| Turkish said: The Wii was dangerous for Nintendo, it allowed them to create the disaster that is the Wii U. Iwata thought they could create another Wii, the audience moved on to mobiles. He lacked the foresight to see the bubble was about to burst. 3rd party problem was never addressed, the Wii was successfull and their own sw sold great, so no need for that. Nintendo's western branches lost autonomy, Mario was selling and the success of Wii only proved further that things didn't need to change. He didnt care about online while Sony and MS built their infrastructure since 2005/2006. Nintndo is an entire gen late in the game. All the problems that could've been addressed a gen earlier, are addressed now, because the Wii made them ignore those small problems. |
You missed his point. Wii U is a drastic change from Wii. While you seem to be arguing its the same. Rol is arguing that Nintendo should have continued with Wii's platform and that would have brought success.
