If you were in charge of Nintendo, how would you manage the Wii U's first year

[Joelcool7]

Continued...toys and merch would be available for Miyamoto's new franchise. I would also give Club Nintendo across all regions some promotional items they can't pass up. A Star Fox Arwing model for Japan produced by NamcoBandai's Gundam team, a Gold plated Banana that uses Skylander like technology to give you an exclusive feature in Donkey Kongs new game (For North America) and for Europe a collectable statue for SmashBros this statue like the banana would feature WiiU content a profile viewer to view a sneak peack at the future SmashBros title.

At e3 2013 I would announce Mario Kart WiiU and show the first teaser of SmashBros and Legend Of Zelda. A sequel to the best performing new IP would be teased and several new games would he announce WiiFitU would be confirmed for the holiday season coming in December.

My whole strategy would he to hit the market with as much exclusive content as possible. Both from third parties, second parties and first party. I would link those three Club Nintendo gifts to Platinum members but unlike past years I would let the public know about them the day WiiU launches. This driving fans to earn points I would put a good 400 million into advertising and getting that anime based on Miyamoto's new franchise and toys..etc...etc...

My core casual title would he the free game coming with the console much like WiiSports. It will include all of the Mii games Nintendo has shown thus far and more. But the educational game would be the biggest ace in the whole being released as school shopping is winding up near the end of the first year. Another casual game would be among the new IP.

The console would launch at 350$ with free online and the free game. The tablet would come loaded with some free content as well. Some free points or currency for WiiUWare or ebooks etc..etc.. would also be present. A pre-order bonus would include a demo disk with demo's for all of Nintendo's first three month first party games.

Nintendo needs to kill during its launch year.
