Dan Adelman believes Wii U deserves to sell better, but the name is “abysmal”
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 20 Comments
Dan Adelman, Nintendo’s former head of digital content and development, has weighed in on the current status surrounding Wii U.
Responding to a fan on Ask.fm, Adelman noted that he believes the console deserves to sell better, in part due to the game’s available. However, the GamePad’s value has yet to be “justified”, and Adelman believes the Wii U name is “abysmal.”
Wii U is not selling as well as it deserves to. It has a lot to offer with great games you can’t get anywhere else. The value of the GamePad hasn’t been justified. But the name Wii U is abysmal. I think that cut sales in half right there.
