Iwata says Wii will avoid major droughts that plagued GameCube. (March 2007) “When we launched GameCube, the initial sales were good, and all the hardware we manufactured at that time were sold through. However, after this period, we could not provide the market with strong software titles in a timely fashion. As a result we could not leverage the initial launch time momentum, and sales of GameCube slowed down. To avoid repeating this with Wii, we have been intensifying the software development, both internally at Nintendo and at developers outside the company, in order to prepare aggressive software lineup for Wii at and after the launch.” says Iwata. He then says, ”We believe it is important to provide the market with strong software without a long interval in order to keep the launch time momentum.” Source: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/libr...0607qa/02.html “It’s important that you be able to supply software with no pause,” said Iwata. “With the DS and Wii, following the titles that were released at launch, the momentum dropped when there was a gap in software releases. We’re making plans so that this type of thing won’t happen.” Source: http://www.vg247.com/2011/01/10/iwat...ware-with-3ds/ “ As we learned a bitter lesson with the launch of the Nintendo 3DS, we are trying to take every possible measure so that the Wii U will have a successful launch.” Source: http://www.computerandvideogames.com...on-iwata-vows/ “I apologize to those supporting Wii U about the lack of titles in January and February.”
“The way we’re going to be different is, we’re gonna certainly have a steadier pace of games – both for Wii U and for 3DS.” __________________________________________________________

Frankly, all gaming companies lie, stretch the truth, and twist it to try and get our dollars... Anyone that thinks otherwise has no brain.
