First post sums up my thoughts exactly. |
Just like Nintendo's handheld business went belly up after they replaced the GBA with the DS just three years later right?
And how about that XBox 360? Boy oh boy, no one bought that after being burned by MS replacing the original XBox so quickly.
Nope. People prefer 6 year life cycles where the console is barely supported/marketed at all for the last 2 years, because all that really matters is reaching some arbitrary "year length" cut off date. As we can see the Wii brand didn't suffer at all and it would've been horrible if Nintendo had released an HD capable Wii successor if 2011 or even 2010.
/sarcasm off.
