Forums - Nintendo - Describe Wii U in Three Words

" bait and switch"

 

Up to wii u launch: here are the games, no software droughts like before, commitment to 3rd party support and Ninty is willing to release the unfinished wii u before it is ready 

immediatly after the holiday sales season:  most key games delayed for indefinitly and/ or till better sales environments exist, now not willing to release games probably more complete than the wii u was at launch, third party support evaporates due to poor selling environment and simply following Nintendo s own lead re the Wii U -  if Ninty is not going to support the Wii u till a later date yet to be determined then why in the world would 3rd parties support it-  the only group of people to lose out more than wii u launch purchasers ( like me buying one for my son's b-day) are the 3rd party dev s and publishers that did release games on the Wii u to date- their sales have been disasterous.  

 

For these core reasons plus researching Nintendo s past business practices- specifically console launch practices; it is obvious to me that most of us who purchased the Wii u from launch thru early January were the recipients of a considerable bait and switch pulled off by Nintendo.

I hope they can make it up to us in the future but I will never buy anything again from Nintendo based on their words -

Games can and should tell stories and share ideas through their mechanics. This is the intrinsic element of the medium and this is how experiences should be crafted in video games. No company does this as well as Nintendo and their echoes from the past.
