Nope. The Wii U is doing par for Japan. Sales number in Japan are always lower for everything.
A game selling 100k in Japan is a hit. 10 a week is good for a console over there.
Yep. Sales in Japan generally lower in number(though profit margins in Japan are higher for Nintendo and Sony).
If 12k is bad, then Sony must be suffering devastation because everything they've release is doing worse.
lol_fail. lol
According ot what I'm seeing, the Wii U outsold the Vita in Japan and everywhere. http://www.vgchartz.com/
And all it would require is either the development cost and time be tripled to account for all of the variations, or the plot and lore be completely diminished to prevent the difference form bumping heads in it effectively creating new, more detracting problems thus solving nothing.
I really wish Natsume would invest a little more into graphics design and make a more appealing artstyle for once.
Why?
Nintendo has had the lowest third party support for nearly 20 years, but have been the overall most successful console manufacturer.
Third party games were never a big source of revenue for Nintendo, and most people don't buy third party games on Nintendo hardware even when they come out?
Why do you people obsess over third party support?
Ugh, please give Zelda back to Miyamoto. All this pandering to fanboys and whiners is turning Zelda into crap.
It would make more sense to just make a new game for all of the stuff people are crying about than ruining something that is well received and liked.
People whined for nonliner dungeons. What is resulted in was short dungeons with shallow puzzles. People whined about "realistic graphics". What it resulted in is a game that looked dated and ...
Not according to the charts I've been looking at.
First party software and exclusives are doing well on the Xbone, but then those always do well on any hardware.
Third part multiplatform titles are trailing heavily on the Xbone, and the console is currently selling less than the Wii U.
Please explain how that would solve any of the aforementioned problem when not only have two price cuts not had any effect on the system market performance, but also the console has been available at <$200 many times over the past year.
Price was never the issue. Not that anyone who beats that dead horse cares. Their only goal is to insult the system.
The only thing lowering the price would do is push the console back into selling at a loss. Though why am...
The most annoying part about his is that the game isn't even being made by Nintendo. Its a Zelda themed Tecmo-Koei game. Tecmo-Koei(primarily the department that makes the Musou games) decided who would be in the game, how they would look, and how you would play with them.
Of course that doesn't matter because the headline would be as sensational or draw as many clicks if it read Tecmo-Koei instead of Nintendo.
This is a complete lie. How are you getting agrees for this?
Yokoi was not forced to resign. He was moved to different position in the company. He didn't like this position because he wasn't allowed to be creative, so he left on his own accord. It was the same with Yu Suzuki and Shenmue at SEGA.
This game isn't even made by SEGA. Doesn't matter in the realm of sensationalized journalism though. Accuracy and truthfulness don't generate as many hits I guess. Its much easier to bash SEGA just like how people were bashing Nintendo for one of the characters in Hyrule Warriors having big breast even though that game was designed and is being developed by Tecmo-Koei alone.
This is a children's game made to accompany a children's. Why are people trying ma...
No. @Load
The PC is not a console. Do not lump it together with the PS4 and Xboxone like they are anywhere close to being on the same level as it.
There is no PC/PS4/Xbone. Its PC then PS4/Xbone/Wii U. Those are the 3 consoles.
I chose the one console this gen that was filled with games I couldn't get better versions of on my PC. For me, getting and Xbone or PS4 would would just be getting a lesser PC with far less games and less variety....
I consider this to be a far better example of who wan e3 than some biased gamesite.
Twitter isn't a gaming site, so its not controlled by fanboy bias. Its controlled by what people find the most interesting.
Those first posts on this article are some grade A bitterness though. Someone doesn't like this news and doesn't want to accept it.
I'm not going to debate this absurdity.
Most Tales games were for Sony hardware only, and all of the games he released on other console he later released enhanced versions of for Sony hardware "only".
That type of backstabbing does not foster any kind of user base. That's not being "supportive".
The term for the Tales games released on the on other systems in Japan is "paid BETA testing" as most of the ga...
They have Bayonetta 2 and Xenoblade X for that.
Ports of old games are rarely ever huge sellers.
Also, the Tales ports on the Vita did far worse.
He's also not making a PS4 Tales game, so I guess that makes him even more sane.
You need to take care of that butthurt. Here's some tissues.
Men while all of the people who own the Wii U and actually like Nintendo don't care as the creator never fostered a user base on Nintendo hardware for them to care.
This is like saying that Naughty Dog has no intention of making an Xboxone game. Who cares besides Sony fanboys who are hoping they feel some kind of resentment about it which seems to be the only interest in this news for a lot...
What a load of crap.
SEGA didn't receive hate for the Dreamcast, it received praise. The things people talk about the most with the Dreamcast is how it failed even though it was an actual good console that people liked. Sometimes I wonder if you people live in another dimension.
Nintendo on the other hand receives endless hate and bashing even when they do well. The Wii was the highest selling console last gen, but rarely was anything good said about it i...
