Note to self, never go to the Escapist forums for informed or realistic opinions on anything relating to Nintendo. ಠ_ಠ
It's obvious that this thread is underestimating the hell out of Nintendo's durability. If they were going to throw in the towel on consoles they would have done it during the Gamecube era, not now. Nintendo's been through some rough patches before, but since 2005 they've basically been coming back in case you haven't realized. So I'm supposed to believe that after being the only one who's consoles were sold for profit last gen, after outselling the other 2 consoles, and being first to the punch unveiling their next one which will have no direct competition for at least a few years, that after all that, Nintendo's gonna decide to jump ship and abandon their gravy train?
Feel free to call me a "fanboy", that word lost all meaning on this site when it started referring to anyone who doesn't automatically hate Nintendo.
