Playstation said the same thing about the PS4 ''capturing the Wii market''. So I wouldn't think too hard on this really

I don't think they're making a phone, but it wouldn't surprise me if NX ships with a controller that basically can run Android on its own.
A mobile chip akin to something that's in the Galaxy S5 or iPhone 5 would be dirt, dirt cheap today and run tons of apps, if they're going to have a screen on the controller anyway (like that free-form patent), they could easily put one of those into the controller, and now suddenly you have a functioning Android tablet basically. Nintendo could still have their own custom OS though, it would just be a customized propietary version of Android.
Then you could have it ship with a cheap console and probably still have room left over for another type of gimmick (second controller).

Microsoft shows what is coming out this year, mostly. They will show a couple of games for next year, but that will be more focused on at Gamescom. Sony just likes announcing games 2-3 years before launch, well The Last Guardian was upwards of 7 years, but I think you understand what I am saying. While getting new announcements is good, when they are so far away it is making people know that there is so-and-so game and not having any clue when it will be release. What is the point in announcing a game? I just never understood this marketing tactic. I mean Microsoft has attempted this but sadly games like Fable and Phantom Dust have been canceled. Each company is marketing different. Microsoft's E3 is showing games that are coming out this year, while Sony is announcements for games coming out in a couple of years. The one thing I wish Sony would do is talk about their ecosystem and what they are going to try to improve with their interface or by adding more features. I think Microsoft does an amazing job at console support by improving the console every year and adding new useful features that gamers can take advantage of. |
Okay, there's something wrong here. I keep hitting quote and this one is popping up with the quote I'm trying to quote. I've tried logging in and out and restarting my browser....

If they had launched it a year earlier with less of a kid design and games like Perfect Dark and Zelda: Majora's Mask as re-purposed launch titles .... they probably would've had a fairly comfortable no.2 finish of 35-50 million consoles IMO. They gave Sony way too much time to build a massive lead and took Microsoft too lightly and also I think Miyamoto's crew over NCL rebelled against NOA who at the time was carrying Nintendo in some respects with things like GoldenEye/Perfect Dark, Nintendo Sports, Star Wars cross-marketing, etc. I think they wanted to reassert themselves and purposely made the GameCube look overly kid-like but in doing so sabotaged the machine's success for their own egos. |
Exactly, to act like the reason Nintendo suffered in sales was because they offered a traditional console (which it wasn't) is disingenuous.
if that's true then RIP IN PEACE NX

The problem is now though with the failure of the GameCube, that cemented Microsoft into the business, which was a huge blunder on Nintendo's part. They needed to hit MS so hard in the face that generation that they tucked tail and left the business.
But now with Sony AND Microsoft embedded in the business both making core consoles, there is no space left for Nintendo.
They needed to get the GameCube right and they didn't, and now they basically fucked themselves out of the traditional console market. So they kinda in a way don't have a choice anymore but to focus on gimmicky consoles. This is the result of their terrible decision making with the N64 and GameCube, these are the consequences, you can say the legacy of those two generations still haunts Nintendo to this day.

It makes sense.
It's sad that Microsoft just announced a new console and we've got more info about it than we got about NX.
God bless You.
My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+
When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019

Mess, there are dozens of variables which determine a consoles success. Its never a case of X failed because it was traditional/not traditional. Its more a case of well thought out and executed versus ill thought out and/or poorly executed.

Nope, had nothing to do with the terrible advertising and huge droughts of games, it was the price and the controller (lol). |
Did you see the word ''main''?
Of course these are other problems of the wii u but not the MAIN for me? Understand?
