I'm gonna go ahead and buck the trend here.
Yes, I saw it coming. A friend of mine and I planned for MONTHS to camp out for the Wii. We knew it would be big, and as such, we bought extra consoles and made a hefty profit on them. We didn't just do this at launch, but the NEXT CHRISTMAS too.
Nintendo had learned from there mistakes and it was clear to me that with the success of the DS, they finally found their stride that they were lacking since the SNES days.
So far they've played this generation PERFECTLY. I don't think they could've asked for a better playout of this generation. Sony and MS both calling them a fad, and then having their motion controls copied (MS to come). Mimicry is the most sincere form of flattery. Yet, Nintendo is humble enough not to call them out on it.
Minus the occasional Reggie comment, Nintendo really doesn't get in to this penis measuring contest, because they're confident enough to know they're the biggest whether they whip it out or not.
