Forums - Nintendo - Wii U Sports with Wiimote+ bundle is needed

Heh, that actually might work. Maybe Wii Sports, Wii Play, and Nunchuk with Motion.

Yeah, let's confuse the market even more with a game that needs another controller.

For once, I actually agree with you, but still got me laughing. lol

Nah, Nintendo doesn't need that.

Mario Kart, and 3D mario this holiday, with one or two surprises and advertising will do it. It will make a comeback with those factors.

If Nintendo doesn't really bring it this holiday, I don't see them making a comeback with the Wii U. I don't remember a system ever suddenly "springing back to life" super late in it's lifecycle.

If it doesn't do well this holiday, then it's ceiling will be around 40 million.




They might as well just throw everything and the kitchen sink at the system this holiday.

Wii Sports U + Wiimote + nunchaku + free digital download of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD (limited time offer) + 32GB storage

$299.99 this fall, throw as much staff as neccessary to get Mario Kart U out this holiday too (put all of freaking EAD on it if that's what it takes). 

I think PS3 drops to $199.99 this holiday with a game bundled, 360 will probably have some crazy bundles too, these are the bigger headaches for Nintendo.

The PS4/720 early adopter is likely not a big Nintendo fan to begin with, their favorite franchises are more likely to be things like Call of Duty, Battlefield, Madden NFL, FIFA, etc. which don't resonate that well on Nintendo platforms. So there's not a ton of competetion there IMO, these are just two different markets. 

What's killing the Wii U in part is that parents/kids see the PS3/360 as cheaper and with a far wider variety of software and tons of cheap titles. You can walk into any Best Buy and find tons of pretty darn good PS3 or 360 games for $19.99 a pop. I got Soul Caibur V, Uncharted 3, Lego Star Wars Saga, and God Of War III all brand new for $19.99 a pop and could pick up another PS3 (160GB model) for $199.99 if I felt like it. 



Nintendo should focus on getting Zelda out the door.

I know I'm holding out till it releases. They should scrap the 8GB and introduce

a 64GB version as the premium when the time is right.

OP is right.

I've been saying this ever since the Nintendo Land reveal.



I LOVE ICELAND!

I dont think it would do much tbh, that fad is dead and gone now.
