Was the N64 a complete failure because it got beat by the highest selling console (at the time)? If the DS ends up being the highest selling console ever, what's the shame in finishing 2nd in that generation? |
In many respects it was, it was Nintendo's fall from grace and the beginning of a great downfall for Nintendo leaving them in the catch up game of third party support they are in now.
Also, the first indicator that a person's argument is running out of steam is when they start comparing the circumstances of the console in question to a console of the past. I'd suppose you'd have us think the PS3 will be a success becauseits sales are relative to those of the PS2 its first year?
