With NX they need to just get out of the situation of "telling" people to buy their hardware, and just give people/developers the hardware they want.

The software attach rate they have is so good, but they get into so many stupid situations by trying to force feed the market hardware ideas that a lot of people simply don't want.

Make the hardware as much of a non-factor as possible.

Can you explain to me why you want 3 systems very similar?

I think all Nintendo fans deserve to play *all* the games without having to spend like $500. 

I'm happy for the Splatoon sales, but it kinda sucks to realize 80% of people who bought a Nintendo machine this cycle won't play the game because they will never buy a Wii U. This is an insane way of doing business. 

In the past it made sense because the portable was just supposed to be like a little "companion" platform for the main console and portable tech was no where near home tech, but that's changed, Nintendo portables have been their best selling platforms for every generation after the Super NES and modern mobile chips allow for high end 3D graphics even.

Well, with those hardware numbers, it's no wonder that they're rushing to the push out the WiiU.

Rinse, wash, repeat

I understand that you do not want to acknowledge the low hardware sales or that the WiiU will have an abnormally short life but please stay on topic.



Nintendo mentions they're "looking at VR" in their press briefing. Take that for whatever it's worth.

Oh I acknowledge it lmao, and everybody else as well. It's just funny to see the same exact post from you ever quarter and we all know what the results going to be xD

 

Nice to never comment about the positive things like usual though ;) 



I'm starting to think 3DS is not even going to reach 70 million LTD, sales are fading out quickly, I think maybe they'll hit 5.5 million 3DS shipments next year and after that it will get really slow. 

Looks like 3DS will finish somewhere along the lines of 68-70 mill and Wii U at maaaaybe 16.5-17 million for their life time sales at this rate. 



so profits are up but hardware is down is what I gather from this

Profit: Up a smidge

Revenue: Down

Hardware: Down

Software: Down*

*But some individual software titles did well like MK8, Splatoon, Yoshi, Mario Maker, etc.
