About all the Wii U DOOMSDAY comments/threads

It's crazy that Mario Kart 7 has sold 7.73 million copies on a 30m install base.

3D Land has 8m.
NSMB 2 has 6m.

Animal Crossing will also probably become a 8m+ seller. 

Its a different situation. The DS was still dominating when 3DS came out. PSP was never a big factor. So when DS started dieing fans moved to 3DS because by then 3DS had loads of games.

Now the WiiU is different because its sitting right next to PS3 and Xbox 360 which are old systems and continue to outsell it. In a year Xbox 720 and PS4 will be out, so the WiiU is in trouble, unless enough Mario Fans pick up the system.

What WiiU really needs is strong new IP's and solid 3rd Party Support. Which they don't have yet, so 360 and PS3 will continue to outsell it and PS4 and Xbox 720 will rape it when they hit on power, tech and games.

I don't think Mario and a huge controller with a screen is going to help Nintendo this time around, they need more, better games and 3rd party.

Yes Wiiu is doomed, as of right now.

GAMECUBE FAILED BECAUSE IT HAD NOT MANY GOOD GAMES , a bunch of mariopartys and  1 mario game and 1 exclusive zelda game soon to be non exclusive 1 remade zelda game 1 zelda collection  1 wii port ,and 2 metroid games1 fzero 1 1080 , and bunch of mariosports titles ,meh wii  ds 3ds and wiiu have better lineups

Gamecube had loads of good games. Don't forget all the Resident evil games as well. I doubt the Wii U will match the Gamecubes library. Windwaker U is a good start which is funny as its a gamecube game.

Jim Raynor: I'm positive I didn't hear that right.

Once Sony announces the PS4 and Microsoft the nextbox it'll definitely take a major hit and probably slump down in favor of the newer systems. Specially if those are affordable, if they're anywhere close to the leaked specs we know they're definitely more powerful.

I never learn. That's the System Wars way. Badosh

I love how the tc says the big titles will drop, mario kart and smash bros.. sorry but why would I want to buy a new system everytime Nintendo releases one just to play the exact same games over and over and over. Oh cause it's now in HD? lol but its the same thing every time, on every one of their systems. Nintendo needs to come up with new IP's.Rattlesnake_8

HD and new control method and a new way to interact with people that are also playing the game so you can share your experience..without trolls.\

what more do you want in a next gen system?!

TC cracks me up how he is trying to convinces us the Wii U is a good purchase so he doesn't have to feel bad about his purchase. Two things kill the Wii U for me to the point that there is no game that could make me even take a remote interest in the Wii U. The crappy tablet controller and the crappy specs of the hardware. Nintendo doesn't makes games for me, so that only leaves third party support and we all know how crappy the third party support is. So crap controller, crap hardware, and crap third party support=no chance in hell.AmazonTreeBoa

This is a very big year for Wii U. There are a good number of very promising exclusives being released. If the sales don't turn around by the end of the year, then let the doom and gloom threads fly. But then again, there's Smash Bros. which has the power to almost single handedly keep the console up.

So they're just jamming more remakes of the same crap I got bored playing as a kid down our throats, and I'm excited why? What is that the 32nd Mario Kart? Give us something new Nintendo, no? Well then I guess there is lots of suckers out there who want the same game again and again and again.....

That's the equivalent of me saying GTA V doesn't count because I'm not into the series anymore.

You must be trolling

You're asking certain posters to attempt the impossible, by not acting completely stupid.

[QUOTE="MBirdy88"] I didn't say it doesn't count, my point is "putting all your eggs in one basket" is very bad. I have a 3DS, I am bored of Mario Kart, I dont want to play old games remastered other than other marios there is not much at the moment. Mirror of Fate... first game I will buy in a year. really really awful, as a gamer why should I count 3DS as a success if it provides very little of what its meant to. .MBirdy88

What do you guys think Nintendo should do to try to salvage the Wii U? I personally think they should really cater to Japanese third parties who make niche games that don't sell well enough to justify the budget necessary to make next gen games on the PS4 and 720. It seems they already have a pretty good start here with Bayonnetta 2, and if the Xenoblade sequel does well, I expect more JRPG's to follow. Forget about western 3rd parties. Those games will be a lost cause, anyway, as soon as people figure out that they can buy them for less than $10 on their steambox during Valve's Christmas and summer sales, and other sales throughout the year.PurpleMan5000

I have a feeling that is what ninty is going to do.

Has a single hand monopoly on The Japanese gaming market and is set to outpace the original DS's first few years. Those numbers are only going to get bigger once Pokemon XY drops worldwide

and define "loving it"

I could go onto list the worthwhile games it has now and it's 2013 lineup but I get the feeling you'd dismiss them all as crap so I won't even bother

Like I said, can't deal with it? Sell it and quite your b*tching

Consoles that have been out for half a decade having more games then one thats been out for 2,

Wow what a shocker :shock:

face it, it has about as much good games as the ds had in this timeframe and it's only going to get better. Cry some more

Anyway back on topic. "Also with Bayonetta 2, Rayman Legends, Lego City Undercover, Wonderful 101, Xenoblade sequel, 3D Mario, Wind Waker HD, "new" Zelda, Mario Kart Wii U, Pikmin 3 and whatever RETRO STUDIOS is working on.... which you can bet is either METROID OR DONKEY KONG. How can any gamer look at that list and think, "meh, who cares"." Sounds like a good list, similar to that of the PC lists... only alot smaller, and you just know how those games wont appear for the next 2 years. for a £300 system, with limited functionality in many other areas. that is not really acceptable.MBirdy88

I do agree with the fact that Ninty kind of left the Wii to rot inexplicably without a good burial, and that they didn't take that time to fix everything up nor get into developing things quicker and get more flagship third party, but you never know with them. They tend to surprise on a ton of things they do.

I'm betting those announces are far from the stuff that will surprise us from them over the years.
