They need to just sell all their rights and fizzle out, I mean come on there is like 50 mario things and almost all the new ones suck. Just give up.

Its a matter of opinion on weather they suck or are any good. I agree that that dancing Mario game sucked though.
The other i liked mostly.

I think it's a waste. Nintendo needs to just stick with one console.

It looks similar to the NES controller though. So it must look like Nintendo is resulting to old-school now since it must be some fad thing people are interested in or they just can't be anymore creative.

I dont really know if the NES controller was the inspiration fot the design but they do look similar though but I might be wrong:

Remember when everyone was happy with gameboy pockets? hahaha!! My calculator has better graphics!! :roll:

But they do share a surprising similarity.

No, the I-pod is popular. And it's made by Apple.

Nintendo should give up. They are already in the dump "and" in the hole. Think about it:

  1. The games are horrible (Mario Party 7??? When will Nintendo know that no one buys those anymore?)
  2. The Revolution will intake maybe $1000.00 on it's first year ("IF" it is lucky)
  3. Sales have been dropping since the DS was released before the PSP and thereafter
  4. Can't say anything will compete with the XBOX360, Playstation 3, and PSP
  5. Gamecube is selling for $24.99 US currency on eBay and used game stores (XBOX is at least getting $70.00 at EB Games)
  6. Have way to many Gameboys out there (GBA Micro? And to think they just released a new GBA SP with a better screen)
  7. Graphics don't compete anymore (PSP is smaller, has more options, etc.; while DS has what? A touchpad and semi-improved speakers? Big deal...)


Face it...Nintendo is gone. Unless they can magically bounce back with the overall poor design of the Revolution, I'd say a once good company has fallen to pieces.


EDIT: Yes. iPod is designed by Jobs @ Apple and although he releases way too many models, they actually SELL! I myself own 5 different models and I love how he tries to make it so I can't make my own programs for it. Too bad he never wins. :)

Oh yeah; one more thing...

Gameboy Micro has been out quite a loooooooooong time (hmm......I might think about sometime in September! If you think it is new, guess what: its not.)

Well if it's been out for months how come the first time i saw a commercial about it was only a few days ago?

Personally I think the GC is the complete opposite of a 'kids' console.
Splinter Cell isn't exactly a little kids game. The GC was really good and im gunna get this Nintendo Revolution when it's released.
Nintendo Isn't exactly as good as XBox 360 or Playstation 3 Or the PSP but it's still good.
(i don't think there is any console that can match the 360 and PS3)
