| fatslob-:O said: Yes, I know that the WII U can still do price drops but that won't make the system more enticing to purchase ... Price drops really only work when the system has tons of momentum to rely on and if consumers find the platform unattractive at $300 then what difference will $200 make ? The sales boost from MK8 is wearing off and the same is bound to happen with Smash. As for Zelda, I'm wary on that one cause of art style issues ... I don't expect the WII U to fall off the cliff next year but I am expecting a decline yet as for 2016 I don't see much of a future for the WII U or a lack thereof a future ... |
Wii U hardware still hasn't returned to its pre-MK8 baseline after 20 weeks, despite a three month game drought. This game and Smash will make it well positioned as a family/secondary console, but $299 is too much to ask of either of those audiences, so a lower price will help. That's how I see it, anyway.
