They need more AAA multiplats and people still cannot differentiate the Wii U from the PS3 and 360. This is where the PS4 and Xbone will have the advantage in their debut. If you ask me, the tablet is holding the Wii U back......BIGTIME.

Because AAA multiplats sold 100 million Wii's ...........No, multiplat is irrelevant on a Nintendo console. They just need to start putting out software that takess advantage of the gamepad and market the damn thing properly and they will be fine.


You're a smart one aren't you? It's quite obvious the Wii is a once in a blue moon ordeal. The marketshare Nintendo amassed last gen will not be here in the next gen, which is why analysts have predicted that this generation the overall marketshare will shrink. When nintendo fails a gimmick, they are basically back to feeding their loyal crowd which hangs at around thirty million. If they up their third party at least a bit more they'll be able to make it forty by the end of this generation. Of all the people to understand my point, I thought Michael Pachter would be the last. Nintendo will need third party support more than you know because this generation is going to be very, very rough.

Yeah, AC3, COD:G and Batman AC really helped Wii U's launch.

You can keep going on and on about how Nintendo needs the big AAA games or they can't succeed, but that doesn't make it true.

Nintendo consoles aren't Sony or MS consoles.


Did I say Nintendo wouldnt succeed? Find a generation where Nintendo didn't profit off of their main hardware. You wont be able to..why? Because Nintendo has always played it safe with hardware and it has either helped or hurt them against the competition in the long run. They always make hardware for themselves and this has cost them a relationship with third parties thus keeping their marketshare naturally lower than the competition. AAA multiplats are what the lionshare of the market wants, not exclusives. Exclusives differentiate one console from another. Do you know what makes Nintendo games different from Sony or Nintendo in sales? Bundling. Sony and MS spend so much making their games that they cannot make one cheap enough to bundle with every syste.
