the begining of the end of nintendo.

3ds could end up not doing very well. i suffered the same problems of headaches etc which are being widely reported in the press. its all a bit virtual boy imo.

i think wii2 will suffer a similar fate and by 2020 we could all be playing mario on xbox and pokemon on apple

No you didn't! All those reports are lies!! (according to most users of these forums). The other day I mentioned that I got headaches using the 3ds and was massively attacked by the ninty fans who ended up telling me that there is something wrong with my eyes and the whole thing is a myth.

OT: I'm pretty sure that the 3ds will do fine. It doesn't cost much (unlike the ps3/psp) so Nintendo can easily cut the price and see the sales skyrocket (not that it's not doing great already).

Having said that, I think the 3ds is a bad move from Nintendo. Part of the reason the ds was so succesful was it's low price. Parents could quite easily afford it for their children, but now it's seems too expensive for a gift (IMHO). Plus although the 3d could be turned off, the parents would be reluctant to buy something that could cause their kids headaches.
