They called it the Wii U.

The N3DS made like Kirby and sucked up all their good games.

Gimmicky Console with a name that confused normies into thinking it was a Wii Addon, Lack of GOOD Third Party because of gimmicks, and an overall lackluster library that only consists of titles we've seen before and a few new things like Splatoon.

Stupid name and delaying their entire launch library for over a year.
