I am glad that they do not just give us the same thing as sony and microsoft. It gives us some diversity in the market. That being said they open themselves up to a lot of mistakes.

Sure, back when good game control was an unpaved frontier. But controllers have been perfected and they're just throwing that away.

Every true gamer is a little Nintendo fan-boy at heart... regardless of what platform(s) they play on...

If they're going to reinvent the wheel, they need to do it in a way that doesn't toss out everything that works so well.

No because choice and individuality are bad things.

I don't think Nintendo is trying to be different. I think Nintendo just does whatever the hell Nintendo wants to do, which ends up being different that what Sony and Microsoft want to do.

I want the choice to play Nintendo games with a PS3 controller. Oh well, there's always hacking.

Sure, why have multiple consoles that are similar? Ideally, they would all be different and all be worthwhile for different reasons.

I don't think this is the case now, but maybe in a few gens it will be.

Not when being different involves underpowered consoles with impractical controls.

Yes, it means we only have two consoles that are essentially the same opposed to three.

Yes and no. If it wasn't for companies trying to be different, then we would have the "same old" FOREVER.

BUT... at the same time, being different isn't ALWAYS good. lol

On the other hand because of this new controller with Wii and this low end hardware , they lost so many AAA multiplatform games which was insane.

They can innovate all they want as long as they try to compete on every other front. If someone mentions sales they can go for a walk.
