Forums - Gaming Discussion - The Nintendo NX will be dead on Arrival.

I don't think NX have to be saw like Xbox or PS... It's a new concept !
Nintendo can make error, but they aren't stupide... I think they gonna make somethings différent, perhaps don't wait about third... In fact, NX don't remplace wiiu or 3DS, because its différent, but anyway Nintendo will make his new games only on NX.

It wasn't gamers who came with the humiliating lunchbox design. Nobody would convince the teenaged me to buy that and be ridiculed by friends with a cool, black PS2.

Literally every person that found out I had a Gamecube had a reaction along the lines of, "Yo, that's dope! You got Smash Bros? Can I play?"

Y'all must be backwards as hell in Poland if the physical design of your console actually mattered, especially at 16-17 years old.

I'd appreciate keeping such ignorant nationalistic remarks to yourself. GCN failed in America and Western Europe, not in Poland. It was you who decided to pick the cool PS2 instead of the ridiculous purple lunchbox GCN. It didn't fit your taste - and I can see how. I don't know a single person who's ever even heard of Smash - Nintendo doesn't give a damn about our market. We got no marketing, no info, just a humiliating design that looked like sh*t on the cabinet, was overpriced as hell and almost impossible to get hold of, so nobody ever cared. We weren't given any chance or any reason to want it. You were the ones that rejected it.

And if you think physical design doesn't matter, then I guess you've missed countless threads comparing PS4 to Xbone. It matters. Nintendo being labeled as childish has always mattered and still does - if you refuse to accept that, that's your problem, but don't insult people because you choose to be ignorant.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

Just reading all the hardcore gamer speak in this thread makes me sigh. Did you guys who know so much about the console market ever read a book about creating successful products? Did you get extensive education on this topic? Do you own a company? I just wonder why people think they are qualified to judge why Nintendo's past consoles succeeded or failed or why its future products will be dead on arrival.

Not pointed at anyone in particular. It just strikes me as odd whenever I read through these discussions. Because I've never heard anyone with actual knowledge in marketing or product development talk about "casuals" and the authors of both Blue Ocean Strategy and the Innovator's Dilemma would cringe if they knew how people on gaming forums misinterpreted their theories.



Haha, I wish I could sense the future too. We know nothing about the damn thing. You can't make claims like this before we know anything.

If Just Dance is the only game Ubisoft will bring to NX, Nintendo needs to cancel it. Casuals don't buy consoles anymore, and hardcore gamers will think the system is a joke.

A fallacy people make is that casual gamers only buy casual games, and other gamers never buy casual games. This is like saying that only comic book geeks watch comic book movies and other people never watch comic book movies.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Never is a harsh term. But one could say casual gamers probably dont buy a lot of games that would be considered non casual. You can just tell by the sales.

I think causal gamers moved to $699 iPAD's with 4G LTE + 30 a month phone plan.  mobile gaming!



Nah, it's dead right now. /s

Wii U didnt compete and it still failed.

It failed because it competed with last gen systems
