They've opted for a more affordable console with an established selection of titles available for a cheaper price. To this point obviously haven't cared that the content is HD or not. However, when there are no more titles available for them on the Wii, what will they do? I feel as if they don't go for the Wii U, they may go for the 360 or PS3 for similiar reasons as they got the Wii in the first place. Otherwise, there's other reasons of course they may go for X1 or PS4 instead. Additionally, it may be the case the gaming needs are met by 3DS or even iOS/Android... |
No, the console is just too expensive, the bundles are great but the perceived price is too high, Nintendo should put out a 250 U$ bundle with an old Lego title, like The hobbit to take advantage of the 3rd movie this holiday. It needs a bigger price difference to get more of the Wii userbase onboard, right now people look at the options and they don't see Wii U +2 games at 300 vs PS4 without games at 400. They only see at 300 with litle hype vs 400 with a lot of hype.
