Another group, though not as large, got into PS360. The true Nintendo loyalists are the ones who bought Wii U at launch, and of course not all 100% of them got it. Nintendo may just be realizing they made a new console for an audience that doesn't exist. |
The whole "the casuals have all moved onto tablets/phones" thing is a myth; yes, the audience had shrunk, but Just Dance 4 selling over 5 million on Wii since the end of last year shows there's still an audience for casual games on consoles. Problem is, the Wii U's out of their price range at present. Casuals gravitate towards cheaper consoles, and the Wii U is currently the most expensive on the market.
