I happened to run by this article while putting together another thread. I'm not sure how accurate this is. Most staff at the games stores I shop at know exactly what it is, but are just unimpressed with it, therefore, do not go out of their way to promote it. The bolder part is more towards the truth the way I see it.

"They didn't even understand what it was"
The poor sales of the Wii U have been blamed on a lot of things, such as a lack of games and high price point. However, there's also the question of the branding and whether or not Nintendo has been successful enough in informing potential buyers about the difference between the new console and its best-selling forerunner.
According to IHS Electronics & Media's Senior Games Analyst Christine Arrington, this is possibly the single biggest problem the Wii U is facing right now
