| Str8knox said: Did you just say that the Wii sells to people who aren't making the jump to hd? nintendo gamers only? (one who didn't start owning a console or any Ninty games until the Wii) Okay, there is no need to respond to this then. And I won't. Sorry but a LOT of your points are flawed on Nintendo's part, but whatever. believe what you want. |
Nintendo is not trading on graphics this generation, they're just not. It's not a dis on Nintendo, they freely say that they are not going for the "Number One Super HD HUB prize" that Sony and Microsoft are chasing. They sell to people who are not as concerned about how a game looks as they are other things. Noone is picking up Mario Kart Wii for its cutting edge photo realistic graphics.
Some people like the best graphics possible, some people like Nintendo type games with that distinctive look and gameplay. It's like picking between Star Wars and Star Trek, people usually just like one or the other for more or less inexplicable reasons.
Either way the point is that chasing the high priced console top of the line graphics prize has no point for Nintendo, they do better with a low starting cost and older graphics (ala Wii) then they do with current gen graphics and a higher price (ala gamecube).
