Dedicated gaming consoles have already died outside of Nintendo.
The 360 and PS3 are more than just gaming machines.
There will still be a place for convergent devices. Tv set top, media streaming, gaming, etc etc all in one box. |
Such is the tragedy of the industry, i suppose. The only thing we can hope for is that Nintendo doesn't get too fixated on this social networking/dlc/online play/multimedia malarkey as well, or else we'll all have to pour out a sacrificial libation for the utter annihilation of a once-proud industry

'We'?
Majority of posers arnt even interested in Nintendo home consoles ..
|
*fixed. True gamers play all good games regardless of the consoles they are on. ;) That doesn't mean all non-Nintendo players are posers, but understand the point I'm trying to make: games are games, no matter the platform. Segregating on manufacturer name is nearly baseless. I understand each console with its vibe and library, but to purely segregate by console manufacturer irrespective of a specific platform (you said "Nintendo home consoles" in general) is illogical imho ...

Given I used facts and not opinions on forums to come to my conclusions, no you didn't fix it your broke it.
Way back when, Nintendo home console did have all the gamers flock to them, it's been a looong long time since those days though.
|
Indeed, your numbers prove my point. There are many posers that buy video games. Thanks Seece! ;)
|
posers? Do you mean posters? Why are you going on about posters. And no the sales do not prove your point that Nintendo has a core home console userbase, actually the opposite, that most if not a huge chunk of the Wii's userbase is casual and buys dance/fitness games. Just look at what charts for the Wii these last 2 years.

I think he means poseurs, education isn't what it was. So you are some kind of flash bastard if you buy a PS3 or 360 but a real gamer if you buy a Wii?
|
Well it seems like a lot of people are buying the 360/PS3 because it's the "cool thing" now... so partially I think that's what he means, but not saying people don't buy it cause they actually like it or anything but it just seems thats what is mostly going on.
