It’s unfortunate but true: the Wii caused a strong divide between casual and core gamers. Lengthy periods of the lifecycle convinced some players that the console lacked more engaging, deep experiences, ultimately leading them to ditch the console.

Nintendo obviously hopes to avoid a similar situation with Wii U. Fortunately, there’s one believer out there who believes the system can appeal to all kinds of gamers.

Speaking with MCV, Ubisoft EMEA MD Alain Corre stated that the Wii U will continue to strike a chord with families, but will “start to please the hardcore gamers too.”

“We are playing both fields because we think it will appeal to the family the way the Wii did, and start to please the hardcore gamers too. We have been a strong believer in Wii U since day one, and a strong vision for gamers. We have been working closely with them, and we know our brands appeal to Nintendo gamers.”

Nintendo hopes your Wii U won’t be collecting dust, as the company wants users to take advantage of its features on a daily basis.

Nintendo UK’s now ex-general manager David Yarnton has said that this won’t be limited to just games. Its usage extends to the online space, TV watching, and more.

Yarnton said:

“Wii U is an unprecedented product. It’s something we want people to pick up every day. Not just for gaming, but also for things like going online and watching TV. The range of software has very broad appeal. I think it will be good for the market.”

Separately, Yarnton discussed demand for Wii U. When asked if people need this console in their lives, he replied:

“A lot of times people don’t realize they need a device like this in their lives until they see it.”

Black/White 2 could be two of Pokemon’s most successful video game entries yet.

The two versions, which launched in Japan earlier today, amassed 1.16 million units in pre-orders through June 17. That figure is based on data collected by Media Create and shared by Pokemon Co.

Pokemon Black/White 2 is seeing similar success as its predecessors in terms of pre-orders. Prior to the launch of the original games, Black/White also reached pre-order sales of over one million.
