Forums - Nintendo - What should Nintendo invest in with all the money they are making?

Should they buy some video game companies? Should invest in more advertisements? Bribe video companies? Build a Nintendo theme park? Invest in the movie industry? Donate it?

I hope they donate it to Sony :D
Cause I really want Sony to continue making great consoles.

 They've been making big bucks for a decade or more now... nothing new.  So, no new ways of spending money, other than having more cheap consoles in the future.



Numbers: Checker Players > Halo Players

Checkers Age and replayability > Halo Age and replayability

Therefore, Checkers > Halo

So, Checkers is a better game than Halo.

They should save most of it, Nintendo isn't a huge company like sony or microsoft. They can't rely on other different departments to make money.

Just save and get ready for next gen.

 They need to buy out SCE.

Yep...

Seriously though, buying some other game developers would help them out a lot.

Some of it will be paid to shareholders in dividends for sure.
I would like to see them invest in a few more dev companies, or start a few new ones. They are really not a balanced company, they need to consildate all of the RPG type games into one company, and like so with other genres. The games would be better if each dev specialized in what they like most. I have always thought a Nintendo themed, theme park would be cool : ). So many charaters, so much history, it could be better than Disney World(especially for a gamer)... We'll see... They should at least License themselves to a theme park... I can think of a few good ones that don't have really any concrete theme to them. CederPoint(the best one in the Whole world), KennyWood(needs a new name anyways), Busch Gardens(come on they can only have so many beer rides, lol) I am sure there are some in Japan and Europe too...



psn- tokila

add me, the more the merrier.

Invest in future technologies like holographic displays and hand controlled gaming systems
