jackbency | You are right. No one can't compare to Avatar 3D movie still I'll definitely eager to see Nintendo 3D because "3DS" handheld system will be one of the first 3-D devices to work without special glasses then I'll give you my review about this. | |

Mar 24th, 2010, 03:38 AM "Yes nintendo loves money" -Ant10708 No one is arguing that they don't like to make money. Yes every business wants to maximize profits but that doesn't mean other factors don't motivate and keep the company thriving and those factors could be equal or greater at least for employees then the desire to maximize profits. I am simply arguing that Nintendo is made up of many game creators and other such employees who I believe are more motivated by their passions of video games then making big money. I think its a very simplified belief that companies wouldn't exist if the drive to maximize profits wasn't the sole incentive. I could be very wrong though it is just my opinion. |

Zhukov | No, but if you didn't like food you would be dead, just like if Nintendo didn't like money, they would be dead. | |

robo_rob | Good thing your not in the eating food business then. | |
Mar 24th, 2010 11:54 PM | ||
Ant10708 | I like food too or I wouldn't be alive but it doesn't mean my sole purpose to living is to eat as much food as possible. | |

jhonnyD2 | they love money ..... all business things do... that's normal thing | |

Dr. Boogie | Sometimes innovation sells. Other times, you wind up with the PSPGo. | |

robo_rob | Nintendo loves money more, because innovation (or in other words, new product) sells. DS XL is only a risk if stores don't order the manufactured amount in inventory. If stores don't order any more, then it's a bust. Either way, as long as it goes to a store, it's going to make Nintendo money. It's just a matter of how much money. Nintendo likes money, or else they wouldn't be in business. | |

And how many years ago was the orginal gameboy? Cellphones use to be fucking huge and we managed too but they still get smaller and slimer despite the fact that we used larger ones in the past because thats what industry norms dictate. I'm not saying the size makes it unable to be used on the go but increasing the size of a handheld gaming device or eletronic device in general just goes against all the established norms of the industry. My opinion is that the ds XL is a much bigger risk then people are making it out to be. i feel nintendo going against industry norms and making out big is something to applauded and encouraged by gamers and not simiplified to "nintendo likes money" and are simply exploiting the consumer. I feel the nintendo wii has some of the best exclusive titles out there and if the company didn't take a significant risk with the wii we would never of played a boy and his blob remake or a mega man 9 and 10, or a no more heroes(not that these were made by nintendo but they were allowed a chance to gain an audience despite the industry thinking that the money is in big graphics and huge cinematic gameplay). I feel the Wii's biggest risk was not the introduction of the new motion control but going agaisnt industry norms and not making the system as powerful as possible. Nintendo takes constant risks(hardware wise) and has recently begun being rewarded for them again. Everyone thought that the nintendo wii was going to be their last system and they would go the way of sega and simply make games because they weren't making much money outside of the handheld market. I am happy their genuis has saved a truly great company from becoming solely a software provider and hope they continue to make buckets of cash. i just find nintendo to be a very interesting company business strategy wise. |

Nick | The XL isn't that much bigger. If you can carry the goddamn original Gameboy around then the XL should be light as a feather. | |

Ant10708 | Yes nintendo loves money but i think they love innovation much more(except obviously in online gaming). Making multiple systems is a big financial risk if they don't sell the new inventory and the new version flops. Nintendo is an amazingly smart company and without their innovation video games would be shit. Making the DS XL is a risk not guarnteed money for the company. They are going in the exact opposite direction of handheld gaming development thinking and making the system larger and heavier for a specfic audience. It could easily fail but I'm sure nintendo has done enough research to ensure the market exists for the xl. nintendo loves innovation and gamers reward them with lots of money i think is a much more fair statement. | |

But if the DSi can already do it, there's not much reason for a new system. So chances are it'll have that accelerometer for more precision. |
