i dont want them to die i want them to stop making consoles lol. that doesnt mean failure. they could make a lot more money making games only imo


Fair enough I guess, and sorry if I came on strong. But I stil l don't see how anyone would want Nintendo to go 3rd party, unless of coure they simply want to play Mario and Zelda on their PS/Xbox. Which, sorry but to me that's a poor reason. I think it would be horrible for the industry if Nintendo, the last "games only" console maker went the way of Sega, and on a personal note, it would make the games industry as a whole a lot more empty and lifeless to me.

Just saying.

well i could see many reasons why somebody would want nintendo to go third party for instants the only thing i care about from nintendo is mario and zelda, the hardware is not nexten interms of power and i actually want to play most third party games.



Around the Network

There are game companies I want to see fail, but it has little/nothing to do with Nintendo. For example, I dislike Microsoft because of what they stand for, not because they compete. Same with EA or Activision - the support they give Nintendo consoles doesn't affect my opinions of their games. Nintendo is a company, they can handle themselves.

As for people asking, "People's jobs are at stake, how could you hope for them to lose their jobs?" The answer is, I don't think their jobs are productive, so I don't care if they lose their jobs. Seriously, if someone is working for Zynga, am I supposed to feel bad for them when they go down? Obviously it's more in the grey area with some like EA and Activision, it sucks when people lose jobs, but that's life. If you wanted digital / streaming movies to take over physical copies, for example, you indirectly called for all the lost home video / Blockbuster rental jobs. It's the same thing. Asking for change is asking for jobs to be lost.

I still say that Nintendo going third party would be bad for the industry, not good. And a very very sad day for gaming in general.

And again, wishing for a company to fail is silly and pointless anyway. I hate Activision these days, for example, but I don't want them to DIE. I just want people to quit buying their crappy products so much.
