Let me make this clear, the Wii U was not a bad console in any way. It just had too much stigma against it from the people who were butt hurt from the Wii/PS3 era. People are downright positive about the Switch. Although I don't know if it's enough either way though. I doubt Nintendo will be winning the generation. Nintendo needs crazy amounts of hype to win a generation. They have good hype, not great. You have to remember how much anger Nintendo provoked during the Wii era. They almost drove Sony to bankruptcy. Sony is still recovering and the PS4 isn't really all that profitable. Sony gamers were terrified of Nintendo claiming another generation since it would pretty much kill their favorite console maker. Microsoft still isn't much different. Investors there want Microsoft out of the gaming industry. Microsoft is O for four and they just aren't making money off the console wars. Nintendo by comparison is profitable every generation and they made money off of mini-game compilations which hardcore gamers revile with every fiber of their being. Their big reveal for E3 one year was Wii Fit... The only thing I'm shocked about is that gamers aren't still ready with the pitchforks and torches. |
I disagree..... Sony fell off because of their misteps mostly not just because of the Wii being a more popular option back then.....
