Had an idea...

So, I remember hearing a while ago that Nintendo sales have been dropping drastically, and between Xbox and Playstation, Nintendo is falling behind. So what can Nintendo do to get back on the market?

First, Nintendo should really look into online game-play. I know it does exist, but it's not smooth AT ALL. I tried playing Super Smash Bros online, and the servers were laggy as anything and it wasn't fun. Dear Nintendo, if you're going to enable online game-play, make sure it works smoothly, otherwise it's a fail.

Second, make more games that cater to adults. Nintendo is now being recognized as a company that caters to the young-ins. I worked at a daycare and let's just say it was FILLED with kids bringing in DS's. There was ONE child who brought in a PSP, and he was the black-sheep out of all of them. Is it bad that Nintendo has games for kids? No, of course not, but it feels like Nintendo is only catering to a younger age group. The only reason why people are still staying true to Nintendo is for their classic game series, Zelda, Mario, Supersmash, ETC.

Finally, if these things don't work, there's a drastic option that I have thought up. Nintendo should team up with X-Box or Playstation. I can hear you all screaming in your heads, "WAIT WHAT?!" But think about it. How cool would it be to see Nintendo team up with either X-Box or Playstation? It's a mind-blowing concept, yes, but I think it would make Nintendo a lot more money and would keep their name living on. At this rate, they're just falling behind in the video-game arms race, but if they bring their popular titles over to an X-Box console or to Playstation, they would gain a lot more recognition.

Crazy thoughts...A bit of a rant for me, hey maybe I'll make a video on that? But anyways...C'mon Nintendo, step it up.

Let me know what you think.
