Give people a more convincing reason to upgrade rather than "hey look, we're nintendo and we got a new system, its not much more powerful than your current system and costs a lot more and we are not expecting half the multi-platforms, but please have pity on us and buy it anyway".... which is pretty much what they do all the time. |
Costs a lot more? I don't know where you live, but not in the US. Wii U released $350, which is $50 less and a year early than any other platforms. Now it is currently $100 less. As for the Wii, it was $250 day one when the PS3 was $600. Maybe GC cost more, but that had more powerful hardware.
I would love to see some proof that Wii or Wii U "cost a lot more" lol.

u misunderstood him
"its not much more powerful than your current system and costs alot more and we are not expecting half the multi-plats"
what he meant by that is Wii U is not a huge upgrade in terms of power compared to PS3/360 but costs $100 more and has less games being released so PS3/360 owners have little reason to choose own a Wii U, unless they are huge fans of Nintendo games.

Well yeah, I agree with that. I definitely think Nintendo dropped the ball when it was up to them to show off the Wii U holiday 2011 through most of 2012 timeframe. They could have shown something that visually seperated it from the 360/ps3 and got people excited, but they didn't.
