Nintendo has pissed off the 3rd developers in those times... and that's why its been lacking in 3rd party. On the N64 Nintendo didn't want to switch to CD and games like Metal Gear Solid weren't possible and thats why it was only found on Playstation... otherwise we'd have Metal Gear Solid 64 in those times. They were pretty darn arrogant. - The fans... the "hardcore" gamers aren't exactly confident with Nintendo because of the Wii... I'm a lifetime Nintendo fan (until the Wii hit) and I'm not going to get the next Nintendo that easily... Nintendo needs to do something HUGE next gen to win back the "hardcore" gamers it lost with the Wii... but at the same time it would benifit them to keep the casaul, kid, moms, grandma/pa markets too. Next Gen they have come out with a lot of games because it would need to satisfy both these markets.
My money is on Nintendo sticking to the casaul, non-gamer market and basically being the way it is now because it's easier... but I think it won't be as successful this time around because all those kids playing Wii right now... are growing up and will be the Teens of next gen and will want play big boy games more. That said I predict next gen will be the gen of Teen and Mature games and I hope Nintendo gets a well deserved hit for thier betrayal to a good chunk of thier traditionand fanbase (I know some of themare actually okay with Nintendo right now... as hard as that is to believe) become the next Sega and then Apple come out with the AppleBox and blow all the consoles way super high tech graphics and games haha jk |
You know, with Nintnedo games being in better shape than ever, and with almost every first party game they have released are way superior to their gamecube counterparts, and how many old franchises they are bringing back (SMB, DKC)
I really don't think that people like you, who say that Nintnedo has betrayed them have ever been fans of Nintendo.
I LOVE ICELAND!
