    @topanaris you keep contradicting yourself. you want nintendo to expose itself to the dead sea of games that are on steam. you have so many games that you cant even play them all! and you want nintendo to join that mess? how does it help you to have so many games that you cannot even play them? why do you want more?

    The thinking is illogical. Nintendo gamed will not sell in the dilluted PC market. they will tank.

    Look at this game: 45$

    https://www.amazon.com/Legend-Zelda-.../dp/B006QRNKOO

    Compared to Watch dogs;

    You can get watch dogs for 7$ on PC! Its ridiculous that you would want nintendo to leave their monopoly and jump into that pit.

    Dude no no no no no no no no no. Yuh wrong on so many levels yuh wrong........ like just wrong. Did I mention you were wrong? No I didnt? well.... yuh wrong.

    1. I got all my games through specials and bundles so I got more than I bargained for.
    2. A good game 9 times out of 10 will be gobbled up by the market my point is the few games I would like to play on the Nintendo platform I dont want to buy a Wii or NX or whatever console just to play those.
    3. The extent to your logic is Nintendo goes to the sea of PC games due to their being a lot of PC games they will drown - that makes as much sense as "I a wearing a green shirt therefore I live in Belgium.
    4. You are telling me a Pokemon game on PC will be less likely to sell than asking people to buy a 3DS to play said game.........
    5. You make it seem as if this is Linstead market and all games companies are shouting, "Call of Duty ova ya so," "Assassins Creep cheap cheap," "Watch Dogs taste and buy" and no one will hear their little voice in the background shouting "$50 a pound fi Pokemon" If you make good games people will buy them provided they are properly promoted hell people will buy games that are properly promoted whether they are good or not.

    The point of my argument is Nintendo has strong brand positioning and more identifiable products than the other 2 ladies in the room.

    I think you are asking the wrong question. Yes, I have games that I will never play - ever in my Steam library but I have games that I have investing hundreds of hours in, like most gamers I pic which games are worth my time and which ones arent.

    Owen if you gave me an open world pokemon game I would go into hybernation - including from my lady.

    Well you just want you cannot have. I am sure there are many games like pokemon already on PC than you can play. I have not seen any at this e3 though.

    The Pokemon thing was just an example, the world is screaming at Nintendo that this is the way to go. Hopefully the NX will have some gimmick to grap the non-gamer segment like the Wii did.

    But it appears my hopes for a more powerful console have been dashed.

    As far as I am concerned, my PC is my console - boot straight into big picture mode, I wish there was some something that could work like big picture mode but would be able to combine Steam, Uplay and Origin games..........now there is an idea.....

    PC gaming aint dying - not by a long shot. Too many exclusives and too many genres

    Nintendo replay value never falls lol.

    When I'm ready to release a game I will use some of their tactics.

    Original Super Smash Bros. on the N64 was the most fun I've ever had in my childhood in the summer, as that's when mi and parries would link up and well smash through the summer and beyond .

    I wouldn't mind playing the new Smash Brothers online but consoles aint my thing anymore, so Brawlhalla will have to do.

    Brawlhala is fun. Isn't half as good as smash bros though.

    Smash bros and Mario kart are the reasons I have a Wiiu.
