It'd be rad. No more shitty gimmicky consoles and everyone gets to play their games. Everyone wins except Nintendo, but it's not like they're used to winning anyway.

How about winning gen 1, 3, 4, and 7 in home console sales?  If you add 3DS + Wii U together they are on top this gen as well (which it looks like the PS4 will eventually pass them by in total sales in a year or so).  They are almost always on top if you add home console and hand held sales together (except gen 5, 6 and soon to be 8).

Winning gen 1, 3, 4, and 7 in home console sales

Winning gen 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 in hand held sales (no one to my knowledge had a gen 3 hand held unless you want to count the Tiger Electronics hand helds which wiki doesn't, Nintendo has never lost in sales for any hand held generation)

Yep, they aren't used to winning.  You might want to have some facts next time.

Sarcasm?Really?Where?Was it in the part that you doubt that Playstation or Microsoft games could go third party?Because Im pretty sure it wasnt when you were talking about Nintendo, because anyone can see that

Read the comments again then you won't look dumb.

Funny that you deleted the "duh!" at the end of my sentence in a feeble attempt to make me somehow look silly and making my sentence look "serious".And dont worry, I dont feel or look dumb.Actually I think Im providing quite the entertainment for me and people who are reading these comments in where you try to get under my skin and fails miserably!

Not to mention that you answer my arguments with insults.Way to fail miserably in an argument lol.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Just buy the damn nintendo consoles if you want to play Nintendo games....cheap bastards.

I like this post.



Nintendo will continue to put out shallow, half-hearted mobile apps to generate revenue for their console and handheld divisions. Think of them as fast food. Pokemon Go is a Quarter Pounder and Sun/Moon are their $70.00, prime steak. Their mobile apps are designed to create brand recognition, not redefine their entire focus.

Mobile games are too shallow to go full 24/7. Pokemon Go will be dead in the west by fall, easily. It's already declining. They're not stupid and they know casuals well after the whole Wii implosion and mass exodus. They know core gaming is where the loyalty is. They're not abandoning long term viability for short term windfalls.

Welp, can't argue with that, although I don't think we mean "winning" in the same way, but whatever.



I'm now filled with determination.

They're going mobile but that has no dent on them continuing to release traditional games on a dedicated console/handheld.

They're not going multiplatform anytime soon, they've literally just invested hundred of millions into a new platform called NX



I'm not sure what you mean by going "Mobile" you mean exclusively?!?!? I mean they already announced the NX so.... I have faith in the NX.

At least he/she/it responded to you to provide the entertainment.  I didn't even get that from them!
