The Question: Is Nintendo’s dominance over?

Recommended Videos

[Every Friday, Destructoid will pose topical a question to the community. Answer it if you want!]

This generation has been marked by Nintendo utterly dominating the market with the Wii. However, as sales settle down (mostly due to everyone on Earth owning a unit) and the 3DS lurches off shelves at a slow pace, it would appear to the casual observer that Nintendo’s time on top is drawing to a close. 

Project Cafe is approaching an imminent reveal, and its rumored focus on HD graphics and “core” gamers seems to paint it as a next generation GameCube. Could that be a bad thing? Nintendo trailed in last place in the previous generation, only shooting to the top with a unique new approach in the Wii. Is Project Cafe/Nintendo FEEL going to be unique enough to make lightning strike twice? 

Motion control is starting to fade away, and Nintendo clearly wants to apply jump leads to its hardware and kick off another craze. Will Nintendo do it, or is it setting itself up for another fall?

That is the question!
