Can you link me to that thread? Heres a quick look at the first Zela game to arrive on the respective platforms and their estimated userbase at launch+12months which followed. Something I think is more useful then just looking at the systems lifetime sales, since Zelda (like most games) is frontloaded and sells well over 50% of its lifetime total in its first 12months on the market. Gamecube- (10m-15m) Zelda Wind Waker - 4.6m Just to point out how much more balanced things are compared to comparing Gamecube22m, versus N64's 34m and Wii's 100m. Zelda Wii U will likely launch on a userbase of 14-17m, quite similar to the other first releases. If it was on PS4/X1, it would launch on a userbase of 65m-85m. I ignored handheld because OP didn't speak about handhelds. Nintendo could produce a handheld and still go third party for home consoles. |
Sorry, my phone sucks at posting links otherwise I would. It should be on one of the first few pages in the Nintendo discussion.
But if Nintendo were to exit the console market and still support handhelds, they would give 100% support to the handheld to make sure it remains a viable platform.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
