And the MASSIVE amount of Nintendo confidence continues. People on here are really on a tear about the 3DS this and the 3DS that. You would think this was the second coming or something. Sony had the highest selling video game system ever in the PS2 and had over 100 million sellers. They were unstopable coming into this generation and got out to a slow start. The PS1 and PS2 won their generations and now Sony is losing this generation. Things change.

 

People should wait before they signal the 3DS the king.

 

No one is unbeatable.

The major difference here is, most Sony systems did not sell due to their own games. They largely sold due to third parties (the PS2 and PSP, anyway). Nintendo has shown it can carry a system almost entirely by itself, so if third parties support them, how can anyone compete?

Even if Nintendo's next few consoles somehow end up constantly declining in sales, it should take a very long time (over 10, 15 years) for them to start becoming irrelevant...

yeah they can atleast survive 2 more gens without making profit with the money currently stored
