The threads make perfect sense, as somethings never change; Nintendo will always be doomed, no matter how well they are doing.

Another thing is, that the amount of "Nintendo is doomed" -threads is comparable to the consoles success. Now that Wii U isn't doing as good as it could (even as it doing better than I had expected), there aren't that many threads dooming it.

@Mummelman: Actually, PS3 was released a week before the Wii (11.11.2006, 19.11.2006).

But one thing that PS3 and 360 had it better at launch than Wii U, that would be the amount of (supposed-to-be-big-hit) games announced, and as we know, too many gamers base their purchase on the hype, instead of the substance.


Japan first, NA one week later but not available in Europe and Oceania (Aus and NZ) (the biggest PS markets by far). Makes it kind of hard to align launches. Globally available, then, would that be a more correct term? Its almost like comparing 360 sales and then removing NA sales at launch, the figure would look drastically different. Mind you, I'm not denying that the PS3 had a dreary first year on the market, no wonder either.
