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.

First of all, Nintendo has never relied on 3rd part multiplats and it would be absurd to assume they did now. Patcher has basically been wrong on every Nintendo related prediction and it would not be wise to take his crystal ball predictions.

Mario Kart which was a core Nintendo game that now has huge appeal to the casuals. They are releasing casual friendly first party games this fall which will take back some of that crowd. Will Wii U sell 100 million? Probably not but when it takes off this fall ( and it will) I would bet my bank account it will end up with at least 50 million sales at the end of this gen!
