Just read the whole thing, and there are alot of interesting points, I agree with most of them. Couple of things bothered me. Consumers dont expect to buy Ninty hardware and have it be out of date? That makes no sense. They make consoles, consoles become out of date, just like TVs, VCRs, DVDs, anything electronic and you have to update to keep up. Unless he is talking strictly games, then I would agree.
I can see how GC was seen as a kids only console, but N64?? Some of their best games were not exactly kid friendly, GE, PD, Turok etc. ANd if this is the case, why was PS and PS3 so successful, it wasnt like their libraries were that much different and they weren't exactly churning out family friendly games.
I gotta call BS on 3d Zelda. Mario fine, but OOT remains the best selling Zelda game of all time. And surprise, the remake on 3DS is THE best selling 3DS game, for now
He says people dont buy want to buy Wii U with 360and PS3 games on them. What about the people who constantly cry about why this or that game is not on whatever Ninty console they are talking about?? Im sure there are Ninty fans who want to play those games, they might not be alot but they are out there.
I agree with most what he said, but dammit im an n64/GC kid. I grew up playing NES at my uncles house, playing SNES at friends houses, and i loved them, but i love those GC esque games dammit, and if NInty is trying to get those and do their family friendly thing, then let em. IF they cant then they better stick to the family friendly deal, I have not problem buying Wii U and PS4 next gen.
