Nintendo 3DS - A Broken Business Model?
- mr_eel 16y agoWhat a load of horse pucky. The only notable thing is the decline of sales of DS software, which could be attributed to the DS nearing it's end of life. In a market where physically distributed games continue to make money hand over fist, this kind of article is pure hyperbole. That digital distribution is the future seems self evident, but that doesn't mean that the current market is under immediate threat. The article also fails to mention that Nintendo already have their own digital distribution. Admittedly under developed, but they obviously aware of the shift in the market.
- Setsuna 16y agoThat was my reaction too, apparently the author thinks that iPhone games == DS games. It's also like saying that since DSi can play music stored in SD cards, Nintendo is a threat to iTunes.
