Over dramatic Nintendo is doomed thread #314361
These sorts of threads have been going on for almost two decades now. You can safely hold back those tears young boy and realize that each generation offers new opportunities; and Nintendo's hardware staff is at work devloping the way to best exploit them.
Sometimes they fail, but typically companies do not dominate more than 1-2 generations in a row. Nintendo has about a 50% rate of winning generations. |
I guess you missed the decades long fall of their console sales, wii disrupted it and now back to where they were actually they are trending under GC if im not mistaken. They are on a long path that leads out of hardware, same way atari and sega went. This industry is not very forgiving and new players enter and rise.
Its almost a natural progression of leading doing well not so well and out of it, and they are nearing out of it.

They are no where near being out. They have huge cash reserves and literally zero debt, but being a business is about being profitable as much as possible. One thing they do need to do is to attract a wider audience, the "cores" and the "casuals,"to sell more consoles (games like SSBU and Mario Kart 8). As of now, they have mostlyattracted Nintendo gamers onto the WIi U, but games like Bayonetta 2 ot X can bring in different people to experience the exclusives the Wii U contains. 3rd Party support has allways elluded Nintendo since the SNES , so the Wii U will not be an exception to that rule.
