- Nintendo is doomed

1995
https://www.instagram.com/p/BLH1NwwjbxQ/ 2004 I've said this many times before, but I see two potentials for Nintendo: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=19802 Nix: PSP. With the Nintendo DS, I can smell something good in the kitchen, but with the PlayStation Portable, I can taste it. This is the portable system that gamers have been waiting all along for, ever since the PlayStation burst on the scene and pushed the business to where it is now. The console biz is reaching a saturation point, and PSP would be a great overflow for talented works to get their due. DS will be quite cool and quite different, but Nintendo's approach just doesn't seem to have the oomph to push it gamers to it, whereas Sony is sitting at the wheel of a bulldozer. As long as they don't grind their gears out... http://ign.com/articles/2004/08/07/nintendo-ds-vs-psp-round-2?page=7 2011 For better or for worse, Vita will be pitted against the Nintendo 3DS. But the comparison doesn't make a whole lot of sense, and even if you were to pit them against each other, Vita is still destined to sell better. That's because in addition to games (which Nintendo 3DS is still sorely lacking), it's also a much more powerful machine capable of doing a whole lot more than 3DS. http://ign.com/articles/2011/10/22/the-playstation-vita-is-set-to-succeed Doomed!

Nintendo's long game is strong af. I'm convinced they'll outlast both Sony and MS, at least assuming they all continue to follow the same course.
Do unto others what your parents did to you.

The comment about Nintendo having a future like Apple is hilarious on both levels.

Nintendo is doomed about as much as any other video game company is doomed.

The comment about Nintendo having a future like Apple is hilarious on both levels. Except that's pretty much what happened to Nintendo. They're considered something of a lifestyle in the vein Apple is. Just take a look at Nintendo's products almost any time something comes out, there's always a huge line and product sells out instantly. Artificial shortages or not.

That comment was before Apple became huge and were that quirky, niche side company that made ads with Justin Long dissing PC. He incorrectly predicted the future of both Apple and Nintendo thanks to that comparison.

Will the Revolution be the successor to the Gamecube?
Will the Nintendo Revolution be the GameCube successor after all, or not? well I think GameCube will be around until 2008 so it will have to co-exist with Revolution for a few years. lol. Man history really does repeat.

Nintendo's last Doom game was Doom 64. LOL

Nintendo shouldn't have made enemies with SquareSoft back in the day. I'm telling you.

Nintendo fails to get its act together. Controllers are the worst I've ever seen

I forgot people thought the GBA would stick around longer and also have a successor that wasn't the DS.

It's amusing how literally people take Nintendo's statements of "this is not a successor to this system"
I think in Nintendo's world it's only a successor if it's something like the Super Nintendo, Wii U or 3DS. Otherwise it's just a new platform. Even though by any other metric it is a successor.

Apple hasn't had significant growths in a while. As much as I don't like iOS being an Android developer =_=, I still have to give it a lot of credit for paving a lot of new ways to live, just as much as Nintendo paved new ways to play games, despite how much people hate new ways to play. But Nintendo I think maintained innovation, and now they're getting really good sales and retained much of their fans where Apple became utterly dominated by Google in terms of innovation.

Oh, crap. I thought he said 1989.
<_< |

I wonder if there's some old timey Japanese news article about Nintendo's love hotels and cards being the end of Nintendo.

Honestly, I think that's the closest Nintendo came to actually being doomed, because it was just one failed venture after another. They're lucky that someone there decided to focus on video games. |

I'm still trying to find a Switch, but I decided to wait till Mario came out to see how good that will be.

THIS IS WHAT I HATE A BOUT EVREY WEBSITE!! THERES SO MUCH PEOPLE READING AND POSTING STUIPED STUFF

The comment about the NES controller being terrible because it doesn't have a joystick is so damn Nintendo. It's funny that people point to their older stuff as examples as to how Nintendo has changed. When really it's them being exactly the same.

Craig: DS.You know, I don't play handhelds to get the console experience on the go. I play them to get an experience I don't get on the consoles...and it seems to me that all the PSP is going to do is offer up some PS2 quality games in a handheld. I want something significantly different in my gaming, and that's why I'm totally stoked for the Nintendo DS system. Bring on the dual-screen, touchscreen gaming. This guy nailed it. The other 4 though... smh.

I want something significantly different in my gaming, and that's why I'm totally stoked for the Nintendo DS system. Bring on the dual-screen, touchscreen gaming. The biggest flaw with the PSP was that it didn't really offer a lot of stuff that was PS2 level anyway. Sony can never dedicate their A-teams to their handhelds. They were always B level spin-offs. That's why a Sony handheld/accessory spin-off will never take off. PSP did a better job than the Vita with this though,

It's insane how terribly Sony handled their handhelds.
|

We can see how Nintendo struggles to even support two platforms at a time with the Wii U and now the Switch. Can you imagine if they actually had five at one point?
|
|
I'm convinced that the Vita will go down as Sony's biggest failure of all time, as historically significant as Nintendo cancelling the Nintendo Playstation or losing Squaresoft. They had a chance to build off of the PSP's success and maybe eventually become the #1 handheld company but they blew it. It was like getting an RPG boss down to 2 HP and then waiting for it to do a full restore instead of going in for the kill.

God damn Nintendo and their artificial shortages!
Quick now: What does the Nintendo Entertainment System have in common with Judge Crater, Amelia Earhart and Jimmy Hoffa? Answer: They all mysteriously disappeared at the height of their fame, and no one can find them to this day. http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1989-03-31/entertainment/8903310356_1_game-cartridges-nintendo-mania-zelda-ii
