7 things Nintendo need to do to get the wiiU on track!

1. Cut the price before the ps4 drops put out a bundle with a wii sports U game and a hard core game.

2. Cater to both the hard core, casual and, nintendo fan crowd they need

A. A true WII sports equal to bundle with the system and recapture all of the casual market sittout around. with HD, and online multiply bowling tennis ect.

B. A true next Gen AAA FPS for the western market made from the ground up for the bro dude shooter corwd.

C. The next mario, Metroid, Zelda for hard core N fans.

3. FIRE REGGIE AND Most at NOA promote people from RETRO to run NOA.

4. Postition the game a a next gen hard core RPG machine, with sequeals for MH, xenoblade,last story pandora, FFCC, a mainline FF, Tales, and others

5. MOney studios, and western Ips. why didnt they buy saints row? why didnt they buy THQ why arnt they fightign for market share?

7. Money hat blizzard to make games for thesystem. The wiiU game pad can now accurately do RTS, and PC type MMogames

Please discussand lets save to see if nintendo does anything close to what makesgood sense

1. Can't afford a price cut right now

2. They tried

3. What good would firing Reggie do exactly?

4. Uh, no comment.

5. You really think they are made of money here?

6. (why is this seven exactly) They tried that in the N64 era, it didn't work.

all that is super complex, how  about this as an answer.

1. games.

I think they should bite the bullet and kill off the tablet, there is no real need or want for it. Then they could sell the system pretty cheap and concentrate on pumping out great 1st party games to be played with the pro controller.

Nothing what they can do will bring it back on track.

Release  some games

Get their marketing together

And change the damn name. It's not too late.

Yes point. The tablet could be removed easily and the product restructured to suit. Then the system could be sold a lot cheaper than the nextbox/ps4 while retaining a profit margin.

Heres my List...

1. Release as Many First Party best selling Franchises as soon as possible (Zelda, Mario KartU, New Mario, SMB, ect) Bring on the Mario.

2. WiiU needs Price Cut Bad, Going to not look good around christmas when Xbox 360 and PS3 drop there price and PS4 and Next Xbox come out, WiiU will be left out? I think so.

2. Create new first party Hardcore games, to attract Non Nintendo Fans. Attract the hardcore crowd.

3. Get third party somehow (Won't happen Until WiiU sells more, which it still might never happen).

4. Better Advertising, so people are not confused with WiiU and the original Wii.

5. Change the name from WiiU to Wii 2 Ultra (Lol too late for that Nintendo WiiU is a crap name that confused mom and pops.)

6. FIRE REGGIE. Best idea ever, dude is not pushing the system forward, rather he expects people to Enjoy Mario NES 8-bit forever. Get him the hell out hahahahaha.

7. Pull a MS and start buying exclusives and paying for exclusive DLC.

 

5. You really think they are made of money here?

 

nintendoboy16

Well.. Yes I do actually..  Being the winners of last generation and all.  Wtf are they doing with all that money they made off the Wii?

nintendoboy16

No it's not. They could easily reintroduce the thing( again) at E3 with a rebranded name since a lot of consumers still think it is just an add on or don't even know it exist.

the Wii was just a fluke that will not repeat. Their handhelds are still on top because they have no real competition, people only care about Pokemon in America and in Japan is all Monster Hunter.

That is asking for SEGA level of failure right there.

[QUOTE="Kingpin0114"]

[QUOTE="nintendoboy16"]It already released, so yes it is.

Clearly it isn't that obvious since people still don't know what the thing is

doing that would be suicide, they can't just kill off the main selling point for the system from a technical perspective.

not to mention most view the wiiu's only saving grace currently as that very feature. Some people love local split screen multiplayer without the split screen.

But it's clearly not a selling point of the system because it isn't selling. The die hards have bought it and that's it. A much cheaper price point + 1st party IP's would be more attractive when going up against nextbox/PS4.

I'm not saying you are wrong, but just out of curiosity, why do you think people don't know what it is? Everybody I know that own a Wii doesn not own a WiiU, and they have no interest in getting one. It has nothing to do with not knowing. Many people such as myself family, my parents, and my sister's family feel like they got sucked into hype and nostalgia, and Nintendo screwed us over with crap.

I personally think people know what it is, but they just do not have any interest. My interest might go up a little bit in a couple years. I will wait for a price drop and until their library grows substantially. Then I will go into a used game shop and buy a handful of games I missed for much cheaper. There is still not a game for the U that I want bad enough that I would pay full price for... with the one possible exception being New Super Mario Brothers WiiU.

