As some people may or may not know, Iwata announced that if the Revolution does not outsell the Gamecube, then it will be a complete fKitten Yiffer. If it does fail, this could mean the end of Nintendo Consoles. If this did happen, who would you like to see pick them up. I would hate for this to happen, I am somewhat of a Nintendo fanboy, but I am not going to ignore the facts. |

Sony, if it even happens. I'm leaning that it won't...and I doubt very seriously that Nintendo, who's been around for the longest time, would drop out of the console race...then again, I was suprised when Sega did it. |

Sony would have difficulty picking them up...anti-trust. Hold too large a marketshare. So MS would do it. Plus MS has mo money$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. But it probably won't happen. Unless they make as many dumb choices as they did this production cycle. |

Maybe Nintendo will slip out ... But, it would be cool if they came back completely fused with Sega. Old rivals, united! ... But yeah, I doupt it'll happen. |

Xeo, douBt. B! Not likely to happen any time soon, but... my bet would be on Microsoft. Edit: Oh, and this one is safe from my DIEPOLLDIE rage. (edited by Tamarin Calanis on 10-27-05 10:21 PM) |

Won't happen for a long time if ever. And even if they did... they'd use the Sega model I'm guessing. Third party. | |||

Won´t happen for a darn long time. And I´m happy with that. I´d rather see them in co-operation with Sega than with Sony or Micro$oft. |

Nintendo is the cockroach of the video game world. They will never die out. Even if the going gets thin, Nintendo can hide under a rock for 100 years then make a badass comeback. Anyways, if somehow they do end up dying, Sony would be the grandmaster of gaming. |

Won't happen, well not at the moment. Nitendo has been there for awhile. They are not likely to leave soon, and if they do, they might simply go the Sega way. |

Revolution's fKitten Yiffer wouldn't mean Nintendo's demise. It'd mean more dependance on DS and Game Boy. | |||

Originally posted by HyperHacker It really depends on how much they bank on Revolution. If it fails and they put a lot of stake on it...It might very well mean their demise. |

Their marketing for the VB was TINY. Compared to what else they had on the market? Yeesh. Face it, when you pour billions of dollars into a machine, it best perform. Putting a lot of stake in it is all they can do. |
