It's interesting to me how any downturn Nintendo has is always blamed on someone else. Third-party publishers and developers, other gaming manufacturers, even the consumers themselves. It would seem that Nintendo has zero control over their own destiny.
Seriously, what is up with this whole victim's role mentality? Why can't it have to do with Nintendo making poor decisions, or other companies making the best decisions for their own businesses, which what they are supposed to do? Or how about this one, how about some consumers not buying Nintendo consoles simply because they like something else more?
Nintendo is a big boy. It doesn't need excuses. This isn't an environment where others are obligated to keep Nintendo going just because. It's not an environment where developers and publishers are willing to take less profits just to make Nintendo systems popular. If they think their resources are best spent elsewhere then that is their prerogative.
So, really, quit it. The Wii U is going to be fine. It's in a niche role because that is where Nintendo has placed it. You can no more blame Microsoft or Sony for trying to take market share than you can Apple or Galaxy. Everyone is trying to get ahead, including Nintendo.
Nintendo is following their own beat and that's perfectly fine. However, you can't hold it against anyone else if they prefer a different set of drums entirely. |
No-one ever suggested that Nintendo isn't at fault for a lot of the stuff that happens to it, however the belief that the industry and the media are perfectly fair towards Nintendo is equally laughable

as far as the media is concerend there is a huge bais against both sony and nintendo, not that they both dont have media outlets in their favore, but you can easily see bais against them anyday of the year. i dont know why but one of the reasons i believe this is because both these companies are japanese while MS is american, and a lot of the media (specially gaming media) is american
