Nintendo didn't put as much effort in the Wii U as they did for the Wii.
Didn't think I would have to explain that.
You didn't. You just repeated what the other guy said in different words, haha. I think he's looking for a little more detail. It's an 11yo console and we're not all Nintendo historians.
You don't need a historian to figure it out. It's a pretty simple concept.
Well, apparently it’s not simple because you completely missed why I said what I said. Y’all seem to have this idea that Nintendo was a victim of the Wii-U’s failure, and that it wasn’t somehow the result of their decisions. It’s like you think they didn’t develop and sell it themselves, that they suddenly appeared after it already existed. But if you want to just engage in some performative snark be my guest. I’ll be off lol
🤡
Honestly, what I find weird is that they seem to think Nintendo wasn’t somehow responsible for the disaster that was the Wii-U. Like only had to respond to it and had no role in its failure. It’s very odd and I’m assuming it’s not the intention so I’m seeking clarity here.
You're not that good at grasping English, are you?
If I were a mod being a dickhead for no reason would be an immediate bannable offense. Just, why people gotta be like that? Even if you're thinking it, keep it in your brain and don't reply.
It's just so needlessly hostile and shitty, right?
