Nintendo is dead. Options

[P.P.A.]

I just watched the live stream of Nintendo's press conference. They announced ONE new real game, that being the highly predictable Animal Crossing for Wii (coming with a microphone, "Wii Speak"). Other than that, casual shit as far as the eye can see. Wii Sports Resort bundled with the WIi Motion Plus); a Wii balance board snowboarding game; Wii Music, where you randomly press buttons or waggle around to make music play, GTA CHina Town for DS, which was brielfy mentioned and then ignored again; a Star Wars Clone Wars (the cartoon) comnversion, another Raving Rabbids game, a CoD and Pokémon Rangers 2.

That's it, I'm getting a PS3 this Christmas. Fuck you, post-Wii Nintendo. Fuck you.

Here are the reasons why nintendo will continue to make money

1) they're trying to draw in a new audience and if you want to do that you wont Throw a hardcore game at them you would start off casual and worrk your way up

2) Cheaper Games + Little Kids= More Sales

3) With more parents playing games like Wii Fit the wii is almost the easiest thing to do next to dying, but its also complex in its own way

So the PS3 is great too (i want one, but i'm having problems convincing my parents to buy me one)
but its too expensive to utilize it to the fullest of its abillities (which is currrently 80gigs) is gonna cost $500.00+ and games are $60 and a second controller is at least $30 together thats almost $600.00 and that price is what puts off a lot of people, while the wii sits at $250.00 and it already comes with a game plus another Wiimote+Nunchuck (bundled together) $20 which collectively comes to $270.00

Now how much would you rather spend:

$600
or
$270

Pokemon.

Thats one of the biggest, if not THE biggest Nintendo franchise. The only other obvious giant of Nintendo is Mario games.
