Re: Pikmin 3 Opening Week Physical Sales Were Lower On Switch Than Wii U (UK)

Hopefully this gets Nintendo to reconsider their pricing for Wii U ports, though I think the biggest factor was the lack of marketing. Almost forgot this was coming out this week, and Nintendo releasing a Direct 2 days before gave the game no favors. I want Pikmin to succeed, but it seems Nintendo doesn't quite know what they want to do with the series.

@Otherboard It's not silly at all. When Pikmin 3 released originally, the Wii U had sold less than 4 million units. By comparison, the Switch has sold 60 million and isn't slowing down. Every Wii U port should be selling more regardless of price simply because the install base is so much bigger.

@Dman10 I wasn't referring to your situation. I think optimally, the game also should be available as a digital download if possible to maximise access and ease of play. My statement was directed at those who assume a streamed version of a game is worse than a disc/download version without trying both, or so bad that the game shouldn't be available in a cloud form at all.
