Four things:

1) Market the console

2) Release the delayed software including Pikmin 3, The Wonderful 101, Wii Fit and Game & Wario

3) Cut the price by $50 in November to coincide with number 4) below...

4) Launch 3D Mario and Mario Kart 8

I've said it on these boards before, doing the above will see the Wii U having an installed userbase between 10m and 15m before the end of the year.

i agree with 1,2 and 4 but i doubt they will cut the price in november since there will be black friday/holiday sales, i think they will either cut the price in aug/sept when wind waker hd releases or spring of next year if sales pick up



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

This side of the forum is gettin ridiculous. The same 3 or 4 back to back from users that have already made or were involved in past version. Didnt Monster Hunter Ultimate release? Why isnt anyone talking about it?

Maybe the same things mentioned in the last 100 threads this month? Maybe? Or should we state them yet again?



Market it better in U.S

Keep the games coming.


saying them one last time will be better

Simple, better marketing. I sort of notice something, Sony show more updates on their progress on Playstation compare to Nintendo. Nintendo rarely post a video on their youtube and that video usually end up being filler.

Nintendo Market plan sucks, they don't keep consumers up to date with their progress. Their like bears in hibernation and only come out when big events take place like E3.

Nintendo need to break that habit and show their face more.

If I wasn't so lazy, I'd just copy-paste my answers from the last few threads we've recently had on this same topic. Too bad this forum doesn't have a "sort threads by thread creator" feature, or I'd find them in a snap.

It's not looking good for Nintendo right now... with major third party AAA games completely skipping the console, and much more powerful "true" next-gen consoles just around the corner, the Wii U is going to have the plug pulled on it faster than the Dreamcast at this rate.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Oh, good Lord. Seriously? There are like ten identical topics on this per week.



The Screamapillar is easily identified by its constant screaming—it even screams in its sleep. The Screamapillar is the favorite food of everything, is sexually attracted to fire, and needs constant reassurance or it will die.
