| theprof00 said: My point is that the "Historical" evidence, emphasis on "historical", is only based on the interpretation and the viewpoint. Historical evidence says a lot of things, but one thing it doesn't do is predict the future. Hell, historical evidence would have shown that nintendo would have gone the way of sega last gen. |
History contains the sum total of all knowledge we have on any given subject. Any prediction of the future is based on knowledge which we have gleaned from the past, or it is based on faith. Believe it or not, some people managed to use knowledge, not faith, to predict Nintendo's success this generation.
