Everyone else "Yay they gave us exactly what we wanted, and a nice normal name too!" soypoint-2

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they didn't do an Xbox and call it something confusing, but I was hoping this console could have it's own identity.

I'm happy for a more powerful Switch, it sounds neat. Still, I kinda was hoping for something more... Nintendo weird.

~~Okay maybe I'm just mad because I was hoping after the Nintendo Switch that we'd be getting a Nintendo Dom and a Nintendo Sub~~

lotta, like, parents and other people on the periphery of gaming industry thought the WiiU was just an extra tablet you connected to your old Wii. Probably the sound decision here.

I thought that WiiU was the sound an ambulance makes

One time my mate's house got burgled and they stole the WiiU controller but not the actual WiiU.

In Japanese, 2 is pronounced "ni"

So it would've been the Wii Ni

I’m learning there was a WiiU today. Oh I was really busy 2012 that makes sense.
