But who's saying that? I'm definitely not.
Also you're just making assumptions. I could just as easily say that even when the Wii U get's more games it's sales still wont be that great, hence why I'm only going off of how it's been doing and what's been done before since we can't know the future or what would have been. Yes me saying there'll be a $100 price cut by the end of 2014 is also just an assumption, but I'm not using it to prove anything and it's backed up by facts n past instances, making it more of an educated guess.

Who's saying what? You didn't bold anything from my post so I can't respond to that.
Saying it needs a price cut at all is jumping the gun though. It'd be like saying XB1 is $500, it needs a $100 cut by the end of 2014 because nobody will buy it for that much money. You & I both don't know what will happen once the games are finally released. I don't agree or disagree with you, just saying you can't simply say things like "people don't like the price" or "it definitely needs a price cut" without knowing exactly how people will respond to a consistent game release schedule.

Sorry, I was referring to your last sentence about price dropping before games come out. I never said that's what they should do.
The Xbox One isn't out yet while the Wii U is, and you're exactly right that we don't know what impact the games will have, so better to go by what we do know as said before. You keep saying the lack of games are the biggest reason for the Wii U's poor sales, which is undoubtedly true, but price is definitely a factor aswell. As much as people say the Wii U has no games (even myself hehe), NSMBU, ZombiU, Sonic&Sega Racing, RE:Revelations, Lego City, CoD:BO2, Nintendo Land, MH3U, and more do exsist, giving the Wii U a pretty diverse library in terms of genres. So it does have some games, they're just not worth the purchase of a $350 system. Better games, better price, will fix these problems. Also, game releases are all the more reason for a price cut as you'd want to coincide it with the launch of key titles. That should not only boost sales greatly, but also help it maintain a higher level of sales week after week. |
But the majority of the games on Wii U are also on consoles with much bigger install bases and most are late ports at that. The only exclusives this year have been Lego City and Game & Wario, also Injustice is the only multiplat released on time. It just needs the big games to release already with some decent marketing to go with them. As far as price goes I think its fine, if anything just better value bundles. Maybe add Nintendo Land to the Basic and add NSMBU to the Deluxe with a download code for Luigi U. Also holiday deals/bundles will take care of price thid holiday.

Rawrghs! I'm not saying the price cut has to come this holiday! I've only said it'll come by the end of 2014. Why wont yal understand this!? D: |
its just rediculous to talk about a console getting a price cut by the time its been out for 2 years, its pretty obvious it will get a price cut by then, every console except Wii has had one in that time frame. When somebody talks about a console needing a price drop it usually implies within the next few months.
