I'll answer your question with another question... what's the difference between games like Nintendo Land or NSMB U and your average smartphone game?

The smartphone games cost $59 less.

The huge gap in quality?

Do you see that?  "The smartphone games cost $59 less."  Why do you think he says that?  MAYBE because Mario, as much of a gaming landmark as he is, is for one specific audience.  Mario 2D to Mario 3D, to a lot of us, is still Mario.  They've GOT that crowd...HELL, they've had that crowd and never lost them for over 2 decades.  Don't you think it's about time to add other weapons under your belt as well, Nintendo?


Kid Icarus: Uprising & Dillon's Rolling Western & Youkai Watch & Denpa Men & Sumo-Puzzle (Pushmo & etc.) & Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon  & The Wonderful 101 (2nd Party) & Bayonetta 2 and up (2nd Party) & Lego City Undercover (2nd Party) & Sakura Samurai & Ketzal's Corridors & Wii Sports & Wii Party & Rodea the Sky Soldier (3rd Party) & King of Pirates (3rd Party) & ZombiU (3rd Party) & good Resident Evil games (3rd Party) & Monster Hunter 3 and up (3rd Party) & etc.

Okay...lol.  First I'd like to say that I'm rooting for Ninty, absolutely.  With that being said, look at the games you mentioned, which are a lot.  Where are the fake wrestlers?  Where are the silly-but-unique third-person shooters?  Where are the games that are a direct troll of the popular games on PS4/Xbox One, but with Ninty's quirky-but-humorous graphics style?  I hear all the time how Ninty fans wish games were ported over to the WiiU.  I say, make your OWN mark with those genres.

 

Unless of course, Nintendo (and their loyal fans) don't want to EXPAND into other popular genres of gaming.  Which would bring us back to marketing to mobile gaming and poor console sales, again...
