And they could make more. Like WAY more. Apple is worth $700b. Disney is worth $100b. Nintendo can literally be both the Apple of gaming and the Disney of gaming at the same time. Nintendo can be that high, but you have to spend money to make money. I already think they are on their way to being the Apple of gaming with the NX. All they need is good branding and a good design for the hardware that looks simple and feels luxurious. But they are being a really poor representative for being the Disney of gaming because of how cheap they are, and I have absolutely no faith that they plan to change that outside of things like the theme park, their IP appearing in TV and films, the rumored BG&E2 rumor, etc. |
That's not bad, I thought they were "poor" lol. I think that expanding the Nintendo brand to theme parks, mobile phones, using their IPs to make films, show, animes, etc. are a nice start to strengthen the Nintendo brand. Let's see how much are they willing to go forward. What I've heard from them is really promising. And I have the feeling that they're on the right way. At least, almost everything we know about this new era looks bright imo.
I must say that I've really enjoyed the WiiU/3DS era, but I'd be blind if I didn't see that they have played really safe. I enjoy AAA the same as budget games if they're good, but I really want them to expand and be sucessful.
