no plans to buy game. Only thing bad about delay in my mind is that it means they will be working on this game for a few more months when they could be starting on a new Metroid game or something else.

As for the WIi U's deal. The delay might be a good thing. THere are plenty of games imo this holiday season. Keeping a big good game ready for early 2014 when it would be a drought it might be good for the system.

I'm seriously having trouble how people think this is a good business move seeing as how 3D mario will be getting smashed by the likes of bf4, COD, and gt6 all together near each other plus the wii u also has to face some fierce competition this holiday which makes things worse.


lol, why? WiiU owners will buy the game and people will buy the system to get the game. DK is a smart move for next year. Which is still early considering its Feb! Your impossible 5mil total units prediction will not come true.

Just so you know the strength of 3D mario is currently weak considering nintendo opted out on a red ocean strategy so they don't have those new customers no more but instead they'll be fighting against COD or bf4.BTW delaying more games is bad considering how long the drought was.



I actually think it's a big deal. Nintendo lost a good game for the holiday in which it has to compete with brand new hardware.



Currently own:

 

  • Ps4

 

Currently playing: Witcher 3, Walking Dead S1/2, GTA5, Dying Light, Tomb Raider Remaster, MGS Ground Zeros

Yeah but your saying now its impossible to make 5mil, that makes me think you dont even think wiiu sales will be 4.5mil or something. Wats your prediction on life to date sales for wiiu by end of 2013?

It'll get close to 5mil but it ain't reaching it unless nintendo has some other moderate game in the pipeline. I think it will probably hit 4.85mil by the end of 2013.

cuz it is lol. 2 of nintendo main platformers next to each other isn't a good idea, and we will get the game early next year. its a smart move on nintendo pushing it back. Most WiiU owners have a 3ds and we have LoZ/Mario Party coming out as well. They can maintain sales thru early next year by doing this. Think outside the box
