| NintendoPie said: I was going to be a Wii U sooner or later either way. That's why I probably wouldn't count. If Nintendo made a good IP (not one like Metroid, I don't want any type of shooter) then I would probably be happy. Although, I'm perfectly fine with Nintendo keeping their current IPs while twisting them in different ways that could be considered innovation, at times. |
I plan to be a Wii U sooner or later. But right now the only game that keep me interested is Smash Bros and The Wonderful 101. One of those two games I've mentioned is a new IP.
If you can't rely on third parties to satisfy the need of IPs, then you should create new. You should take risks. You say things have worked well for Nintendo, but they were near-bankrupcy before the release of the Wii. They got lucky because of innovation and marketing. Now they've got to keep being innovative, and the gamepad doesn't seem to attract that much attention. You gotta rely on games.
