DélioPT said: I think Nintendo got afraid to hype the games in advance - like they did with 3DS (Luigi`s Mansion, Kid Icarus, for example). In 2007, Nintendo released some big games for Wii: Mario Party 8, Wii Fit, Super Mario Galaxy, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, Super Paper Mario, Mario Strikers Charged and Metroid Prime 3. So far, the biggest titles are Pikmin 3 and Lego City. Here`s hoping the next Nintendo Direct announces some big titles like Splinter Cell and GTA V. Let`s see what Nintendo has in store for this year. But given it will have to compete with one or two new consoles, it will need some big titles. |
Isn't Bayonetta 2 expected to release this year? There's The Wonderful 101 and Rayman Legends as well. They're sure to announce a few big hitters at E3 as well.

It is. 1st halp of this year, i believe. My fear is that the big hitters will arrive only on the second half and i`m honestly not seeing another mario so soon. If there`s a Zelda, my guess is that it`s for 3DS. Mario Kart? Super Smash Brothers? Donkey Kong Returns 2? At least they will have the next Call of Duty and of all the new generation platforms, it will have the biggest userbase which will be good for Nintendo.
Wii pratically didn`t it because it was sold out after launch, but Wii U needs big titles and it needs them fast. The next best month for Wii U is only in March.

As much as I hate to say it, I don't see sales improving without a $50+ price cut, which is impossible at this point. Imo, in order to compete with the older consoles, Wii U needs to have at least one solid exclusive per month, and it needs to get most multiplats for the rest of the year. I do think it's also in desperate need of a new Pokemon title to go along with X&Y, or a new Mario Kart, neither of which I expect to release until sometime next year.
