Some people agreed and make good points like a ALBWHD multiplayer. I also mentioned about TPHD remake announced to fill the gap. After today, I can see it. Hyrule Warriors for 2014, MM3D for 2015 and TPHD/ALBWHD multiplayer for 2015-2016 is more than enough Zelda until the big project one in holiday 2016 for the Wii U succesor. |
I remember reaading your Zelda prediction and thinking I would not be surprised if it turned out to be acurate- Now i m thinking the % of it being right are much higher now- However, if Nintendo does hold back the "real" Zelda game for the Wii U I think it will be a huge mistake - Nintendo needs to think about its reputation, its credibility and relevance to both gamers and potental future custoers- If i buy another Nintendo home console it will not be at launch like I bought the Wii U- I ll wait a few years for it to prive itself , the library to grow and the price to drop- I will bet I am not the only persone thinkng that way- Conventional wisdom re Ninty home consoles wil be "to wait as long as it takes" before buying. If they want to have any chance at momentum for their next console launch they will have to invest a TON of cash to have great games ready to go and lots of them - a great console that people can t resist etc. But there is no way the current leadership at Ninty wll make that kind of investment up front-
As good a product and as good of library as the 3ds has, its sales are drpping fast- we all no what the Wii U situation is and even the wii software sales, which has sold a fair amount (prob close to what the 3ds has sold ) over the last 1.5-2 years has dropped considerably. For this fiscal year for Ninty they are looking at either down arrows or flat arrows- even if they surprised everyone and the Wii U software and hardware sales grew by a hefty % and the 3DS sales picked up more than most expect- they still would not "move the needle" nealry enough- both of thse consoles would have to insane # s for them to ean an operating proft this year-
