I love my Wii U, but it's not hard to see where they made missteps. I hope Nintendo will return to the Red Ocean one day.


Don´t you mean blue ocean?

Blue Ocean is their strategy to dive into unexplored markets (like the Wii) instead of the Red Ocean that's an already explored market (aka Xbox One/PS4)

I'd just like to see them try to take on Sony and Microsoft head on again.

I don't think they'll do. I mean, they tried just that with the Wii U at launch with an impressive third party lineup, but it didn't work out.

I rather believe they will go even more their own way, buying some IP and developing some other ones along the way. If it's a success, third party will come back, if not, they'll be independent enough to survive without them.


Releasing a console that had a different architecture, last generation power, a gamepad instead of a regular controller, no achievement/trophy system, 32GB of internal storage etc... it NOT competing directly with PS4 and Xbox One. In no way did Nintendo try to take them on head to head with that business plan.

If Nintendo takes them on, it's going to be with an apples to apples strategy. Like Wolfpack, I hope they do because that's when they're creatively at their best imo.
