Nintendo president Satoru Iwata told investors early this morning that gamers are now ready for new video games consoles. Iwata pointed to declining sales of all the major home consoles as the reason that consumers are looking towards brand new formats.
“However, not just the Wii, but the overall performance of home consoles in December was lower than the previous year, and I think that the market is now waiting for a new proposal for home consoles.”
lol my mody is ready too :DD
i meant body, but im gonna buy wii in this month :D
Save your money and get the Wii U when it comes out. That way you’ll have the new console and still have access to all of the older Wii games and accessories.
you dont have the wii… i feel sorry 4 ya
I have a Wii but i’m pretty much bored with it.
uh you beat me to it :)
First……. someone had to say it……
NO.
I’m ready for a new PC, not a console… I’ll get into the console market a couple years from now though; something like 1-2 years. Spring of 2013 sounds nice; a bountiful supply of games, available consoles everywhere, maybe a deal or two, software is ironed out; no negatives to getting the console a bit late really.
@Nintendo not to be rude, but, no shit sherlock.
I’ve been ready since 2010!!! I love the Wii and still buy recent Wii games such as Mario Galaxy 2, NSMB, Donkey Kong, Mario Party 9 and of course Skyward Sword. But I have my whole life to play them games, we need the next gen now!!
I’m quite patient actually, I’ve had the Wii since release in 2006 and now it’s 2012, and I think many other people are in the same situation and we just wanna try out the next gen console! However, we don’t want to rush it because we want really good games on release too, I agree the 3DS release games weren’t good but at least we had Ocarina of time to look forward to soon after. So I hope it’s release date is realistic with really good release games and also hopefully have the online store available from release too with maybe a few gamecube games to download etc.
sweet jesus… if we could download classic GameCube games, im buying Super Smash Bros. Melee. straight out.
Player of Choice: Roy
My player of choice is Ganondorf.
and i wish nintendo have more video games
Yes, We want more games. I mean honestly, the beter systems are for the Console. And I don’t know about you, but I wanna see how Apple will make a game console.
They already did, and it flopped http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Pippin
Wow, apple made a shitty product? Go figure.
It was after The Steve left but before he came back. In the 11 years he was gone, Apple went straight to hell and made many poor decisions.
It would be interesting if Apple decided to try one more time at a game console. It could have awesome exclusive features if you connect it to the long rumored Apple TV. It could be called “iGame” :)
Well it’s about time T_T
Well not me. I like the current gen, there just isnt anything new to improve on yet in my opinion. I think all 3 should of just waited until there was a new break through in technology. Now since Nintendo has thier system the other 2 are probaly feeling the pressure from it (of course they are not gonna say it but we all know it). Well just as long as the games are good ill buy them when those games are out. Ive learned waiting for Nintendo products is a good idea =D
Your refering to the 3ds right? :) i was extremely lucky to get one of the ones with good hinges and no defects.
Yep the 3DS. I was un aware of the deffects but now I like it even more that I waited on one. I was originaly waiting on getting one because I did not like the games available at launch. Then they lowerd the price and then the sexy Zelda Aniversary 3DS came out so im very happy to have waited on getting one.
Hmm yeah mine has that horrible hinge click noise which my ds lite (and dsi) doesnt and it sounds so bad :( but my 3DS is special to me cos it has the ambassador software on it so im ok for now, as long as I can transfer the 20 free games over to my new 3DS model in about 2 years time :P
I thought the click was normal, it doesn’t really bother me.
I’m def ready for something new I’ve had the wii since 2006 and the ps3 since 2007 and I bought a 3ds last year in march now ready for a new nintendo console and a new Sony console….I’m mostly excited about the wiiu though because nintendo is finally releasing an HD console with enough power to display very good graphics plus the controller is pretty neat as well and could def add new things in terms of gameplay plus the things I’m hearing about the nintendo network are also pretty exciting…
Sickr, I think you could compile some of the articles all together. There are just too many ones on the same subject with different news in separate articles. It creates too much chaos in the whole site and is more difficult to track each one I would like to.
I’m not, I’ll be too poor from all the great games coming out this year…
Gamers might be ready, but the lack of sales could also be attributed to lack of games.
I’m getting more and more concerned about Skyward Sword. It never appears on any top selling list and that concerns me because it was such a great and underappreciated game.

Now of only Nintendo had a next gen console.
What’s your definition of a next gen console?
A console that uses the same gameplay interface since 1997.
that excludes people who just bought their xbox 360 and or ps3.
I know. I JUST got my ps3 last month :l
nope I got a ps3 in november… beat gran truismo and uncharted 3… and now I’m done…. WII U TIME!!!!
How long did it take you to beat uncharted 3 just asking because it seem very short to me
Uncharted games aren’t really that long, those games take anywhere from 20-25 hours to beat.
Im ready for it! I will be a first day customer.
I was born ready.
we’ve been ready for 7 years xD
im ready for sure Nintendo,i saved up money(i have 1000 dollars in my bank) since the start of when Wii U was announced,as long as its not over 500$ i will buy i.t 350$-400$ is my favorable price range or lower.Im only 16 and have a job so its nice to be able to buy stuff for myself and not be a spoiled little bitch ;)
