| Rogerioandrade said: Still only very few games, it doesn´t even reach 1% of the 3ds library, which currently has 1254 games. And most of them are different games, even if they´re on the same franchise. What I mean is that the 3DS library had way, way more to offer than the WiiU library. There were a ton of Jrpgs, puzzles, strategy games, rhythm games, visual novels, applications etc. The 3ds even had ports of stablished fighting franchises like Street Fighter, Tekken, Dead or Alive, BlazBlue..... The WiiU failed because its game library did not have much to offer in terms of variety. Game releases were sparse, at best. That´s not to say that the WiiU did not had great games, but their number wasn´t huge enough to generate interest among non-Nintendo fans. See how the 3ds is still selling around 60k weekly? That´s not only due to its low price but also due to its library of games. This really highlights how different their library were. Apples and oranges, basically. All other points in the article are accurate. Thankfully, the dark ages of Nintendo seems to be over |
I'm not saying that the similarity of games between the 3ds and Wii U hurt the 3ds in any way but rather almost exclusively the Wii U as the 3ds would be a much cheaper option to play said games.
