Bye Bye Ninty?

[MYstIC G]

The Wii U sells for a loss...

Microsoft and Sony might be able to handle those sort of blows, but Nintendo?

Didn't the Wii sell for close to a loss too?

I thought Nintendo made their money from licensing and software sales?

 

[MYstIC G]

I don't believe that's correct. I'm pretty sure that Ninty made money on hardware and software last gen

Ninty will be fine if they honestly thought they couldn't sustain those figures they would bump the cost?

Don't forget they will make a lot of money from the extra touch screen pads people will buy at least 1 extra pad.

Who knows though, I think the Wiiu success at launch will ride on ZombiU as if done right it will be a system seller.

i think they might be ok, but they will be in trouble after this console. thier own software is only gonna carry em for so long.

I believe this is the first time they'll make a loss from launch.
