Iterative consoles with BC rarely fail. It will be a huge success I think.

The wii u was one of Nintendo's biggest failures and had fantastic compatibility with wii as it had the same hardware underneath for compatibility. The dual screen element of the wii u I think the original wii gpu is used for the gamepad independent graphics. The tri core powerpc cpu would downclock and operate in single CPU mode for full wii compatibility. You had a much more powerful console that could also do full wii hardware mode without emulation.

But lets be honest, the wii u was one of the ugliest consoles every made, the controller looked like like it was modeled after one of those toys babies play with.
