Nintendo never said "we abandoned their core market" EVER.

Not making them the singular priority in the marketing plan does not mean "we abandonded" the core market.

And even if they said that. The REALITY of the situation was much much different.

Nintendo achieved there highest sales ever of core titles, catering more of there output to the core.

Mario titles sold more, Zelda sold more, smash sold more, ...

Nintendo does not need saving. This guys "articles" if you even want to call them that, are terrible. Devoid of fact, reason, and worse of all substance.

Just terribly written. Sensationalized headline.

I will give one example why this article is beyond hope

"I felt they abandoned their core gamer market with the Nintendo Wii"

So is that why the Wii saw

Not in Japan it isnt. Mobile is killing hardware. That is a fact

Absolutely not. This article is so slanted and false.

Lovehow they ignore in 2013, Nintendo sold more software and hardware than anyone. PS4 is bombing in Japan, maybe Sony should go third party?

see how stupid that logic is?

Wii U is fantastic

Wii U for its first 3 weeks on the market, outsold what PS4 is doing 3-1. That shows you how bad it is going to get for PS4.

Ad about 11k to 3DS and those are the hardware numbers.

4329d ago 1 agree1 disagreeView comment

Mobile is absolutely killing the Japanese game market.

3DS should bounce back to first next week at this rate.

4329d ago 1 agree2 disagreeView comment

3DS should regain number 1 next week with a few big releases, but overall Hardware in Japan is dying........everything will be mobile soon at this rate.

The Wii U has a pretty darn nice library. And how can you make a false blanket statement like "Nintendo is in trouble" without looking at 3DS. Without even seeing in 2013, Nintendo had the best year of anyone.

While Sony and MS continue to shrink there game divisions, Nintendo is growing theres.

Your article is beyond stupid.

The Wii was a success in EVERY WAY. Profit, Sales, Software sales, whatever way. Only a "fanboy" as ...
