@ClaudeLv250- please tell me huge games that will come out for the Wii that will have the appeal SSBB or MK will have.   I dont really see Nintendo making alot of new IP.  It is pretty much down hill.  What do they have left?  A new DK and Kirby game.

 

Well SSBB and MKWii are strange qualifiers because few games in the industry sell like that. If we're basing the future of a console solely on those one or two super multi million sellers than I would have to say that the future of all the consoles doesn't look very bright.

Also, you don't think Nintendo won't make new IPs? Really? What an odd stance seeing how they made more new IPs recently than they have since the SNES era. We've gotten:

Pikmin, Chibi-Robo, Golden Sun, Master of Illusion, the Wii line, Brain Training, Soma Bringer, Nintendogs, Magical Vacation (Magical Starsign), Disaster: Day of Crisis, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles (2nd party rights), Eternal Chronicle, Big Brain Academy, Geist, Legend of Stafy, Doshin the Giant (technically a 64DD game), Electroplankton, Ouendan/Elite Beat Agents, True Swing Golf, and many more I'm probably missing. All in the last 6 years, or in other words the average length of a generation.

This doesn't include unnamed new IPs like the one Miyamoto is working on mention as far back as last year, the Matsuno x Monolith RPG which is supposed to get a massive push, offshoots of existing franchises into new territory (Tingle RPG, Donkey Konga, Battalion Wars, etc.), revivals of dormant franchises (Wave Race, Kid Icarus), exclusive 3rd party IPs produced/published by and/or in collaboration with Nintendo (Fatal Frame IV, Monster Hunter 3), the daily updates of the ass-ton of current franchises yet to be represented (F-Zero, StarFox, etc.), and the next installments of franchises already present (Zelda Wii). Really, you think Nintendo just going to stop now when there's so much money to be made?

 

Many of those games you named are nothing more than games nintendboys will recognized.  Most people dont care about those or even heard of them.  Alot of them are DS games that wont always switch over well to Wii versions.

 You have presented nothing that will give much hype or will push console sales.  I have not seen a new Nintendo IP on consoles that is AAA.  Just like the Source said.  Console peak when they release there best games.  This year is nintendo best year.  Nintendo has make a few good games like pikmin and some others but I dont see many console pushers being made.

Your argument just went in another direction entirely. Considering that people can't even decide on what an "AAA" game is in the first place it's hardly a qualifier for new IPs. And only "nintendboys" recognize those games? I don't even know what you're trying to say, they're new IPs so it's not even like there's fanservice to entice "nintendboys" in the first place. Not every new IP is going to be a multimillier seller. It doesn't happen overnight and the ones Nintendo do have planned, they're hardly going to glabbing about on game messageboards for us lowly people to disect the concept.
