Only if what you have is bad.(1)

Once you find something good, that works and consumers want... you stick to it, improve on it, and make it become associated with you.

 

Nintendo found the "good" with their wii nunchucks... wii sold like hotcakes.

Instead of makeing a new and better wii (wii 2), they just changed everything for no reason.(2)

(1) Not really. If they go the way you are pointing they will be fated to fight with MS for the second place everytime, at about 40M to each of them. The 100/83/80 only happened because of the Wii, and because SONY messed up PS3 launch.

(2) I disagree. Wii 2 would sell like crap. It was a genial move for the time, but it wouldn`t last. After some years of incredible sales, the Wii went down.

Why would nintendo useing Nunchucks be competiting with Xbox ?  Xbox has kinect... and you know what? kintect sucks ass.... its not useable for good gameplay. Wii Motes are usable for good gameplay.

Also look at trends.... look at what Occulus rift is doing to make a controller for VR, look at what Sony is doing as well.

Everyone is copying the concept Nintendo had... because it works, and it works really well.

 

Wii 2 would not have sold like crap... im like 95% sure it would have sold better than the Wii U.

Nintendo mis-managed their hardware developement and concept development for their console, and it bit them in the ass.
