That could be said about anything successful, and the word fluke wouldnt even exist... The fact is their 'premeditation' and 'calculations' are not as accurate as you think. If you are so confident that what they intend actually happens, then why would they go ahead with the wii U? Surely they didnt premeditate and calculate a failure did they? One day you will accept that the success of a product is based on far more things than the vision the creators have of it. |
Just read "The Innovator's Dilemma" by Clayton Christensen. That's the book Nintendo based the Wii on. That's the book the iPod, iPhone, iPad were based on. You may also read "The Blue Ocean Strategy" which is the strategy behind the Nintendo DS that also explains why Samsung's products took off.
The reason the Wii U (and to some extend the 3DS) failed is that Nintendo *intentionally* stopped following these strategies. They even said that in interviews. They thought they were smart enough on their own - looks like they were wrong. In the last investors meeting Iwata talked about "finding blue oceans" again as a reaction to Nintendo's current situation. Their "Quality of Life" platform will be based on blue ocean strategy.
