I would argue the console itself had a ton of problems beyond the marketing; brutal game droughts, an unappealing central gimmick, lack of third party support, etc. The marketing was definitely terrible, but it wasn't the system's only issue. I owned a Wii U myself and it was pretty miserable a lot of the time with only like 4-5 worthwhile games coming out per year with months of nothing in between. |
The first party offering was top notch, there's a reason why almost all the Wii U exclusives ended up on the Switch after all, but yeah the 3rd party library was one of the worst.
