I haven't said anything about how the Wii U will go, but TV shows and news outlets confusing the Wii U for a Wii accessory is certainly not good. But thanks for letting me know what comments you authorize.
Did I ever quote you? I think not. And even if I did, assuming any outcome for the Wii U, good or bad, is pure ignorance. (And this topic was heading in that direction.)
If people confuse the Wii U with the Wii then they need to learn to read. Assuming that the person can read numbers, the 300+ price tag should make them very aware that looking into the Wii U is the only option to take when considering spending that amount of money for a hunk of plastic.
Also, back when the Super Nintendo was released, I'm pretty sure people were confused about whether or not that was the original "Nintendo".

Yeah, let's not have any discussions. Unless it's about blaming Iwata.
It's going to take a while for you to get over that discussion, eh?
Reporters don't even know the difference between Xbox and Xbox 360. And that didn't do much to "hurt" it's sales. The mainstream media is ignorant when it comes to video games. Remember that whole Mass Effect fiasco? How about that Animal Crossing City Folk segment where they said "This (Tortimer) is the guy investigators are looking for.", basically saying the Animal characters are "real life players". An "upgrade" to an iPad didn't stop the "new" iPad from selling... But as mentioned, let's wait and see how things go... It's June folks...
Well for one the new ipad never sells concurrent with the old model in retail stores. Even on apples website you can only get the ipad 2 used. That and the consumer has been conditioned to expect a new model every year sk there is no confusion. That's and they usenew ipad when explaining it. The xbox also didn't have this problem as the orgonal xbox. Was killed and taken off of retail stores as assonance as the 360 came out due to the nivida thong.
So try using better examples please.
WAT!

Hey, I still enjoyed the show. Fallon's enthusiasm was cute.
I'm a little disappointed in the fact he said you can use it with your Wii, but whatever, he's encouraging the audience to buy the product, which is good.
Say what now?

I'm not really active here anymore. So it goes.
I just wish these sorts of shows weren't so Attention Deficit Disorder-y. They can't spend more than 5 seconds on something without moving on to something else. Really depressing.

1. Stop following me from thread to thread to argue with. I have no time and interest for that
2. If you read carefully, you would get what I was trying to get at. Those examples were good, I believe. If a new Xbox rolls out with emphasis on Kinect dont be surprised if the mainstream media pulls a "WiiU" stunt or confuse it as another type of Xbox.
I was screaming at my TV when he said it could be used on the Wii and was a handheld.

Jimmy Fallon does not follow video games. Its to be expected. Just like mainstream. Dont know why people are worried about casuals being confused. As long as you know the difference, those things shouldnt matter. Consoles are made for gamers first and the others second.
Lulz. Were the minority in the video game market. Why do you think nintendo and Microsoft E3 conferences had so much non gamer or blue ocean style games.
WAT!
