Goodnightmoon said: Am I the only one who thinks the real problem of the WiiU is not really the console power not even the gamepad but a very poor marketing mixed with a terrible taste of so many gamers this days? I mean, i know what i´ve said about that gamers may soudns bad, but... nowadays people wants Assasins´s creed, they want things like Call of Duty, all this stuff is the new cassual games, but they are undercover cassual games that make you feel like a hardcore gamer, or just like seeing a movie (usually plenty of blockbusters cliches) and everyone knows that wiiu is not going to have those kind of games. Many gamers thought that WiiU was just a tablet for wii, they´re very poor informated, and they think WiiU just have Mario, and Mario isn´t cool because isn´t realistic and violent.... They are not aware that WiiU is having the bests exclusives by far, and 2015 looks incredible. They just think that every new AC is the new God of videogames. There has to be someway to make see this people how great is this console, graphics are not a problem, look Bayonetta 2, Mk8 or new Zelda, wiiu games look amazing, the quality is not the problem, Nintendo beats One and ps4 on Metacritic by far, even Captain Toad has better scores than the "great" Destiny or Bugity. Price might be a problem yeah, but if people can afford a ps4 and a One, even both, price is not really the problem. Then what? Well, poor marketing, poor informed gamers and terrible taste of half of them. |
Sure, blame the "tastes" of gamers for the Wii U's poor sales. Those dumb gamers always wanting the next CoD, AC, Madden, FIFA, Final Fantasy, etc... why don't they wise up and support the console with such innovative and original titles as:
New Super Mario Bros U, Mario 3D World, Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros 4, Nintendo Mini Game Collection Land, Pikmin 3, Wii Party U, Wii Fit U, DKC 5, Dynasty Warriors 5000: Hyrule Edition, Mario 3D World Mini Game Collection Starring Toad, The Legend Of Zelda: Skyrim, ect. I'll give you the rare non-Nintendo exclusive titles like Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta 2... but then you also have "amazing" exclusives like Zombi U and Sonic Boom to go with them on the console.
If you want to talk about gamers with bad tastes, then look no further than the average Nintendo gamers of today, because all they buy is the latest Nintendo rehashes and nothing else...

Bayonetta 2, arguable one of if not THE best games of the year, can't even crack half a million on the console after nearly 2 months on the market, when it would have done easly double that on BOTH the PS4 and X1 each, had it been a multiplatform title instead. So there goes the argument that PS and XB gamers have bad tastes.
