Considering where you stand on this debate, why the heck did you revive this thread? >.<

Lol, I kept this page bookmarked for the laughs when I read this today. There are people online that I know that kept pages talking about this topic bookmarked so they can laugh at all of the 'stupidity' and say, "I told you so, but you didn't listen" to their friends.

Back to topic. I think the general consensus is that if Nintendo plays their cards right with the Wii U and 3DS, Nintendo will be printing money again. If one system fails, they'll be in a deep hole, but they'll climb out. If they both fail, then I'll be worried, as they'll go the same path as SEGA did. You know, with those horrid SEGA CD, 32X, Saturn, SEGA Channel, Dreamcast failures, so SEGA couldn't take the pressure anymore, which was (and still is) a shame.

Games I'm getting: The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD

Favorite Game: Super Metroid (SNES) / Mother 2 (SNES) / RuneScape (PC)
Playing: Sonic 3K

Nothing interesting happens.
DESTROY THEM ALL!!

Nintendo has already fallen. Go buy a PS3 or 360 before you fall with them!

as the 3ds just sold over 400,000 units the week before christmas alone i highly doubt theyve failed.

EDIT: in japan alone. no sales data available for other territories that i've seen.

Nintendo has not fallen, they just need to stop ignoring trends and start being ahead of the game or at least up to par with the game.

What did Zelda do that was so epic on the NES?

You do realize between the Fund from the former president and The Assests they own they have enough capital to survive three PS3 size losses right.

...wut about Ms. Pac-Man???? :)

Ms Pac-man only has a bow to distinguish her from pac-man. Samus has no male counterpart. 'nuff said

I can't believe this thread is still alive. I guess people just love to talk about doom and gloom.

The popularity of Nostradamus might have something to do with it. Or the Mayans. Or the fact 99% of humans are ruled by fear and think crazy stuff up. Look at Y2K, for example, or the Cold War. However, this fundamental aspect of human nature facilitates interesting stories, and the entertaining quasi-troll forum topics that are my main source of entertainment on the internet.

Wow...people...stop being "emo" or emotional, and start thinking a little bit for a change.

It´s true that big companies like Sega, Atari, Commodore, Sinclair, and so on, have got into troubles and disappeared after some time fighting against new bigger and better companies, and some are the ones today leading the industry.

Nowadays the gaming industry and the markets are consolidated and healthy. It´s another kind of management and thinking.

No, i don´t believe that big companies like Nintendo will die soon. They are smarter, healthier, and wealthier than that. :-)

I admit i´m not a huge fan of Nintendo..Yes i prefer the most all of those action/fps/shooter/sports games dedicated to other platforms like Psp and Xbox than the somewhat childish games that Nintendo launch and are bought by millions of people, don´t know why..

In my opinion Nintendo it´s always in third place and it will be like that forever, besides the fact it´s number one in some sell charts around internet.

No, it´s not the end of Nintendo, the arrival of Playstation Vita. It´s just a new beginning for everyone in the gaming industry.

Adapt and overcome :-)

» Sorry for my bad english. Hope you understand. I´m Portuguese, living in Portugal :-)

In Portugal we are tired of living in crisis. It´s been here forever and we´re still here, alive and well, so when someone says big companies like Nintendo will fall and end i just prefer to wait and see what the future will bring. :-)

I remind that i´m not a huge fan of Nintendo and that i rather prefer other plattforms, but Nintendo besides beying a little childish really delivers a different experience worth trying. :-)
