| Anfebious said: So I was wondering. Is this the end of the Wii U in japan? Can we call it a "dead" system there? |
It will get 1-2 week spikes for Mario Kart and Smash Bros., but yeah, Nintendo may be out of bullets there otherwise. The sad thing is it seems like the Wii U was designed for the Japanese household (small, low electricity consumption in the wake of Japanese enegery conservation efforts, quasi-handheld like controller as the main novelty, 2D Mario, Monster Hunter, DQ, games near launch, etc.).
I'll give Sony credit -- they had enough sense to forget about the Japanese market in designing the PS4 and make it for the US/Euro markets first.
