Mario kart and smash will. I find hilarious the people underestimete both games ability to move HW.
A MK8 or Smash bundle with the game pre-installed at 200$ will sell GANGBUSTERS on black friday/holidays/golden week etc.
2014 and 2015 will be the peak years, i expect WiiU to sell 12m+ between the two...which is not much compared to Wii or PS4 but still it may let WiiU reach N64 numbers.


I actually agree, but like you said those will help it get to the 35 - 40 million range, not the 75+ million that I am sure Nintendo wants.   A true Pokemon is the one game that I could see launching the system to that territory.    Everyone has been begging for it, and with how big Skylanders has gotten, they could even do something with the NFC technology that could make the game a 18+ million sell no doubt.

Not every console can sold 100m, at least not with the Nintendo bussiness model. If you want them to lose bilion upon bilion to get a big install base and get third parties aboard since day one like Sony does, then...welll it wouldnt work for Nintendo.

Guess what? Nintendo is more profitable than Sony despite their lesser popularity. Sony wins the pop contest by far if its that what really matters? lol


Well I think the Wii already proved that they can sell 100 million consoles with pretty much their own software.  90 percent of the 3rd party games were shovelware, and the only ones that sold great were the Just Dance games.   Relying on 3rd Parties to move consoles is really dumb considering that most consoles profit margin is anywhere from +$30 to -$30.   Sonys going to go broke because no one wants their software.
