A Nintendo game seeing some success on a Nintendo console is not indicative of anything.

 This game is the less Nintendo-like game that Nintendo has ever done, it doesnt make you think on them at all, Monolith style is very very different from Nintendo style. This game would have been equalliy succesfull if released by Ubisoft, in fact it would have been more succesfull, since Ubisoft would have made a way better marketing of the game than Nintendo. So yes, this is an indicative of something, what if Nintendo made a game like Dark Souls and it turns up to be succesfull on their consoles? wouldnt that be an indicative of something just because Nintendo did it even when the game is nothing like what Nintendo uses to do? It makes no sense.

Where did I ever say it was Nintendo-like?

And yeah actually it does make sense since, historically and currently speaking, the games that generally see success on a Nintendo console are, Nintendo published titles.

If you feel it indicates that JRPGS can succeed on the WiiU then please tell me why SMTxFE was pretty much dead out the gates in Japan and is going to struggle to even pass what XBX did in its first week in the same region? And this doesnt even take into account that its SMT, FE and Persona combined. At this point, it doesn't look like the game is going to do much better anywhere else. 

You are trying to say that people is buying XCX because it has the Nintendo name on it, wich is completely stupid, specially when a bunch of Nintendo games, even from well established franchises, have bombed in the system, XCX is not like any normal Nintendo game and it does not have any Nintendo Character, so is completely irrelevant if they did it, if a game like this is selling fine is a clear signal that there is a market for this kind of games on the console independently of Nintendo and that #FE comparison is lame, is like comparing Final Fantasy with Persona, both are JRPGS yet they are completely different and one sells 10 times more than the other.
