meaning regardless of if things go extremely well, or extremely bad for nintendo, the drama here will be amusing as always.

I think Nintendo said DeNA will help with the network, but it's something Nintendo themselves is designing and running. They made it sound like DeNA's involvement was more of a just in  a secondary role. 

The main reason DeNA is there is because Nintendo is not used to/can't supply the daily smartphone content that would keep people coming back to their apps, that's their main role.

Nintendo was moving in this direction even before the DeNA deal ... remember Miiverse being on PC/smartphones/3DS/Wii U/etc. 

Not drooling over every last crumb of vaugly positive news = hater? righhht.

You can call me a hater when you buy a WiiU, poser.

I think you're on to someting with this! This makes so much sense, BUT, this IS Nintendo we're talking about, so there's a pretty big chance they WON'T do what you have described. It is what they SHOULD do, but I'm not sure if they will.

If they did, and it worked like you describe it, Nintendo would win so much.

Well, I have me a 3DS while I'm waiting, and my NES and SNES ^^

..and my gc, panasonic cube, gb, gbc, gbp, gbm, gba, n64, nes disk system, nes jr, wiiu, 3ds, 3dsll, n3ds, wii, dsl, dsi and virtuaboy.

Catch up will ya?

Lol, and I plan to be the eye of the storm.

Wow you're such a hater Tachikoma, damn. You clearly want nintendo to fail so you can stop spending so much money on their hardware.

im hoping if i buy enough they'll think it's getting popular and pull them from the shelves like amiibos

;)
