You know, at least in 2006 the Sony and MS fanboys would put forward some sort of argument to justify their silly opinions. It saddens me that they've been so depressed over the success of the Wii that they can do no more than to morosely state their opinion.

YAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where's Oniyide when you need to tell him "I told you so!"


you dont have to tell me nothing, i never said it wouldnt come out, or it would come out. I did say i could care less since ill be getting this on PS3 regardless.

I provided the link. I said it was crazy to think it wouldn't be released, you didn't agree nor disagree, but your failure to give an opinion was shady. And your defense of no mention of big games like BOII was so off.

So yeah, I do say I told you so, since you were the one saying I was nuts.

@ritchardhutnik. A console is not necessarily a home console. The DS is a portable console. However, you are right that angry birds sells gangbusters on something that is not a console, not even a portable one, but a tablet/smartphone. So though you're ultimately right, it's misleading to say that portables can't be consoles. Just wanted to clarify.



That's a good start. If they have BO2 for WiiU launch, then that's a good start for the so-called 'hardcore' gamers!

Personally, I don't mind, but options don't hurt. The more 3rd party support, the better.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Too slow VicViper!

(Imagine the WiiU version selling over 2,000,000 units for a system which has an install base of 0! What's THAT attach rate eh?)

What?!

Mario, WiiU Fit and Nintendo Land will probably sell not only that but twice that amount or more, but the third party titles don't have a chance.

You do know that Just Dance 2 and 3 (on Wii) have both broken 9 million, right? And that Just Dance 3 is likely to make it to 10 million, making it only the 15th game not made by Nintendo to reach that milestone on a single platform? (other non-Nintendo games to make that milestone include three Grand Theft Autos, three Gran Turismos, five Call of Duties, Kinect Adventures, Halo 3, and The Sims for PC)

Assassin's Creed, on the other hand, has only ever sold 5 million copies on one platform once, and that was the original AC on Xbox 360. While it is certainly possible for ACIII to sell more than 5 million on Wii U, I wouldn't count on it, if only because it'll have to share with 360 and PS3 - I can see it managing maybe 4 million, if lucky.

Having said that, I could see Lego City Undercover making 5 million, as it seems to bring together Lego and GTA, to a degree. Dragon Quest X also has a reasonable chance, especially if released in the west (I'm thinking 4.5 million in Japan, another million in the west). And ZombiU, based on what we've seen, has real potential.

The problem with Just Dance is that it will also appear on the Wii, which will be the version that sells the most, by miles. Have you seen its sales on the 360 and PS3? It has 1.75 mil on the Xbox360 and 0.34 on the PS3. I'm sorry but, even though the WiiU version may sell better than the Xbox360 one, I won't reach the 5 mil claimed by Salnax.

I agree with you about Assassins Creed.

Dragon Quest X is a wild card because it will launch first on the Wii and also because it's more like an MMO than a traditional JRPG.

I admid that the Lego game has potential, and the other Lego games have sold well. We'll see.

The thing about Just Dance 4 is that the Upad's added feature could be the deciding point. Also, I know of quite a few people who play video games, and who like playing games like Just Dance when drunk. I could certainly see them buying a Wii U, and then buying Just Dance 4. Keep in mind that it'll sell strongly during the Christmas rush period. Just Dance 3 managed to sell over 9 million since 2011, despite lagging Wii sales, competition from 360 and PS3 versions, and it being just a periodic update. What happens when a game adding significant new features, on a completely new and "cool" system, gets launched alongside games like NSMBU and NintendoLand (referring, here, to people who buy the system for the cool multiplayer stuff).

While you're right that 5 million isn't guaranteed, at least early on, it's likely that it'll come close at worst, and it has a serious chance to get much higher than 5 million. It all depends on how well the Wii U itself performs, really - if it captures strong mainstream interest, bet on Just Dance 4 selling really well alongside it. Heck, there's a strong chance that retail bundles will be made that bundle it in with whatever the official bundle comes with (that is, Gamestop, for instance, will sell bundles including that game, because they know it'll sell well).



@Aielyn: There are 2 things to consider:

1- The sales of Just Dance will be determined by the sales of WiiU. How many consoles will Nintendo sell?

2-The PS3 and Xbox versions of Just Dance cost more than the Wii version. The WiiU version will probably the same as the HD versions. Will people buy that instead of the cheaper Wii version, given that they already have the console?

Well that's not a surprice at all. All the older CoD's were on the original Wii, so why wouldn't the new entries of CoD make their way to Wii U?

Great news for shooter fans.



Oh my god. I am so sorry to hear this. Truly tragic news that another console is tainted by this franchise.
