Did you undertsand it? Harvard. An ok school, I'll read up using literature from Cambridge. Hey now that means I can predict the future better than you. So natal hasn't fulfilled the need for the job it's supposed to. you know this because it's out already? Because you've tried it? It doesn't do full body depth tracking? Oh wait? Guess it's filled it's brief. Please, leave your snobbery at the door. You can't predict the future and to flat out claim you can is laughable. You don't know, very few do and those that predict it accurately were lucky than anything else. Did you predict the success of the Wii? I bet you did. |
Actually these strategies were the very strategies Nintendo employed this gen, Reggie even pointed them out in 2005 (blue ocean and disruption)

It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
