Nope.
The 3DS isnt the issue, its the publisher/developer (Nintendo in other words) who is pretty much not focusing on the Wii-U (lack of announcements/discussions) along with the lack of third party support + the fierce competition in terms of software + bundles/deals. |
the reasons the WiiU isnt selling are many. too much to even post now. but i believe that the 3DS is only making things worse. honestly its like a portable WiiU at the moment.
|
All it needs is Retro Studios (MK7 doesn't count.)
That's quite literally it.
|
Honestly that is like saying Soul Sacrifice or one monster hunter game is gonna save the Vita. Its gonna take more than one game to save the Wii-U from crashing and burning completely.
|
the good thing about Nintendo is, that they always deliver these special first party games.
|
That didnt save the Virtual Boy now did it? Or allow Nintendo to win against the competition who had the PS1 and PS2.
They'll need something to attract casuals like they did with the Wii, however - considering its casuals - the market is way different from what it was when the Wii came out. I dont think casuals will be much interested with the Wii-U as with the Wii. There's a few factors preventing another Wii type success from happening although it can still happen if they make the right decisions which all add up.
The main things that are preventing that from happening are
-The cost of the system is a bit too high for casuals compared to the Wii's original price (which was $249.99) and what it is now.
-Competitors re-focusing on the motion controls (i.e. PSMove (l0l) and Kinect).
-Competitors having cheaper systems which can run almost the same games (i.e. eliminating the need to buy multiplats on the Wii-U).
-Competitors having better bundles and a bigger variety of SKUs for the systems.
-Competitors having more fleshed out software library with both old software and new upcoming software.
-Smartphones and Tablets attracting casuals far more than actual video game systems.
-Nintendo's failure to focus on the Wii-U in its advertising and direct shows.

they kicked Yokoi (one of the most impoartent if not THE most important man in the history of Nintendo besides Miyamoto) for it's failure. (kindy cruel to be honest, but that's buisness i guess)
And the Virtual Boy wasn't even meant to be a main system, it was meant to keep customers cause of ps 1 and saturn cause the n64 still needed more time. It was also uncomfortable, unpractical, your head/eyes did hurt after using it quite a while. It was the consumer unfriendliest System Nintendo ever made and probably will make in the future.
And the Virtual Boy also didn't have any must have nintendo first party title. Also Virtual Boy didn't evenr each the on million mark.
