I think i have lost hope.
. It's over. I can't lie to myself anymore. I sit and i beg for it to no be so. But i have to splash water on my face, come to my senses and admit what i have seen. The beloved family brand that made my entire childhood magical has reduced itself to empty lies, false dreams, pathetic production rates and has become a reseller paradise.
. They have admitted defeat and they just don't care anymore. I think this might be them just declaring death and the 1st step in them going 3rd party. And i know it's depressing to hear but it doesn't seem right. Any company that was even half serious about dominating a competitive market would have been on the phone with anyone once they seen the NES mini sales and demand. Or the switch sales and demand. They would have had 5 million in every country as well as a SNES mini, a N64 mini, hell... a virtual boy mini!! They would feast on the booming retro market and claim themselves back into the industry as king. But it is Scar killing Mufasa. Nintendo is Mufasa. Sony is Scar. Xbox is Simba. IT'S OVER!!!!!
Do they want me to cry? Is that what they want. Do they want me to hang my head at easter dinner in front of my family and cry? Why Nintendo? Someone please tell me why? Why would they ever discontinue something that sold boat loads for them? Something that was a easy cash cow for them? One of the most demanded gaming items of not only 2016. But ALL TIME!!!. I seen the demand. My whole feed was talking about it, it trended on twitter. It was on the trending page on YouTube. People wanted it!!! If they made 5 million of them they would have sold every last one and had people angry for more. Miyamoto would have been laying in a gold bath tub fulled with money and silver coins. Nintendo would have become scarface of the gaming industry.
I am so depressed. Now i will never get one.
I will never pay PS4 prices for a NES emulator.
If they make a SNES mini the production rates will just be the same and it will only annoy people further. I will never even bother to get hyped about anything they announce again. Including the Cloud Amiibo. I know i won't get one. I was crazy lucky to even get a switch.
Let's just hope they have something special up their sleeve they are directing their resources towards. Maybe Nintendo VR or a Real Life Pikachu Robot.
