You realize that it's nintendo that started releasing their products with a simple futurustic white look after apple made that look so huge..

Apple is way bigger than nintendo too.. they probably don't really care about nintendo's ipad console(to a certain moderator that warned me, I am not VIOLATING A SINGLE RULE FOR POSTING THIS, whether this post is flaming is subjective, I am not intentionally flaming/spamming, and I called it an ipad console simply because nintendo was influenced by the recent emergence of popular tablets and therefore is releasing a tablet controller for their next console.. the ipad is the primary reason why tablets are so popular today, and therefore I called it their ipad console for that reason, and that reason alone, hopefully u don't decide to warn me.. for a simple opinion.. that isn't targetting anyone)..

As a dedicated manufacturer conference for particularly-styled consumer-forward electronic devices fan, this is so wrong. Nintendo should sue. 



It's a phone a completely different Market, why do people keep comparing phones with games consoles of course apple phones are going to sell more its a mobile phone, the comparison is ridiculous

Maybe Nintendo is trying to steal Apple's thunder by holding its conference the day after?



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

Oh, lo, i'm tired of this apple vs. nintendo stuff.

Wii U is the new home console, it has nothing to do with apple's tablets and smartphones, which are for bigger audience.. and most of which aren't interested in videogame industry.



Doesn't Apple always reveal their new phones in September? And Nintendo has been saying for months they would have a major Wii U reveal in September. It's not exactly a "coincidence," as both companies are gearing up for the start of Holiday season marketing, but they didn't schedule their conferences a day apart intentionally.

If nothing else, all this means is that this week is going to be awesome.
