Wii U

The Wii U, code named Project Café, is an eighth generation home console that came out in late 2012 by Nintendo. It introduces brand new games to play with its new tablet-like controller. You can play with or without the TV on with the new system. The controller also acts as a handheld for playing Wii U games, which is a nice bonus. The Wii U can play both the new titles and all Wii games in the library. However, Nintendo GameCube games are incompatible. It was announced at E3 2011 and was released on November 18, 2012 for the US, the 30th for Europe and Australia, and December 8 in Japan.
The Wii U features the Nintendo e-Shop previously included on the Nintendo 3DS. The e-Shop includes downloadable content, updates, original downloadable titles (indie games) and Virtual Console re-releases. As of April 2015, the Virtual Console includes titles from the NES, SNES, Nintendo 64, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, and Wii systems. It was discontinued in early 2017 due to poor sales, similar to how the Nintendo GameCube was discontinued in early 2007 due to poor sales.
