What would Nintendo have to do with the NX to get you onboard?

[Fatboi1]

This question is mainly directed towards the main console crowd(PS4/XBox).
What would they need to do to get you to at least consider the system?

Would a unified and improved online structure/account system do it?? Something basically on par or better than what's offered feature wise for PSN/XBox 1.

Would much more prominent western IP's showing up on the NX matter?? If say Battlefield, GTA, Mass Effects and whatnot appeared on there and looked much better(Rumors saying the NX will be slightly more powerful than PS4), would that be a factor?

Controller wise, if they made a dope controller that was comfortable and also pretty unique, would that be a factor?

What about cost?? Would it costing less than $400 push you towards it?

New IPs and classic Nintendo IP's; would they be a factor?? Wii U has some excellent 1st party games we know, but if Nintendo had those AND some new IP's that seemed to look more mature(basically a Halo, Uncharted, Gears of War) but on Nintendo, would that matter?

I wonder because I know some of you guys are invested into PS4/Xbox 1 and no matter what you won't switch consoles because you're comfortable there. Now if the NX had all this, would you at least consider it as secondary console? I'm curious as to what Nintendo does wrong that makes people overlook them pretty much each gen(save for the Wii fad).

they need to go 3rd party imo

Nintendo will always have me on board because i will always be interested in the next main Mario/Zelda/Smash Bros etc

But for the casual fan Nintendo has to stop with the gimmicks. Give us a normal controller thats compatible with EVERY game. Create a console on par with the competition so they dont miss out on triple a 3rd party games(CoD/GTA etc) and do a COMPLETE rehaul of their online system to compete with XBL.

Normal controller and games for the fukking gaming console.

Just dont be a weak console, have good online that's up to standards that were set in 2000 and have as many 3rd parties on board for the entire lifecycle instead of just launch.

A comfortable controller that doesn't feel like some gimmick shyt. Lots of games and an assurance the system won't be abandoned in 3 years...

There's nothing they can do to get me onboard. At this point Nintendo consoles are proprietary Nintendo boxes one only buys to play Nintendo games. That won't change regardless of what they do.

I want them to stop putting out hardware and focus on making games. Partner with Sony or Microsoft and let a company that's actually decent at making hardware handle that.

It does feel like Nintendo should go 3rd party at this point. They refuse to adapt because they have so much money to burn through.

I will grab the NX when it goes down to $150 or so.

This is exactly what I said in the other thread and people gave me the

Make a console with 3rd party support+their exclusives+ up to date (console) gfx and services.

Nintendo really hasn't made a top tier system since the SNES. The PS1 was weaker but better, the Gamecube was pretty lackluster, the Wii was garbage and the Wii U was even worse.

Just because they make several high quality games in a console generation doesn't mean the systems as a whole are good.

Nintendo's feverish fans will defend them but secretly if Nintendo partnered with Sony or Microsoft and let them put out the console and just dropped exclusive games for it I bet deep down they'd be cool with that.

Nintendo not about to go 3rd party. Y'al could dead that idea.

Every Nintendo home console from the NES to the Wii U with the exception of the Wii has sold worse than it's predecessor. The Wii U won't crack 15 million in sales worldwide before it gets discontinued.

NES sold 61 million
SNES sold 49 million
N64 sold 32 million
Gamecube sold 22 million
Wii sold 100 Million
Wii U is at 13 or so million

Unless Nintendo can come up with another gimmick it's clear their diminishing home console audience likely won't push their next system past even the Wii U's numbers. Nintendo seems to drop about a 10 million purchase loss average between most of their generations.
