Mario kart was the king Mario game on the Wii thats why. It tends to be high on the list of top sellers in every gen for mario. Super Smash wont do as well. There are other games but if Mario Kart and Super Smash don't sell well its pretty much over.

you're not answering the thread's question.


My answer is that there wont be a game until Nintendo tries something new. If the usual suspects cant save it then it the new gamer (god forbid) will truly have to be a great exclusive and not multiplat. There are no other games of note including Zelda and the Wii gimmick no longer works. The Wii U is going to probably do worse than GC numbers the way things are going. This generation the Wii U will be cannibalized by the Wii U and having ported games on both platforms isnt helping. The DS version will still feature multiplayer and will still be cheaper in the end. The Wii U loses by default there. I believe this is why MS pushed back the 360 release date of Titanfall, because it would cannibalize the Xbox Ones chances of regaining marketshare at launch against the PS4.

you said so much random stuff thet i didn't get half of it. and you still haven't answered the thread's question.


Sorry, I was typing on my phone because I was in sequentials class. I was saying there will be no other games at E3. This is exactly why I believe Nintendo is doing the Nintendo Directs, because without third party they cannot outshine Sony and Microsoft at E3. 90% of the hottest games that come out at E3 are third party and the rest are exclusive to some platform and even there Sony and Microsoft will give each other a run for their money. I would be extremely surprised to see Nintendo get back on the stage this year with Mario kart and Super Smash headlining their year. As i said before, poor Wii U because the 3DS is the primary Nintendo console for sure this gen without any competition from its parent console. Many more people will buy 3DS over the primary console this gen (remember the trend going on in japan with lack of console sales but high handheld sales?) and Mario Kart and Super Smash. Nintendo has just given great reason to cannibalize Wii U sales. Now that people have multiplayer they want to play the game with their friends and the 3DS does that competitively with the Wii U.
