hahaha you like angering non nintendo fans ay! ... the poll shows how many you have angered! .. lol

What can I say, some people can't handle the truth :P

To be honest I wish Nintendo also did their part in advertising, but you can't help to think that they are actually saving money by keeping their marketing small and letting the other two spend the big bucks.


true... but I also think it will boost wiiU.. because its gonna look hella attractive compared to those expensive machines with not many games .. and most of those games can be found on the ps360.. lol.. wiiU will have all the exclusives Nintendo games.. .. also MS/SONY shares the same target audience!..

Exactly. By the time the next-gen consoles launch, Nintendo will have planned a "second launch" for the U, with a slew of games to come out by that time and no sooner, kind of like they did when they launched DKCR, Epic Mickey, Epic Yarn, Just Dance, MJ the experience and a bunch of high-selling games in the same timespan.

I think they're going to do the same thing for the 2013 holiday season, in time for the launch of the next-gen consoles, so people going to the store for the PS420 will see them with gen 7 games, and will see the U with a slew of next-gen games and they will go nuts.

Posting the truth is anger? No.



You're right. I think that after the launch it will boost the sakes bit during the launch period it will drop off considerably.

You're right. As of now people look at WiiU and think "Nah, not interested."

However, once PS4 and 720 launch those same people will then say "Yeah, now I want a WiiU."



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

because people who camp outside apple stores for the latest model suddenly decide to buy an older model or a non-apple phpne entirely, last minute, right?

Nope, because the apple store only sells apple products, and advertisements don't only cater to campers.



Okay.. okay.. while we continue to get doomed Nintendo.. doomed wiiU.. for now let them PS360 fans enjoy the launching of their nextgen console... and lets let them build massive hype up in their minds.. the higher the hype the better!..

you are already happy.. you should let others be happy too!..

I believe Nintendo's strategy is the same as the 3DS... where it let the vita think it had a chance.. then once it released kick its ass! ... Nintendo will let the PS4720 think it has a chance.. and then kill it once it comes out.. by releasing their AAA first party titles they been working on secretly!.. such a brutal strategy really.. lol



 

Man that tablet looks HUGE on the girl's hands. LOL

And no, I don't think other consoles will boost the Wii U sales - if anything, they can be hurt even more if the new consoles bring new levels of awesome. The Wii U boost will come from games.
