    I also loved my Wii U. It’s such a shame it wasn’t more popular. I basically used it like a switch with a box that needed to be plugged in, just took the console places and anywhere with an outlet I could plug in and play on the screen. Obviously the switch is the superior console but the Wii U was a banger.

      I think the main problem with the wii-u was literally just the name

        I know a number of people who thought the Wii U was an attachment for the Wii and not a separate console so you might be right about the name.

          A guy I used to work with was convinced the whole thing was a scam. “Did his own research” and determined that all he needed was the console to upgrade his Wii. So he bought one secondhand. For his kids. Didn’t quite work out the way he had hoped. Eventually broke down and bought the pad etc.

          He was not the brightest bulb, just the type to think of himself as such.
