How to It having 100 m Wii u off the shop: Times "new controller" was said: 0 Times "new console" was said: 12 Who did do that idea of puttng new controller That Guy im sure Isnt working now for Nintendo
I mean, I find it hilarious. I keep up with game news and what not, and I remember at the time being so confused. I was going all over the place trying to figure out if this was just a controller or a console. I don't think it was until a few months after E3 that Nintendo finally showed the danged system, thus confirming it as a console.
"yo now u can draw on the new controller also u can play on it instead of the tv new controller epic" like bro it's not even advertising the console lol~
Im pretty sure alot of parents thought their children didn't need another wii, or they prob thought it was a new controller that isn't compatible with the og wii :/
Wow, having owned the Wii U for over a year now (and loving every minute of it) I can see why this trailer confused the crap out of the "casual" market. It's totally advertised as a NEW CONTROLLER...over and over and over and over. Not as a new console. What a bad trailer.
Fletcher The Pup, yeah it made everyone confused that the Wii U Gamepad was a new controller for the Wii! Nintendo should’ve just put in “New Controller for New Console” instead! Or just be more specific with this trailer instead!
@@bikachupanther2147 the tv remote is actually surprisingly useful. You can easily turn on your console and tv and bring it to the right input with just one controller
emptyspotlight the viewing of the television screen trough the gamepad, the projection of a picture from the gamepad onto the television screen trough swiping . The Zelda tech demo . The range trough a door and the new super Mario bros u( mii ) tech demo
The tilting function and the video calls not to be forgotten, also I’m pretty sure that’s not how you play baseball on Wii sports club and neither did I see the boardgame in the switch
"New controller. New controller. New controller. New controller. Oh by the way, we neglected to mention it's not an add-on for the Wii, it's a whole new console. New controller. New controller." Please Nintendo, I loved the Wii U for what it was but don't make the same mistakes with marketing again.
not you Not to mention the Switch ditches all the stupid gimmicks of the Wii and Wii U. The design changes everything. The power of consoles like the Xbox One, on the go. Big games, like Skyrim, in a nice comfy tablet. That alone is causing a lot of Xbone and PS4 users making a switch. The custom made Nvidia Tegra allows it to keep up with this generation, and it's ability to take it on the go also changes the handhelds. This console is a gamechanger.
"Switch from TV to the New Controller" "Draw on the New Controller" "Play only on the New Controller" "" Use Motion to Control with the New Controller" New Controller this, New Controller that. Later... Nintendo: Why people don't understand? This is a new console!!!
I think Nintendo assumed that because the Wii U has off tv ability, people would see it as a new console because the original wii couldn't do that. But saying "new controller" and not even mentioning "new console" is very idotic. Instead they should have referred to it as "the gamepad controller for the new console". Now THAT would worked perfectly.
They didn't even show the "new console". And all the games shown (except for the Zelda one) looked like they were Wii games. There was no way of asuming it was a new console, neither from the messages on screen or the game's footage. So sad :(
jon2nson Yeah. I honestly don't see anything bad with it. Maybe because people like to stick with the other consoles. But this one delivers a lot of new and different things which I think is pretty cool.

I wanted one back in 2013. Since my mum thought it was just a new controller she thought it wouldn't be that expensive so she agreed. She asked for the Wii U and they brought out a Wii U inside the box. She said, "Oh no I just want the new controller not a Wii as well we already have one". The employee and my mum did some talking and we didn't end up getting one. At least I have a switch now, 4 years after...

@@DjVader112 nah, this was good design for the time. It was instantly recognizable as nintendo and not other companies because it looked similar to the wii.
Sir SpeedyCat That's not really my problem with it. My problem with it is that these features of the gamepad that they are pushing in this trailer are neraly useless and are just gimmicks. Do you really need to show that cute parrot video to your relatives? Do you really want to play that black-white puck thingy on it? Do you really want to browse the internet on it? Do you really want to make video calls with it when you have skype, discord, mumble and whatnot, you know, the applications you can use WHILE playing? The answer to all of this is no.
