True, good games dont go out of date, but people would still have to buy the new consoles to play the recent good games, that goes for any console maker.
Yeah GC had a bad image, it didnt help that it was purple at first. And you're right, they did stop being a family console.
I meant PS2, and yeah they have a complete different image than Ninty
OOT yeah it got ads, I sorta agree with you on the reamke, but if people didnt care then why are they buying a game, that has been available for years and cheaper ins large numbers. Are 3DS owners that starved for games that they are going to pluck down full price for a game that they most likely have played at least once before? Sure it has little competition but contrast that to Nintendogs, that game did a killing on DS, and the new one has yet to cross a million (its close) and that was released at launch, Zelda OOT was released not too long ago and it already passed it. It has to be more to it than just, OOT had a lot of ads.
I dont know, ive heard people complain about more than just a few games. But yeah they are in the minority for the most part, most people just buy another platform for those anyway

You know, you really caught me off-guard with Ocarina of Time. That game actually doesn't have anything to do with the article, because it was the last game before Eiji Aonuma took over. OoT was directed by Shigeru Miyamoto.

Excuse my ignorance, but i have no idea who directs what. Oracle of Ages/Seasons are fantastic and i wouldnt know if Capcom developed them unless I seen it flash on the screen. I only mention it, because it was in the article. What I got is that Mr. Malstrom believes that the 2d games will always outsell the 3d ones, which is not true in every case. Most, but not all. Zelda is one of those rare cases, GTA as well and i cant think of another

Not always. He's stated that racing games actually work better in 3D, since the racing is represented proper. He's also stated that FPS works better with proper 3D (cites Doom as a classic game, and notes that Call of Duty has great multiplayer, which is what makes it a hit). And GTA is actually something he says does the promise of 3D Zelda better than the 3D Zelda games did.
