Presentation Report
The Nintendo Wii U has struggled to get its share of the gaming ma
rket ever since its launch in late 2012, in spite of the fact that it has a
pretty good lineup of exclusive titles, but after this years !", the unde
rdog seems to have gotten back onto the radar of the community#
This past !", Nintendo $ent all out, revealing a ton of exciting stu%, $
ith a ne$ presentation format and a focus on $hat matters most, a ton
of games and a lot of actual, in&game footage sho$ing exactly $hy so
meone $ould play its games, instead of hype&building '()#
*pparently, Nintendos decision $as the right one, as its Wii U console
seems to have noticed a surge after the gaming trade sho$, according
to a research conducted by (ames)ndustry and )+,#
*ccording to the report, Nintendos praised presentation, along $ith t
he release of the acclaimed and highly anticipated -ario .art /, has b
reathed ne$ life into the Wii U, $hich has seen an increase in sales all
around the $orld in the last month and a half#
)n fact, the t$o companies survey sho$s that consumer interest in th
e Wii U $ent up follo$ing !", $ith nearly 100 percent more people pl
anning on purchasing Nintendos console no$ than they did before th
e corporations digital event took place#
The survey encompassed all three next&gen consoles, and the results p
ertaining to the 1box 2ne and 3lay,tation 4 are no$here near as dra
matic# (ranted, the other t$o $ere already doing much better than th
e Wii U, $hich could account for the moderate raise in consumer inter

5unny enough, the number of people $ho $ant to buy a 3lay,tation 4
took a slight dive after ,ony !" press conference event in 6une, but th

that the Wii U is actually part of the next&gen console $ar, and not onl
y that, but its the second favorite, $as met $ith derision by many, he
might actually have been on to something#

l alternative to the other consoles, $hich battled for increasingly more
realistic experiences# (amers that are tired of more realistic, gritty an
d grim titles, that come laden $ith social commentary and dramatic m
oments, $ill al$ays be able to 8nd games that are all about having fun
and not taking oneself too seriously on the Wii U
