Just in case, I used DeepL translate for translate my text, but I tried to check if this text was wrote well. I hope you can understand it. Now, the thread:

Do you think the Wii U could have been a success in any way?

I think the idea of using a touchscreen was good, especially if we compare all the different types of controls and controllers we use with the Nintendo DS touchscreen. It could have been the Wii U controller, the touchscreen one. On the Nintendo DS, you can use a steering wheel to move the car left and right in a racing game, you can do various activities in WarioWare games, and you can draw on it.

If it had been touchscreen only, perhaps most of the buttons would have been used on the touchscreen and there would have been customized controls for each of those video games in many different ways. I think that making it touchscreen and with buttons like a normal joystick meant that they didn't take full advantage of it. Much of what could have been done with the touchscreen isn't used and has very boring and unnecessary uses (remember the option to add cubes in the New Super Mario Bros U level?). In fact, what's also terrible is that the Wii U touchscreen control is played separately for each Wii U console, meaning that only one player can use it instead of using several of these touchscreen joysticks to play.

I think they really messed up with the video games, but hey, I think that could have been the mistake that prevented the Wii U console from being a success. Do you think the Wii U could have been a success in some way? What do you think should have happened for the Wii U to be a success? What things would you have changed about the console before its launch?
