| hsrob said: I read the first half a page and the last and I'm pretty sure I didn't miss much. Nintendo didn't ruin this gen by now allowing a broad enough range of games on their system to suit your taste. If i was inclined to point fingers, I'd be looking at third parties who have, for the most part, refused to even give the Wii a chance. Wii's system is underpowered because Nintendo couldn't afford to take a risk on both the controller and manufacturing a system with specs that led to exorbitant game development costs. Nintendo is a gaming company first and foremost and CAN'T afford to get into a pissing contest with much larger rivals who have multiple other revenue streams to back up any losses they make in their gaming divisions. As for your claim that Nintendo's first party titles are lacking this generation due to hardware limitions, you are of course entitled to your opinion, but your opinion is crap and I feel confident that the general weight of opinion is with me on that one. |
You seem to know little
Before the generation started. Nintendo was a 30 billlion doller company. The reason why they didn't make a system
more powerful was due to the fact that its main point was motion controls. They hoped that making the costs low would
get better 3rd party support and more excluesives. But to also to make it diffrent from everybody else. Just like how the
NES,Gameboy and DS were underpowered. They were just following what made them sucessful in the first place
Also GC was $99 and it was the 2nd most powerful system last generation. and they profited from that
