sometimes its nice to go back to old threads and see just how wrong some us were. i think most of us have made poor predictions in the past (i for example had wayyyyyyy too high predictions for punchout) its nice that we can laugh about it later. here are 2 thread which are pretty funny when viewed with hindsight. if anyone has any other thread like these feel free to post them

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

Meh, these are pretty retarded but no one could have predicted Wii Fit would do what its done.

 

Edit: Punctuation fail.

nintendo predicted it apparently.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Not really if you recall how supply constrained it was for the longest time.