I'm actually liking the idea of the Wii U failing right now because it's putting Nintendo in a position where they've got no choice but to start releasing killer apps as soon as possible.   They really need to start throwing stuff at us at E3 or it's over. 

Reggis is an arragant prick but he isn't the problem. The problem comes from Japan. Iwata is old school. Someone needs to explain to him what gamers want. He feels deep down that they can do no wrong.

But to make the Wii U worth a flying ****?

Cater to todays gamer. FPS, Sim Racers, WRPG's, and a good online structure.

Quit bring out 2D crap like Epic Yarn and Yoshi's 1st Bone. All those franchises and all they wanna make is Mario in 3D? Please? When Sony and Microafot brings out 2D games they are released on the arcade. There is a reason for that. It is played out.

Instead of Mario this and Mario that.....A brand new Starfox. Not another BS remake on a handheld. Diddy Kong Racing 2 would be nice. F-Zero but at least try to make it a tech monster. Don't half ass it after Sega released the brilliant F-Zero GX. Make Donkey Kong (OK....Returns was great....so my 2D comment earlier? Well DKCR was the exception), make him relevant again. Keep Team Ninja far the **** away from the next Metroid game.
Also- Where are all of Nintedno's teams at? They keep having these other studios make their games? The next Mario Kart needs to be a system seller. With that style they need to have a crap ton of tracks and such. Go all out with it. Make the next Smash Brothers a stand alone game. Having it compatible with the 3DS is gonna hold it back.
Also- Go get some American teams to make exclusives. Or European teams. Go to companies like Starbreeze, Ninja Theory, and Rocksteady and show them the money. Lego Undercover is great. I only played about an hour of it but it made me wish I did not sell my Wii U.

But this is Nintedno. We will get 15 different Mario games, a few remakes, and a Zelda in a few years. And Reggie will stand there and claim Sony is still trying to catch up.

2. Outside of good online infastructure... no, just no. Better to do what they do. They don't need to jump on any freaking bandwagons Sony, Microsoft, and other developers are already on.

3. Do you have evidence of the 3DS Smash holding the Wii U game back?

how about we wait for the games before writing wii u off , remember 3ds ? yall were quick to write it off , and then bam 1 yr later its selling good ,  just freakin wait stop jumping the gun , 

we dont even have a price on ps4 nor a confirmation on 720 all we have is rumors for 720 and a suppose launch  period for ps4  without even seeing the console it self ,    i remember a time when the psvita was supposed to drop 3ds ? im still waiting for that ,  

and besides with the rumored 720 specs im very certain that is the one that will need all the help it can get 

Where's 6? :(

C. The next mario, Metroid, Zelda for hard core N fans.

 i agree with this

nintendoboy says they cant afford a price cut... i think by the holidays time they can take 50$ off. or at least for a limited time special for the holidays.

it does seem a little crazy that they didn't try to acquire THQ

Nintendo needs to stick to the DENNIS system:

D- Demonstrate Value 
E- Engage Physically 
N- Nurture Dependence 
N- Neglect Emotionally 
I- Inspire Hope 
S- Separate Entirely

i would be willing to bet 10,000$ the system won't sell over 30 million, i really don't think they can even sell 20 million, the nintendo brand is worth nothing in console gaming anymore, the only way they can get it back on track is if ps4/720 launch at 499-599$ and all third part games are released on wiiu, and even after that they will only manage 40 million at best,

even though the wiiu sold great, it sold to an audience that doesnt really care about core gaming, so they basically missed a whole generation with last gen games and no oline support, it will almost be impossible for them to ever get back on track, they should just go third party or they could try releasing a console based on gimmicks but what's the chance of catching lighting in a bottle twice, i will say very slim, especially since every body is trying to copy nintendo success with gimmicks.

They just need the good games to come out, that's it. 

Combined with a price cut, I'd be a potential buyer. 

I would probably say that the number one thing they have to do is release some new great games. Obviously they literally JUST did with Monster Hunter Ultimate and Lego City Undercover, so that's a good step. But the system itself is solid. It's powerful, has an awesome and unique controller, and hey...it's made by Nintendo. All wins there! It really just needs games. The "new console launch" woes need to end now. Luckily we know that there are some great games coming soon and there are probably only a ton of surprises we are still waiting for. When those come, after E3, the system should be poised to start rocking and rolling. Personally I'm quite excited. :D
