I think if Nintendo wants to have success with older gamers and have the third parties that make those types of games take them seriously, they themselves have to make a flagship IP for that audience and prove that it can sell in the millions.

If Nintendo still had say James Bond or Perfect Dark and were selling 3-4 million copies of that every time out, they would have third parties like those that make games like Grand Theft Auto and BioShock wanting in on their platform.

All the pubs that make mascot/kids-centric games support the Wii U with things like Rayman and Sonic and LEGO and Skylanders because they see the sales Mario and Pokemon generate and that want in on the gravy train.

Demographics, Nintendo. It's not a conspiracy, it's just common sense. 

Exactly why his response is stupid. Volume of consoles is nothing to do with it but demographics is. No one is denying that.


That said, we make these really big, AAA titles that work on some platforms, but not others." I think this was his attempt to vaguely address that. And if you know this to be true. Why complain? I see alot of people crying again but completly ignoring the demograph issue. There are still some people who cry about Wii not getting Bioshock or GTA4. Really? do people really think Wii was capable of running those game? And when i say run those games i mean RUN those games, not this Force Unleashed or Sonic Unleashed crap where they are two COMPLETLY different games that share the same name. To further prove my demograph thing, look at Bully sold half of the 360 version on Wii, HALF with a higher user base. Oh and BTW take 2 did support WIi, with Table Tennis games, because those were the games people WANTED to play on WIi, for those who didnt like them thats their problem, buy any of the other 3 platforms for those games you wanted.
