NINTENDO ARE STILL IN THE CONSOLE GAME.FACT
At a recent conference in New York,Nintendo announced that it is currently developing the succesors to gamecube and GBA.This awesome news crushes the strong rumour that Nintendo was to do a Sega and cease developing consoles,focusing solely on creating games.
Now how much this may heart me to hear i cant do anything about it mind what ive seen it looks good(yes you heard it i said nintendo sound good).
No details have been released regarding the technolodgy in development for either of the new consoles.But if previous trends are anything to go by,i expect GameCube's successor will be no less than a whopping 256-bit machine,and no doubt wireless controllers will come as standard.As for Game Boy advane,s futere replacement,how does a backlift handheld as powerfull as an N64 sound? The leap from GBC to GBA was almost as dramatic.Please let it be so!
2005 is the date sony has set for the launch of PS3,and microsoft big cheese Ed Fries has just announced that the follow-up to Xbox is scheduled for release before PS3.Yeah. So although Nintendo hasn't yet given a preliminary release date for its new consoles,2005 is looking likely.You don't want to wish time away for it or do you.
Any way i posted this for people who dont know so please dont start.

you DO know that practically all the forum members recieve SR newsletters with this sort of stuff hot off the press?
Nintendo are good at pulling the wool over there loyal customers eyes they did it in the 90's and were fined for doing so.
I will believe it when I see it, firstly there is the cashflow problem Nintendo have sold the GC to cheaply and are losing shed loads on each one sold, and to compound that they are not selling enough of them. Then there is the selling of Rare and the European fine, it is just Nintendo trying to reasure it's Ninty saps that everything is ok.
This is why they have seen fit to try and combat some of the worrying cracks in there outfit. However I very much doubt that Nintendo have the money to spend on R&D for new consoles at this moment in time.

These Nintendo plans, could be an aspiration... They may plan to do it, but in reality that know or will find out that they can't reach to that at the moment.
