Nintendo acts like MS and Sony can't release a peripheral in the future to compete......

But what they don't acknowledge is that the more time goes by, the more dated the WiiU will look by comparison. This aint like the Wii, where casuals didn;t care about graphics......WiiU is for core gamers, and in a couple years it will allready look ancient compared to PS4/Xbox

 

You know that core gamers aren't only COD players right ? Indie gaming is on the scene right now, and if they can get devs ...

 

Well it will be difficult because of Nintendo policy but there will always be a possibility.

Zelda, pokemon and Mario never needed ultra high end graphics, but they have potential to bring core gamers.

Zelda has never been for pussies, Super Mario world had tons of gameplay hours and pokemon had t-rpg titles and roguelikes.

Just going by Gamecube and WiiU numbers as of now, both core-first consoles and each doing not so hot right now.


Gamecube days are already finished, wii U is only on her (yeah, all game consoles are female) first year right now. Numbers don't mean anything yet.

Well with gamecube Nintendo showed they can't stand toe to toe with the other guys. WiiU is repeating the same pattern (so  far). Lets see if they can pull a "3DS" again with WiiU

Gamecube showed no such thing. It showed they can't when they make stupid decisions regardng their core franchises, a mistake they may not repeat with Wii U.


What stupid mistakes ? Wind waker was freaking awesome.

But its graphics and sailing rubbed a lot of gamers the wrong way, just like Mario Sunshine being about cleaning up grafitti with a watergun on a tropical resort, Double Dash having two characters per kart, and Starfox Adventures being a Zelda clone. In terms of appealing to mainstream gamers, Nintendo seriously dropped the ball with the Gamecube, hence its low sales.
