Whether win, or just selling triple it's current lifetime sales, was there anything Nintendo could do to "save" the Wii U after launch?
I say after launch because at that point it was unclear where the Wii U was going, it actually had a good several months at the start, but later things started seesawing and it started to drop and drop until it couldn't drop anymore, forcing Nintendo to cut the price only once iirc, to make sure they didn't lose large amounts of money on consoles sold (or unsold) overtime.
But was there something Nintendo was missing? I mean it was basically the HD Wii people wanted, some nice games upfront, affordable price and one year early. Sure one could blame the commercials but that's only part of the problem as not everyone was confused if the Wii was a peripheral instead of a console, that's overexaggerated very often.
So what else was the problem? Could they find a way to fix whatever was blocking them from selling Wii U's?
