You may have misunderstod me.. I say 2 things.. First I state that the casuals will start entering this gen.. (Not that they will buy a WiiU) Just the 100% pure fact.. That they haven't entered gen 8.. and 2015 will be the year when they start come.. (this can not in any way be up for debate) Then I say that i believe that WiiU will get are good part of them (becourse they by far.. as I see it... have the best offer to people just wanna have fun) and therefor the double sales.. So It's a fact.. and a prediction.. kind of.. but I offcourse hope you can see it to.. That WiiU may stand pretty good with that group of gamers 1. I have named the "reasons" many times in the tread now.. come on.. They haven't "dive in" the Ps4 or One either... But they will for sure start to come.. The more "casual" player.. will start to enter the gen in 2015.. (and they made up of more than 50% last gen.. i don't know how many.. just a number.. but normal people buys the console.. phone.. tablet.. they like at the moment they buy it.. when lookin at price and things.. in this case mostly games available and services.. usefullness) And as i see it.. all things point at WiiU for that group.. (And don't just take my word for it.. Look at Wii.. MK Wii.. Look WiiU games rating.. Look at how 3DS totally destroy Sony's handheld.. There is in fact a marked for Nintendo) 2. I was answering.. "They do not have a constant release schedule" And I say they do not need one.. future buyers will look more at whats available.. Than what comes next year 3. Sorry.. i thouht you knew a was talking about WiiU.. :) WiiU is the cheapest console.. and it could very well get a pricecut more this year. (and casuals also look at what things cost a month.. so when they compare prices they will also include pay for online on the "alternative consoles") And parents is offcourse big part of "the casual segment".. and are mostly paying.. So I do not say "some will just happend" I say "some always happen (the casuals entering the gen) and I Believe that WiiU is the best offer for them.. you ask me why.. and I say.. the same.. Games. price. brand. experinces.. |
You still aren't saying why they will come in 2015, you just keep saying they will. Once again, what is different today from a month ago that will cause more casuals to come?
1. The casual player hasn't dived in yet, therefore they will in 2015 is not a reason.
3. I knew you were talking about the Wii U. I wanted to know what reasons parents would buy it in 2015 that they didn't have in 2014. If you said your predictions were based on the assumption of a price cut it would make more sense. I'd still disagree, but it would be more reasonable. Now you are saying there just "could" be a price cut. If there is no price cut, do you expect Wii U sales to double in 2015?
Okay, games, price, brand, experiences. Now which of these will change significantly in 2015 in order to cause the Wii U to double in sales? Your argument seems to focus on already released games, free online, and cheaper hardware than the competition. But that was all true in 2014, so why should the sales situation change in 2015?
