I just read Shigeru Miyamotos statemant about what went wrong with the WiiU and I just can't take Nintendo's ignorance anymore. I thought about making a list with you guys that we sign digitally as a petition so Nintendo finally starts listening to it's community.

Here is why I completely ignored the WiiU even though I bought almost every Nintendo console:

As an oldschool gamer myself the Wii already was a great turnoff. Only Nintendo produced some good games and almost all 3rd party games sucked or were only playable with friends as a party game for a couple of hours. I got fed up with almost all of Nintendo's games after a couple of Wii gameing years. I'm almost 33 years old now, I wanted and still want some new franchises, something more mature like Eternal Darkness on the Gamecube. Nintendo just reproduces the same old games like they always do, but it's no fun eating the same food over and over again. Nintendo got the for girls and kids image now. They earned it successfully with the Wii and this sticks now. I myself and probably almost all of you older ones just loved to play gory stuff like Mortal Combat at the age of 7 to 17 because those games kid's weren't allowed to play easily. So everyone that wants to play more mature games completely ignores Nintendo products nowdays. Then there is the Controller: nobody wants a 150$ touchscreen controller that you can't do shit with, why not just make the 3Ds into an optional touchscreen controller? Would have been enough. 3rd party devs are important and almost all of the mature games need graphics, so if the consoles hardware is not on par with the others the console will get ignored by devs. Then 3rd party devs failed to utilize the Wii and WiiUs innovative aspects and I don't think they will on future consoles.

In short:

  • Core/oldschool gamers left Nintendo because of the the Wii
  • Nintendo's image has become women and kids game console. Thus even kids won't play it after they become a bit older.
  • Not enough games for adults or kids that want to play adult games.
  • Nintendo failed to create real innovation with the WiiU
  • 3rd party devs fail to create innovative games for Nintendo's consoles.
  • Nintendo's consoles hardware need to be on par with the other consoles.

For the future: If Nintendo fails to jump on the Augmented and Virtual Reality train it'll be the end for Nintendo. Especially augmented reality is important, it is what will make kids play on the streets again.

Let's complete this list and shove it into their faces by doing a petition!
I would hate to see Nintendo end up like Sega but if Nintendo does not change it's viewpoint this will happen.
