| mountaindewslave said: why ask such a silly question? people are still massively interested in Nintendo's dominant handheld and just last generation Nintendo was the leader in home consoles obviously the current issue is their actual system, people don't seem to love it. but the interest and following of Nintendo in terms of brand and IP's and characters is obviously alive and well literally the majority of Nintendo consoles have been successful and most of them did not have THAT blockbuster of third party support |
I was asking mostly in two regards:
-Nintendo's home console. I believe Nintendo will apply the Fusion idea next gen, but if the sales of the home console part are WiiU levels or less again, we might just see Nintendo focusing on handhelds that could be connected to the TV. Most of those AAA titles from 3rd party I was talking about sell better on home console, so substituing them should impact the home console sales more.
-Nintendo's ability to create new IPs. If Nintendo wants to replace games like Assassins Creed, Dark Souls, Uncharted or GTA, Nintendo will have to create something that attracts both their existing userbase and fans of those titles that may pick up a NX just to try them. Examples like Splatoon are astounding successes, while cases like S.T.E.A.M. are not. Specially with genres prefered in the west, like the shooters, action adventures or the WRPGs, Nintendo needs to create new franchises or at least make attractive spinoffs to catter to those audiences that don't normally go for Nintendo content because their favourite genres are elsewhere.
