Nintendo should burry Nintendo Land, stop selling it, stop talking about it and pretend it never existed.

Wii Sport was such a system seller, Nintendo Land is an extreme failure. With the NSMBU bundle, the Wii U is finally packaged with something people care about. Nintendo Land has to disappear.


Couldn't agree more. The further Nintendo runs away from NL and of tying the value of the system to the albatross that is the Gamepad that better off they will be. Oh and stay away from this love affair with Gamecubesque games..No one cared about them then, they care even less about them now.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

like Oni-Link i actually did enjoy NintendoLand and it is better than a bunch of shovelware out there, hell its better than WIisports IMHO. However, reviews mean crap because Nintylands main purpose was to show off the gamepad and move systems. They showed it off, but judging from sales very few cared. SO now they are bundling it with a game that people do care about Mario. it is what it is.

i 2nd this, dont know why that system gets so much grief, because it got its ass kicked by PS2 and to a lesser extent Xbox? i thought games were important.

LoL. Maybe you should look again at those sales, bud. They seem to agree with me. The games and the console itself.

They should have kept NL in the bundle- Nintendo just seem to be very cheap when it comes to the Wi u marketing- Other than Pikmin 3 and to an extent Luigi, they have not really marketed the Wiii U or any of its games to any great effort and/or effect-

They will sell some cosoles this holiday and they will sell some games too- they will make a big deal out of the % increase but ultimately sales will fgall flat again if they don t market the console and keep good games coming - The fact they moved DKTF back to 2014 makes me think some/or all of the big Nintendo games slated for 2014 (many thinking they will be Spring 2014) will be pushed back much than anyone is expecting
