Yeah they're still pointing to sales.
80,000 for WiiU
165,000 for Ps3
223,000 for Xbox...
but they don't mention that Wii also sold 80,000, and 3ds is still selling. So Nintendo is still making more money on hardware and software.
Try Again!!
Why Zelda wasn't mentioned in any one of those submissions is beyond me. She's more well-known than any of them.
I would've picked Sarah Kerrigan over half of the ones mentioned.
Many people have already stopped listening to him.
It's purely "entertainment" at this point.
Video games will adjust and adapt. We will see things this generation that will prove that the big three are in it for the long haul. Innovation and exclusive experiences will keep us coming back and begging for more.
There's only so much you can do with a tablet or smart phone.
Consoles will eventually come with glove co...
It's sarcasm...
BUT!!.. but everyone is forever WiiUseless !!
How can this be?!
Say what you will, Sony and Microsoft don't have an empire of first party titles, because they're not video game companies.
Nintendo will always have their niche. I think Sony and Microsoft can't make the same mistakes that they did with their previous consoles.
I'm going to wait at least a year after the "big launch" before I even pick one of them up for several reasons. Which is why I'm going to get a WiiU this Summer...
This article is extremely redundant.
Who are they trying to convince?... people who are scared that Nintendo is coming back?
Why would Sony go third party?
The Playstation brand rose on the backs of third party developers, that's all they have.
Well, I do like LBP... and Killzone, but I'm not a big fan of their software.
But yes, I'm more worried about Sony than any of them. To be honest, Sony's the only one I could tolerate getting out of the console business, that's just my view.
It's not that they're too smart or they dont care. Nintendo is reliable. They make more money on software than anybody. If a software company can't spend the dollars to market their game on Nintendo, then they're asking for their game to get buried.
Nintendo knows what their fans want.
Let's face it, when you have such a devoted fanbase, there's just no room for other developers. It's a double-edged sword.
I'm excited!! They need to announce already!
This years E3 is going to be epic.
Maybe it's just me, but discussing music compatibility on a video game console seems tragically ironic.
It will be mine... oh yes! It will be mine...
Yeah, that's just being lazy. If you can't conjure up some decent A.I. then you just want to save money.
Now, if you want to implement A.I. along with an online community, that's different. Not everyone who games, plays online! I don't think you should shut out the solo gamer demographic, but to be honest I haven't even read the article yet... :)
You mad bro?
Call me what you will, Nintendo already knows what we want which is why they dont disappoint. Maybe you prefer the same games, same controllers, same boring gameplay eyecandy... There will always be a shepherd for you there.
It'll be ok. I'm sure they'll have another 6 Assassins creed and cod games for you. Since that's what "real" gamers want.
HA!! You better be scared!!
Just like Michael Jordan had us all brainwashed that he was a good basketball player!!
whammy!
It's more like Nintendo fans know they're getting their money's worth when they buy Nintendo software.
I'm not sure what IP's you prefer, but I think it would be disingenuous to say that those are all we care about. I play ME, RE, COD, Resistance, Dead Space, Halo, Gears, Drake, Crysis, they're all good, but they're all strikingly similar.
Activision didn't make money on "Boom Blox"... until they marketed the game. ...
You better hope so.
You want to see what collapse looks like?
I'd like to direct you to 'Vita' for further thoughts on your "analysis".
Just so you know, if Sony depended on video game sales alone, there would be no Ps4.
just sayin
Sounds like the ramblings of a man in fear of losing his console preference. Or he's mad that WiiU has the better version of the game.
Either way, this Calvin character should do more "reporting", it amuses me.
If anything, the "WiiU hate" only sells more WiiU's.
Nintendo hasn't even gotten started promoting their system.
I still have yet to see a WiiU advertisement anywhere except youtube.
Even if they don't, I'm not sure it'll matter since Nintendo will make money anyway. The same can't be said for their competitors.
