I liked him better in his X-Box fanboy form, he was more entertaining.  Taking horrible news and turning it into good news, that was funny shit.

Nintendo did fine in my opinion. I don\'t think anyone expected them to outsell the PS2, espically with all the RPG\'s comin\' out recently / soon for the PS2. Sure, they aren\'t the all dominating factor that they use to be (pre-SNES days).  But they still have a good chance, espically when you take into consideration all the money they get from the one market they do own...the handheld market.

A chance to achieve what in the future?

I\'m not talking market domination here. I\'m talking a chance to survive and stay a stable part of the industry.

Big difference in general. While a lot of Nintendo fans would like to see Nintendo dethrone Sony, I just don\'t see that happening anywhere in the future. What I do see is NIntendo pulling out constant great games, and enough sales to keep them in second place, while MS falls further and further behind.

Yeah, anybody that thinks Nintendo is going to pull into 1st-place this generation is dreaming.

Also, I don\'t think they need incredible sales to be successful. If they build up a good 45 million worldwide user-base, they can focus solely on games until the hardware isn\'t viable anymore. This is likely their plan.

Of course, they\'ll probably go into the next generation late (yet again) and that system will fall behind Sony again.

both m$ and nintendo will fall behind PS3 next generation

unless, m$ wants to sink another 2 BILLION dollars in the growing hole

Sony\'s console industry could implode on itself next generation if it decides to go ahead with its online only plan.

That\'s the only way Nintendo will have a chance at overtaking them in the near future (and Microsoft too for that matter).

What Nintendo need to do is stoip relying on old franchises, and Rare to help them sell their console.. especially seeing as Rare wont be around much longer.  Pikmin isnt good enough, they need huge blockbuster franchises to be created over the next 6 or 7 years, and lots of them.  But I\'m afraid Miyamoto and the rest of Nintendo no longer have the creative power to do so

I believe Nintendo has been picking up some pretty nice first party developers...Silicone Knights, Retro Studios, and Left Field Productions come to mind.  All of them are working on new franchises...it just remains to be seen if they are blockbuster material.
