$80 price cut, not Mario kart. You're vastly over estimating Mario Karts power here

WiiU isn't going to tell to anyone but Nintendo fans if all it has is an exclusive coming out once every few months and no third party to prop up the library.


No the price cut came months before MK7 and gave the 3DS a one or two week bump then sales dropped again, MK7 is what trigger the 3DS to sell decently as it gave it momentum and was then follow by other games like SM3DL, MH4, KH and all. No third party yet funny enough it so far looks like the only console with numerous releases in the run up to the holiday time and games you can't get elsewhere giving it its own identity, X1 has third party games but people are clearly opting for the PS4 versions which hurts it far more as that's meant to be a major strength of the platform. The Wii U doesn't tell fans Nintendo's Marketing does like it did with MK8, I don't think X1 and Wii U will be that far apart at all as sales go as normally it's one main console does well in a gen while the other two are neck and neck.

yes you are probably right.

It's very possible

It will be ps2 vs game cube and xbox all over again.
