Many would have you believe that people "just don't want Nintendo games any more" because of the Wii U, but sales of 9.36m for Mario Kart 7, 9.35m for Super Mario 3D Land, 7.37m for New Super Mario Bros 2 show this is blatantly untrue.

How so?

Handhelds and consoles sell to two entirely different demographs. Handhelds are mostly owned and played by kids. Consoles are mostly owned and played by the 16-35 male demopgrah. So you can't simply look at handheld game sales and use it as an indication that people still, by in large, want Nintendo software. Kids still want it, but do grown men? I think the Wii-U answers that for us, sadly.

I don't know what Nintendo can do to change this, but I hope they figure it out. If they can't sell consoles anymore, at least we still have their handhelds which are pretty awesome.

Where is ur evidence that there isnt a huge crossover between handheld and console fanbases? I have asked u this a few times and u never give an answer then u go on to say this same thing over and over again.
