Saying that "the industry is collapsing" is dead wrong though, it is set to have doubled in gross turnover over the course of one decade (2005-2015) and is very much alive; it has simply changed. There is still a sizeable market for more traditional home consoles if done right, but Nintendo isn't really tapping into it and so you go into sales threads and proclaim the death of the whole industry, that way everyone is screwed and that makes you feel better. You can deny it all you like, but anyone with an incling as to what you've been saying and predicting in here know this for a fact, one doesn't have to look further than the UNITY thread for proof, you were part of the "Just you wait and see!" crew and now you've suddenly started diving headlong into all-encompassing doom for everyone instead, it's a remarkable change of heart and one that warrants suspicion. You're saying this to feel better; period. You've at least come to some important realizations since the UNITY thread was hot, but you still have a long way to go if you keep on insisting that going from 35.000.000.000$ to about 70.000.000.000$ in ten years is considered a "collapse". Like someone else mentioned; the Wii U is not representative of the gaming industry as whole, not even close. |
The console industry is collapsing...... nope, I don´t feel better.
Seriously now, i really believe this model (consoles with AAA games that require enormous budgets) doesn´t work. BUT, and it´s a big BUT, i firmly believe that Nintendo will be the most succesfull one of the big three by this gen end.
