Nintendo's desperate attempt to copy Apple's iPad in order to get more casuals on board yet it failed epically. The Wii u is one of Nintendo's biggest failures and anyone who disagrees is a delusional Nintendrone. The Wii u was declared dead on February 20, 2013 when the PS4 curb-stomped and annihilated it from relevancy.
Nintendrone: "Yo man, are you getting that Wii u?"

Guy: "Why the hell would I buy that iPad piece of dead crap when the PS4 killed it already? Get a real next gen console you loser."

Nintendo's eighth generation home console, successor to the Wii, released in 2012
the Wii mostly targeted casual gamers, but the Wii U will target both casual and hardcore gamers
the controller looks like a traditional controller but has a big touch screen, almost like a tablet
it is said to be 50% more powerful than the PS3, but the power is likely to get over taken by the next PlayStation and Xbox, and showcased games of current generation
it will not be capable of playing DVD or Blu-Rays, but is backwards compatible with Wii games

the console itself looks like the Xbox 360 and Wii had a child
the Wii U; terrible name, but nonetheless...

Finally, Zelda, Mario, Metroid and Super Smash Bros. all in HD!

A: The Wii U? more like Pee Yew!
B: lol, epic fail

An 8th-generation video game console announced in 2011, and released in 2012. While it may seem that it competes with the Xbox One and PS4 directly, Nintendo has stated themselves that this is not true.

What separates this from other video game consoles the unique controller: the Wii U Gamepad. This controller has a 6" touch-screen built into it for unique/new ways to play video games. Surprisingly, it also is very comfortable. It does not use motion controls at all.

While the Wii U is more powerful than the 7th generation's video game consoles, it is not as powerful as the PS4 and Xbox One (Which is why Nintendo decides not to directly compete with them). Also, while the Xbox One and PS4 use X68, PC-like processors, the Wii U doesn't, making it harder to code games for both the Wii U and any other 8th-generation console.

Lastly, the Wii U is Nintendo's first console capable of 1080p gaming. Also, the Wii U is backwards-compatible with the Wii's games.
The Wii U has a unique controller that separates it from other consoles.

The Wii U is Nintendo's first HD console.
