Just saying this right now:
Nintendo's next home console will rival at least the same capabilities as the next consoles Microsoft and Sony will release, and it will also include improved motion control.
Yeah, pretty big words.
But I've been thinking about it for over a year now (possibly two), and a lot of things that Nintendo's doing just DOESN'T ADD UP unless you consider that they're actually creating an extremely better console, or if they're trying to burn down the video game industry.
...and seeing that it was Nintendo that saved the video game industry, I highly doubt they're trying to burn it down. All signs point to the idea that Nintendo's going to make a triple threat of a console.
- ...why in the world did Nintendo remove the seal of quality?
- Why isn't Nintendo giving much support to 3rd party companies?
- Why is Nintendo deliberately removing features from 3rd party games without allowing the 3rd parties to explain why?
- Why has no news ever come up of what Nintendo's been doing with their vast fortunes (you can find it out easily when Microsoft or Sony are making big bucks)?
- And why was Nintendo actually looking at holographic memory technology?
I'm not making any of that crap up, look it up.
Nintendo's being really quiet about something.
...if my theory of "The Nintendo Wii is just an experimental system that Nintendo's trying out on the public." then all signs point to a really obvious conclusion.
- ...by allowing a much more "pure" experiment to run (an experiment without any other factors), the experimenters can get much more "pure" results.
- In this sense, Nintendo removed anything that would have made "Motion Controls" and its games obviously better than the competition (3rd parties get free reign, but are restricted from surpassing what Nintendo releases), different advertising campaigns are thrown in to test different reactions from the public (compare Wii Sports advertisements to Wii Fit ads to Wii Music ads), inexcusably lousy internet connections are given by Nintendo games even though it's obvious they can do better (SSBB vs Mario Kart Wii, and NSMBW not having ANY connection) act as an experiment to how the public sales react to internet-connection-based games, and Motion+ is released practically halfway through the Wii's life cycle - a technology that didn't seem too difficult to create - yet was oddly late -possibly an experiment that compared pre-motion+ game sales to post-motion+ game sales.
- ...think about it... Nintendo hated what happened to the Gamecube (it bombed in comparison to the PS2 and Xbox)...
- Nintendo Wii was just more powerful than the Gamecube (yet not as overpowered like the 360 and PS3), but it had motion controls... it makes a risky move, but cheap to create.
- motion controls was considered a gimmick at that time and before that, the idea of virtual reality seemed long gone and higher graphics took over...
- if the Wii was overpowered like the 360/PS3 with motion controls, and if motion controls wasn't actually a hit with the public, Nintendo would've made one of the biggest flops the gaming world has ever seen since their Virtual Boy... and I don't think they would've made it out alive.
Face it, Nintendo may be old school (their reluctance to making online capabilities a main thing), but that doesn't mean they're outdated and stupid.
They're not some old dog that can't do anymore new tricks (say what you will about Mario and Zelda, a good number of people will say that stuff never gets old... and they have actually created new games and characters, you just never thought about it)...
I honestly think they're planning something.
People may joke about a Wii HD, but I'm pretty sure it's more than a joke.
...wanted to say it here so that I can say "I told you so" if I'm right. :p
If I'm wrong, then you can call me an idiot. :D Everyone wins.
