1/Way to rewrite history here. If you weren't aware, the popular prediction back then was something like 80 million for PS3 and 20 million for the Wii by now.
i was talking after the years of launch of both Wii and PS3 noty before them
2/What business stategy? The only one needed is an affordable console with good games on a regular basis. That's it.
no it isn't
you are seeing with phones,pc's and home devices that there is a need for ecosytems and brand mainteinance
nintendo's strategy of coninutally doing new thing is good but very very risky as its hard to innovate constantly especially when you are a sole gaming company and can't innovate technologically
3/No, they just stopped making good games for it.
exactly,if ninty had jkept making good new games and then introduced wiiU then their susccess would have been somwhat guaranteed.
5/Move hasn't been the success you seem to make it look like. It sold a bit, but that's it. And hah at taking risks: the only thing they managed to do is burn through billions of dollars with a safe bet, nothing risky here.
move hasn't been a success but atleast PS3 isn't lacking soemething that Wii had which is what i meant
burn billions of dollars?
blu-ray royalties,ecosytem creation and long term brand relvancy isn't what i would call useless
6/I'm not too sure what you want to say here, but if we're talikng about online, then yes, Nintendo sure is underdevelopped here.
not just online itself.
devices in today's world from pc,phones,consoles aren't living in different worls.they are coming together which is where ninty falls
7/No. Well, at least that would be the smart thing to do. Discontinuing the Wii would be stupid, since they would be cancelling a good revenue stream for no reason.
sure but like you see with 3DS vs DS.when the difference is low then the product image has a threat
It's like the PS2. As for the 3DS, we're seeing a market rejection of the console, and again, disontinuing the DS would be stupid.
no it isn't as PS2 was very popular when PS3 launched.if Wii U would have launched this year on in 2010 fall then the overlap of PS consoles would have applied.
the space between now and then is gonna hurt the brand
market rejection also happens as there is not much of new innovation.
DS can live but ninty can't take DS and say let it go forever as it will not help in long term
8/Wii U and business outlook? Nice one there. Wii U will probably not end up like the Dreamcast, but that's because Nintendo is hell bent on making a GameCube 2, not because of Sony's and Microsoft's strtegies.
yeah i know which is why ninty should correct their actions.they need to understand that decisions should be made according to the buisness enviorment