I understand why it failed. They are literally showing a bunch of Wii games controlled with a tablet, so you could be forgiven for thinking it was just an add on for the Wii.

Gee... I initially thought the Wii U was a Wii add-on _and_ portable because Nintendo kept advertising "off TV play" for the "new controller." *All hail the superior Switch advertising~!!* :'D
The most underrated console I have never seen. I was one of those legendary people who bought a Wii U and I have no regrets I had such a greats times on Pikmin Splatoon Mario Kart Lego City undervover Wii Party U and lots of other games.
BACK IN 2011 I THOUGHT IT WAS: Portable New controller Basically a ds with one screen. Take it anywhere. Controller was the console. Wow I was all wrong.
They kept saying "New Controller", if i never knew about the Wii U and i saw this trailer I would've thought this was legitimately a new controller for the Wii.
All nintendo had to do is say ''Look, heres our new system. Check out the games we have!!!'' instead of ''look what this controller that will confuse the customers''
Or used a name with anything BUT "Wii" in it, that would've have helped a ton as well. They really did a combination of fuckups, such a shame for gamers and developers.
Guys. The Wii U is not a bad console at all. It is actually much better then the xbox One and PS4. It has more exclusives and better games on it then just Halo and COD and GTA ... Obviously it is not as powerful as either of those however, look at all the games that have been released and will be released on it. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, The Wonderful 101, Mario Kart 8, Pikmin 3 and then SSB4, both the Zelda Wiii U and Hyrule Warriors, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Splatoon, Bayonetta 2, Mario Maker. These are all promising titles with different varieties of gameplay. What do you get on xbox and PS4? 1st person shooter after 1st person shooter. (obviously slight exaggeration and there are some good games on both of those consoles, but no where near as many on the Wii U). So stop bashing the Wii U because it's getting all the games you want.
Okay I managed to read every single one of these comments, this is going nowhere. When a person leaves the argument another takes their place, just as angry as the last these wii u fanboys are seriously annoying, it is a flawed system. I don't want to see it fail but it IS failing, which system is better is subjective. Now there were also people arguing mute points against the wii u, it being childish or every game being a remake Being the main 2. For the childish argument, the wii u is trying to be a family system, something that sits in the living room, that's why because they want younger people to be able to play on it. About everything being a remake, this is pretty much true and is one of the faults (a big one) but they do kept things fresh (for the most part.) Also about people insulting Destiny, the recent dlc have been MAJOR improvements and have really shown the potential of the game. I want wii u to succeed, but I don't think it will. Side note: saying xbone just makes you look more like a fanboy also stop labeling everyone with an (even if strong and hostile) opinion as a troll
Smash1123 I have ps4 it's the worth double the money it has better graphics than xbox one and the indies on it are amazing i know pc is better in every aspect but if you're a only console guy who really wants to play indies ps4 is your machine boy
***** Oh, everything this did wrong the Switch trailer did right. They didn't mention a controller without mentioning a console, so that's the first thing. Another is that they finally figured out young adults play games, and they are getting third party. Nintendo is doing good.
Nin10d0 Rulz DA VV0rlD You do realize I called it the NX before the official name or trailer was announced, right? I would have had no way to know it was called the Switch at the time I posted that comment.
"Enjoy 100 minute Battery-Power with the new controller". Only now, right before the NX Trailer is coming up, I realize how utterly stupid this Trailer was. Focusing solely on a single Gimmick of the new System without featuring the Console and it's Power. There were many downsides when it comes to the Wii U Gamepad. I think, a lot of features showed in this Trailer aren't even possible now. And the Gamepad feels much more uncomfortable and chunky compared to the Gamepad featured in the Trailer. This was Nintendos first mistake includng calling the Console Wii U.
