NSMB Wii is singlehandedly the Wii's savior in Japan. Seriously, PS3 would be beating it to a pulp right now had it not been for that game. Now Nintendo just needs to find that next smash hit evergreen title that will continue to carry it, as NSMB Wii cannot do the job forever. Perhaps Wii Relax will be that game.
Don't forget that PS3 has had, what two price drops in Japan to get to this level? The Wii baseline is partially based on the 20,000 Yen price point.

WF+, Mario Kart and WSR are also engrained in the top 30. Actually, even Taiko 2, Momotaru 2010, Smash Brawl and the Susume reprints make an appearance now and then. Wii's been coasting on evergreens basically this whole Q1. The ~30k baseline makes like no sense to me personally, Japan is NOT sending Nintendo the right message. :/ |
It's still pathetic compared to early 2008 and ultimately Nintendo have got the correct message. If you look at the year overall they're giving a lot of support for Wii in Japan. It's the lack of third parties that make it look bleak in spite of that.
A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

The PS3 would never have sold this well at it's launch pricepoint. Or even after it's first price cut... No matter what games it had. Now it's finally at a comparable pricepoint with Wii in Japan (and it is having the best 3rd party support out of the 3 consoles in Japan) we are finally seeing some competition.
It's excellent how the PS3 is doing in Japan both hardware-wise and software-wise despite only selling half of what the Wii has total.

I partly blame Nintendo for that too honestly. Yes they're doing a lot, but if the schedule's like this, they need to do more. Whatever it takes really, there's no good reason for Wii's barren 3rd party lineup...

Tbh: so what? If it had 1 price drop of 200 dollars, would that make it more or less impressive?
One could easily say: The 360 has had two price cuts as well, and it's still dead in the water.

Don't forget a major redesign/rebranding, multiple colors and hardware bundles for like every semi-big game. Wii and 360 have done the latter two as well, but not near to the same degree. Sony really does EVERYTHING they can to get the collectors to keep dipping...
