| Soundwave said: With no Fit/Sports crazes the system is just another GameCube. Mario Kart will provide a boost but not the one Nintendo fans think. Nintendo doesn't have anything on the table that appeals to non-Mario fans in a mass market fashion. They bet the farm on the casual gamer coming back to them (at least 50-60% of them), they weren't counting on that market completely collapsing on them. That's the whole crux of the Wii U, if they knew that audience wasn't coming back, they would've probably made a very different system. |
True, they need something new. For Sony and MS it's apparently working to have a bit of everything. And they're getting the 3rd party blockbusters (wonder if N is ever going to see a mainline GTA). It wasn't looking good for 360 and PS3 for some years, but in the end those systems had a good mix of everything - shootyshootyshoot shoot kill shoot, cinematic blockbusters, sports, casual games, multimedia, indie games.
