ok then Wheres Nintendos anwser to 

Killzone/Halo

GranTurismo/Forza

God of war/NGs/Heavenly/DevilMayCry

Nowhere, you hear me? It's nowhere! That is not Nintendo's core, never was. Third parties can answer that, and they have with the likes of RE, and thanks to the userbase Nintendo built, they will sell. Nintendo doesn't make those kinds of games, why should they!? To suffocate third parties more (that's a common argument)?

And were's Sony's answer to Brawl, or Kart? You think any Sony platformer stands a chance to be as successful as Galaxy?

Why is everyone so threatened by Nintendo? Fine, if you think they are stupid, unimaginative, lazy that's okay, so be it. Everyone just play whatever games makes you happy. Don't even worry about the guy next to you. No one pay any attention to Nintendo. They will disappear in a couple of months because according to some of the logic here, they aren't pleasing anyone. They don't understand the business of video games. And reaching out to untapped markets. pfft. As if that will ever work. Look at the DS, it's a fad. It won't last another 6 months cause it has no games. NO ONE PLAYS THE DS! Games aren't about fun. They are meant to look good. You are meant to feel cool when playing video games. When girls come over, they should be dazzled by the graphics and the amount of characters running around on the screen. No one pay any attention to the Wii. It will go away in a couple more months. You won't have to ever see it again.

Don't forget that Nintendo dares to make profits from videogames. That's dirty business.


As if. Nintendo doesn't know how to make profits at all. They are losing billions right now as we speak. They have no business sense at all. Their stock is dropping faster than a fat man on smarties. Don't even pay any attention to the Wii. It won't last another couple of months. All the Sony and Microsoft fans are right. They are digging their own coffin. It's teh doom for Nintendo.

But you can't shoot people in the face in a platformer.

 edit: Alrigt, I'll lay off shooters for a while. It's just the abundance of them shown at E3 irritated me.



Current systems owned: Wii, 360. I'll get a PS3 when hell freezes over!... or when the price drops to a reasonable level. Whichever comes first.

That is correct. We need more face shooting.

It's been interesting to see the PS3/360 argument against the Wii evolve over time, as the Wii's popularity has continued, relentlessly, to railroad everything in its path.

Pre-November 2006: "The PS3 will dominate. The Wii may be Nintendo's last console. They had a good run."

January: "The Wii is doing well right now, but it's just a fad. This will be over by March."

March: "Okay, the Wii is still selling, but where are the games? There are no games coming out for it."

June: "Okay, there are lots of games coming now, but where are the games I like? I don't see anything I want."

July: "God, I hate Nintendo."

No, Stoppable, you just don't understand. The heathens are making profits on the CONSOLES! It's madness!

Well, actually you can... if it's a Sony one. But you're right, that I know of, not on a Nintendo one.

Shocking, isn't it!?

Hmm I wonder if I can make some money this Christmas selling Wii's. They are a guaranteed sellout this Christmas. I should be able to get at least 1.5 their retail price this holiday season by reselling it. Sounds like a plan. Now I just have to find me some Wii's.... DOH!

It's easier just to buy Nintendo stock if you're that confident.
