Iwata says software, not price, is Wii U’s issue

Much has been made of the Wii U’s price. Some have said that the console is simply too expensive, especially when compared to other upcoming systems such as the PlayStation 4.
But Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, speaking with CVG, said that the Wii U’s price is not the problem. Rather, the dearth of exciting titles is the root of the problem, “and the only solution is to provide the mass-market with a number of quality software titles.”
Iwata said:
“If the price is actually an issue [with Wii U], then there is some contradiction between the current sales balance between the Basic and Premium versions of the Wii U. The basic version should have sold a lot, but the fact of the matter is that people are buying more of the premium version. So the issue is not there.”
“I understand that the real issue is the lack of software, and the only solution is to provide the mass-market with a number of quality software titles.”

Within the footage is both explanation and review, so you’ll know what things work and what things don’t about the game prior to ever having to try it yourself!
