If it truly moved, there'd be more of an install base on PS4 than there is now. Plus, Xbox isn't doing so hot either. It moved, but not to PS or XB, it moved to mobile and more casual options. Wii and DS came at the right time. Apple's iphone wasn't out yet and back then, a DS or a Wii was very innovative at the time but it only did games. When apple arrived and smartphones and tablets became huge, many users moved on to those devices. Nintendo tried to recapture these players with Wii U's tablet like functionality but it was too little too late. Like I said, western 3rd parties don't sell well on Nintendo platforms even if they are suppored (Gamecube), and Nintendo really isn't a consumer whore. |
The problem is you are counting casuals as some sort of miracle that will help the NX succeed. I don't give a flying fuck about them. I want real games as do many core Nintendo gamers. Wii was a sales sucess yes, but game wise what did it offer to the core gamer compared to a PS3 or 360?
If i want to play casual games i'll play them on my mobile like the casual gamers. Nintendo needs to stop targetting those gamers as they are unstable income.
