Since I was part of the problem of this deviation of a conversation, I'll start it back towards the right path, if that's possible:
1. Isn't it a bit early to be calling Nintendo "in the lead?"
2. Isn't it a bit vague to imply that Nintendo was screwed in the past, which would allow for them to be "screwed again?"
Can you clarify where you think Nintendo was screwed in the past? Are you talking about losing market share to Sony? Are you suggesting that they now have the most market share and what can they do to lose that? Perhaps we should wait until, oh let's just throw a silly number out there, like...10 million units are sold or something?
Hey. I actually believe Nintendo WILL win this gen as far as hardware sales go. I really think they are on the right track for their company and will find a way to translate the DS success into Wii success.
But GOD DAMN it's a little premature to be asking what it would take for Nintendo to be "screwed again," when in reality, they were never screwed and moreover, this gen hasn't even freaking started.
Horrible thread with good intentions. I think what you meant to say was "It appears that Nintendo might actually have a chance to win this gen in console hardware sales, but what do you think could prevent that?"
But that's not at all what you said. This thread is filled with assumptions on both sides of the ball and is freaking ridiculous.
