| curl-6 said: Onwards and upwards; goes to show just how flawed the argument was 3DS + Wii U represented the total audience for Nintendo hardware/software and therefore Switch's maximum sales potential. |
Yep, having Nintendo's software split between two seperate ecosystems increases the likelihood that people would find each individual system unappealing. Just because someone didnt have a 3DS or Wii U doesnt mean that person wouldnt want a system that combines their software support.
It's not just 3DS+Wii U owners but also Vita owners who have migrated to Switch with it being a high end portable with a ton of indies, smaller Japanese games and various western ports.
Also Switch has been able to regain some of the Wii crowd with its motion controls, couch multiplayer and fitness/rhythm/party games like Just Dance, Super Mario Party & Ring Fit & Fitness Boxing all having success.
Brain Training recently released and I expect to see more of the DS era games like Nintendogs, Rhythm Heaven, Art Academy & Style Savvy in the next year or two.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
