I don't hate Nintendo but I certainly don't think they are relevant anymore in the hardware business. There should be one unified hardware business like Blu-ray and all games should be accessible on it. I don't like exclusivity.

I voted yes.

The last time there was only one prominent, 'unified hardware' it sorta led to the video game crash of 1983.

There needs to be competition. A monopoly doesn't work. Competition ensures these companies actually have an incentive to deliever good and improved products. I don't like exclusivity either, but its necessary.

Im thinking more like the proliferation of Blu-ray players. Rather than a single manufacturer. 

Fair enough. But wasn't the original question whether you 'hated them and wanted them to go bankrupt'? Wanting them to go third party in a way doesn't really fit into that...

I wish they would stop using the same old brands.


They don't. There was a thread some time ago, naming >70 franchises Nintendo has made in the last 15 years, some as recent being 2010 or after.

The only truly rehashed franchises are Mario and Pokémon.



i don´t hate them, i just hate that they try to sell outdated hardware and defend region lock



Many here wish that!

Anyone who does want them bankrupt is a dumbass. Nintendo revived gaming in North America. The Playstation or Xbox wouldn't exist if Nintendo didn't release a console. Especially Playstation because the reason they made the console was to get back at Nintendo.


No, they were going to enter the market with or without nintendo.

I'm glad the partnership never worked out otherwise we would never hear the end of how playstation only exists because of nintendo.

well its true it is mostly because of Nintendo. Nintendo asked sony to help them on the Playstation and then  Nintendo back stabbed Sony and Sony went to go make a console on their own. They weren't intrested on entering the market until Nintendo asked them to help. I'm not making this up this is fact.



No.



Why would anyone want Nintendo (Of all companies) to go bankrupt? Definitive no, for me.



Not bankrupt, but either get their act together and create better hardware, or go 3rd party.
