No offense, but I don't understand why it's always Nintendo fans who post threads like this. What are some of you guys afraid of?
Nintendo is by far the world's most successful console/handheld manufacturer and at the same time the most successful videogame publisher.
They sold more than 230 million Wii/DS systems so far, if I'm not mistaken that's more than 100 million more gaming devices sold than Sony since the start of the last gen for these two companies, i.e. the launch of DS/PSP.
As publishers, Nintendo sold - according to VGC data - around 650 million games on Wii/DS, Sony around 125 million games on PS3/PSP, Microsoft around 100 million games on 360.
Even if we'd detract ~100 million bundled Nintendo games from these figures, they'd still be ~400 million copies in front of Sony.
Nintendo is probably the most profitable company in this industry. I see no reason why this should change soon.
