Too long, but I read it all. Sorry bud but I do not agree with you. I use my hard earned money to buy the games I want. I do not own anything to any company nor they owe me anything.

The part that nintendo lacks about investing money back on gamers is a fallacy. The mayority of people who claim they enjoy nintendo games tent to praise gameplay as the sole reason why their games are good, and while I agree they focus a lot on gameplay, reakl nintendo fans know just how detailed crafted those games are. If you really put attention you'll notice the attention to detail put on most of their games is staggering. The may not create those huge GTA/Fallout worlds, those ultra detail racing games or some ultra violent games, but that does not deny the fact that they are tremendously efficient and amazing game crafters.

The OP doesn't say what Nintendo must do, only what they have done.

Personally, I find that gameplay-focus argument a fallacy. Nintendo only invests on cheap gameplay. Not cheap like bad, the games are fun. Cheap in the sense that is really easy to do what they do once you have their talent. Open-world is expensive, simulating physics is expensive, non-linear story telling is expensive, stochastic-animations-based gameplay is expensive, complex artificial intelligence is expensive, etc. Nintendo does none of that. And I'm only talking about gameplay, not graphics.

I, as a gamer, don't care much about graphics. Gameplay and content are what matters to me. And I would never buy a Nintendo console precisely because they only have cheap gameplay.
