NES - 4?!

That just means 2 things:

1-the majority of users may be so young that they think that gaming started with the Playstation

2.-Videogamers became ungrateful and forgot their roots.

Both are sad and dissapointing.

Thanks to the NES we have gaming as we know it.
Thanks to the NES console gaming didn't died.
Thanks to the NES we had the Gameboy
Thanks to the SNES Nintendo made their trilogy of errors (VB, N64, GC)
Thanks to the SNES games became "hardcore"

*shakes head*

lololol Because the N64 and GCN were errors.

 

Oh I am sorry but were those consoles succesful?!

 

As a matter of fact, yes! Remember, Nintendo made money from those, even if they lost in marketshare. The point of entering this industry is to have your goods sell and to make money in return. Even when Nintendo was losing, they were winning. And many fans feel that the N64 was arguably Nintendo's best console.They are able to mop the floor with Sony and Microsoft this gen because of continuing to make money and keep on chugging, thanks to the efforts of both the Gamecube and Nintendo 64 (which btw, still has THE MOST CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED GAME EVER under it's belt).

 

They had profit but lost credibilty, marketshare and position. They have losing customers with each console.

 

how on earth is succesful? yes they made profit but lost customers. That cannot be succesful AT ALL.

 

They recovered customers with the wii because they imitate the NES.

 

Google:

define: success

an event that accomplishes its intended purpose

 

I'm pretty sure Nintendo, as a company, had the main goal of making money, which they did. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Nintendo made more with the N64 and GCN than Sony did with the PS1 and PS2.

 

And that still doesnt change the fact that I think you're being silly. In my opinion, the N64 was better than the NES because I had more fun with the former console. Nothing you can say will change that.
