Rumor.

 

[Jas0n]

Rumor.

Of course it is.

On what basis do you have any more reason to suspect it as a rumour than true? If anything, the facts lean more towards it being true.

I tend to just read news that comes from just Nintendo's website and no other website.
I am more likely to know that it is a fact by doing that.

 

[Ciaran]

No surprise there.

Nintendo isn't faring too well these days.

Mega just made it seem like it was a confirmed thing or something. I just wanted to make the fact that it's a rumor clear.

And it could be true, yeah. 01net was right about a lot of Wii U stuff and the 3DS Circle Pad add-on. But they've been wrong before too. Don't take rumors as fact, that's all I'm saying. Wait until they're confirmed/denied.

Nintendo has never really "played well" with third party developers. There aren't a lot of good EXCLUSIVE Third Party IPs for Nintendo.

nintendo confirmed for not in brawl

For anyone who's got 5 minutes, this is an interesting read and also very true.

It amuses me how some people react to this. Look at the red ring of death, an issue that occurred while the XBox was being sold too. I don't know if you people think Nintendo is going the way of Sega? Because it appears to be the exact opposite at this point. You don't get #1 in sales and call it failing. As for the 3DS, I think it was bound to be a tough market this generation and we'll see it when the Vita has difficulties as well.

Exactly. People are overreacting. Of course, it doesn't help that the media exaggerates things, too. The 3DS isn't in trouble at all. Before the price drop, it was selling just as well as the original DS had in the same amount of time, and the original DS launched during the holiday season, so really the 3DS was doing better than the DS. Now sales are picking up like crazy thanks to the price cut, and I'm sure once the holidays hit it will be seeing current DS level sales. And this silly Circle Pad add-on thing isn't something that everyone will be forced to use, either.

What's Microsoft? Is it that lame company with only one good IP?
