    @PastaRhythm @nintendo The PS2 was such a juggernaut and the GameCube was seen as more of the same from the N64, but with smaller gimmicky discs. Plus the Xbox dropped, and online computer gaming with broadband T1 connections really took off. The Wii U was poorly marketed and poorly understood. Had they given it a different name to differentiate completely from the Wii it probably would’ve done better.
