There has been many times where I only want one game at a launch. Whats the big deal? Its not like theres the launch and then no games for 6 months...

I dont get your argument. How many launch games must a console have before you buy it?

You get that only game at launch? And that's it? You play absolutely nothing else during months save for that game?

I don't have a specific number of games it should have. I can tell you though, one freaking game alone is laughable, especially when you take away for months Zelda after making such a big deal its release date (still a rumor, so I won't abide for this if it doesn't turn true), but apparently people only wanted Mario so it's not a big deal I suppose. I hope people enjoy playing Mario and nothing else for months, because why would they want to play 50 other different games, am I right?

Again why do you assume that I will go months without games? You act like no new games are being released until months after launch.

-Splatoon packed in in deluxe model at launch

-3D Mario Switch at launch

-Skyrim at launch 

Wow, it's fucking nothing. Switch deserves to fail hard.

Do you actualy assume those are only games for Switch launch!? :D

Also new 3D Mario is much stronger than anything Wii U had in its 1st whole year.

My point is that you argue for more games at launch. Well if there is 50 new games at launch, but you only want one of them. Then how does that benfit you?

And just like I said earlier, this very-specific criteria argument benefits no one in this discussion. Can you name me someone who would have 50 games at launch, but only want one of them? Is there a person that fits this bill, that we could somehow make a case around him or her?

I don't plan to get more than 1 game at launch(+ the pack in), I don't see the need to add to my backlog without completing my first batch of games.

Well yeah. The fake 3D Mario they released in less than a year after launch was weak. But NSMBU was good.

Nope, Wonderful 101 is better than anything else in this generation.

Mario games always good, but nothing special or unique.

Mario 3D World tehnicaly was Wii Us 2nd year game, NSMBU is good like secondary title not like system seller and title get exatited about and force people to actualy buy console.

And 4 of every 4 sold had a copy of Wii sports. Whats your point? If you want to position the success of the Wii on a game which had an attach rate less than 1/10, you're onto a losing game. Zelda is a great launch title, as is 3D Mario. The success of the platform is not dependent on any one game unless we're talking about a phenomenom like Wii Sports. 

If people would be willing to buy switch for one Zelda game in March (most won't, TP sold most of its units after 6months), they'll do the same "several" months later.

Lol, attach rate. Which game do you think was more profitable to Nintendo? Mk8 with its impressive attach rate on Wii U? Or MK Wii with its average attach rate?

 

Also Wii Sports was a pack in, excep in Japan. Lol.

Yet you realise the first thing you spouted was that Zelda is responsible for Wii's success because it had a high attach rate at launch. Now you want to downplay attach rate through an random question about profitability? Funnily enough NSMBU has the exact same launch attach rate for Wii U that TP had for Wii.

I know Wii sports was a pack in, so was Mario on the SNES, does that mean it wasnt hugely responsible for the systems success. I won't go around in circles with you so I'll just outline the reality:

Twilight Princess was a great launch title which helped in ensure strong momentum at launch. Any major Nintendo franchise would do the same to varying degrees  but a brand new 3D mario will do an especially great job at this, probably even more than a multiplatform Zelda game due to fact that it would be exclusive.

Thast your subjective opinion, I talking objectivle when I say that new 3D Mario si stronger game than any game Wii U had in its 1st year.
