Do you Think Nintendo is Going DownHill or Uphill in the gaming industry?

I see and hear lot of hate towards Nintendo and say all these bad stuff and they say Nintendo isn't the same like they used to be and Nintendo is the new Sega and will end up like Sega and Nintendo is going bankrupt and they will make games for Microsoft , Sony , Even Apple cause they lost tons of money off the 3ds and the wii and Nintendo stock is going down. If all of this true or not ? What's your opinion on it?

    Uphill:

    First 6 months sells of the PS3 = 1,270,000

    First 1 month sells of the 3DS = 3,600,000

    So everything Nintendo has been making has been out selling the PSP, PS3 & X Box 360.

    @ everybody else

    Next time do your research.

    And You Should get the 3DS.

    Because you can play music (even with the system close).

    You can LOWER the VOLUME of 3D so it does NOT give you headaches for the first time in your life (if you're the kind of person to ever get headaches from 3D, otherwise just turn the 3D all the way up).

    And you can also turn the 3D OFF Completely.

    And 3D is good for working out your eye muscles & brain to keep them in shape as shown in this link:

    http://www.aoa.org/x17309.xml

    And the Nintendo 3DS has downloadable 3D Music videos from today's American music artist which I have already downloaded the 3 free 3D Music Videos to watch anywhere and the 3DS has 3D "Blue Man Group" video and College Humor (in 3D) with the FREE "Nintendo Video" App that you can download (but its 4 3D Videos at a time and they replace them once in a while) and you can download cheap downloadable 3D Apps & 3D games costing from 99 cents to $5.99 and the Nintendo 3DS also has FREE downloadable 3D Apps & 3D Games, which I have already downloaded 3 Free 3D Apps and I have downloaded 2 Free 3D Games and the 3DS has a 3D Camera and I have already used the 3DS 3D Camera to take 3D photos and I have uploaded some of my 3D footage online using the Nintendo 3DS's Web Browser to upload my 3D footage online and I have used my 3DS Web Browser to also download other peoples 3D footage from the Internet on my 3DS Web Browser and I have view all sorts of 3D content on 3D Websites online on my 3DS's Web Browser and I have use my 3DS 3D Camera to play 3D Augmented Reality games as well and it's all in 3D without the Glasses using the 3DS 3D Camera and It has beautiful 3D HD graphics that equal to that of a 3D HD version of Wii Graphics and I have Streamed 3D Videos Online on my 3DS in the eShop and I have also Watch 3D Trailers for upcoming 3D movies coming to Theaters in 3D and I have done all of this in 3D Without the Glasses.

    And the 3DS with a Wi-Fi Update can RECORD 3D Videos in 60 fps (unlike other camcorders, that only Record in 2D Only and in up to 30 fps only).

    So you can pay $169 for a Nintendo 3DS and buy the greatest Games ever & all in 3D Without the Glasses like Cave Story 3D and Kid Icarus and Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 using the MOTION SENSORS to play the game like if you were turning a real steering wheel to turn the Kart left & right and also play such other 8 GB 3D Games like TheatRhytem Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts 3D and Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D and Crush 3D and Shinobi and Animal Crossing and Rodea the Sky Soldier and Michael Jackson: the Experience 3D and Ridge Racer 3D and Super Street Fighter 4 3D and Monster Hunter 4 and Golden Sun 4 and Star Fox 3D and Zelda 3D and Sonic Generations 3D and Tetris 3D and Resident Evil: Revelations and Tales of the Abyss 3D and Tekken 3D which also has the 3D Movie Tekken the Movie 3D in it to watch and also play other 8 GB 3D HD games as Spider Man 3D and 100% of the 3DS games are in HD 3D Without the Glasses.

    Also, the screen is perfectly fine, in terms of resolution. Anyway, it’s the pixel density that matters, not the actual number of pixels. The 3DS pixel density is MUCH sharper than an average HD TV of, for example, 32 inches. It’s perfectly fine. Not everything has to be 1080p you know. Since 1080p at 32 inches is worse than just 240p on the 3DS.

    And they're making Angry Birds 3D as a downloadable game.

    And the 3DS has DLC (Downloadable Content) like Xbox Live for a bunch of 3DS games to add content to the game later on for Free.

    And 1 of the Free 3D Apps I have downloaded was Netflix.

    And Netflix is getting 3D Movies in the next few months, so for $169 you can watch 3D movies on the free Netflix App on the 3DS in 3D Without the Glasses.

    And 100% of the people who have said that they get headaches from 3D, have said that after up to 1 week of using the 3DS they NO LONGER get headaches anymore and that they now play with the 3D all the way up 100% all the time, non-stop.

    But I have never had any problem with the 3D at all, but each person has a different experience with the 3D ON during the first week.

    And you can now pay to download 3D & 2D Videos on the 3DS.

    And the 3DS is getting Hulu Plus before the end of this year (2011) as a Free downloadable App and Hulu already has 3D Content.

    and you can check this Link below for more 3DS Games:

    Source(s): And here are the 2D Resolutions: Wii = 640 3DS = 800 And here are the Motion Sensors: Wii = 1 Axis 3DS = 3 Axis And here are the Frame Rates (Frames Per Second): All other Video game systems = 30 fps 3DS = 60 fps And the 3DS has Near PS3 Graphics as shown in this Link here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedd... And the 3DS has a 512 MHz Micro Processor. And the 3DS Wireless is 2.4 GHz.

    Personally I think Nintendo is going downhill. Im not a fanboy or anything but the will lacks good games compared to the ps3 and 360. However the wii does have some amazing games. The wii does not have many good 3rd party games and has an awful online system and lacks good graphics. However Nintendo is losing touch with reality. Nintendo seems to be obsessed with gimmicks rather then what the customer wants however Nintendo does make some of the best games out there. Sales wise Nintendo is doing the best. At this rate I think Nintendo may become a 3rd party company in 6 years from now. Hopefully all that will change with the wii U.

    I don't think we will be seeing an end to Nintendo as console makers in the next decade at least. The DS is arguably the best handheld console there is, and it is certainly better to use cartridges on the go rather than CDs, as they can be scratched. Every company that has been in this industry has had a "flop", so to say. ( Sega with the 32X and Sega CD, Atari with the 5200/Jaguar, Sony with the Play Station Move, Nintendo with the 3DS, and even Microsoft with the earlier XBOXs that always broke.) Nintendo's Wii U is a good console, but it should be really marketed as a portable console because of it's other capabilities. So to answer your question, I say uphill. Even if they lose their part in the home console market, there will always be portable, because there is only one alternative (PSP) and it is far inferior.

    It true.

    nintendo been going down hill.

    Instead of keeping a currently system out and releasing more title worthy games, they been releasing newer and newer system every year.

    at first it was the ds, then the ds lite then the super ds lite and now the 3ds.

    year after year. waste of fken money
