Nintendo caught everyone with their pants down. They took a huge risk that could have really hurt them or got them where they are today. At first glance, it was the obvious choice to say anyone who takes a step back graphic power wise in a graphic driven industry would obviously spell doom but Nintendo knew exactly what they were doing and it's showing.

They didn't catch me with my pants down. I knew this was gonna happen all along.

The only thing wrong in this prediction was not accounting for Sony's self-sabotage. I'll have to make a note of that in future generation predictions. You learn something new everyday.

This was done before any 7th gen system launched by the way.

Yup John I remember your posts on Joystiq. In fact you and Dolla Dolla were both regulars there so was in fact but I usually posted in different threads then you guys only occasionally popping up to respond to a troll like King off Whales or something.

I called the DS before it was ever released on Spong back in 2004 I cna't find those message boards now.

However as soon as I find them will post them here. The Wii I also called early but was basing that off the DS
