I hope Sony and Microsoft do a direct type reel as well, felt far more focused and polished than traditional show format.

See. That other thread about how Wii U sales are higher because people were disappointed with PS4 and Xbox One was onto something. The reason why the sales are higher is because the people who weren't interested in a next gen console yet decided they were now interested in the Wii U over the other two because of Nintendo's great E3 showing and the poor ones from Sony and Microsoft.

Sony's E3 was the worst, so you see the bar went down. Microsoft's was better, went up a bit, Nintendo's was the best, went up a lot.

Or maybe mario kart, a game that sold 34 million last gen yes?

It's certainly possible that mario kart raised the intent of core gamers, but this graph shows before and after E3. Not before mario kart and after E3.

Why do surveys always mean nothing when something good for Ninty. I'm not saying anything about you specifically but literally every single survey or poll that shows Nintendo in a positive light is dismissed on like, the first page, almost every time.

For me it's always mean nothing even if it's about Sony or Microsoft .

I didn't believe Sony when they said 31% of new PlayStation owners PlayStation 4 had an Xbox 360 or Wii in the last generation, but skipped the PS3.

They ask only 1000 gamers how could that mean something

PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

Seriously can someone explain the green bar? Do I understand this right that the pre and post E3 samples are different people?

it's bullshit, really. WiiU is getting better because mario kart, not E3.

A survey with a thousand people who watched E3 has really no meaning in real life because it does not reflect the market, who is made mostly from people who don't even know when or where is E3.

Funny how after this year's E3, most everyone everywhere agrees that Nintendo's show was the best, even clamouring for Sony and MS to do digital events in the future instead of live presentations - while before E3, basically everyone who wasn't a Nintendo fan was like 'lulz Nintendo haz no live conference, teh Wii U iz d0med, Nintendo is irrelevant'. Funny how the tides have turned.

I m sure the recent lift in sales is due directly to Mario Kart 8 and the great bundle that it was part of plus the free game- e3 should have excited existing g owners android rice owners but I can t imagine e too many people running out to buy a Wii u in June of 2014 based on games they are excited about that won't comment out ( for the most part) till 2015 or some even 2016

If Nintendo follows through on their e3 showing and delivers on what they were selling then that will bode well for sales over the next 1.5 years +- (so long as they son t have too many more droughts)
