I agree. The system isnt even out yet, so it is just a wild guess at this moment.
I think that there was a misunderstand earlier in this case though, because Aostia clearified later that he didnt say that it isnt too early to say about WiiU's 3rd party support. So it didnt seem to be about extreme bias (or bias at all perhaps). I wasnt referring to anyone in this thread either just so that is said, i was only talking in general.
Kid Icarus apparently bomba? [as far as chances of a sequel are concerned anyway]

It had a better sellthrough percentage than LBE:B, 60% vs 40% and it opened similarly, 54k vs 62k. It will sell out its first shipment if trends the same as LBE:B.So LBX doubled its first day?
I hope it can reach the 100k mark.
BOOM ROASTED.
Post count flame.
All the components of a GameFAQs thread have been assembled and siezed by Tenbatsu. Thus the dead GAF timeline will ensue.
You said that Iwata can't be trusted, and that you're only going with what's announced now for Wii U launch support in Japan. Yet, Vita is too early to count out (wait at least another year to be sure), since it's also in a "no big games announced" area, but you just can't count it out, yet (for another year from now).
It's hard to take you seriously as a poster, at this point.
.
If they'll annouce a lot of "PS3-style" titles as the 3DS was able to announce a lot of "PSP-style" titles, of course I'll change my mind. I have no problem about that!
I think the anime is what greatly helped IE become the successful franchise it is today (or was.. lol).
On the other hand, Calciobit has a totally different approach. It is backed by many japanese football players as a marketing campaign, plus having a nation-wide league/tournament could be very positive.
That's why i enquire about word-of-mouth from the demo or first day(s) on sale!
In the end, I love these kind of games and would like to see them localized, but i understand it is quite hard and would require a tremendous effort. Even if the game looks simple, i'm sure there's an enormous amount of depth within it.

"A lot of PSP-style titles" were announced on 3DS in the Fall conference, when the console was in the market for a few months.

Now even Oni Training has its own Direct. Can't wait for Smash Bros. ones.
You cannot deny that a lot of PSP-style games were already announced at the E3, also if just in a list (but a lot of games already had screenshots for example). But, that said, I just think that up to now is harder to say that Wii U will have the titles to appeal PS3 target than the contrary. Isn't it?
As Sasuke said, it's pointless up to now discuss about Wii U, but I initially was just replying to someone else that made the 3ds-Wiiu comparison
What is the next hardware bundle or colour bundle for it?
Speaking about games that were officially announced... We had Kingdom Hearts, Metal Gear Solid and...?
The "PSP-style" line-up came out last September, when they were announced Monster Hunter, Hatsune Miku, Dynasty Warriors, SD Gundam. Something was announced during last E3 (so when the console was already in the market), such as Ace Combat and Tekken.
Also with kid icarus do you all think nintendo will break even on it as they seem to have spent a lot of marketing on the title seeing how much exposure it has had. As a new ip (in the sequel sense) did it do well? I mean dragons dogma did well as a first up game and kid icarus is no where near that ,but the budgets for devlopment for dragons dogma would be much larger compared to kid icarus or would i be wrong on that train of thought?

There are new PSP games with zombies? Which ones?The real interest happens when one of the Zombie PSP titles does well, or a LEVEL 5 game flops, or a DS sequel does better or worse than expected on the 3DS.
There's also the railroad collision fun of watching just how low the Vita will go and the amazing return from the dead certain Wii titles makes whenever that system does anything new or a kid friendly holiday rolls around.
Yeah, that is what i ment with it being a misunderstanding (unless you're just adding to what i wrote). I dont think that you ment it as bias.The topic was just: Wii U will aim at both Wii and PS3 demographic targets as the 3DS is aiming at both DS and PSP targets.
I then pointed out that up to now, due to the absolute lack of third party support for the Wii U and due to the lack of new "adult male targeted" Nintendo IP for the Wii U, we can say that: or Nintendo is not planning to repeat the 3ds plan with the Wii U, or they are not succeding it doing so.
In my opinion looking at the struggle that the Wii encountered in the last years, I think that Nintendo planned to enlarge its portfolio trying to work more and more efficiently with third parties for their new home console.
But I also think that, due to the fact that up to now we don't have any reliable clues about possible strong third party support, probably they are facing some troubles.
And I just said that this could be due to the difference between ds/psp VS wii/ps3 situations and so on
I mean: to me it seems an analysis, not a hater bias :\
I don't have any doubt about DQX being a million seller... thing is there's a Wii U version, so let's see how can we analyze that. Don't think many people will wait for that one though... they'll probably just buy both!
Why the hell would they buy both if its a MMO.
The first game actually didn't sell too poorly, what the anime did was actually keep it relevant. So kind of yes and no I guess?Did Inazuma Eleven get popular because of its anime? If not, then hoping that Calciobit becomes huge may not be 100% delusional
Everyone has been talking about Calciobit like it's a new IP. I agree the social website stuff Nintendo has done could be neat and could change how the games is received, but it is the second installment in the series. The original game opened to 9k and topped out at 28k lifetime.
This is not going to be a smash success

In the USA, MK7 has nearly doubled MKDS sales launch aligned. It's the same for SM3DL vs SM64DS.The weekly sales of MK7 are likely to pick up soon as well with the imminent release of the 3ds LL.
In terms of world wide sales I could imagine MK7 is tracking behind the last two MK games because 3ds sales seem to be slow outside of Japan and the ds and wii games came out at different points in their respective systems' lives.
