The 160'000 figure that was reported by Nintendo opened my eyes to just how bad the situation is, and I'm happy about. Nintendo clearly messed up with their Wii U and they are deserving of having a horrible time with the console. Maybe not deserving of extremely bad luck, but bad sales are surely useful to teach them that maybe they should think before they go off and build another console. Because they obviously didn't think long and hard enough about this one. The Gamepad is too expensive, the name was awkward at first, the games haven't been available at all, the OS was extremely slow until they had you download and update (which didn't come until a few months after launch, to my knowledge.), etc. Hopefully Nintendo doesn't drop the ball on their next console, because I do believe they'll have another. Just maybe not one as badly planed out as this one has so far. Anyhow, what are your feelings on the Wii U's failure? Does Nintendo need to see how bad they are doing before they get better? I sure think so, but I want to hear your opinions as well. (Also, try to have an explanation for both sides. It opens up more discussion.) |
I'm mixed on the poor sales.
I'm hoping it results in a ton of great and amazing games for the Wii U from Nintendo and soon that I want like Zelda, Metroid, ect.
I'm praying it doesn't result in trying to replicate the WIi by focusing on Wii Fit, or other casual things that seem to have made it a huge sucess.
They could go either way. One good thing about struggling though is that they will step it up and try to do something big and quick to turn it around.
