Answer 1

Answer:

C. Nintendo produced a sufficient number of games to run on the Wii system

Explanation:

Nintendo Wii Launched in 2006, and as at that time, there were already some major video game players in the market like Xbox 360 and the Play Station 3.

In order to ensure dominance in the market, Nintendo decided to make available a wide variety of games for their customers.

The games made available include:

• Games from Nintendo's flagship franchises like The Legend of Zelda, Super Mario, Pokémon, and Metroid.
• Nintendo also expanded their game numbers by receiving third-party support from companies such as Ubisoft, Sega, Square Enix, Activision Blizzard, Electronic Arts and Capcom.

This made more games to be developed for Wii than for the PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360.

• Nintendo also brought up the virtual console service that allows users to play games developed for some other consoles on the Wii. These games were distributed over the internet, and users were able to download them to an SD card or the internal memory of their Nintendo Wii console.
