My reason to buy a Wii U back then was that whenever I found the time to play a video game, I had to go through a session of Windows Update, Steam update and game update that I lost interest by the time it was ready.
Compare that to the Wii U back then: Turn on and play.
Nintendo even achieved to keep this mindset with the Switch: It will update in the background so usually you just turn it on and play.
