It wasn't a bad system; it just failed to catch on because Nintendo blew their wad marketing the original Wii to people who couldn't give a shit less about console gaming, so when they came out with a new, completely separate system with almost the same fucking name -- without, for instance, "Super" thrown in there to distinguish it from its predecessor -- people just assumed that it was a tablet peripheral for the original Wii. It's also really problematic to name a gaming system after a line from Kung-Pow: Enter the Fist, Nintendo. Jesus Christ.
The wiiu had a bad marketing job. Shit that was 2012 election. Never mind.
I don't know how I confused the November of being drunk in trailer parks with cosplay nerds and the November being drunk watching Cubs fans being a mess.
This is 100% true and I saw Hamilton in Chicago during that week.
And people didn't buy enough WiiUs.
Could you elaborate on the WiiU bit?
it was a lame public prototype of the switch that was marketed like shit and no one bought them
