Werne Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) Its safe to say Nintendo is doing very well, now the real company that should be counting its losses is MS, not Nintendo.Nope, Nintendo is still screwed. Mario Kart 8 boosted their sales momentarily but the fact that they still lack any worthwhile games even after almost full two years of the console being out will kill them in the long run. The biggest margins for Nintendo is the software, they release consoles with low margins in order to make money on the software. They suck in both regards at the moment and seeing how much money they lose, there might not even be a Nintendo by the end of 2018. Sony, on the other hand, is bleeding money everywhere. Their smartphone division is being decimated by Samsung and Qualcom, their entertainment division is under a lot of pressure as well from Samsung, etc, the software division is being hit hard from all sides and console sales brought little to no money despite the large number of units sold (low margin per unit). At their current pace, by the time next generation of consoles is to be released there won't be a Sony. Microsoft is actually the only one that doesn't have to worry all that much. While XBone is a flop, they have a damn strong software division to keep them running. Windows Server has high margins per unit, so does Office, and even Win8 is still selling slowly despite it being a big freakin' failure. And that's all without DirectX royalties, Windows tablet/smartphone sales (tablet/phone sales also kinda suck) and various other contracts and agreements. So yeah, there's no use of Nintendo/Sony making $5 on consoles if they lose $10 at the same time in another department. :wink: Edited July 21, 2014 by Werne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor. Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) True, While the console market is failing the pc hardware sales is sky rocketing, Soon will be the only way for gamers to stay relevant by 2020. They will soon have to adopt, resistance is futile. Edited July 21, 2014 by Thor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iv000 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Disturbing, move along nothing to see here. Unless you are that type then lv000 is all yours lol. Why is everything always so disturbing to you? You're from Canada, if anything, hugging a guy shouldn't be disturbing. As soon as I get my emotional energy focused I'll have a big warm gentle bear hug for you. Wooo! :happy: Well, you're in luck. See, I know this place where there's this really long, hard, round pillar that just loves giving soft gay fluffy rainbow hugs. It even glows when you get close to it. How cool is that? :devil: I honestly first thought of a penis, and then you said that it glows, and I was like, "What penis glows in the dark?" Oh man wait, there's these glow in the dark condoms. SO IT IS A PENIS Right? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackRampage Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 (edited) Right? :tongue: :tongue: Heh, and here I thought this was gonna be too easy. OK, hint # 2: I am faithful to someone. Who is it? Once you know the answer to that question, you'll know of what kind of pillar I speak. :devil: Edit: Spelling :wallbash: Edited July 21, 2014 by BlackRampage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ub3rman123 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Nintendo's conference at E3 this year almost convinced me to buy a Wii U. Almost. I wouldn't be able to live with the shame of owning one, though. I wish they'd pulled that conference last year; they could've wrecked Microsoft and Sony's poor showings.

Werne Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 OK, hint # 2: I am faithful to someone. Who is it? Once you know the answer to that question, you'll know of what kind of pillar I speak.You know, I could turn Borthiah's pillar into a big glowing penis within an hour. I think Molag Bal might get a kick out of it. :tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Long distance is hard. In multiple ways :happy: ) Well, if anything, I am not craving hugs anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
