I must also point out another thing that is hurting not only Nintendo, but also other console video game manufacturers and even PC and Mac game makers and that is that video games that are totally dedicated to them are
actually on a downward trend and the only things that are saving them are emulated titles from yesteryear, emulated import titles from yesteryear, independent developers making low cost games that are essentially DLC to your console or computer, and the massive rise of casual games and pay - to - play games.
