  1. God Nintendo, I love you but how un-prepared are you for HD gaming? I think they did learn from the 3ds however I think they should learn more from the Wii U. There is so much more that is now “standard” in gaming now and the higher ups need to realize that. I think we should give Iwata ONE more chance with a handheld and a home console and after that I feel its time for new talent at nintendo

        1. No, it really isn’t. Online gaming existed long before HD gaming existed.

          In short:
          HD gaming = Gaming with HD graphics. This has only really been mainstream in a sense since the 7th Generation (not including PC gaming).
          Online gaming = Games that use the internet or another network of sorts to further enhance the experience. Consoles as far back as the Intellivision (PlayCable) and Atari 2600 (GameLine) had this, as did the Famicom, Super Famicom, Sega Megadrive, Saturn and Dreamcast, long before XBOX Live was established (and that’s not including PC gaming via LAN or internet).

          1. Ofcourse it isn’t I am just saying its just part of the package that came with HD gaming, there are a lot of things that came with HD gaming that didn’t affect HD graphics.

            It didn’t hit the mainstream until HD gaming came along, the Xbox started that revolution and those other consoles did have them but they weren’t a big part of them.

            I said it came with the package so yea it really is

    1. thats just it, nintendo isn’t threatened or suffering, its that they’re not prepared if so, they would have everything they announced this year out by now on specific dates. but they are trying too hard, they need to focus on 3 or 4 projects at a time. and they need to quickly get the nintendo ID network a server of its own and add a account system with it. when the ID came out a lot of people suddenly lost they ID’s, and everything with it, so it was no good from the start, the e-shop needs a new update, it wasn’t functioning when it first came out, and still isn’t even after upgrading it, they need to sit down and start planning things in stead of getting excited and tell others whats coming out and failing to do so.

      1. I agree, I don’t think they are suffering or anything but that they were very un-prepared with the generations they skipped ahead. They are learning now rather than they did with the Wii.

  2. Hooray! Now if they can just replace the deaf, blind gerbil they have who randomly chooses each week’s Virtual Console offerings.

      1. Ha! Great point!
        Yes, I’d like to exchange my 300 coins for a folder, please, while Japan gets a Super Famicom controller attachment for Wiimotes.

        1. Oh God! The horror!! As long as Iwata is around, Nintendo will always be a generation or two behind. He needs to be eliminated ASAP!

          1. Anubis, please understand, I am Iwata best president every of Nintendo. I make the DS, 3DS, and Wii very successful because of my blue ocean strategy, The Wii U is soon to make a came back because of family-friendly games like Mario 3D Wolrd, Wii U Fit U, and Donkey Kong Freeze. Also hardcore games like Bayonetta, Smash Bros, and X. That is why ima stay president of the Nintendo and never be fired. Please understand. I apologize if you cant understand me cause im a JAPANEEEEEEEESE!

  3. I wonder if they have programming jobs, i’m planning to major in Computer Science and it would be so awesome to be able to help program for Nintendo!

  4. so it must have been that bad to put up job openings or the need manpower which they dont have enough of. either way the do need it techs so this wont happen again or at least of this magnitude

  5. I think everyone needs to calm down. The Wii U eShop is back up and running. The 3DS eShop is still down, but its not like Sony or Microsoft has never had network issues. They all did so everyone needs to calm down.

  6. they should learn from this and improve so they can handled the realese of mario kart 8 i dont wanna server downs when they realese mk8 no excuse.

  7. please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand!please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand!please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand! please understand!
