Title: Should Nintendo dissolve sell their first parties and franchises or not?
Post by: Damian79 on June 21, 2011, 12:27:39 AM
I dunno, i think they should, their business model is too archaic.

*Sony sells their Vita that is a generation ahead at the same battery life as the 3ds at the same price.  What a fuck up.

*They are seriously disadvantaging their developers with their shit consoles.

*They could easily make their money back with low cost consoles with their first party software but they dont, they simply refuse to.

*I really doubt that nintendo would even try to go cloud gaming, so they will be in continuos decline.


They should sell while they are worth something.

What does hat pic mean?

Does it mean "this is in question?" or "You are joking right?"?

The lower left part of that GIF made me think there was a speck of dirt on my monitor and I tried to wipe it off.  :(

They can take their franchises with them for all I care.

Nintendo has more than enough money on-hand to weather this generation and the coming generation even if they drop to third place and actually start losing money. They'd eventually have to turn things around, but a massive drop-off in sales and profits might be incentive enough to do make a stab at that.

Err...I mean, Nintendo sucks!

Yes, let's have Nintendo do-away with those lucrative and burdensome legacy IPs, and then place the company's fate at the tender mercy of third party developers whom, historically, have done such a wonderful job in the past of supporting Nintendo's consoles with such a steady influx of equally polished and entertaining titles. Your brain, sir, is a goldmine of sound and potentially groundbreaking business ideas.

Who are you talking to?  I was talking about Nintendo going out of the business.

If they left the hardware game but kept their IPs I'd be cool with that. Like Sega. It's kinda annoying having to get a piece of hardware just to play one devs games. Don't really care too much either way though.
