Does the Wii U have what it takes to be a success? Something that can compare well to the Wii’s legacy? The Dreamcast was a generational half-step, and look what happened there. On the other hand, the Xbox 360 got a year’s head start on this generation and turned that into a steady lead. If we use the Nintendo 3DS as an example, which isn’t quite fair, it’s hard to be optimistic. That was another piece of hardware designed to follow in the footsteps of an unlikely success story by tacking on one new trendy feature.
