Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Why do you think the Wii U will fail, when the 3DS came out of a similar horrible slump and even the Vita has stuck in the fight?

Because, the 3DS came back with big support of both Nintendo and 3rd parties, along with a very nice price cut.

As far as we have seen, Nintendo is not making any money on the WiiU so a price cut that big would hurt very much. Many a 3rd parties are flat out not making games for the system. So that basically leaves them with first party Nintendo titles, which yes, they have arguably the best games, and by far the best selling games. However, I don't think the WiiU has anything in its bag of tricks to make the experiences new.

In the case of the Vita, it has one last hope in the PS4. It is in the same situation as the U in it is getting no software support.

For both of them though, E3 is just around the corner.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

Because the more expensive PS4/Xbone are not out yet. As soon as they release the WiiU will be fine with the new releases and maybe a pricecut.



Because some people have:

1. Selective memories.

2. Agendas and bias.

3. Ignorance of circumstances (fancy way of simply saying 'they don't know').

4. It's hip to knock on Nintendo.

5. Happens with every single Nintendo console.



The rEVOLution is not being televised

Cuz Nintendo iz d00medz!!!1!1!!



Because there's no Wii Sports. The console cannot continue to exist without Wii Sports!

Because handhelds are a totally different market. Nintendo has always reigned the handheld space and it's just a matter of time before their next literation of the gameboy replaces the old one. In the console market Nintendo went flat on it's face though ever since Sony entered the market. The Wii was a surpising succes but only because they managed to lure in a new market that was more or less untapped by Sony and MS. Nintendo has the perfect brand for a family friendly gaming machine but this time they also want to reach the core gamers. That just isn't working out for them and it might be a bit to hardcore to get the casual gamers back.



Simply because this is a spurgeonryan thread spewing lyin' nonsense

Wishful thinking on their part.

Given the Wii U's current library, it is ridiculously overpriced. A mini game collection and a game that has similar versions on the much cheaper 3DS, DS and Wii consoles is not nearly enough to justify that price.


Wii Sports/Fit/Play, Mario Kart, 3D Mario, Super Smash Bros., The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Pikmin, Mario Party and the likes should turn things around eventually.

I thought you could find those games on Wii/DS/3DS as well? ;)



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

because is Nintendo, every Nintendo console will be another Gamecube and doom party going to continue foreva!



Click HERE and be happy 

Because I can count with the fingers of just one hand the number of Japanese 3rd party games released this year.



Why don't you make like a tree and get out of here?
