You know, sometimes I see a comment here or there complaining that Nintendo doesn’t have their games on Xbox or PlayStation. That they should just sell themselves to do that.

I would hate to see Nintendo go away. I love their gimmicky systems. I leads to interesting, innovative experiences. For example, I am very disappointed by how badly the Wii U flopped. There were some games that did cool stuff with the asymmetric gameplay and I would have loved to see more game developers try to come up with cool concepts for it.
