I think most agree the wii U sales are bad to date- We all agree they will get better starting now thru Spring 2014- Many of us think "better" will still be far below what is needed and def below the 9 million sales target Nintendo has for this fiscal year and some think they will hit the target- my question is, regardless of what one thinks the Wii U hardware sales will end up, how will the software sales do per Wii u sold?
So far it looks like the wii U is poised to have among the worst attach rates of any recent console and if you read about all the people that have or will be buying a Wii U for specific games like Smash Brothers and Mario Kart, it seems the Wii U is destined to be a "Nintendo 1st party exclusive" machine for many and a specific game(s) machine for a large % of buyers as well- I think the # of people who have a Wii U as an only console or Primary console AND buy lots of software for it are a very low % of current and future owners- so even though hardware sales will rise it seems like correlating software sales will be lower than average fro most consoles regardless of which Company- The low software sales to date and highly possible low software attach rate in the future could be a bigger dilemma for the wii u than anything else to date- It seems that 3rd party games alre likely to struggle even when/if Wii U hardware sales grow
