Yes, it has begun. I expect nintendo to become a software company by 2014. You watch.

You are wrong, Nintendo is going to announced at E3 that they will become a software company, that's going to be surprise no one expected. 


Yes, they will announce that at E3 but still, it will take sometime to make the transition and decide what platforms to support. Hence why I chose 2014 to be the year nintendo become a software only company.

Sure looks doomed in Europe. Everywhere else seems fined for now.

what makes you think nintendo is going to become a software company cause in case if you don't know what made sega a software company is that they lost a lot of money cause they killed both the saturn and dreamcast just 2 years into their life

Is Sony and MS make it impossible to play used games, I'll be joining the Wii U crowd in around 1-2 years away from now when the PS3 will die off and games on it become inferior to Wii U titles. If they aren't that stupid, I'll just wait till Wii U drops in price to 199. The console is not doomed. People will always want to play Mario, Zelda, Metroid or Pokemon. It will be a Gamecube 2. Profitable for Nintendo, but doesn't stand a chance at winning the next gen.

Nah, not a Gamecube 2. I think once the PS4 and Nextbox are release by 2014, it will be a neck and neck, very strategic race into 2015. I don't think any console would find it overly easy selling 2014 onwards, but also certainly none will perform as bad as Gamecube.

It is doomed. it might get lucky and sell well enough to make Nintendo some money (as usual).

However, it is doomed to not get the good multiplats. It's not getting even most PS360 ports, it wont get PS4/Xbox3 games.

Nintendo consoles might survive well, but Sony and MS get the best games.
