| TwoThreeSoFly said: It is a combo of things. From the fact that they built up this tremendous image in the regular wii which is still available and rather cheap. It is because the wii u don't really have its own identity or one that is bringing in the original wii owners and making them want to up grade. It could also be the fact that many wii owners were new to gaming and now are looking to more powerful systems like the ps4 and xbox one. |
1. No. The Wii is not "still selling" unline the PS3 and X360, the sales are down 20,000 a week because nobody is interested in it anymore. The problem is that, they aren't interested by the Wii U either. If anything, the Wii won this generation by numbers, and in 2006 it brought the best model and innovation, but because of the weak hardware it quickly became obsolete and the numerous cheap/bad games releases, it ended up loosing image
2. Maybe. I believe that the maturation of the casual public over 6 years and the fact that people are aiming toward more "spectacular" entertainment (when there's recession, people turn to fictions and drugs...), make it so that people want to have a big screen with a powerful console or PC.
