| ckmlb said: The old Nintendo franchises aren't gonna get new people to buy a Nintendo console, but they will sell a lot to people who own Wiis, attracting new people to get a Wii will be the games that are new franchises that are Wii specific (Wii Sports). |
I'd also add that unreleased Nintendo franchises (the Marios, SSB and Metroid fans out there) are a reason some people are still waiting for these games to be released before buying their Wiis.
This is the same argument that PS3 and Xbox 360 have: Once the Devil May Crys and Halos are released, sales should pick up because fans are waiting for their favorite games, which are still in development limbo.
I'd like to see how the release of the aforementioned franchises helped boost console sales in the past, but it seems the comparison charts are still down?
