to the store to purchase the new tablet and would have learned it's a new, high definition (HD) Wii console. Software would have solved all of it's issues because you are fullying yourself if you think marketing and slapping a screen on a controller are that unappealing. You can only market the games that are available and WiiU had none and slapping a screen on the controller is hardly the wackiest thing Nintendo has every done. Long story short, if WiiU had the support that Switch got, then yes WiiU sales far better than it did. Nintendo consumers have one choice to consume Nintendo software, so WiiU getting that same benefit would have greatly helped.
