Yes I agree, but I think people think just because Nintendo have some high rated games, that this is *more* important than these other factors. 

Sorry trying to have about 7 different conversations on different things, so slightly all over the place.

What I am trying to say is that some people believe that just because some Nintendo games have come out with high scores, this basically is the argument for poor sales... not sure if that makes sense..

Lol, know the feeling :D

 

Although I think I lost that last sentence... You're saying people say that the reason the Wii U is selling bad is because the games have high quality?

Haha yeah - trying to work, play games, reply to forums... probably shouldnt do that.

No I dont mean that. Man i am confusing myself now... 

It's mainly the Eurogamer thread thats kinda my point. People are slating PS4/XBO by saying that well Nintendo have much better rated games and a better library. I am saying Good games sell consoles, but what is a good game. It's not necessarily just a Metacritic or a review score. It's quantity, but more importantly a range and depth that people want to play. There are of course other factors, price and hardware power, 3rd party support, but thats the point I was trying to make (but badly...haha :)

I see. Makes more sense this time around as well. :D

 

Personally I think PS4 and One are selling well now because of hype and a future. Most of the interesting games on those systems are avalible elsewhere, but the ones buying the systems KNOW that they'll always get the third party games. Can't say the same thing for Nintendo. If you like what Nintendo is offering though there's no reason not to buy, but seeing as Nintendo aren't tapping into the western market in a large degree, it's hurting sales. 

 

Add to that total confusion about what the system is (and the fact that no one knows about the systems existence), and you have a pretty hard time selling a system. I'm really hoping they'll sort it out though, Wii U really is an awesome system.
