Nintendo got lucky this generation with the motion controls and how easy consumers fell into the hype, this won't happen again next gen, this is when Nintendo will be in trouble just like the previous two gens. |
Game companies seem to get on top because they seem to "get lucky". Atari had arcade ports locked up. Then Nintendo came with the right mix of graphics with the NES (and on portable front, software+battery life). After this you had Sony come along with the use of CD's and polygons. The PS2 had DVD. And now Nintendo got it with motion control.

That is a very good observation and comment there richard!

Thanks. I have seen far too many companies come and go, to not notice this. Go watch Bladerunner and see the Atari Mt. Fuji symbol as a reminder of things. As it is now, the only constant company has been Nintendo. Other companies have risen up and went down. Nintendo is the only ones that have endurance and stick around. However, what is top dog tends to be the one that guessed right on what the market growth area is. Who knows what will be after motion control? I am doubtful it is 3D as a major factor.
