Those games are all mature though, and certainly not as easy as something like Mario Karts. 

So in a best case scenario (also read utterly implausible) SSB will help shift 8 million consoles, meaning the Wii U taps out at 10 mill. Yeah that's guarenteed 3rd place.

Whether something is "mature" or not has nothing to do with whether it is core.

This second statement is just preposterous; you're concluding that every Wii U sold from now onwards will only be pushed by SSB? 


Yeah it does. Something like Heavy Rain is easy (can't really fail) but mature. Are you telling me that's a casual game?

Exactly my point. You are all saying that a handful of exclusives will shift the Wii U. That's absurd. Simply put the Wii U does not have a large enough line up to be successful imo as even in best case scenarios it won't shift many consoles unless something radically changes.

You have such a flawed logic... Mature doesn't equel core game. Wouldn't that mean that strategy games isn't core at all? Star Craft isn't mature per say, and neither is Europa Universalis or Total War, so I guess those aren't core if a core game has to be mature... As far as I know CoD is a core game, is it not? It's mature, I'll give you that, but is it hard? No, it isn't. It's easy.


Right a game in which the story line is to do with rebellion, alien swarms, etc etc isn't mature...? How? Dawn of Wars are all mature, Sins of a Solar Empire, SupCom etc....

Recreating battles from hundreds of years ago isn't mature? Are you serious? 

Give CoD to a non-gamer, watch them struggle. Give Mario Kart to a new gamer, easy as anything. You obviously aren't remembering the scale of difficulty when you started gaming.
