On another note, Doom is the only acceptable villain for the Avengers movie. Stupid licensing issues.
At this point Nintendo could make all its decisions with a dartboard and never lose as long as Mario is involved.
They could sell a brick with buttons and a d-pad drawn on and they’d still make millions as long as a smaller Mario brick could be cemented on to it

While we're on handhelds, does anyone predict anything for the Vita? I know the sales did poorly on it so far in Japanland, but do we think that will pick up? And what of NA and Europe and such, do we think it'll sell well here? I have a bad sinking feeling that the Vita won't get a lot of sales it should for its gaming capabilities.
We all thought they were doomed with the Wii, too. I am still embarrassed about being wrong about that.
tbh I want them to fail so they put their games on all the other systems. I have Sonic on PC, now I want my HD Mario!

@TheRedComet:
naw dog naw. Doom has nothing to do with the Avengers. I mean, he could, but he's mostly known for messing with RIIIICCCHHHAAARRRDDDSS!
In other news, The marvel movies have been an amalgamation of the 616 and Ultimate continuities, with liberties of course, and loki was pretty much the big bad for a lot of ultimate line. I'm not sure how they are going to put Loki and the Skrull invasion into one movie but i'm excited. Hopefully if there is an avengers II (hurr durr pretty obvious) I would hope they would do more Ultron Hydra and A.I.M. What really sucks is that xmen, fantastic four and spidey are all out to other companies, so our chances of seeing a Secret Wars storyline is pretty much gone....
Although, I'm pretty sure (given the current MARVEL marvel movieverse) They could probably do a pretty bad ass Civil War movie.

I hope Sony loses the rights to Spider-Man, so that we can put Donald Glover as Spider-Man in a second Avengers movie.
am i right?!

I'm thinking the Vita will be a slow success. It's more expensive than the 3DS and doesn't have the Nintendo pedigree in marketing towards kids that the 3DS does, so it's less likely to get the parental purchases (plus, the fact Super Mario Land and Mario Kart 7, ideal games for that market, are out doesn't help). Vita has some strong software for the adult gamer and February is traditionally a fairly non-competitive time of the year for games, but I don't think it's got quite the spread a handheld needs to get a good, quick foothold.
I'm pretty sure no Nintendo system has officially been Doomed since the Game Boy Advance.
...I'll let myself out.

Celica: So far, I'm getting more excited for the wii-u every time I see it. It seems to be shaping up to be a Kindle Fire with a d-pad and some buttons.
I've been feeling more optimistic about the 3DS ever since those free GBA games I got which were awesome. But there's still a lack of interesting games coming out. I'd like to see Nintendo release that Fatal Frame spin-off to make up for not releasing Fatal Frame 4 on the Wii.
And fuck Julian Mcmahon for being a crappy Doom.

Nintendo stamped their name on Wii music ( essentially crap in a box) and it still broke a million. I don't know how anyone can count out brand recognition like that.
Good for Nintendo! 2012 is looking like it's going to be an even better year for them with the Wii U and what not. Actually, 2012 looks like it's going to be a great year for games in general!
@Spite Lack of interesting games coming out?

Bravely Default: Flying Fairy
Beyond the Labyrinth

@Ahoyhoy, Spite: Auggh, I want Bravely Default, and Luigi's Mansion so bad. Also, you forgot Paper Mario.
I play Mario Kart 7 every night and love it even though it has that stupid
Maka Wuhu glitch where you can skip a third of the level. If only there was some sort of way to patch the game and remove that exploit...

@tehtimeisnow: Well the iphone has been out since 2007, and the 3ds just released last year, so of course it's sold more silly! And what has Nintendo lost? They seem to be doing pretty good to me.
@free touch:
Doom has the same vendetta with Stark as he does with Richards. Loki also takes orders from Doom, because he knows Doom can do very, very nasty things to him via magic.

"Man, it's going to suck when Nintendo flushes all this money down the toilet with the Wii-U :("
So if the Wii U has a huge successful launch, like the Wii did, will you be waiting another 4 years to start bashing Nintendo's next system to come out? People doubt Nintendo every time, and yes they've had some screw ups over the years. But never doubt Nintendo, because they always find a way, to come out smelling like roses in the end!

Regardless of whether or not Jimbo thinks the 3DS is doomed, I wonder if the incessant bashing of the hardware will cease now.
One day, years down the road, Nintendo will stop making games for the 3DS. On that fateful day the 3ds shall be DOOOOOOOOOOMED FOREVERRRR!
Limited Zelda 3DS bundles were to blame...Well, welcome. Regardless, I have one, now, and I'm ecstatic.
Gamers (well, ok, people in general) have very limited memories and no grasp of history. Nothing sadder than the sad saps running around screaming Nintendo/Sony/Microsoft doom.
Sega only left the hardware business after several console generations worth of mismanagement due to corporate in-fighting between the east and the west. Atari just never recovered from the videogame crash in the 80's. Less than stellar sales over a limited amount of time is hardly the death knell of a hardware developer. Even if one of the developers had a single bad generation they could recover in the next. These companies aren't living paycheque to paycheque.

Nintendo: Proving all you need to do to survive is bide your time cutting grass till some hearts show up to save you.
I've had my outs with the handheld but whatever, I'm over it. Playing Ghost Trick because I got it for Christmas makes everything better. Can't wait for Nub-gate 2012 to start soon and RE Revelations, which drops the same day.
