You can have a break out hit system without women. Playstation 4 is going to surpass the Wii easily. Heck, if you really look at it, the Playstation 3 even nearly matched the Wii despite a disastrous start at $600 that basically nullified its first year on market. Switch is also already proving it, it is outpacing any other Nintendo system in sales. It has appeal to core gamers that Nintendo hasn't had in decades. It looks cool and it's relatively high end for a portable device. Switch is very different from the Wii and will continue to be throughout it's lifespan. And that's OK. This notion that Wii is the only way to ever sell anything with a Nintendo logo on it is simply not true. We are seeing a Nintendo system where Just Dance sells like shit and 1,2 Switch is not really breaking out at all as a big hit still breaking records. |
I don't think the PS4 is a breakout hit system to be honest. It's nowhere near the level of DS and Wii sales during gen 7. The DS regularly sold 500k+ units per week and shipped around 30m units two years in a row. So I agree with you that the Switch can be successful without women but to really become a massive seller like the DS it needs women on board, too.
(And it's not like only men buy Playstation consoles.)
