I feel sorry for the big N. I mean I had the NES, Gameboy, SNES, N64 & the Gamecube. Those systems gave me great memories, but the competition is fierce, not only with Xbox & Playstation but also mobile phone games too.

Nintendo gotta pick up somehow...

I am one in saying that Super Mario Sunshine 2 would bring a huge hit back in the industry of gaming for Nintendo. The release of MK8 and Super Smash Bros. will not be enough.

They need to stop being so lazy. C'mon Nintendo. Pull through dammit!

The gaming population's shifting for worse.

There's more demand for fifteen-minute-games and hyper-graphical online competitive games.

Game of the Year 2020: Candy Crush Saga Online UD edition. Featuring individual pieces of candy each with a unique appearance. Play against the world in live competition~

If Nintendo drops down in the hardware market, I'd like to see which console will fight the most to see Nintendo's titles.



Although.. a piece of my mind here. If Sega was to focus on pushing games with the Wii U for a while, and work with Nintendo exclusively.. I think there could be quite a turn-around.

Doesn't the Wii U have backward compatibility? I remember them being such a powerhouse in the 1980's, it'll be heartbreaking to see Nintendo selling their company. :(

My first Nintendo console was the SNES in 1994, just months before PlayStation and Saturn came out :P Before then, I was Sega all the way (sadly, I no longer have my Saturn :P) I'd really hate to see Nintendo go the way of Sega :(

Wii U is backwards compatible with the Wii library.

That reminds me.. I don't think they should have tried releasing that Wii Mini model. That was probably a bad idea to be honest.

Remember a computer company called Commodore? They released dozens of incompatible 8-bit and Amiga models back in the 1980s and early 1990s, leading to their demise in 1993 ;) I just hope Nintendo isn't going down this path... (I wonder how many people buy 360 games thinking they work on Xbox One or vice versa? I know sometimes I've seen people try 360 games on a PC or a Windows game on an 360, etc.)

I agree.

Nintendo making Mario's Mobile LOLAdventures? Fuck no. I don't think Nintendo should go into the mobile market. They belong more as a first party developer and publisher, really.

I don't think Nintendo will ever vanish. Remember they also make many many other things in Japan like hanafuna/poker cars, mahjong sets, and more.

They may have to move on to software only in the future, but they have at least one more fiscal year before it's a big problem. We'll see how well SSB sells... (I am getting a Wii U just for that so I bet more are the same way.)

Didn't people say Nintendo will go out of business in 1990-1991? And look, Nintendo is here over twenty years later.

If Nintendo will have to unforttunately make software only, I would prefer it on other consoles and PCs rather than on mobile devices.

Most mobile games seem to just be, how do I say it... "toned down" compared to console or PC games.

I don't think they'll go out of business anytime soon. Worst case, they'll become a third-party company like Sega did. Mario, Zelda, and Kirby aren't going away.

The PS4 is selling better than the XBone and the Wii U is selling the least.

Along with Super Mario Sunshine 2; a new Zelda, Metroid, and F-Zero could save the Wii U.

The last Metroid game didn't do so hot, as far I remember.

There is a shortage of RPG games, or even games with RPG elements on the WiiU though.

Interesting how Nintendo owned last generation, but are coming in last this time around.

Yeah, the U needs new entries in Nintendo's well-known franchises to sell systems. Seems to me, the 3DS started to really take off after A Link Between Worlds was released.

Other M didn't, which is why a new one should be improved upon.

Didn't the 3DS start to sell well in late 2011?

Wii U sales increased massivly with the release of Mario Kart 8. Curious how a new Smash Bros would affect sales too.

Wii U have been "too few games to be worth it" but now that's starting to slowly change. I'm not intrested in getting other consoles, cuz their titles are usually on PC and plays better on PC. ;)

So Mario Kart 8 did boost Wii U sales. Maybe a Super Mario Sunshine 2 could do the same? Perhaps. I want a Super Mario Sunshine 2 very badly.

Don't forget about Super Smash Bros. 4, that new Sonic game, Xenoblade 2, Zelda 2015, etc. :D Seems like Wii U is finally starting to take off

Still, even if its 'game over' for nintendo, their first party titles would be a niche that will still keep them afloat.

My thoughts exactly. I always say this to people who questions me why do I have a wii (and in the future, a wii u) instead of a ps3/4/Xbone/360
