it would be stupid not to launch both at the same time
it would be stupid not to launch both at the same time
They did it before with Twilight Princess and it worked.if it worked the first time, why wouldn't it work the second time?
People who bought the Wii U for this game can wait another week or two for it. Just like the people who bought a GameCube in 2005 or 2006 for Twilight Princess were willing to wait
And those people who didn't buy it for GameCube often to wait for the Wii, as I'm sure most people who are seeing this game are looking towards.
I'm not going to buy an NX at launch, mostly because I can't afford it at the moment. But I still have my Wii U, it still works great, and when the game comes out for Wii U, I'll buy it then. No harm, no foul.

Definitely not. Making Wii U owners wait longer would be a terrible move.

I surely am. I did the same for Twilight Princess and bought it on the Gamecube and enjoyed it. I would be fucking livid if they pulled shit like this.
Nah, they will probably either make a simultaneous release or a 1 week before release on NX.
Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

I didn't say nobody is gonna buy the wiiu version, I said nobody is gonna buy a WiiU for this game instead of a NX when the game is out. And with nobody I mean very very few people.

RolStoppable said: That would send the message that Nintendo thinks of the Wii U as a failure and a piece of trash. OP, you've got the right idea. A delayed release for Wii U would be good PR. |
Well, creating artifitial nessessity and gating content is something Ninty has excelled at with Amiibo and the fans love it.
Now, seriously. They already sent that message and I never mentioned the term "PR" or "good". T.T

I don't think screwing over an already frustrated userbase is the best PR move.
They've already confirmed at E3 that the NX version will have different (better most likely) graphics. So no one is really going to give a crap about the Wii U version.
And they already did this exact same thing with Twilight Princess and the Gamecube had a larger userbase so they could always do it again.
