| axt113 said: The reasoning of the cafe and the 3DS can only be understood either one of two ways, either Nintendo is stupid enough to repeat its past mistakes, or the consoles were created with the understanding that they are abandoing the consumer. There are no other explanations for why Nintendo after seeing massive success with the Wii and DS, would throw those strategies and ideals away for the 3DS and the Cafe and a strategy of decline. Its not the first time that Nintendo has mde these mistakes, it was the SNES/N64/GCN era that ws Nintendo's first major decline, and it wasn't Sony o Sea or MS that caused it, bt Nendo and their own foolish decisions, even then, Nintendo continued to make the right decisions in the handheld market, and the strategy of the DS not only led to the highest selling system in history, it also helped to lead to the Wii and a resurgence of the company's home console market, th reson for its sucssesses in th handheld and hom console market was a decision to appeal to the old school and expanded audience, those who were put off by the overly complex and uninteresting fare found on the "modern consoles" found a home on the DS and Wii, the same people who rejected 3D Mario were eager to purchase 2D Mario, people who had no interest in violent gritty fare that required complext controls and hours of gameplay, were happy to buy Wii Sports and Nintendogs, brain age and Wii fit. But even with the Wii, Nintendo seemed to leave the promise unfilled, they still tried to jam games like Galaxy and Other M to consumers, even though they were rejected over and over. Cafe and 3DS seem to make clear that Nintendo isn't really interested in catering to the audience that it gained with the Wii and DS, and would prefer to fight in the red ocean while making the games that led to it being the third place console maker, and is even willing to sabotage its handheld market in order to do so. |
Saying things like this make you sound like you want to watch vhs again. Companies keep evolving. They cannot say on one thing for to many years. Wii and ds are more dated now, especially with the smartphone market growing. Nintendo needs better graphics and online. That is something it can not do with the wii or ds. Plus 6 and 7 years on the market is a long time. Seriously stop trolling or what ever you are doing here. I bet you don't complain when apple releases a iphone/ipad each year.
