Nintendo failed to really give gamers what they wanted in '08 and that is being reflected in their lowered sales numbers in Japan while 360 and PS3 numbers have close to being as high or have been even higher as of late. Now, if you've seen THotD commercial that ends by talking about how the Wii is getting hardcore now, that is actually the first positive message out of Nintendo after failing to deliver the promised core games last year. They will need more successful core games to remain as successful as they have been as most of the Wii's early success was |
Well, you'll probably be wrong for the same reason that GTAIV, MGS4, LBP, CoD4, Gears2, Killzone2, and many other games haven't stopped the Wii yet. If Nintendo is purely going for consoles sold, then all they need to do is cater to the Wii Fit and Mario Kart Wii crowd. Honestly of all the Wii's I've seen sold in the last year, every one of them got bought with 1 or the other game. Not new games in the last month, but games from last spring. Wii sports is still a major seller to this day. I was in a store, and people were asking if it came with those sports games that are so much fun (refering to Wii Sports).
besides, I thought Microsoft and Sony weren't competing with Nintendo
