Those are good sales, and can you imagine how they will look when Smash and MK8 hit? Those two franchises are huge in Japan and with Hyrule Warriors to add into the mix now Nintendo has alot of ammo to sustain them thru the coming year in Japan. The real battle will be america of course.

Good sales for both sides.

Come on, graphically the game looks good. This is a youtube video so the quality is crap. The screen shots look damn good tho. And the battlefields in Warriors' games are freaking huge so there will be tons of exploration for items and other lil secrets. If this sticks to the zelda world there are so many potential players and easter eggs. As a zelda fan how can you not be excited for this? This finally makes link look like the badass he really is. Plus there will be level ups which is al...

Are you kidding me? Games are continued investments nowadays. DLC covers that. and online passes for some titles. Devs/Pubs act like they should receive a cut of gamestops profits for what? Because they are making good money off of used game sales? And you are wrong, whenever I make a purchase at gamestop they ask me if I want to preorder a new title that is coming out. Only in the gaming world it seems are people asking for money for second hand merchandise. Gamestop doesn't sell every g...

so if I sell my car today, should Cadillac get a cut of that sale? Thrift shops, garage sales, should we be breaking the companies off from those as well?

Stfu and follow nintendos advice, make games people don't want to trade in.

The numbers aren't mind-blowingly great but they are still good. And comparing a handheld in Japan to a console Is apples and oranges. Japan loves handhelds, hell peole marry charactrs on their handhelds there. Consoles are like the drunk chick at a party whose kinda cute and is available when nobody else is putting out

I have a feeling were going to see another article soon trying to smooth this one over cause it doesn't make any sense. For as well as it sold at full price not being anywhere close to profitable is just odd.

This game did not have multimillion seller potential. What were they expecting? Kind of sounds like Square Enix right now.

the fact that an older game like Batman Arkham City can sell over 200k on the system more than a year later at full price when you can find it waaaay cheaper in other places is amazing to me.

Zombiu probably cost so much because it was in development hell for so long. It started on the 360 before jumping to WiiU and finally becoming ZombiU. There were like 2 or 3 voice actors, no set pieces, no real ending, subpar visuals, clunky controls. A tacked on multiplayer... none of i...

So all of that money they saved on marketing (because I never once saw a commercial to this game) didn't help the game become profitable? The slightly below average visuals (meaning they didn't spend too much there either I assume) or the lack of an ending (meaning they didn't spend too much on writing) didn't help this game become profitable? Wtf were they expecting?

Don't get me wrong I loved this game for its atmosphere. The controls weren't great, th...

If I buy a game at wal mart should I be able to walk into target and get the same game because I paid for it already at another store? That's kinda what this sounds like to me.

What non sense am I speaking? Unless we're talking Gran Turismo than sony really has no real big selling exclusives, nothing the likes of Mario or halo. Killzone titles have never lit the charts up. Neither has infamous. And the fact is its competing with more than just Wii U, its also competing with One, 360, Wii, and PS3. That's a lot of competition. A lot of cheaper more attractive competition.

And yeah Nintendo had a year head start. Its sold 5 million consoles w...

also has free online, full backwards compatibility, and out of the box remote play as well as video chat. That's some pretty decent value right there. I'm a hard core gamer and a hdd has never been a big deal to me. Hell I played on my 360 for years with just 4 gigs

4670d ago 1 agree0 disagreeView comment

Its sold about 5 million units so far with only 1 big name title... tell me how its in trouble again?

PS4 is launching with no big selling exclusives. Killzone is not a huge seller. Call of Duty will be most popular on 360 as always and nothing else in its launch line up is all that appealing. And why should the Wii U be 200 or 250? PS3 still sells for 299!!! wtf kinda logic is that? Lets make a newer more powerful console with a new interface and new features cheaper than a...

You have no idea how many times Ive sat with my family in the living room while they watched a movie and I played Call of Duty or something right next to them. That feature is incredible. Remote play out of the box is next gen. An actual operating system that allows you to pause your game and watch youtube or web surf and jump back in like it was nothing is next gen. If visuals are all you think about than I by all means jump into PS4 or X1. But nintendo really did change the way I game this ...

I actually see more value in the Wii U than I do the other ones. Full backwards compatibility, free online, tablet remote, and 100 dollars cheaper? Sounds good to me. After E3 Nintendo showed that it can compete visually as Bayonetta 2, MK8, and X are all beautiful games and are not that far behind the best that the other 2 had on show plus it has more exclusives and more games going into the holidays. Depending on your preference all are good options, for me tho, if I didn't already own ...

So nintendo will miss out on some games, maybe quite a bit, but itll also get a lot. The Wii didnt get Splinter Cell (aside from that launch atrocity) but Wii U is. Didnt get AC either but Wii U is. Didnt get injustice Goldeneye Legends or RE revalations. There is improved 3rd party support on the console already compared to the last outing and dont even get me started on the vastly improved online. Plenty of great indy games available and coming. Give the console time. Considering it doesnt ...

I think they look kind of identical, I think the lighting looked a little better on the Wii U version but its possible it was just different angles on the capture. Regardless, it has off tv play, so for me personally thats enough to give it the edge. I've already beat the game on the 3ds but it was good enough to warrant another purchase. Like somebody above me said however the lack of variety in enemy types is the biggest fault against the game

They arent paying to make Bayonetta 2 so Im sure they arent too concerned with sales.

4748d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

Nintendo lost last gen badly, they had the poorest selling console out of the big 3. To come back and dominate as they have is insane. They were the underdog and they prevailed. For all the good games Sony had as exclusives, Nintendo did as well.

Mario Galaxy
Mario Galaxy 2
Mario Kart
Mario Strikers
Super Paper Mario
Smash Bros Brawl
Wii Sports
Wii Sports Resort
Battalion Wars 2
Red Steel 2
