Nintendo is already planning for the future of Wii U, and won’t let titles dry up
“We’ve got a very strong line-up, lots of titles and activities aimed at Christmas, but we’ve already got plans for Q1. Lots of new titles like Monster Hunter, but also repromotions and things like that. We definitely want to maintain momentum in Q1 – that’s our focus right now.” – Head of Consumer Marketing (and new-kid-on-the-block) James Honeywell
“Nintendo always makes sure it launches games throughout the year. We don’t really focus particularly on Christmas. We’ve got a strong line-up all the way through the year. We always have the marketing to support that. We have plans to take sampling all the way through the year. For us, it’s not just about launch, it’s about building momentum and maintaining that over a long period of time.”
The more I think about it, the more amazed I am at how many amazing new Wii U games we’ll be getting over the coming months. The Wonderful 101, Pikmin 3, Bayonetta 2, Wii Fit U… the list just goes on! And that’s not even talking about what’s coming next holiday! My guess is the next Smash Bros.…
