I agree 100% tkbryant, the “triple A console game market” is heading towards a crash, though the gaming industry as a whole isn’t going anywhere.  Like you said, we’re in the middle of a big shift in the market.

 

Mong’s earlier point about us not needing new games is also quite true.  I personally have no intention of jumping into this next generation of consoles.  There’s enough of a backlog from previous generations to keep me more than busy.

It looks like Nintendo borrowed their Wii U strategy from a former competitor:

At least the Dreamcast got a bunch of fun games in it’s 3 year lifespan (1998-2001), even if most of those games are ported now.

does the WiiU have at least a DVD player? If not, that’s kind of pathetic. While I personally detest how Blu-Ray looks (saw it at a friends house, ugh!) would adding a DVD/Blu-Ray player attract more people to it? it’s arguable…

Unfortunately, the Wii U doesn’t have a DVD player or Blu Ray. Nintendo needs to do something with this system or it’s going to be a big disappointment. I wish I was the marketing director of Nintendo of America.
