I agree with Jay. Nintendo is in deep when the big picture/long run are considered. They've alienated a shit load of third-party developers for too long...devs that won't necessarily come running back when Nintendo plays catch up with what will undoubtedly be another under-powered console under the auspices of "quality" over power. I've always felt that while graphics don't make the game, they do place certain limits on what can and can't be ported to a system, and Nintendo's going to reap what they've sown in this regards, sooner or later. What they did with the Wii was assure themselves another console in 2011. If they don't do something stunning that captures hardcore gamers, I don't see how they can survive.

What's amazing to me is how developers have abandoned PC gaming en mass in the last year or so. EA Sports has announced that it's not porting Madden any more, which really blows. And they blame it all on piracy. It really irks me because the current consoles and the last gen wouldn't have been shit if they didn't bastardize pc features like online play and anything even approaching pc graphics.
