Wii U down once again in Dengeki and Famitsu. Not boding well for the console. Can someone tell me which Japanese game that's not from Nintendo will be coming out for the Wii U in the middle term (Until the end of the year)?
The PS2 port compilation of Yakuza, I guess nothing else, but please correct me if I'm wrong. There are a few Nintendo games coming up, yes, but the TOTAL and ABSOLUTE lack of 3rd party games really portraits the future for the console. If it has worse support than the Wii had and with the abysmal level of sales, then I don't think we will see any 3rd party Japanese games for the Wii U during its lifetime.
At this point of time, the 360 had an incredible library in comparison to the Wii U, and that's all that needs to be said.

Sonic and that's like it.

Oh yes. Well that's two games from SEGA. One being the port of a PS3 game that was a remastering of 2 PS2 games, and secondly a multiplatform WiiU/3DS game. No other publisher is willing to support the console at all. Not even with multiplatform PS3/360 games.
Who, besides Nintendo fans will be buying a console with no variety and no games?
|
People sick of shooters. (Though most of those already went to PC)
|
I mean in Japan, shooters aren't a factor there. No one in JAPAN, besides Nintendo franchise fans of course and since Nintendo isn't releasing any new franchises either, there will be no new buyers. And as Gamecube proved, the Nintendo audience is limited. Wii brought new things to the table, but that was mostly casual they attracted. That audience is long gone and Nintendo has nothing new to provide them. 3rd parties will not support the console, so what's left? Simply Nintendo fans.
Console is heading to tragedy territory in Japan, never had I seen such terrible support for a console. Like I said, 360's line up was stellar in comparison.

Haven't you seen the gradual Japanese support shifting from consoles to the handhelds?
In terms of Japanese games, PS4 is going to have similar problems, bar Square's and Capcom's games (And those are coming when?)
Aside from them, not many companies in Japan have the resources to develop for consoles anymore. (Besides, most Turn-based RPGs are a better fit on handhelds)
