We have a fortune teller here. Can i burrow your chrystal ball?

@gugerface
Nintendo has won 3 of the last 5 home console generations and ALL handheld console generations. So much for 15 minutes of fame...

Armchair analysts always think they know whats better for a company.

You're just suggesting they should've made hardcore gaming console and assume they would not only be better off but win the whole "next gen warz" rolf

"I think the tablet controller maybe could've been an optional accessorie bundled with Nintendo Land for $99.99 or something"

lolol fragment the user base and render the tablet nothing more than an exppensive accessory no dev will utilize

So why aren't you whining about the op? He seems to have a crystal ball also, yet I don't see you asking him about it?

@Gugerface
Unlike you the OP makes actual points instead of flaming. Speaking of which...reported.

Is this thread about handhelds? No. I do understand that you felt it was necessary to bring up something which could potentially back up your point, which was something in lines of "Nintendo has not won a gen since SNES which they released in 1990". That is really solid. How long ago was that? 23 years? Nooo, can't be.

For what? Not loving your precious nintendo? Quick, red alert! Report! Report!

He was not making an absolute statement. 

@gugerface So you really would try to argue the Wii did in fact NOT win this gen? With most HW and SW sold as well as being the only one of the big three to actually make a profit off their gaming department? Talk about being delusional...

Which would be the 15 minutes of the fame. Right?

Ah, I just have to say this since you seem so sure about your facts. Wii might not end up the best selling console when it is all said and done. I am sure Wii will not end up with the most software sold. Also, you don't know about Microsoft profits/losses. If you claim that you do, please provide concrete numbers about 360. Which is not the same as EDD.
