BTW anybody care to think when they should re-launch the system. It'll be suicidal for them (IMHO) to cut the price of the system this November or Dec when the PS4 and X1 launches.


When else should they do it? Do you think they should bury their heads in the sand and hope the whole PS4 & XB1 thing blows over instead?


I think they should do it this August when Pikmin launches. This definitely would work better than putting their relaunch in front of speeding train that is the X1/PS4 launch.  They should also include a playable downloaded demo of Mario 3D world, Wonderful 101,  Rayman Legends etc.  Honestly, Nintendo's weakest link is their marketing, their engineers and software designers  are very good but they have crappy marketing!!!


I thought it would have been very cool if they had released the Best Buy demos to every Wii U owner during E3. They were so close, and that would have won it for them easily. I swear the first to figure out how to line this up has a guaranteed E3 win for that year.

As for August, I'm not sure Pikmin has the power to push a relaunch. They really might have to wait for the Kart / Smash combo, but at least that is pretty much guaranteed to make an impact.
