The problem is, Nintendo has failed to apply any of the lessons learned from 3DS's terrible launch. They said the 3DS launch taught them some bitter lessons, and that is probably true, but they then released Wii U with very little first-party support, and at a high price. No one wants to pay $350 and then $60 on top of that to play a NSMB game. I'm sorry, but that's just not a compelling proposition for most gamers.


Amen. You could say Nintendo also failed to apply any of the lessons learned from GameCube and N64 as well. I've just learned to see a Nintendo console as a first party console with a few surprises every year. If it hasn't gotten it by now, it never will. Or at least not until some fresh minds more in tune with reality get in decision-making seats.
