Nintendo Consoles Are In A League Of Their Own.

 I don't think the post actually said that people only buy 1 or 2 games, simply that they only pick one up for one and 2 games. 

See that part at the end in quotations?  Those were his actual woords.  So he did say they only buy 1 or 2 games.  

One of my points was that when you buy a new console, you usally only grab one or two games at that time anyway.  So even if he did mean that, it applies to all consoles.  How many games do you buy the same day you buy a console?

"get a Wii U for 1 or 2 games you really wanna play and thats it." =/= You only buy one or 2 games on the Wii U. But its all semantics at the end of day, I can't speak on what JRPG meant.  I'll stick to my own argument that Nintendo systems or specifically the Wii U sells mostly on the merit of only 2-3 games.   To relate it back to the OP, this is why they are not in direct competition. They don't offer the breath of content found on other platforms but equally they're fandom is enough that core fans don't want to miss the next big entry in their main franchises.