Exactly. I realize only now how badly this trailer was focused on the "new controller". The console itself is barely visible. No wonder the market was confused.
i know now a see why the people tough that this was a new controller for the wii and that with the switch they tried to tell that is a totally new console.
to be honest i called it the wii hd, but i was busy playing with the Xbox 360, now that xbox one practically failed to the hype and Microsoft pivot to pc, i eagerly await the new "home gaming system" so im hoping that we will see the sexy beast of the NX.
@@yaboisanic2922 i mean, that's false, I broke my gamepad and was able to replace it. there's a seperate setting for syncing a new gamepad to the console.
Wii U was awesome, had a lot of great games, amazing ports of old games and paved the way for the Switch. But even I have to admit the marketing for it could have been handled a lot better. It was marketed as an add-on to the Wii and not a brand new console, the fact it has Wii in its name confused a lot of people and even that it’s shown playing Wii games must be head scratching, considering you can play Wii games, just without the controller. I’m so glad the Switch fixed that marketing train wreck, but I feel sad that the Wii U couldn’t realise its true potential.

New controller
Basically a ds with one screen.
Take it anywhere.
Controller was the console.
Wow I was all wrong.
You can take it anywhere, as long as you have the control deck plugged in close to it.
+White Knight 5 I meant a portable controller. Sorry!
That's the NX lol.
I'm gonna come back here once the nx is shown and see how close you were to guessing the nx lol
+White Knight 5 hi
All of this would have been solved if they changed the “U” to a 2
And replaced, “new controller” with “new console”
No. This is truly “Switch“!
Or just “nintendo u”
Trust me, Wii 2 would’ve been a disaster. At least Wii U sold more than 10 million.
There was already a Wii 2
2:47 that wasn’t a normal reaction
They kept saying "New Controller", if i never knew about the Wii U and i saw this trailer I would've thought this was legitimately a new controller for the Wii.
You know, a chess board is only like $13
You mean SNES board?
thats reversi
1:58 This didnt age well.
Was that even a real accessory?
@@estignatic I'm pretty sure he's talking about iwata..
HAHAHAHA
Um iwata didn't die from a sniper so.
What, any video depicting iwata hasnt aged well? That makes no sense
This got 13 Million views, meaning that everyone who bought a Wii U has watched this video.
It's not the Wii U Gamepad, It's the Wii U New Controller!
Also, still no checkers
that was reversi (othello), bruh
YAYA
lol
I love that
This video nearly got the same amount of views as the Wii us sale units
is this a new controller for the wii ?
AymanoS hahahaha
1. It’s not new AT ALL
2. It’s a console my dude.
AYMANOS No, it's the Wii 2, that has its own controller

Baseball commentator: “SWING AND A MISS!”
Turns out he wasn’t commentating about baseball...
underrated comment
I'm watching this in July 2016 and now I understand why the Wii U gone wrong
Yeah.
They only advertised the controller! People thought it was a controller damn lol
+Ali Mohammad (Cobberman games) it also didn't help that the games look similar to there predicecors on the Wii
You are absolutely right! Another good point
still better than the xbox one
Instead of saying “the new controller”, they should have said “the new console”
They should only say gamepad.
2:35 this guy has awesome left hand stabilization
it could be Michael J. Fox's comeback
lol💩😿
Schmevil i think he actually lost his hand and that one is just a robot part with stabilization
left handed people exist
If you never have a Wii U you would never understand how amazing the console was
All nintendo had to do is say ''Look, heres our new system. Check out the games we have!!!'' instead of ''look what this controller that will confuse the customers''
Or used a name with anything BUT "Wii" in it, that would've have helped a ton as well. They really did a combination of fuckups, such a shame for gamers and developers.
But at the beginning they only had new super mario brod
3:12 big mistake not showing the console with the gamepad
I agree I want to punch the guy who made this trailer
@@sudd32x14 was made by NINTENDO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Irk
those 'analog' sticks look straight up like 3DS circle pad
Still better than joycons. Joycons sticks are trash. My right one is in repair for the third time since easter
They changed them to real analog stick and surprisingly the wiiU gamepad plays and feels so comfortable, it is perfectly designed for the hands.
