Why do you think N64 and GCN did so badly?

PS1 and 2 were not disruptions in that they followed the same trend that had been started with SNES, this was not crappy products for crappy consumers, Disruption is about two types of strategy, new market disruptions target nonconsumption, while low end market disruptions target overshot consumers, the Wii is doing that, as is the 3DS, the PS1 and 2 did not.

ROFL, the 3DS proves that Nintendo isn't going to make the mistakes of old and just release a console that just upgrades small things, there's no point to making the next system a 3DS HD system, as their competitors will do the same, the next system needs to do something different.

 

@Dallas, just because you cant see it doesn't mean Nintendo doesn't already have a dozen ideas

I never said they did badly, the N64 was actually an awesome console. But they both added really nothing groundbreaking to the console landscape. So why are you so sure that Nintendo won't do that again? What can they add to a Wii2 that will be groundbreaking?

Don't get me wrong, I like Nintendo, but I do not have as much faith in them as many Nintendo fans. And for me actually they have never developed a better console than the N64.


If I knew what Nintendo could do, I'd be working there right now making millions and taking home some of those money printers, but I don't know, I can only see their corporate philosophy and actions and judge based on that
