Nintendo, will in the end, become a software development company.

Which is fine with me... its ALWAYS where they have exceled in.

Their 'hardware' decisions are LEDENDARY for bing 'one step behind'....

As long as they still exist, I'm happy.

Nintendo has been known for making mistakes and being totally stubborn. I mean, c'mon, no online play? Stupid.

*Thankfully* this new console of theirs is supposed to have free WiFi capabilities right out of the box. Good graphics would help, too.

But one thing that makes the Big N endearing is its gameplay. No, it doesn't have a plethora of M rated games. Yes, it has a plethora of fun games. FUN. That's important. A game doesn't need blood and adult stuff -- it needs to be just plain FUN, and Nintendo can full well deliver that.

This next console will either make or break Nintendo. Handheld territory is anyone's game, with the PSP. (Nintendo supposedly wasn't worried about the PSP, saying that [paraphrase] "Nintendo has always held the handheld market and always will". Well, duh, Nin. You've been the only ones out there. And did you forget that Sony has the largest gaming fanbase out there? Hellooooo??)

I could go into an hour long discussion on that topic, but I'll spare you that agony. ;)
