Iwata: US 3DS sales “weren’t explosive as expected” during Christmas, “large scale” Wii U price cut wouldn’t be effective
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Podcast Stories, Wii U | 4 Comments
Bits from Satoru Iwata’s press conference in Japan continue to emerge. Nikkei has a few more quotes about 3DS and Wii U sales, which are as follows:
In the american video game market a high share of the portable console 3DS is ensured, but during the Christmas shopping season last year sales weren’t explosive as expected. With the delay of software releases for the home console Wii U, it can’t recover while momentum is lost. While it’s necessary to rebuild another dimension, we don’t think that we can overcome this situation by applying a large price cut.
Earlier today we heard Iwata stating that a Wii U price cut is unlikely. The comments above specifically mention “a large price cut”, but perhaps something smaller is still a possibility?
