Re: Feature: Wii U Vs. Switch - How Did Those Nintendo Hardware Reveal Trailers Compare?

@The-Chosen-one Me too. When I saw the E3 reveal of the Wii U, I was quickly interested in the console and attempted to get one, but i couldn't (I had no job at the time lol😅). I was probably one of the few people to understand that it is actually a new console rather than a controller for the Wii . However came post-2012, I was worried when the Wii U was struggling with sales and when promising new games like Wind Waker HD, Super Mario 3D World, Mario Kart 8, and Super Smash Bros for Wii U began to appear on the horizon, I was like "these games will save the Wii U". But it wasn't enough. And I was getting annoyed with people saying "the Wii U will fail" or "Nintendo is doomed" but came 2015-16, I had to face the fact (well at least for the former opinion that everyone was gossiping about) and I was anticipating for the Switch reveal, previously known as the NX.

Now that I have the Switch, it's safe to say that the Switch's marketing and success is something that the Wii U could've been, had Nintendo chose to be a little more discreet and in their marketing.
