If they don't hit the ball out of the court with NX, it could do worse than the Wii U.

This could be the most critical hardware release in all their time as a console manufacturer. They either hit a home run, or they're fucked.

It's kinda funny how people probably said the same 10 years ago.

But yeah, the situation is even more extreme this time.

Well yeah, that's the thing, they were in a similar situation back then, albiet less extreme, but in that instance they did came out guns blazing and hit the ball out of the park with the Wii.

Obviously the exact same trick won't work twice, but they need to do something similarly brilliant and ballsy with NX if they want to reverse ther fortunes. They've come back from the brink before, the question is, can they do it again?

That's what makes 2016 a very interesting year for Nintendo. While doubting them is valid, I don't know if we should count them out just yet. Especially since they do not appear to be close to folding as a business anytime in the near future.

We'll just have to see what they have up their sleeve. They can disappoint, but also create pleasant surprises. With everything that they announced last year (i.e., mobile, theme parks, raising awareness, etc.), who knows what this year's E3 will show.
