Either that or they could do it as a holiday promotion starting on Black Friday and use Pikmin 3, Wonderful 101, Wind Waker HD and Wii Party U. |
The problem with that is none of the games in your initial list are a patch on either Metroid Prime or Starfox Adventures in terms of popularity or hype. There's no doubt that the 2013 games can sell themselves, but to whom?
There's only so many games that 4 million can buy, and Nintendoland doesn't seem to be inspiring many to take the plunge. They need to lower the barrier to entry and one way to do that is give people options, let them pick up the system with a game of their choice and don't make them pay for stuff they don't want. Every time someone picks up a WiiU with Pikmin 3 they create a potential new buyer of W101, WWHD, Mario and DK etc. Nintendo need to do this to ensure they get ROI on their upcoming big franchises and create more fertile ground for third parties.
