Please tell me you actually understood what I said? Because you clearly didn't. Do you know why consoles like the Vita struggle? Low player base, there's only so much a company can do to drive sales up to get more games made on a system. If everyone agreed to not buy a console at launch, there would a low install base, therefore companies wouldn't put the time and effort into a dead console.
Hell it's the reason why the Wii U is struggling right now, it has a low install base and 3rd party support is dropping.
But apparently that's what people want, they want a low amount of people to buy consoles at launch so that there is lower support because you know. Logic.
I mean dear god South Park's latest episode understood this better than most people who surround themselves with gaming!
Edit: Also to make something more clear before it get's brought up... While yes, the original Wii did in fact sell a shit ton, but still didn't have third party support is for another reason all together. Whereas on other consoles third party titles sell well, typically on Nintendo consoles they fare quite poorly, only really Nintendo games sell well. Considering many of the users of the Wii were casual (not saying that casual is bad, mind you), and most likely didn't pay attention to many of the third party games outside a few, the console lost much support in terms of third party.
Not to mention the power issue.
If you don't think I understood what you said then why should I tell you that I did.
If the companies want us to buy our products, it's the companies' responsibility to have good games that we can play on them or some other incentive for purchase. It is, in no way, shape or form, our responsability to buy their stuff. That's how it's worked since forever, and what you're saying makes no goddamn sense.
The Wii U is struggling because it's not good enough. That's the reality of it. I'm not the one who should do something if the Wii U's struggling, Nintendo is.
edit: accidentally read Wii U as Vita
