Ah, you do realise that the gameboy essentially kept Nintendo afloat during the N64 and GameCube days right? Also you speak as if PSP didn't affect Nintendo, but Sony's 1st entry into the hand held did a might fine job of taking away about 31% of it's market share, remember before the PSP came in Nintendo all but dominated the hand held market with almost 100% market share...So I'd say Sony PSP took a good 31% of that crown. |
I wouldn't say the PSP took 31% of Nintendo's handheld market. I'd say the handheld market is much bigger now. And yes, I do know about the Gameboy. I've owned several 
I'm not ignorant, I was just pretending to be.
But that's besides the point. I wasn't being serious. I'm simply saying that last time Nintendo were at their 'weakest' so to speak, as viewed by many analysts and their competitors, they experienced the meteoric rise from which they are now 'falling'. Which was bound to happen at some point. No company will see growth like that for a little while now-but it doesn't mean Nintendo are about to get dumped off the top spot. I suppose this isn't really the thread to discuss things like that, really. I was just pre-empting the people who will come in and state that the Wii IS doomed, by being melodramatic and ignorant.
