Ninetendo has been running at a loss for some time now, so they are experienced at that. This should also tell them the importance of getting a good product to market. Unless they do it will not last.  I don't know why they don't make their consoles upgradable likee the pc, add more ram, etc. I put a 500g disk in my PS3. i don't think they know the market that well (gamecube), and just got lucky  with the Wii. It won't last. I suspect they will stick to what they know, even though they got mounds of cash in the bank, and won't sell at a loss.


What's that have to do with anything?  PS3 and Xbox weren't really upgradable except when it came to storage space, and the Wii U has that with external hard drives.  Nintendo was the only manufacturer I can think of that really upgraded there system in the way you describe, with the N64 Ram, unless you count all the CD add ons from the 16-bit era.  I do agree that leaving the option to upgrade your console once in a generation would be pretty sick.
