| LordMatrix said: As I said in the Sega fans thread--Nintendo..IMO would be better off as a software only publisher. Let Sony and Microsoft duck it out in the hardware race and let Nintendo publish their games on those systems. Only games worthwhile on a Nintendo platform are typically from them so makes most sense IMO. |
Nintendo is only the most innovative hardware company out there. I'm not a fan of motion controls, but the big N has been the creators that have pushed this industry forward as a whole. They are the first to bring the following things mainstream to consoles:
D-pad
shoulder buttons
3D platformers
analog sticks
wireless controllers (that actually work)
motion controls
They have also been the forerunners in the portable industry. So, I guess I disagree with the hate for NIntendo. They need to continue to create hardware and innovate. I probably shouldn't even be in this thread anyways, as I see no reason for any company to leave, and I'm not mainly a Microsoft fan, but I, like the thread creator, like reading other people's thoughts. I just disagree that Nintendo should leave. I think their first party software would even suffer as a result as they generally release software to coincide with their hardware.
