I'm quite sure Nintendo's market research doesn't revolve around online forums. On topic, I believe that this is quite likely. I mean, even though I have bought two games, nothing in its launch line-up is really great. I bought Super Monkey Ball 'cause there was nothing else and Nintendogs Cats is somewhat repetetive after the original. Nintendo really shouldn't have tried to let third parties build their base on the console first. I mean, if I weren't a Nintendo fanatic, the 3D really wouldn't be enough for me to buy the console. |
IMO this is what they have been doing with the Wii as well (except not only 3rd party does not build the base). Keep the releases low quality and barren for the majority of the year and when something "worthwhile", "decent" or "brilliant" comes along, "everyone" will buy those games because there is nothing else to buy. No wonder their titles sell like crazy, there are so few new ones to buy every year.
So to me, this is just more of the same old "this generation"-Nintendo tactics.
