Outside of the first wave of die-hard fans, I think we're going to Wii U sales dip quite a bit before building as more games are released. The early adopters buy for the hardware but most people buy for the software. I think the real system movers are further off in the launch window. Then, as with most consoles, software accumulation will lead to greater consumer interest.
So, no, I don't see a Wii type phenomenon. I think the Wii U will have a more traditional console growth curve. |
People often make this argument for WiiU, but it doesn't make sense to me. I mean, how can you say that "the real system movers" are still far off? There is no video game that is more of a system mover than Super Mario. If anything's going to get a console to sell, it's Mario. I don't see how you can expect other games to pick up the slack when the WiiU is already launching with what will definitely be one of its biggest games.

That's just a 2D Mario game. Everyone knows the real Mario games are the 3D ones.
