Well that is completely subjective. Imo there is not a single game worth playing on WiiU right now (I hope my opinion will change once XCX comes out). |
Sorry, unless you played all the games available on the WiiU, you cant know that yourself.
Is the WiiU overpriced? No, because people are buying it. They believe that the games,
the ease of use, the backwards compatibility, the cost savings:
free online,
runs more green,
backwards compatibility games and accessories
all in one way or another offers value at its current price.
However, people who are fans of games from Activision, EA, Rockstar, and many other
bigger western or eastern 3rd party publishers, will not buy the WiiU at any price if
the console does not get the majority of those publisher's mainstream titles. That does not
make the console overpriced, it makes it not interesting.
So why should Nintendo lower the console's price if its not going to get the gamers
looking for games from those publishers? It would be a dumb business move.
Nintendo is counting on gamers who are willing to pay for the current price will also
be willing to buy alot of their software and accessories. In that regard Nintendo correct.
Amiibos selling well, game controllers and adapters selling well, and games are selling well.
Profit. Just like, Movie theaters make money from selling the popcorn and drinks, than
tickets to the movies themselves.
