Top UK retailers have weighed in on what Nintendo must do in order to improve the Wii U’s fortunes. Two common elements seemed to come about: a lower price and the release of Mario Kart 8.

The games boss of one of the UK’s biggest retailers told MCV:

“A sub-£200 machine will help, and Mario Kart is desperately needed to reach the fans. We also need something revolutionary that makes use of the second screen and has mainstream appeal, which is easier said than done.”

Another statement comes from the top buyer at one online games store:

“There is only one real last chance for Wii U and it is Mario Kart 8. It could still be the game that sparks interest in Wii U, but it would need to be combined with a more mass market retail price.”

And a third comment from a games executive at a mass market outlet:

“£199 and Mario Kart 8. Simple.”

Lastly, Xbite boss Steve Thomas added:

“Nintendo will have something up its sleeves that again will add a new dimension to gaming.”
