I have no doubt NX will be massively successful in Japan. And yes, there are tons of tablets out there but not many of them have Smash Bros., 3D Mario, and Breath of the wild. That's the stupidest defense for any argument. Games sell hardware, not the idea of the hardware. NES wasn't more powerful than the Master System, but the games sold very well because they were good games. Word of mouth went around and NES became huge. That's not the case all the time but Nintendo has done this several times.

Same for mobile. Yes, runners have been made before, but none are official Mario or Nintendo themed runners. Nintendo has brand power and IP strength on their side. All NX needs to do is turn a profit on day 1. Which Kimishima said, NX wont' be sold at a loss. Success doesn't have to mean units sold. It first and foremost means that your product is profitable. The Gamecube was slain by PS2 and even the Xbox but you know what, Nintendo still churned out hundreds of millions of profit every quarter during that period. It's about profitability.

I wish that were true. If it was, the Wii U would have sold way better because its library is phenomenal.

I'm excited as hell for this. I'm just hoping this will sell well. I don't want to see my favourite video game company failing anymore.
