Wii is platinum and it's not by accident. Given that it followed the DS experiment, here's what the former president and current Board Director at Nintendo had to say about it:

"The DS represents a critical moment for Nintendo's success over the next two years. If it succeeds, we rise to the heavens, if it fails, we sink into hell."

• Hiroshi Yamauchi, "Hiroshi Yamauchi On Nintendo's Future"

How's that for a doOmed post?

 

Bolded part: lol, whut?  how did the "Dolphin" revolutionize  gameplay exactly? 

Oh and the DS introduced the wiimote! Hey, thanks for the tidbit bro, you learn something new everyday....

Everyday man. Check this video dated 2005, time 25:30 to 26:00

DS was the test for the revolution. Also mentioned somewhat here (quoted below):

Writer states: "In a sense, the DS is almost the epitome of Nintendo's vision for the future, which could explain why Hiroshi Yamauchi had said that Nintendo would be crushed if the machine fails in the market. Of course, if the DS were to fail in the market, this would not be enough to bring down Nintendo itself. However, it would definitely call the company's overall philosophy into question."

Looking back at that video just shows you the man's business genius in the games industry. No wonder the press release for the new console is so relaxed. You get a feel these people know exactly what they're doing, 20 steps ahead.

well the ds was their biggest handheld to date and the wii did what the ds line up did so who knows maybe they could have something here that will blow everyone away
