Yes, I am unconvinced until they show they can hold their ground beyond 2011, i'll return with my prediction then

Hehe and here I thought you would at least give me a proper response and counter. Oh well. In any case I do not doubt that the wii is anything but a phenomenal success for Nintendo however I simply do not share many people's quick optimism and declaration of victory. Having said that the wii has performed exceptionally thus far although I simply think that people are being a bit hasty.

 


Yup I mean the NES will collapse and gaming will go back to the PC, after all the NES is only a fad and underpowered, soon people will see the graphics on the PC and abandon the NES

 

 

Oh wait wrong decade


Funny I said none of those things. U making those arguments only back up my points. I have tried to give my honest opinion and have given reasons as to why I think the way I do. If you want to make this a futile sarcasmfest then that is your prerogative and I will not parttake. Later

 


Not trying to be sarcastic, just pointing out how the past repeats, the NES launched against high powered systems a gen ahead and was thought to be a fad, it drew in a lot of new gamers and had a lot of perhipherals, including fitness games, and it followed a two screen handheld, people thought the NES would fade and that people would abandon it in favor of more high powered gaming, instead it was 20 years before Nintendo stopped producing the japanese famicom vesrion (10 for the NA version)
