But it's equally hard to say that Nintendo games will be huge system sellers for the NX when the Nintendo systems sales went from 250 millions to 75 millions in a generation, while keeping those Nintendo games. So either people don't care about the Nintendo games anymore, or there is another reason behind this fall and this reason could very well be here with the NX too (mobile, third party, console competition...). The question is not "do Nintendo games sell consoles?", it's "how much?". And right now, it 2/3 less than a generation ago, so what will the next one be like ? |
Not really, its easy to look at DS/Wii & 3DS/Wii U and assume that Nintendo is on a massive decline but thats forgetting that DS/Wii was a massive increase over any previous generation.
Wii sold about 40 million more than the 2nd best selling Nintendo console and DS sold almost 40 million more than 2nd best selling Nintendo handheld and DS+Wii sold 150 million more than the previous generation.
Im not denying that 3DS/Wii U are the worst selling handheld & console by Nintendo but its not by some huge magnitude and it certainly comes down to more than simply Nintendo games not being system sellers.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
