| Michael-5 said: Maybe..... If the Mario Kart 8 bundle gets restocked (sold out everywhere), I can see WiiU sales sky-rocket. If the Mario Kart 8 bundle was a limited edition bundle, then WiiU will struggle to top Gamecube. ---- Either way I still think WiiU > GCN in terms of sales, console lifetimes are longer now, WiiU will be around more then 5 years (like Gamecube). |
I don't think Wii U will have a long life though. By the way Iwata talks, it seems they already have a plan for the next Console and they just have to make sure existing owners are happy. By the end of 2015, we will have Mario Kart, Smash Bros, 2D Mario, 3D Mario, Zelda, Yoshi, Kirby, Splatoon, Fire Emblem (?), X, Donkey Kong, Wario, Pikmin, Toad, Mario Party, Mario Maker, and possibly Star Fox. What's missing other than Animal Crossing, and Paper Mario?
Even if it has a normal 5 year life, it won't be supported much in 2017 just like GC in 2006. It has 2 1/2 more years of decent support I'd imagine.
