    It's all over folks, Nintendo declined, saying "We will not be bought" or something to that effect...I lost the article link.

    Personally I don't think Nintendo has gotten 'weak' at all. It seems like that to a lot of people, I believe, because its aimed towards younger children more now than ever. Since we all grow up eventuall, a lot of people tend to grow out of Nintendo, and it seems to be growing weak, but I think in reality our own tastes have just changed.

    Bah, Nintendo's still number one on my list for game developers. Konami a close second.

    i like nintendo as well, better than xbox...

    i mean, how much $ do you think they got for putting out mario and zelda? they capitalized so much on those two things alone, and there are more, but if you walk into a store these days there are dozens of different games starring the same character made by nintendo.

    I was a fanatic Nintendo-gamer, till the Gamecube came, i have played Mario and Zelda: The Wind Waker both, and they dont even get close to the Nintedo 64 series. Nintendo needs a new strategy if they want to survive, i don't think it's a bad thing if Microsoft is going to buy Nintendo. The Money of Microsoft and the originality of Nintendo, that is going to be great :D
