I can say this now, are you happy now hardcore gamers?

I admit I acted like the so called ""hardcore"" gamers here to make fun of them. Because while they moaned and bashed there skulls against the keyboards saying Nintendo was killing gaming, it was all in fact the opposite.

Nintendo was bank rolling and keeping this industry healthy, do you really think Sony or Microsoft who lose billions of dollars are able to carry this industry now? Who can't even come up with their own ideas? You think third party's are going to save this industry? How long till Call of Duty runs out of steam?

Now you got a system that caters just for you and Nintendo is returning to obscurity. Thanks a lot, I loved getting games like Punch out and New Super Mario bros, but now we are returning to N64 ports and boring 3d games.


let me give you a more serious answer then what the others are offering you.

yes.  i'm happy.  estatic even.  i've been exchanging texts with 4 other friends over the last day -- all owners of a wii -- all disgusted by the promises nintendo made and how completely nintnedo failed to meet any of them.  between my wii, extra wii mote, classic controller, balance board, and 2x motion plus attachments i feel increadibly gyped by nintendo.  promises of experiences that would be possible but never came.

nintendo's situation isn't the "hardcore gamers" fault, it is nintendo's.  but i'll tell you this, this is the first generation i ever bough a non-nintendo console.  i've been a life long nintnedo fan all the way from the NES up until a few years ago.  now i'm celebrating their downfall amongst my friends.  that should give you a rough idea of how mad i am at them.
