i think they have done a terrible job at marketing the wii u this gen. I also think the low out put of games for both wii u and 3ds contabited to low sales early in the life cycle and that has had a really negative impact on sales. Im in the uk and may shops either have very little or no nintenndo stock and that is somthink nintendo must adress. There is no point spending vast amout of money at this stage in marketing they must be srewed and squeeze out as much profit they can and start again next gen


This!!!

The marketing is atrocious!

As for game output, I think it's an issue they reckoned years ago, but that's not something you can fix overnight. They have been adressing this issue for the last years, Kyoto additional new HQ building, hiring like crazy in Kyoto, Tokyo, @Monolith, @Retro, @ Next Level, @HAL (with new, better, larger office) outsourcing & getting help from 3rd parties... so huge steps are being made but it takes time to hire quality staff, re-organise teams & make games!

IMO they should spend a buck or two & buy medium sized 3rd party companies, like Platinum, Level5... & when capcom has lost even more value, raid the crap out of them!

As for spending $$ on marketing today, it's always a good thing if you want to turn things around, but it's not enough they need to do way better marketing so I would change of company because whoever is working to them now is dreadful!
