Yeah until they all go bankrupt for spending 100+ millions for a game


didn't people said the same thing at the beginning of this gen


Yes. And since then, we've lost half of THQ, Hudson, Midway, Eidos, 38 Studios, and various developers. Meanwhile, companies like EA and Sony have been losing money for a while, and the only sucess stories you hear about nowadays come from indie devs and the Activision Blizzard empire.

plenty of studios went brankcurpt during the ps2 era also, it's not as doom and gloomed like the wii fans were pretending at the beginning of this gen, there was also companies that went under after their game failed on the wii and with PSN and xbox live small developers can get a huge success with relatively cheap games



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

He is right Pavolink. At this point I wouldn't even know which way round to hold the WiiU tablet. 

I don't know why Kojima would say that, anyway he's a shadow of his former self now so oh well. 

Oh! You were serious. hmmm... well



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Honestly.
How could they be much more excited when even the name hasn't been officially released?! I mean, Come on!!

How? 

Because the Wii U HAS been revealed. And it looks pathetic. That's why.

  if Nintendo can get gamers to purchase big 3rd party games right off the bat...

For example: Batman: Arkham City, and Mass Effect 3!

srsly? Have you taken a look around recently?



Publishers are more excited about PS4/Xbox3 because they will be able to sell stuff on it, that's all.

we shall see next E3....



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

Woooow

So Wii U is patethic and don't sell 3rd party stuff. Future is dark for Nintendo, it seems.

Because potentially they are a lot more promising, in the views of publishers apparantly. 



They both have NO name.. both a year off.. Publishers are readying games for the next gen Nintendo Launch.. and they arnt excited about it... hmmm
