wasn't that all done before when you connected your game boy to your game cube?
Good point. But that needed two separate systems and a cable you had to buy separately. Thus not a lot of games took advantage of this. Difference being is that the Wii U comes this way, so every game can take advantage of it.
Plus, of course, all the bells and whistles. But that's the big difference: execution.

i take the "every game" argument as bogus.
none of my games (including the Black Ops, launched way after) uses motion plus.
Then there's the "other device" argument.
My GBA cost me some $149 at launch day! the Wii U will cost $250! More than what i paid for my Wii, $150. But yes, the cable was a problem with nintendo. always hated them for that. $25 bucks but took me months to find it! for a damn cable.
In the end, i don't think nintendo got any better at execution at all! it's just doing now as much marketing in the US as it always did in Japan.
