What's even more amazing is how quickly they turned everything around from the last generation which was a complete failure.

and how does everyone else (for the most part) just dream about it?

Couple of days ago I was bored and thinking the same thing, then I made these two pies (yeah, I like fancy graphs). Just to illustrate your point:

Those charts really put the rest (gaming companies) to shame

They go through a process, many games from Nintendo take years and years to be realized. I'm talking 10 years sometimes from conception of ideas to release. They also cancel a lot of games that they don't think will be fun in the end. Making a game at Nintendo is different to anywhere else, a lot of prototyping goes on everyday before any game really gets put into production.



 

Yup, Nintendo has just been incredible this generation, infact their software sells well every generation.  They seem to really know what the people want and are not scared to innovate.  Mario is a 20+ year old franchise and it still manages to feel fresh each generation. 

I'm glad their games sell well, Nintendo deserves it.  And what a comeback from the days of the gamecube!



The dude abides   

They innovate before everyone else. That's how they do it.

I can't count the Nintendogs and Brain Age clones out there....



They make fun games that appeal to many



they understand markets, they don;t try to sell a motion controller to the hardcore masses, they know who it will appeal to, their marketing is genius and Nintendo are masters at advertising.
