Why is Nintendo incapable of reading the market? The Nintendo Wii U just need more games, like it was with the Nintendo 3DS!!! And it's NOT Nintendo's fault that 3rd Party developers are not able to make great games for the Nintendo Wii U and are only able of makeing awful console ports with no support!!! And Nintendo can not make all the games alone which the Nintendo Wii U really needs to get more sales because at least Nintendo is not EA and they make quality games instead of rushed ports or something!!! |
While not a key argument, half of the fault in the third party situation lies with Nintendo, from lack of communication, to building a piece of hardware that is simply not as simple to work with as the X360 was (still is) or the PS4 currently is, systems undoubtedly loved by third parties.
The games statement is correct - it indeed is what sells systems. But Nintendo has been so far unsuccessful with pushing massive numbers using their own software like they did with the Wii. I suppose they really overestimated SMB3DW. The Wii proves that a system doesn't necessarily need massive third party support to sell systems, but Nintendo also put too much trust in their own software... manifesting in an inability to read your market. Back in the Wii days nobody would even bring up the third party point in a Wii sales discussion.
