I don't believe that, I think this is a falacy that fans of a company can fall into because their don't view the general market like the average consumer does. The GameCube and Dreamcast for example improved on virtually every mistake made on their predacessors, yet neither was successful. You can also see this in other industries, Microsoft releases a Windows Phone that has all/most of the features of an iPhone ... but it's like 4 years after they needed that product. Timing has a lot of to do with this market, the average consumer doesn't care about the Nintendo brand any more than they care about the ketchup brand, all they know is that the Playstation and XBox is offering them exactly what they want and when they wanted it. It's a "you snooze, you lose" world. To counter that Nintendo needs to offer something dramatically different IMO. I hate to say it but they're probably going nowhere with a conventional console. NX needs to bring something legitimately different to the table. Sony/MS have already monopolized basically the market for a traditional console and what that means today (lots of dudebros shooters and sports games). |
What do you dont belive!?
Wii U had high price, terrible and misunderstood marketing, week launch and 1st year lineup, software drought, not appealing gamepad...you don't believe that NX with great and strong marketing, great and strong launch lineup, affordable price, solid gimmick...will not sell better than Wii U!?
