I support you!!! Don't let people ruin your dreams! Go forth and do what it is you need to do!



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

but you are the guy who actually paid people on VGC to post more positive Nintendo threads.


Are... you serious?



This is desperate on a level I have never witnessed before. I don't care if It's legal, you are wasting your own and other peoples time. Do you really think this is going to help? You need to find some more stuff to do in your life if this is what you want to spend your time on. You have a better shot at earning enough money to pay all the third party devs to put games on the Wii U, than that this will change anything. Whether you love the company or not doesn't matter, this is just plain stupid.



Yeah, this is pretty silly. Theres no reason to buy games just to return them later.

Theres probably a bigger chance of the stores taking in even less WiiU games than making them order more. Theres also the possibility of them refusing to take the games back and now youre stuck with games you dont want.

Buy the games you want and let the WiiU speak for itself. If it ends up a flop, then so be it. Hope their next console will be and do great.



Your plan won t help increase shelf space, inventory or sales- if you "buy" a bunch of Wii U games at 1 or more stores them return them at 1 or more stores the net inventory/shelf space and sales will remain the same- The 1st store may order to re supply but the next store will delay ordering due to excess inventory

Bottom lime is there would be no change hence no help - the best thing to do is to buy good 3rd party games when they are released - I have bought many from Wii u launch day thru today but the number or options available are shrinking- There are only 2 ways we will get a decent selection of 3rd party games going forward and only the 22nd option is guaranteed 1) sales of 3rd party games prove there is a viable demand and 2) Nintendo does what it takes to bring key 3rd party games to its platform. If Nintenso is not willing to take some risk to bring 3rd party games to its platform then 3rd parties are less likley to

Man, you are dedicated. I won't join in this phase, but I will buy more 3rd party games. I have no time to return games to other stores.



I love you Ryan!

As soon as I get my next paycheck I will be starting phase 3 of my Save Wii U campaign. Mostly to get third parties to continue support, but also to make retailers happy with it taking up so much shelf space.

1. I will use my paycheck to clear out whole sections of games from store shelves.

2. I will then return those games to another store outside of the area.                  

3. To keep stores off my scent, I will change it up and only do one of each store every month.

4. I will say I thought my nieces and nephews had a Wii U, but found out they had a Wii, so I will have to return the games.

5. I will be sure to act like I am shopping for other items so that the different store will be more willing to let me return there.

 

Now, this is not illegal. What it will do is force companies to buy more stock, because no business wants empty shelves. So, since this is not illegal, I am asking right here and now who wants to join phase three, and possibly the last part of my violent and extreme plan to save the Great Wii U? Underappreciated Wii U. Missunderstood Wii U.

Will you join me?

Let's do it.....

 

Or make it even more plain... buy lots of PS4 games..... then return them for Wii U game in the same store saying out load on a weekend that your niece/nephew sold for free their PS4 as he desperately wanted a WiiU.....

 

then follow your startegy to a different store....



Switch!!!

If you do this, keep track of how many Wii U's you get.


Well...I will not be buying Wii U systems, just the third party games. Especially from Ubisoft and EA.


Please no. I was really happy when we got rid of EA "support"..



Uhhh..... yeah! Good luck, Spurge! You are going to need it!
