Anywho terrible quarter for Nintendo. This is what, the 7 or 8th quarter where they have registered losses since the new generation started?
3DS down y/y despite massive games in japan, new colors/models and no competition
Iwata is being disingenuous with his forecast for Wii U sales for March 2014. This quarter is already one month in, Donkey Kong delayed until next year, Mario releasing at the end of the month November, competition from two new consoles, the Wii, 360, PS3 and 2/3DS. The US had a government work stoppage for 18 days which zapped the US economy for a couple billion during the time frame...i mean i can go on and on
Current sales for new games already seem weak, i.e. Sonic in Europe, no hype for any of the Wii bread winners such as wii fit, just dance.
Somehow if he would pull it off more power to him but I think itll be an issue where retailers will not take that much in stock.
