Of course, anyone with half a brain should know that simply doing away with the hugely successful Wii brand, at such an early stage, would be a bad business move on Nintendo’s part — because let’s face it – every major company’s main objective is to bring in revenue, and Wii delivered truckloads. Hence the cliche saying, “If it isn’t broke, don’t fix it,” and if I might add, “build on it, and make it better.”

Console names are great, but they alone do not drive sales – for Nintendo, that area of expertise belongs to its games, and the way you control them. Enter Wii U’s controller.

As he did with the name, Reggie Fils-Aime introduced its controller, to better applause. As some rumors had suggested, the controller did in fact have a screen in it — a 6.2 inch LCD touch screen, to be exact. Additionally, Wii U features a d-pad, four face buttons, four shoulder triggers, two analog sliders, a power button and a camera.
