After all Nintendo went in to this generation thinking only their games would keep it alive, like Gamecube.
Can PS3 survive by itself? Of course not. I can't wait to see what the other jap. dev. do to react to this.
The most interesting point i find is that the classic argument around the wii, that it isnt powerful enough to motivate dev. to bother making great games for it, is now null and void. Its only a matter of time b4 other dev. think the same thing.
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
