And why would the nintendo magic be lost if they did those things? All those things are internal software and hardware choices. Not game quality. |
You don't get to cherry pick artistic expression. Every artist chooses an area to focus on and there aren't enough resources to improve in all things. The WiiU is a drastic improvement in online functionality over its predecessor. Now...I understand that business is not art, but the ideas remain the same. Now seriously...since you brought it up...do you think if all those things were changed that Nintendo's circumstances would be different right now? Nintendo is like that dorky kid in junior high that even the dorky kids made fun of so they'd feel good about themselves. And every once in a while that ultra dorky kid becomes king for a day (like what happened with the Wii), but you can't just tell that kid to get some cool sneakers and a nice jacket and everyone will love him. The dork is in his DNA...and you either love it or hate it...respect it, or fear it. All of this commentary regarding Nintendo's position in the console market isn't designed to help the kid...it's designed to bring him down even further. It's bully mentality at its most basic.
