Damn selling far worse than Dreamcast. :bryan:It least they have money.
there was basically no point in putting the Wii U out last year. it could have been released this holiday season because the sales up till then probably aren't gonna break 4.3 million. i mean its August and they've sold 3.67 million worldwide and of that 3.06 million were sold in Q4 2012 basically their launch sales.

I hope nintendo becomes the new sega
Why so they can quietly fade into obscurity like Sega has? really what has Sega done since going third party that's even of note? what respectable popular franchises do they even have left? Sega going third party was the beginning of the end for them. they were better when they put out consoles.

Hold thee fukk up :stop:

You are a Nintendo fanboy. You got every system? So do I :ufdup: And I had every system before then to, so I'm way more qualified than even your punk ass when it comes to diversity in gaming. I rock a Kinect too, still, til this day. Now because I prefer to have a stable online environment does not make me a fanboy. A fanboy would ignore a shytty online environment (ps3 fanboy) Its not stanning if its just better. Even multiplat games were better on xbox for the majority of this gen.

Now, none of that has a thing to do with what I thought would happen with Nintendo. What I said is from my observation of the industry and how things were going.
I can't stan my way into saying The PS3 would cost $600 at launch. I can't stan my way into thinking the PS3 would launch in fall 2006 instead of Fall 2005 or spring 2006 like sony was telling everyone.

Nintendo, we all know the Wii was a gimmick. Every single gamer around says they stopped using it. Games would not sell, 3rd parties stopped making games for it. You didn't observe all that, you just looked at the sales of the system while ignoring the world saying they didn't really use there systems.
Somehow, you felt that nintendo trying to come weak again would somehow be successful, why? Cuz maybe you was a ghat damn dumbass stan?
Maybe you wasn't stanning, maybe you was just being a dumbass? You wasn't the only person who saw the Wii sales and was like "Welp, it'll happen again" just like you wasn't the only person who seen the inflated PS2 numbers and couldnt imagine Xbox winning this gen. But the Xbox was a billion times better than the PS2, its not even close. Thats how I came to my conclusion for this gen, and I see how this gen will affect next gen. Next gen, Microsoft will expand on everything it did right.
Sony, they stopped being innovative during the PS2 era. They just copy, and since nobody knows a ghat damn thing about the PS4? Don't expect much

Not stanning, thats what the fukk it really iz. Now give me my ghat damn props bytch :birdman:

This is their fault they did not learn from 3DS when you launch a system you launch it with multiple 1st party games. It should see revenue when pokemon and mario kart come out in November.

That shyt wouldn't have mattered because nobody is buying a $350 Wii-U for Mario Kart or Pokemon
Nintendo hasn't developed a new franchise in who knows how long. Miyamoto is actually creating a new game right now, but its too little too late
Nintendo needed someone else to make games for them besides Miyamoto, nobody has really been all that good.
Last new innovative gaming that came from Nintendo was RARE WARE actually. What has Nintendo made themselves since Mario64 that you'd call a system seller?
I'm talking 1st party here. If you have to think about the answer? Then you see my point.

In the beginning of last generation when the PS3 was flopping hard I came out in Dec 06 when i bought mine and said the PS3 will outsell the 360 worldwide when this generation was done. You were one of the main people laughing at me saying no. Where are my props for saying that in the face of the ps3 being $600 and selling like shyt at the time?

NY all day..Da Stead & BK..
Me too, Bring their DS games to android/iOS The bigger games to X1/PS4 :win:
I'm honestly not a fan of phones n shyt replacing dedicated gaming handhelds...phones should be reserved to playing simple shyt like temple run and angry birds imo,..so they should continue making handhelds and make the big titles for multiplat...

3 things.

1.) You still haven't given me my damn props :birdman:

2..) You are wrong about PS3. You are taking sony's word for it, while ignoring ever real fact like sony reports shipped. They shipped more and that isn't even true.
They stopped making PS2's in Jan.2013 but been counting PS2 & 3 systems as PS3 systems sold since 2009 I think it is.
Once again, sony counts systems shipped as sold. They "shipped PS2's all across the world until jan of 2013" so you tell me how many PS2's are in that equation? Supporedly PS3 is up by like 100,000 systems. You trying to say they only shipped 99,999 PS2 in 3/4yrs so the PS3 is still up by 1 system sold? If thats not the case, you tell me how many PS2 are counted in that equation. So once again, WRONG!

3.) You saying the PS3 would outsell the Xbox back in 2006 doesn't deserve props. Thats not a bold prediction since the PS2 just came off being the highest selling system of all time. You saying they will continue wasn't something not expected by the masses. What I saw and IS CORRECT STILL on deserves props. Which I already received over the years. Especially predicting a year later and the price right on the money :whew: So give up them good props or the bad Karma "could" lead to one of your systems dying mysteriously :manny:

You coli cats are way too quick to throw dirt on the Nintendo's grave. 1st off they can flop a few times in a row and still have money, that's not the issue. They clearly came out half baked this new generation, no excuse for that but their best games are starting to come out. Both Animal Crossing and Pikmin 3 will be system sellers. Furthermore, they did a considerable price drop on the system. The Wii-U was never really meant to have a long shelf life based on Nintendo's strategy. Don't get me wrong the Wii-U will be a failure compared to the Wii, but their success with the 3DS is balancing them out as it currently stands. Let's not compare Nintendo to where Sega was in the Dreamcast days, the situation is not even close.

3DS had a false start as well, but right now it's dropping pure crack seemingly week after week.

To me it's weird they fukked up the Wii U launch as bad as the 3DS launch but if they can recover from it the same way they did with the 3DS... :whew:
