@bold. I agree, but that's not the argument. The argument is not Nintendo's salvation. The argument is Nintendo's dominance in the Red Ocean, and consequentially, their dominance throughout the market. Clarifying: I never said the blue ocean did not save Nintendo. As for if they could compete or not, the gamecube says yes. I've argued this with others, but it is certain that Nintendo could have made a more powerful system than the Wii, and the U is an example of that. I'm not asking for on par with PS360, and I don't believe that would have been necessary. I would argue that Nintendo could clearly have been more competitive on both the HW capabilities of the Wii, as well as the output of high quality Red Ocean games like Metroid Prime. That didn't happen. How much would that have stolen from resources evergreen product development? Not that much imho, we would have lost 1 game (DKCR) with 1 red ocean product. |
Well, yes I do believe Nintendo could have done even better if they had had HD; they'd certainly get better 3rd party support. Had they gotten good 3rd party support sony and MS wouldn't have sold as many consoles as they did either. And regarding GC; Nintendo didn't compete witht that - they just managed to survie and make money. That's not competing.Nothing could have compete with PS2

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
