My unpopular assertion #1: Nintendo has no manifest destiny of greatness.

Nintendo must continue to disrupt the market, else find themselves once again in last place

 

I said it before and ill say it again. Nintendo needs to have seperate divisions to deal with mature titles along with their standard formula of family (and now touch gen. or casual) games. Give it a new name, Disney make violent films but its under Buena Vista and its an alternative studio name, not under Disney.

If Nintendo did this, they would be able to take risks and ensure brand integrity, even though they could produce as many standard cliche PS360 killers that they want to. I know Disaster was a fukn disaster but perhaps they need to consider seperating divisions in order to take greater risks (risks as in do the same thing as the other 2).

 

I have to disagree with both of these post. Sony was able to sale more consoles for two generations with out disrupting the market. All they did was get a lot of third parties to support them. That's all Nintendo and Microsoft have to do and is actually what Microsoft is doing. This is why the Xbox 360 is causing Sony problems.

The second post states that Nintendo should have two divisions one for muture and the other for their regular games. No, I think one studio could make one or two mature games but Nintendo can not and should not try to make every genre of game. Third parties are developing mature titles for the Xbox 360 and the PS3. Why can't these same third parties develop mature games for the Wii?
