On the other hand, the Wii was basically just a repackaged GameCube with a new control scheme and it sold over 100 million. Like somebody above stated..."It better have one hell of a gimmick.

Even in this miracle scenario, Sony/MS would copy whatever wundercontroller Nintendo would have fairly quickly this time. They all remember the Wiimote and they both made good money off the Move and especially MS with Kinect. Nintendo would not have a four year window again with something like that to themselves.

Believe me. I wasnt trying to say it was a good idea if that was indeed what they were doing. Even for Nintendo, catching lightening in a bottle twice doesnt seem very likely. On the point of Sony and MS copying whatever they eventually bring to market is the reason Nintendo is aiming for 2017 instead of this year. They want to see the others cards first.



"Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. When I am a child, creating, I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child."