Yes!
@@tHEMADGUY1000 exactly
@@tHEMADGUY1000 Yeah, It's very comfortable especially, playing Splatoon.
The Wii U was underrated tho.
Guys. The Wii U is not a bad console at all. It is actually much better then the xbox One and PS4. It has more exclusives and better games on it then just Halo and COD and GTA ... Obviously it is not as powerful as either of those however, look at all the games that have been released and will be released on it. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, The Wonderful 101, Mario Kart 8, Pikmin 3 and then SSB4, both the Zelda Wiii U and Hyrule Warriors, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Splatoon, Bayonetta 2, Mario Maker. These are all promising titles with different varieties of gameplay. What do you get on xbox and PS4? 1st person shooter after 1st person shooter. (obviously slight exaggeration and there are some good games on both of those consoles, but no where near as many on the Wii U). So stop bashing the Wii U because it's getting all the games you want.
Okay I managed to read every single one of these comments, this is going nowhere. When a person leaves the argument another takes their place, just as angry as the last these wii u fanboys are seriously annoying, it is a flawed system. I don't want to see it fail but it IS failing, which system is better is subjective. Now there were also people arguing mute points against the wii u, it being childish or every game being a remake Being the main 2. For the childish argument, the wii u is trying to be a family system, something that sits in the living room, that's why because they want younger people to be able to play on it. About everything being a remake, this is pretty much true and is one of the faults (a big one) but they do kept things fresh (for the most part.) Also about people insulting Destiny, the recent dlc have been MAJOR improvements and have really shown the potential of the game.
I want wii u to succeed, but I don't think it will.
Side note: saying xbone just makes you look more like a fanboy also stop labeling everyone with an (even if strong and hostile) opinion as a troll
I said that they keep fresh I meant they change it up but keep the same characters
Also cod, halo, blood borne, and gta aren't the only games on Xbox and ps4, Assassins creed, batman, the last of us, bioshock are some of these
Well it seems we can't agree ;)
Smash1123 I have ps4 it's the worth double the money it has better graphics than xbox one and the indies on it are amazing i know pc is better in every aspect but if you're a only console guy who really wants to play indies ps4 is your machine boy
0:27 - Oh, the irony.
Still waiting for that Wii U Zapper!
Same here.
Bro! I'm still waiting on friends to FaceTime
+ElliottBros1 Most of those things got dropped from Wii U when it came out.
+ElliottBros1 they plan to pack it in with a game called shoot mii
+MarutoFighter The FaceTime exists, it's WiiU chat.
This thing is now officially a decade old.
reminds me of when I tried to buy the "Wii U Controller" at walmart a few years back..
Lol
lmao!.
Which is pretty much what everyone thought the Wii U was
hahahah lol
And tomorrow, 5 years later, out comes the NX announcement trailer. 11 hours away now, and it will be about the same length as this one.
And now, 18 hours later, I'm watching this because I'm bored :P and I wanted to see how this compared to the Switch trailer.
***** Oh, everything this did wrong the Switch trailer did right. They didn't mention a controller without mentioning a console, so that's the first thing. Another is that they finally figured out young adults play games, and they are getting third party. Nintendo is doing good.
Nott Joey, absolutely. I'm convinced Switch will be a success!
Nin10d0 Rulz DA VV0rlD You do realize I called it the NX before the official name or trailer was announced, right? I would have had no way to know it was called the Switch at the time I posted that comment.
Nott Joey you posted the comment in the same day when the Switch trailer was released. Also, grammar.
"Enjoy 100 minute Battery-Power with the new controller".
Only now, right before the NX Trailer is coming up, I realize how utterly stupid this Trailer was. Focusing solely on a single Gimmick of the new System without featuring the Console and it's Power. There were many downsides when it comes to the Wii U Gamepad. I think, a lot of features showed in this Trailer aren't even possible now. And the Gamepad feels much more uncomfortable and chunky compared to the Gamepad featured in the Trailer. This was Nintendos first mistake includng calling the Console Wii U.
