Splatoon a system seller? End of the Year conclusion JAPAN-Hell Yes!!! NA-Slightly EU-some countries barely

[tolu619]

I've read the first 11 pages of discussion and gotten tired of reading. Splatoon by itself isn't a system seller, but at least there's a Splatoon bundle (exclusive to BestBuy) so that should give the game some decent sales. THE LIBRARY of great exclusives that is slowly piling up on the Wii U IS the system seller, but the sales are likely to come in late, since most people seem to prefer it as a second console. I imagine a typical gamer sometime in 2016/2017 (let's just assume for the argument's sake that the NX comes 2017) deciding that he doesn't like most Nintendo games, but he should at least play Zelda Wii U, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Mario Kart and Fire Emblem X Shin Megami. I'm imagining this person doesn't see what Nintendo fans like about Smash bros, isn't interested in Pikmin's art style and just doesn't like platformers. This person might actually play Splatoon.
