My thing is this, is the Wii U an evolution of the Wii? Or an abandonment of it? The Gamepad does not resonate with the market as the Wii Mote has. It also brings the price of the system up $100 or more, during an economy in the shitter I might add.
Off-TV play may be of convenience to you, but to many others they probably have no use for that, or at least aren't willing to spend the money in order to have that option. In other words, I doubt if the GP was sold as a peripheral it would see Wii Fit like success..do any of you think it would?
I think Nintendo would be in a better position if they just fixed the few issues Wii had and continued on that path as opposed to doing what they are doing now. They abandoned their most successful console ever, and probably the most lucrative console ever made, for what? Third Party acceptance & appeasement? They didn't even get that.
Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:
If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.
If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
