| generic-user-1 said: its not intended to move a lot of consoles by itself. nintendo is thinking in different ways. do i like mk8 enough to buy a wii u? no, do i like mk8 an bayo 2 enough 2 buy a wii u? still no? and what about smash, mk8 and bayo 2? yes! its all about staging up. ps4 and xbone cant work this way, because the sell on shortlived 3rd party games. will u buy titanfall if u get a xbone in 2 years? no, will u buy mk8 if u buy a wii u? we know the answer if we look at mk wiis sales. it sold 1.1m last year. |
So if Nintendo sucess is based on strong 1st party legs (that made it sell around 6.5-7M in 20 months) and Sony/MS doom is based on weak legs 3rd parties (that made them flop at about 9M and 5M in 8 months) I may be looking at the wrong numbers.
