The second best system seller on Wii was Mario Kart, because it gained so much from online, wireless controllers and motion controls. If it's a venerated franchise that makes similar gains from the Wii U's technology, it will have much the same effect. |
Mario Kart was huge, but before it hit we had Wii Sports, Mario Galaxy and Zelda:TP which all brought something fresh and stylish. Classic Nintendo games will sell - and I think Wii U will sell regardless - but if Nintendo wants the system to really take off and be a market leader, I think they need a game that is either a new franchise or a bold new re-imagining of an old one, something that gets attention. Especially from non-Nintendo fans.
