At last, someone who knows what they're talking about.

Don't Play Stationary 4 ever. Switch!

Doubt it. I'm predicting to see it do similar to the 3DS. At first not many people interested, but then after a year or two with a price drop, and a influx of games i can see it to start selling like hot cakes.

His expectations are too high tbh. I'm hoping for at least half of that.

For real, though. I admire his boldness, but I'd expect even half of that (maybe even 1/3) could be considered a success. Especially after Wii U. 



It'll be awhile before I figure out how to do one of these. :P 

He must have meant Wii-U.

We'll see.


Can never be too sure although I really don't see it happening, though I would love to see it!

Far out that's... bold

It's also unsurprising. They literally said they wanted NX to bring in "Wii-like profits" years ago. Of course they're going to make a console with the aspirations of their biggest success. Why would anyone expect a multi-billion dollar company with some of the most valuable IP in the world to intentionally design a product meant for mediocre success?



Um...no.



Ah now I remember why I came back to this site. Same reason I came here in 2006.. Going to be entertaining to see so many proven wrong yet again :P
