I think Nintendo is aware that a teaser trailer and nothing else was a bad move. They'd be insane not to think it's a bad move. But there must be a reason why they're so tight lipped about everything. Sure it's not my money but as history repeats itself, never count Nintendo out. 3DS is doing okay on the market, not the DS but it's still no small feat at 61 million. Something other handhelds still haven't achieved. The good news in all of this is NX won't be sold at a loss. That's Wii U's first misstep. They also said they're aware of what consumers are gaguing the price at. I think Nintendo is headed in the right direction but it isn't apparent now. Switch will alieveate many of Nintendo's 1st party issues, and their dedication to mobile games will help. I called people insane when they thought Pokemon Go would increase 3DS hardware and Software sales...I was dead wrong. It worked. XY, ORAS started charting #1, or 100K. I think this will play out fine for them. |
Being sold at a loss only has a big impact if people are actually buying the system, lol. If people aren't buying it in the first place, then that's not much of a problem.
Though from my understanding the loss on the Wii U wasn't that large per unit anyway.
