Nintendo does not care about who sells the most as long as a profit is being made......moral of story as long as nintendo as a company makes a profit on their consoles they could care less how their sales decline or how many consoles are sold that is the purpose of running a business to profit lol just saying


nintendo JUST met their last years projection. They are bundling sw like crazy and already cut the price 50 dollars.before that, they were losing money on each system sold. Now,  there plan is to bundle their biggest seller this year.... where are these profits going to come from? Nintendo does care about unit sales because that means more sw sold. less cost on production per unit and more profit. The Wii U is a money sink and having such low sales isnt helping one bit

The point is they met their projections,whether it be "just" made it or not and As someone stated production costs as time pass gets lower which allows them to make profits on bundles ..I'm sure the wii u is slightly cheaper to produce right now than when they released it nov 2012...also the nintendo is trying to sell as many wii u as they can so that third party may be willing to take a risk on releasing third party games  because the install base is larger  and also ,they will profit on the game being bundled because I believe they will still bundle mario kart 8in the usa @300 dollars and a super bundle for 350$ ...still making a profit on each bundle sold ...just saying...
