nevermind. Lets stay on topic.

I hate the Wii and the Wii U. And I did get back on topic FYI.
i think the one for whom the post was meant got it..
FINALLY
Ratchet & Clank: Full Frontal Assault hitting PS Vita May 21
RichTendo got more richer
Nintendo reports 52 percent rise in first-party 3DS software sales
This is to be expected with the general lack of exciting games on the Vita. Emphasis on general.
Yep.Sony seems to be giving step-motherly treatment to the Vita by not making games for it
While the OldStation 3 is drowning in games.....
i think we should ban you two from this thread. Stop posting bullshit.
seriously.. why do we even bother?
Agreed. Why release a console if you don't really want to promote it? Maybe the internal struggles with that vulture capitalist is affecting the company.
#IwataSays We will discuss new Smash Bros., 3D Mario game, Mario Kart and other Wii U titles in our #NintendoDirectNA before the start of E3
Care to point the bullshit out?

That vulture capitalist hasn't caused any trouble yet. He plans to wait for the next financial report for that.
The PS3 & 360 may actually end up being the main competition to the PS4 & Xbox Hobart considering that almost all the big hitters are cross gen this time.
i think its time a script kiddie like you learned some manners. i do not want to dirty this thread. You work for valve dont you? or you dont do you? or atleast your brother has a steam account ? come on steam.. we can sort out our personal differences there.
for gods sake stop cluttering this thread with nintendoganda, keep your wiiu to yourself and be happy. We dont want to know we dont care.

First you need to clean up your own act. This thread is meant for not only X720 and PS4, but also Wii U. Just because you don't want to talk about the Wii U, does not mean that you get the right to tell others what they can or can't post in this thread, especially when their posts are relevant here.
Now, on topic:

Not surprised, because this is EA we're talking about. They release bad games and then blame the hardware makers. They're just bitter they could not put up Origin into the Wii U. And the Wii U is certainly more powerful than the x360.

Replies in RedTo *self-proclaimed troll here* and also any random PS fanboy :Look who's talking. This isn't about personal differences. I am simply asking you to justify your claim that Extreme Gamer posted bullshit.
And do you seriously think I'll give my steam ID to you?
And, like it or not the Wii U is a next gen console which is on topic in this thread.

That genius also said that EA is focusing on the 4th gen(SNES & Mega Drive), thinks that Nintendo should have bankrupted themselves, thinks that the primary target audience of the Wii U is casuals and families(B2, ZombiU & MH3U are so casual) and thinks that losing their developer freedom is good for a company.
The Nintendo Cycle:
0. Nintendo launches a new console
1. 3rd parties make overpriced half-assed late ports for Nintendo consoles
2. They don't sell well because consumers are better informed and won't just buy any crapNo,people buy a Nintendo console to play Nintendo exclusive/console exclusive games,not to play third-party games(multi-plat).
3. They blame Nintendo's fanbase for not buying the game and Nintendo for making a bad console
Lather, rinse repeat.
All other points are right though
When 3rd parties actually try and understand and make games that are not half assed overpriced shovelware you see that they do quite well in the same fanbase. Eg. SAASRT sold the most on the Wii U. MH3G HD ver. was called a smash hit on the Wii U by Capcom, ZombiU was considered a success by Ubisoft on the Wii U, Level 5's primary target platform are Nintendo handhelds, Atlus has done much better on the DS and 3DS than they ever did on the PS2, Rayman Origins sold most on the Wii etc. Right again
If you notice one thing,these games that you mentioned are exclusive to the Wii U and not any other home console

Mario is the 2nd best selling franchise(7th gen) according to Ubi
1st best selling is CoD
I'm not sure how this qualifies as next gen console discussion .
You had 6 major mario titles across two platforms (SMG, SMG2, MKWii, MKDS, NSMBW, NSMB) in 7th gen vs. how many for COD?
All units in millions
10.69(SMG)
+6.36(SMG2)
+34.01(MKWii)
+22.57(MKDS)
+27.61(NSMBW)
+30.18(NSMB)
= 191.81

This does not include spin offs like Mario Party, Super Princess Peach, Donkey Kong etc. and remakes like SM64 DS so the overall sales are much more for the franchise.
Assuming 20 mn sales every major CoD title in 7th gen(a laughable assertion) we get 160(CoD 2 - BO2 make 8) mn in 7th gen so something is amiss. The "Mario" franchise Ubi refers to is probably not the same as the one Nintendo refers to.
I wonder how the "Wii" franchise(Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, Wii Fit, Wii Fit Plus, Wii Party, Wii Play etc.) performed. Feeling too lazy to scrape data.
