I understand what you are trying to say here, but consider this:
If you need to buy a new TV, do you go to your small, local store ( if there is still any ), or to a big,fat Best-Buy mega-store with hundreds of models on display, even though you only need to buy one ?
Or if you want ice-cream, don't you like to go to those places with dozens of different flavors, instead of your basic chocolate, vanilla strawberry ?
The key word here is variety.
You won't have to buy every frigging game out there, but it's surely nice to have plenty of choices.
Also if you go to a video-games store, by simply looking at the shelf's space dedicated to each system, don't you think that the biggest, most crowded one sends a healthy signal to a potential buyer ?
That's all about it there is.
I understand where you are getting at. And you are partly right. But when i buy a new TV i look for ONE thing, and ONE thing only: Which TV has the best picture for the priceclass I can afford.
I dont care about smart TV, internet and all that other shit. I want a nice, clean picture at a low price. And that's it. As for icecream, I ALWAYS go to my icecream guy of my trust. He has not the biggest set of flavours, but i know that what i get is fantastic - same for pizza btw.
Sure, variety is a good thing but too much variety is just confusing to the point where you're no longer sure what to get. I am in no way defending Nintendo, i have said time and time again that the 350 price point is too steep, that they need 3rd party support and that they should have spaced their games MUCH better, but still, i dont have the need for a gazillion of games - not when i know EXACTLY what I want - a selected list of GOOD games I enjoy playing. Thats why I got a PS3 and a Wii and thats why I got a Wii U - all games i want for the next two years are boundt o be released on those systems - throw in my 3DS for goodmeasure ad I am happy
