Forums - Nintendo - Are Pikmin 3 FW sales proof enough for you that the Wii U is not doomed?

walsufnir on 22 July 2013

Nintendo-guys, I have to admit I don't follow WiiU-news very often - when will the big games for WiiU release? Wind Waker HD? Mario Kart? What else is there to expect by Nintendo? It is sad to see how the make the same mistake they did with 3DS. The 3DS shows us that people still like Nintendo a lot, they even like their daring ideas and they just want the usual Nintendo-games, yet they still don't deliver :(

Thanks! Mario Kart next year? Damn, Nintendo :( They really should hurry or the WiiU will be another Gamecube. Which isn't bad, don't get me wrong. But Nintendo deserves more success, in my opinion. But WW this year sounds good!

Pikmin 3 sales have a doable drop and Wii U sales place second yet again according to Famitsu!

See what one big game can do?


That's what defines as a "big" game now? It's probably going to struggle to get to 250k.

WW or just in Japan? What did the last two games do in Japan?

What would you consider a big game? Pikmin 3 is the biggest game the Wii U has gotten since launch. It has also been in development for close to a decade and his the third one in a series of 3.

 

What am I missing?


Really doesnt say much for the wiiu at this point..

Well, for VGChartz the WiiU is not what it actually is. It should be way ahed of the PSP in this week chart, but isn't:

See the PSP sales for week of 13th July 2013

Real World VGChartz
1654 1654
19782 19782
5721 5721
27157 45872

I mean, WTH?

WiiU is an abomination.

To say it will Dominate this coming gen is laughable.

First to worst.
