Has Nintendo Already Won Next Generation?

It’s not any surprise that the Wii-U is lacking in sales. After all, those who bought the Wii may be more willing to go with a Playstation Move, or a Kinect, for their casual gaming experience. But make no mistake of it, Nintendo may still be a force to be reckoned with as far as gaming goes. So, has Nintendo already won next generation? And if not, how can they fix their mistakes?

cant win what hasn't fully started yet... but no.

Enemy4747d ago

Have Nintendo even announced their next gen console yet? :)

Nyromith4747d ago

It's losing even to this generation.

jcnba284747d ago

Sorry buddy but the Wii already won this generation. The Wii U is competing with the 8th generation of consoles. You're welcome.

LOL_WUT4747d ago

A desperate move to get a head start doesn't make one a winner. ;)

Realplaya4747d ago

@ LOL_WUT you flip flop on every Nintendo article why don't you just choose a side.

Whymii4747d ago (Edited 4747d ago )

That's because he owns a Wii u and feels he must post on every Wii u related article, which is fair enough. Otherwise, if he doesn't own a Wii u he'd just be another self-opinionated trolling fanboy with nothing better to do. But that's unlikely given how rare they are on N4G...

We're not even half a year into this generation and the two other consoles aren't even out yet. Save dumb questions like these for when the generation is nearly over in about five to six years or so.

lilbroRx4747d ago

Four year, as Nintendo releases a console every 5, so we should exepct Nintendo's next console in 2017.

PopRocks3594747d ago

Yeah, I know. But I'm talking about this generation as a whole. We don't know the lifespans of the PS4/Nextbox. It could be an extra year or two like with this generation.

deafdani4747d ago

The Wii lasted 6 full years before its sucessor was released. This generation of consoles has been by far the longest in video game history, so we really don't have the slightest idea how long will the next generation last (Wii U included).

lilbroRx4746d ago

@deadfani, I meant to say announaced. The Wii U was announced in 2011.

Can't wait. Earlier this morning I was trying to figure out how many generations of Nintendo home consoles I'd be able to "experience". I'm forty nine soooo I'm hoping for six. Of course medical science should be more advanced as I age sooo I could concievably witness fifteen sixteen! That would be nice.
Oh yeah. Nintendo has already won this eighth generation home video game console war.

A. Nintendo develops the best software period the end. The reason why Nintendo runs into trouble with third parties is third party software can't compete with Nintendo's own triple A titles.
B. Nintendo harware could withstand Superman's many awesome powers: So not only has Nintendo won the eighth generation home video game console war I think they can beat Superman in a fight.
C. Their customer service is nuber one in the entire electronics business.
D. Reggie. He's really nice and his smile reaches his eyes. He's a gamer. Not so great at public speaking but so are you and I.
E. Latteral thinking with Withered technology. Look it up!
F. Nintendo fans. If you've spent anytime on the Miiverse you'll soon realize the people there are nice. Smart. Artistic. Genius' and have excellent taste in video game hardware and software. Big difference between Xbox Live. Just a tad. Plus they're (we're) more welcoming to new and returning gamers.
Well until the ninth generation I'd like to say congratulations to Nintendo and to Sony and Microsoft I say,"Better luck next time me laddos! You're going to need it.

Pixels in the Blood: The Journey of Rob Hewson

The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.

Best 2D, Mario World, best 3D, Mario 64. Can't say there's been a bad one, although Mario World 2 wasn't a true sequel. The Mario Land games were good (not the first one) and also Wario Land. I thought after Mario 64, Mario 3D World was excellent.
