I feel the same, if they don't launch Zelda BotW on Wii U I'm done with them. But you and I, and the rest of member of this site and others, are the minority and we have top accept that we don't represent the whole gaming market. Cancelling the Wii U version of BotW may mean them losing a few hundred consumers (and it remains to be seen how many of them would end up buying the new console at a later date), but if that means selling several thousand units more of Switch to the general users, they may find that it's worth it. |
I don't know. I'm not sure how much of the Wii U owners would drop out if Nintendo instead releases it as a Switch exclusive. I guess I could only put myself as an example as I've been a supporter of Nintendo since I started gaming on the SNES (along with the Genesis). I would still support them if they do cancel the Wii U version (though I doubt it would happen) as I can see it from both sides. Business wise it's hard not to justify it since it can boost Switch sales. Or maybe I'm just a little more tolerant than others since gaming isn't the majority of my life so I can't play as much as I used to so investing my time and money is more important. Plus, Nintendo is more than just Zelda for me. There's Mario, Smash, Splatoon, Xenoblade, Metroid, Fire Emblem, etc. idk maybe I'm the minority of the minority. Then again, can we really determine that 13 million is the current hardcore Nintendo fans? What about the 3DS? What about the lack of awareness and marketing of the Wii U? There are people out there who still don't know what it is. i guess it depends ultimately. I get your guys' feelings but I don't know if I would even go that far because I've ultimately enjoyed my Wii U despite getting it late and the possibility of no mainline Zelda (though, again, I doubt it).
