Casuals - The gimmick failed because you cant surprise a casual with tablet games and start a trend. Once casuals have seen it the glimmer is over, which is why its called a gimmick. - Where is are Wii U fit and casualized first party games? Thats all the casuals care about. -
-Hardcore gamers - Courted third parties enough to gather current gen multiplats, they WILL be cut off next gen to ensure multiplats maintain a high level of quality and realize their art direction based on high parameters let by third parties last gen. - They focus too much on the DS, and this probably isnt a bad thing in a way because the handhelds have always sold better than their - Console is severely underpowered by a large margin. Nintendo gamers love to trivialize this but its really no joke. Epic doesn't even think Nintendo should get Unreal 4 because of it. |
look i don't give a fuck about casual or hardcore those are only abused categories, I'm interested only in games regardless of their category.
"Courted third parties..." No they're not relevant for Nintendo success, with exception of Square, Enix and Capcom there never was important 3rd party developer responsible for Nintendo success, what Epic think is absolutely of no importance for WiiU success.
And this is exactly what 3rd parties can't stand, there is one highly successful platform holder whose success or failure is in no way dependent on their good will.
The question is not whether is WiiU powerful enough for 3rd parties but whether is good enough for Nintendo and their 1st and 2nd parties and this is all.
