thx to MHP2 .....GUNDAM MUSOU would be making shockwaves

[Kwaad]

I just want to tell you guys this amuses me. ALOT.

sieanr This is something that's never occured to me, but makes for an interesting discussion. How much does the sale of certain titles influence retailers? I know some of them went overboard with VF5, having giant pyramids of unsold games ect. But would they still see Musou as a system seller, possibly enough for people to have passed up VF5 in anticipation?

ROFL

Nintendo would risk far more by going along the "cheap inkjet printer" route - you know, the printer costs less than the cartridges because they lose money on the printer itself, but hope to recoup the money through the sale of consumables, e.g. inkjet cartridges.

Nintendo? you mean sony and microsoft. Nintendo turns a massive profit on each unit sold. Not looking at the basically 3 required 80$ controllers.

In other words, if people didn't buy that many games from Nintendo, they stand to lose far more than just money. The entire company's foundation can crumble.

Really? I thought nintendo made a good percentage of their money from hardware sales. Microsoft sells the 360 to attempt to get market share. Sony sells the PS3 at a loss, to to assure it keeps market share. Let me just say this. I dont like VF. I dont have any in my collection. and I dont plan on getting any. The new Gundam I want.
