Nah, I think that claim that consumers were confused and thought that the Wii U was an add-on for the original Wii instead of a new system were greatly exagerated. The Wii U didn't do well for a number of reasons and I doubt that confusion played much of a factor, many found the tablet controller awkward to use, it's price was too high for it's specs (mainly because the tablet controller added almost $100 to it's price), Nintendo released the system too early and it suffered from low software support for much of it's first year as a result, the fact that several 3rd party developers/publishers decided to not support the Wii U because it was too hard to develop for.

As for the Xbox One, I don't see the name confusing that many people, the fact that it's the word "One" and not the number "1" should clue people in that it's not the first Xbox console. The only negative that the Xbox One shares with the Wii U is the fact that much like the tablet controller, some people find Kinect awkard to use and don't like the fact that they have to pay extra for it. However, the fact that the Xbox One's specs are still as powerful or more powerful than an equally priced PC, and the fact that the Xbox One has plenty of 1st and 3rd party software coming it's way in it's first year, should mean that it'll do much better than the Wii U did it's first year.

It doesn't say on his account, Phil Spencer just said that he would be giving away Ryse, Max, Powerstar Gold, Live Subs and more, He was doing it earlier posting scanable codes onto his twitter so you will probably have to follow him untill he post one then quickly scan it with Kinect :P

Yeah Ikr, His also 100% Ryse which means he got 100 already ¬.¬ Also for his Steam account he has over 127 hours on borderlands 2 Lol
