While true that would mean no one would buy a console until its built up a good selection of software. I think the normal behaviour is to buy when a console has a few games you want and then expect perhaps more such games in the future with a reasonable selection to choose from. Clearly for wii u the selection of major games is quite small and third party games are mainly weak versions due to the weak hardware or don't exist at all.

I can see where you are coming from though and I think the bulk of console sales come when the console has reached a mass market price point with a wide selection of software. If wii u owners had followed those rules going by the satisfaction rate then perhaps the wii u would have sold a third of its current numbers.

true, although I'm struggling to figure out whether he was refering to Nintendo or third party support when he said that

I think Pavolink was stating that Nintendo claimed they were ready then once a bunch of games got delayed all of a sudden they weren't ready anymore.

Thanks. Yes it's a strange feeling. It's funny that you felt like that in the 7th gen. I myself was actually lured back into console gaming decisively at the start of the 7th gen, but I really am a sucker for new and different concepts it seems. I could never really explain it objectively, but like the 5th and unlike how I feel about the 8th, the 7th gen to me just had 'it'.

A post from the heart .

Pikmin was first game that was delayed, they wanted to be launch title but after several delays because HD development problems they released it in July.

Well i am disappointed to some degree.

1. Nintendo is far to focused on Mario nowadays. There where always Mario games. But it has become to much. There are so many other Nintendo IP's and Splatoon shows they still can make new IP's.

2. I like platformers. But i also like other games. Stuff Nintendo usually had, not only F-Zero and Metroid. Not even neccesarily action packed titles. Might actually have been something like an Endless Ocean 3 (so published by Nintendo). That could have been a perfect fit for Wii U. But games like 1080° are missing since Gamecube and no one at Nintendo delivers something like Blast Corps.
You could say i'm still missing the diversity Nintendo once had.

This is a big point for me. Almost half of my wii u games are platformers and that's kind of disheartening seeing as how I want to try other kinds of games

Actually I think this gen we have less Mario games than previous.

Yes, it is dissapointing .... not because of NX teasing, but due to the fact that they´re apparently abandoning development for the WiiU in less than three years. It seems that we won´t have anything new to play besides mid-2016, after barely 3 1/2 years in the market. Dissapointing.
