The better question is, why would someone buy a Wii instead of Wii U?
Wii U literally has built in Wii and you can apply Wii hacks like Homebrew Channel and Nintendont, so you can play Gamecube games too

Wii U has some nice extras aside from playing its game library, like DS emulation. You can add more DS games thanks to Wii U Virtual Console Injector.

You ungrateful niggers where handed gold by Nintendo and you responded by defecating in their hand
