Stop, and preserve your own dignity.

My Dignity is very much preserved, and was never in danger, since no one gave a single reasonable argument why I was wrong, they kept talking about diversity, but NES didn't have that diversity, since it couldn't output 3D, and yet sold very very well, especially compared to the systems which focused heavily on 3D games of Mario, Zelda and Metroid and the like, GCN and N64, and we see with Wii, its version of those 3D games have not added to the momentum or sales of the system, so why have diversity just for the sake of diversity, when systems like NES didn't have those games, and did quite well, and Wii has done better when not focusing on those games.  The only people who should worry about their dignity are the ones who disagree with me without reasoned arguments.

I must think on this.

I have finished thinking on this. I have entered the fray, may God have mercy on my soul.

Why do you think that "diversity" only equates to 2-D and 3-D? You are using the word "diversity" incorrectly, in a way that is meaningless in most contexts.

 

I'm merely using diversity as others used it, I don't like the term much myself, but others said Nintendo needed diversity in terms of the 3D games, I think it was republic who said it perhaps, so I just used it when replying to those people.

My point is that Nintendo , doesn't need to bother with 3D style gameplay that doesn't add value, like Galaxy, Zelda, Metroid (games like Wii sports/Wii fit, while 3D do add value so those are fine), but for the most part, that they should focus on 2D style games, like NSMB and oher old school games, in line with the types of games that were available on the NES and to a slightly lesser degree the SNES, and GB/GBA/DS, for the sake of pushing hardware, and keeping momentum.  That 3D games like Galaxy, Other M, Skyward, are a waste, and those genres of games should be left to third parties if someone wants to make them
