An amusing article to post on an NPD day like this:

http://seekingalpha.com/article/77347-video-game-industry-one-of-the-most-attractive-areas-to-invest?source=yahoo

Key quotations:

The Nintendo (NTDOY.PK) Wii is not worth developing for. It is nearer the end of its life cycle than the other two consoles and it is mainly first party games published by Nintendo themselves that sell. Third party titles from other publishers are mainly low quality shovelware that have now frightened the consumer off.

The two handheld consoles, the Nintendo DS and Sony PSP are also not worth developing for despite the immense numbers of these that have been sold. Quite simply, piracy has ripped the market up. Vastly more people will steal your game than will pay for it.

 

 

Objective analysis if I ever saw it. Have fun, guys.


Who says this and where was I!?

 

Apparently the two best selling game consoles of all time aren't worth developing for.

 

I mean, seriously, stop the presses. The fad is over.

 

....however, by his logic, the PC isnt' worth developing for, and RE4 and GH3 never existed.

 

This foeboyism just continually tops itself week after week.


 I didn't see any mention of the gameboy or the ps2 in the article


The PSX and the PS2 are the two best selling consoles of all time.

The DS may get close to the PSX, but the PS2 is untouchable.
