This generation Nintendo made a mistake. If they only knew what their Wii has become today. They would have made their console a lot stronger. Because right now they are seeing all big third party games on PS360. The Wii could really dominate this generation. Unfortunately Nintendo isn't giving core gamers their needs. That's why the market share is 50-50. PS360 - Wii. It could have been 20-80.
I assume next generation Nintendo will attract more core gamers. Their aim should be that all third party developers make games for the new console. High-end system with advanced motion controls.
Nintendo always had a high end system why not next generation? |
This is a rather...dumb statment.
What do you mean by "a lot stronger"? Do you mean HD levels or less? Enhanced graphics wouldn't somehow make the Wii increase nearly 40% in market share. No way. That's crazy talk. Second, HD isn't that popular right now. In some years it will be A LOT more popular (likely next gen...where every system is HD). Again, you expect HD (which isn't extremely popular right now) to bring up the Wii nearly 40% market share?
Also, every dev before the Wii and PS3 launched had in mind the PS3 would dominate the same way the PS2 had, hence why you've seen so many main series titles to be PS3 exclusive (though now most of them went multiplatform with the 360 and some switced to the Wii like MH3).
If they made an HD system this gen I would FULLY expect it to be 3rd place and have the worst third party support for the remainder of the gen. Nintendo would be destroyed.
But besides that, I agree with your last two paragraphs. No doubt Nintendo will win this gen with the Wii and successors to the #1 console ALWAYS get huge support really fast. Just look at the NES --> SNES and PS1 --> PS2. The same will happen to Nintendo's next console. Nintendo's next console will obviously attract more core gamers with the third party support and no doubt the graphics which a lot of people complain about.
Next gen will be...interesting.

By a lot I mean HD graphics like PS3 360. You are right about HD it isn't really popular. However blockbusters are released on PS360. If the Wii was just a strong as those consoles. They would've had FF XIII, Assasin's Creed, Resident Evil 5, Soul Calibur, Star Oceon 4, Orange Box, Far Cry 2, Rainbow 6 Vegas, and so on. Add motion controls and not so many gamers would buy an 360 or PS3 just for their first party games. This leads to 3rd party exclusives for Nintendo and a Ps2ish market share.
