sorry if I come across sounding as a pure Nintendo loyalist, this isn't true. I own PS2 xbox, I own a 360 and I'll get a PS3 in the future too. The merit of Nintendo consoles were the awesome 1st party games they make. The first year of Wii was fantastic, they released Zelda, Metroid, and Mario was released not too long ago as well. Mario Kart and SSB:B are also excellent recent additions. But looking at last years E3 conference, the "big" announcement was Wii Fit. That doesn't target my demographic at all. That was the warning sign in my mind that Nintendo are pretty much throwing us on the scrap heap, and are going to forget about us. And this years E3 conference? Wow, abysmal. While Wii Fit isn't a traditional game, it at least appears somewhat challenging and fun to play. But Wii Music? Come on, what the fuck is that? Liek I said, motion based controls is no excuse for making a terrible game, and Wii Music is just total garbage. Everythign else they showed was pretty terrible too, Animal Crossing is basically the same its always been except now with a microphone. WOW, a microphone, something that's been around for ages on XBox and PC gaming. Reggie and Iwata spent about 10 minutes talking about some stupid paradigm shift (read: selling shit to clueless customers) and how they have to continually stay ahead of the competition. Then they unveil Wii Sports 2. Disgraceful, throwing frisbees at a dog is bullshit, the only fun thing shown was sword dueling. Already they're falling into the sequel fest to churn out cash (refer to Mario Party, it was only fun the first time). With Nintendo seemingly no longer making their awesome 1st party games, they're setting a precedent for 3rd parties to also create rubbish titles.
nintendo could make sick money if they made a MMORPG or something like that with gay koopas and shit

do you really feel theyve wronged u and they owe u for supporting them when no one else would, LOL wtf? this is business, if they did that theyd be busto.
Just for the record, YES, nintendo does owe its core fanbase. The only reason they could survive the sony/microsoft onslaught was becouse of fanboys that kept supporting/buying their nintendo 64 and gamecube stuff. if it was for the masses nintendo would be broke by now or at least confined to the handheld market.
the reasons nintendo survived the gamecube, are the people who are now looking at nintendo's line-up saying "omfglolwtfhappenhere".
now i dont mind them releasing generic shit for their system, the more cash for them the better, but that doesnt mean they can sit on their asses releasing only 3-4 worthwhile games a year.

what are u talking about. the reason nintendo survived the gamecube was the wii and their paradigm shift to appeal to the casual gamer. the wii made console gaming much more mainstream with something for all the family. wii sales were ridiculous. there arent enough of u hardcore gamer oldschool nintendo fanboys left to make a difference so nintendo barely need u anymore. thats why the n64 and cube got crushed by ps and ps2/xbox and why the wii is the biggest selling seventh generation console by a long way. ofcourse theyre gonna sit on their asses with regards to first party nintendo franchise games targeted at the hardcore gamers. shouldnt u be happy with mario, zelda, smash bros and whatever other efforts nintendo have already made for u? isnt 3-4 titles a year for you enough? or do u guys expect too much. am i wrong?
