What Mystery is trying to say, and you are failing to grasp somehow, is that Nintendo used to be able to match power/graphics/games/controllers/the whole console with other competition out there. They used to be fairly comparable, maybe not winning on all those fronts, but they were either at the top or near it.


That's not the issue I know this. But I don't think they were power chasing, it was just more accessible and easier to do back them. You could stay competitive without spending a ton of cash and still keep things affordable. See this quote form a few posts ago:

If Nintendo is going to stay underpowered, the console has to be very cheap. The wii u was too expensive for what it was.

At this point I have no belief that Nintendo will ever get 3rd party support back. They don't seem willing to do what I needed for that. They will continue having good first party games but at this rate no one will have their console to play them.

Yes, That is all. It spiraled from there.

I will say this Freaux, you seem like a smart guy, so I respect your opinion and agree with everything your last long post said for the most part.

Nintendo definitely has always tried to be cheap with their consoles and have pretty much said to 3rd party, "our way or the highway".

We just have different opinions of their intentions.
