Nintendo tells Wii owners that Wii U isn’t just an upgrade in new message

Believe it or not, there are quite a few (to put it mildly) Wii owners that aren’t really sure what a Wii U is. Some are under the misguided impression that the hardware is nothing more than an upgrade or add-on for the Wii.

One way in which Nintendo is looking to clarify things for consumers is through new messaging. On the Wii, users have started to receive a notification from the Big N stating that the Wii is “not just an upgrade – it’s an entirely new system”.

This is just one piece of the puzzle. What else will Nintendo do to inform consumers that the Wii U is something completely new?
