LOL @ people thinking Nintendo can steal the core from Microsoft ... er no chance.

It takes more than horsepower to attract the core, and Nintendo's IPs are just NOT attractive to the core crowd, coupled with the fact they don't have online in their blood and they'll forever be behind MS in that department, heck only Sony is catching up now.


All I see is finally Nintendo fans will get to play games we've been playing for years. There will be plenty of ports. 

Is there any point? It's already been shown the wii userbase doesn't appreciate the core offerings they get. If Wii 2 is aimed at the core, it won't attract anywhere NEAR the amount of core owners PS360 has. and if it's a casual system again, they simply won't be buying Assassin's Creed ect in the numbers PS360 do.

I just don't think Nintendo can ever go after the core and be a sucess. I think they need to stick to what they now know and come up with something to entice the blue ocean all over again.

I do think Nitnendo are now realising how unloyal that sector is though, does make me wonder why MS and Sony, MS obviously more so, are going after them.


All they need is CoD. That's what saved PS360 this gen.

If you want loyalty, I suggest you look at the numbers that a game like Mario Kart pulled this gen compared to those loyal Gran Turismo fans. NSMB DS to Wii, Wii Sports to Wii Sports Resort, Wii Fit to Wii Fit Plus. They look pretty loyal to me and they don't even have online in their blood. Well except for the biggest online game since 2005, Mario Kart.


Funny, I don't remember those MarioBros fans being so loyal when the gamecube was around. COD didn't save the HD twins, I've seen your posts before though so I'm not even going to bother with you.

I don't remember a Mario Bros game on the Gamecube.

Edit: You didn't like my 'Nintendo should go 3rd party' thread?
