Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo on marketing, purposely delayed Wii U launch games to spread out releases

why would nintendo do that

To keep interest in the platform sustained, and because they're the only ones putting games on the platform that are worth a damn.

Be fair, Ubisoft are at least trying...



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Then when 3rd parties don't support the system as strongly citing low software sales as the reason, everyone will complain that 3rd parties just hate Nintendo.


I am confused why people keep saying this. It is more expensive these days meaning you need to put your games on as many systems as possible. As long as wii u is accepted by core gamers, a strong lineup and variety comes, and wii u stays futher away from the shovelware and casual image wii had third parties will see enough sales.



One more thing to complete my year = senran kagura localization =D

Right. And other games are coming along from third parties (MH Tri Unlimited and *some* worthwhile multiplats). What i was trying to impart with my last post was that Nintendo's finally figured out that they need to be ready to carry their platforms by themselves. No more "windows to give third parties a chance."



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

The idea sounds reasonable.
