lol this guy is basically saying if nintendo doesn't come out with the types of games he prefers then they will fail

More like if it's not those mass market games that will please investors, then it will fail (which, actually, is true only if you look at it in the long run).

I guess that's what happened to PS360. Or... those are doing considerably well because they went after the serious, interested gamers. That's obviously what Nintendo needs to join into (to a varying degree at the very least), and saying the contrary is a total lack of insight. I'm not saying you, but the OP and some supporting views are really showing lack of insight in what Nintendo should do to succeed in the future. It's my honest opinion.

I'm not against the idea of trying to establish mass market franchises. But I also don't support the notion that a company should rid itselves of "hardcore" games either. It's all about balancing between the two.

I'm basically stating the obvious, but the OP doesn't seem to care about catering to everyone's tastes. Seriously, the minute games become all about trying to hit widespread appeal (and in turn limiting the creativity of a developer) is the minute I will quit gaming.
