Nintendo is not invulnerable. They can't afford to get complacent. No matter how great they may be doing now, everything can change extremely quickly.
That being said, I don't think they have anything to worry about for the rest of this generation, as long as they stick to their current strategies of blue ocean and disruption. As far as Apple competition, I don't see them as a threat. |
That's not really what this thread is about, it is about actually killing Nintendo not stopping them from being 1st place. Nintendo has already shown that they can make a good profit while having a tiny userbase and only getting only token 3rd party support. On the contrary Nintendo actually made more profit than Sony did in the PS2 era, Sony made more in the PS1 era. From 1997-2006 before PS3 started whiping out all the profits Nintendo and Sony were at a virtual tie in profits even though Sony ruled the console landscape the entire time. The point of the thread is that if the PS2 can't kill Nintendo, then what could??? The PS2 had bigger market share than any console will probably ever have again.
You can't kill Nintendo without taking away their software, someone would need to make games that makes people forget about Mario, Donkey Kong, Kirby, and Link. Not an easy task.
