@emperiox I didn't think Nintendo reported quarterly, but the fact that they announced their first annual loss earlier this year does suggest some issues. However, I think the first quarterly operating loss they reported was in July, so there should be about four in a row there.
Nintendo does need to find a way to get back on track. I feel like they don't quite know their target audience, though. What they announced E3 was great news for casual gamers. But, by definition, casual gamers are the least likely to be paying attention to E3. Thus, all of us watching E3 didn't get anything out of it. Considering E3 is now journalist-only, it was a good business decision, announcing things to the wider market when the eyes of the world's media are focused on them, but long-time fans and gamers were mostly glossed over.
@emperiox I agree that more IPs is a good thing. However, a lot of the Mario, Zelda, Pokemon and Metroid games are very popular, and guaranteed to be a good business move for Nintendo.
The main issue I personally have with the conference today is that nothing NEW was shown. I'm excited for a number of those games, but I wish Nintendo actually revealed some new games, rather than just re-iterating things we already knew months ago.
@emperiox Did you always insult them, type in caps and act like a kid, though? It might not be that they have an issue with your dislike of Nintendo; it's probably more that no one appreciates being unfairly discriminated against for their opinions.
@emperiox I don't believe I mentioned anything about Nintendo. Just pointing out that if you want to be taken seriously when calling things childish, acting like a seven-year-old isn't a good way to go about it.
