Sure, sales-wise it got it's ass kicked. But reception-wise, it's considered usually the best or second best of it's generation by most people.

The only reason it did badly was poor marketing, lack of games, and inferior hardware. However, hardware doesn't matter as much in the long run, and the PS4 and Xbone weren't much better in terms of game variety initially, and while the Wii U at least got many great exclusives eventually, most PS4 and Xbone exclusives were more varied in reception.

If you want a Nintendo console that's a real total loser and waste of space, Virtual Boy. But not the Wii U.
