With all due respect this kind of thinking makes no sense. You are acting as if these systems exist in bubbles, they dont the fact is alot of people are multiplat owners ESPECIALLY Nintendo consoles going by the sales of there recent systems. So Snake Ryu they have there exposure, sales fo the games they are in prove it. The idea that them being in Smash is really going to help them in any meaningful way is laughable, these arent characters from some obscure RTS game. If people want those games they will get the system to play them on or already have said system. I promise most people if the respective game comes to Ninty systems or not.


The most hilarious thing about that line of thinking is that by the time those other companies reep the imaginary benefits of that "free advertizing," Nintendo will have already gotten their sale. How were people exposed to Ryu? By spending extra money on DLC for the Nintendo game they bought for their Nintendo console. At that point, who the hell cares if someone goes out and buys a PS4 for SF5 afterwards? They already own a Wii U/3DS. Nintendo already won. That guy isn't suddenly selling their Wii U/3DS and their copy of Smash because they've somehow "seen the light."


good point, i might add Nintendo profits how much with Ryu? Especially sice he would be a newcomer...

$4 for WiiU or 3DS / $5 for Bundle

By Years end, 4mil SSBU copies and 7mil SSB3DS Minimum. Say pessimistic prediction and only 10-15% buy DLC. 

300k buy him for 3DS and another 300k for WiiU (600k x $4) and 400k people buy him bundled (400k x $5).

Thats a whopping $4.4mil on 1 character thats pessimistic prediction with at least 5 DLC character Total!

Dont think it does matter when Nintendo is Collecting :p
