Family Fishing, released on Wii last year, has shipped 200,000 units since launch. Nintendo was aware of this and even went out of its way to send Namco Bandai an award for the accomplishment.

I wonder how many times Nintendo has done this previously. Was this just a special case for Namco Bandai/Family Fishing?

Coming off of the Wii’s full unveiling in 2006, developers and consumers alike maintained a great deal of skepticism about the console. You could argue that the Wii U is now finding itself in a similar position.

Even so, ZombiU producer Guillaume Brunier believes that the new system could end up being more popular than its predecessor. Brunier pointed to the GamePad’s touchscreen as one factor that can help “get Wii U further than Wii got.”

Brunier said:

“When they released the Wii a few years ago, I don’t think developers–and Nintendo–anticipated how big it would become. I think this is going to be the case with the Wii U too. Touchscreen interfaces are so common to everyone right now, that having this as part of a gaming platform is really going to get Wii U further than Wii got.”