MonsieurAufziehvogel Yeah, I'm sure at the very least revealing the console itself should avoid as much confusion as this trailer caused.
Exactly. I realize only now how badly this trailer was focused on the "new controller". The console itself is barely visible. No wonder the market was confused.
i know now a see why the people tough that this was a new controller for the wii and that with the switch they tried to tell that is a totally new console.
"100-minute battery power"
That's less than 2 hours lol
So you're going to ignore the virtual boy?
Nintendo was fr ahead of its time it’s crazy
Am I the only one who didn't think this was a wii accessory?
Same! Tell me about it! When I saw this I freaked out coz I already knew it was a console!! :p
no. i did not think it is one to
I knew it was a new Nintendo system
I can see why people thought that. They talked so much about the controller, and not even the console as a whole.
to be honest i called it the wii hd, but i was busy playing with the Xbox 360, now that xbox one practically failed to the hype and Microsoft pivot to pc, i eagerly await the new "home gaming system" so im hoping that we will see the sexy beast of the NX.
Who came here after watching NX reveal
omg yes xD...wanted to see the marketin they did in the trailer and the views it got
Lixouo same
Lixouo i
Lixouo me
Lixouo me
I once tried playing the Wii u in a car ride thinking I could still playing my game 💀
I once tried taking my Wii U gamepad to someone's house who also had a wii u, then I realised you couldn't connect more than 1 gamepad to a console.
I once accidentally broke the gamepads screen, And realized the gamepad couldn't be replaced.
Dude this was such a terrible console...😂
I once accidentally accidentaled
@@yaboisanic2922 i mean, that's false, I broke my gamepad and was able to replace it. there's a seperate setting for syncing a new gamepad to the console.
If they talked about the console and not just the controller this could have been a great successor to the wii
2019 anyone?

Right here
Was recommended
I’m a wii u owner and this commercial was just ok...
Not me i'm from 3019
0:11 hey, *v s a u c e*
Who
Man I can't wait for the Wii U! I hope it has Super Mario Galaxy 4
nice joke
ramensquid no...
ramensquid ya :v
I love how 40% of these features didn't even make it into the console
*90
I'm sure they did, it's just that no one ever used them or played the games or apps that used them
Including the Wii U Zapper
Wii U was awesome, had a lot of great games, amazing ports of old games and paved the way for the Switch. But even I have to admit the marketing for it could have been handled a lot better. It was marketed as an add-on to the Wii and not a brand new console, the fact it has Wii in its name confused a lot of people and even that it’s shown playing Wii games must be head scratching, considering you can play Wii games, just without the controller. I’m so glad the Switch fixed that marketing train wreck, but I feel sad that the Wii U couldn’t realise its true potential.
much like their 'DS' models
What about the virtual boy the virtual boy crashed everywhere
2:35 There is no way that person can hold the gamepad perfectly still with one hand
0:28 Nintendo was *ALREADY PLANNING THE NINTENDO SWITCH*
“Get More Detail with the New Controller” sounds like you buy the controller to improve your Wii’s power
What sense does that make?
@@helmi5045 to many, a lot since that’s what a lot saw it as
@@helmi5045 when they first showed it off gaming experts didn’t even know if it was a new console or a controller either
@@jace.r sorry but Nintendo said before and after the e3 presentation that it’s gonna be a new console
@@helmi5045 k
It's funny because my father thought this was an add on, and I kept having to tell him it's not.
Insult to injury: a Switch ad came up before this
I just like how nobody’s noticed that the the prototype has 2 circle pads
People noticed...
Looks like a wii emulator but in hd shadow
well people did and complained, thats why they changed them to real sticks
It's strange how nobody mentions it
@@TheFlumeUnplugged come on! Circle pads where underrated
Not once did they show the actual console...

I like to ground people and the switch doesn't work like that but u don't see any one pointing that out
Nelson Rateau The Switch is already being mass produced so it must work like that
