This is the best reply to anything that I have ever seen in my entire life.



Clearly any of the Mario titles they have lined up will be great money-makers. I also think that Wii Party U (or whatever it's title is) will do quite alright. Most likely better than Wii Fit U. And of course SSB4.

I don't think know an Ice Climbers re-boot wouldn't make much money.



People, as hyped I'm for X and as cool as Bayonetta is, these barely count as 'big guns'.

A real Wii Sports III would be the answer. But as Nintendo is stupid and don't want to win this gen, WiiFitU, WiiPartyU and Mario Kart 8 have to do for the moment.

Depending on how it turns out, X could be a massive weapons platform for the system, same with Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem.

But of the potential Wii U titles, Smash Bros. for Wii U (horrible name) remains the biggest.

i think x would push japanese market.....

SSB will push sales on USA and Europe....

how about a KIRBY galaxy for wii u?



 

i think Mario Kart 8 and Smash 4 are going to be the games that seriously drive that system. now to what extent exactly, i can't predict.



Well, in general, I would say Mario Kart is the biggest series, and the one that will drive the most sales.

Let's see, what else? Wii Sports U, Star Fox United, Metroid Origins, Zelda U, Dixie Kong Racing, and Yoshi's World.

Nintendo's biggest gun is Pokemon U with NFC cards or figurines. There isn't a licence to print money any bigger than that right there. And we'll see that either next year or 2015.


this. why it hasn't happened yet is beyond me.



X and Smash Bros.

There are some games that could be, but not if Nintendo doesn't ever announce them.
