TalkBack / RE:Nintendo Reports Profit Despite Low GameCube Sales
« on: August 05, 2003, 02:54:19 PM »
Nintendo has a lot of money, have sold a lot of GBAs, and has a lot of GameCube inventory.  One of these is not good for the company.

In a quarterly financial statement, Nintendo is reporting that it has made a profit of ¥11.5 billion ($95 million) in the April-May-June period, almost all in part to the skyrocketing sales of the Game Boy Advance.  Oddly enough, this is the first time that Nintendo has disclosed its quarterly earnings report, normally waiting until the end of the year before revealing any of its financials.


In this three month span, 3.24 million GBAs and GBA SPs were sold worldwide.  That's all well and good, but in comparison to the 80,000 GameCubes sold in the same period, it's causing Nintendo's investors to worry.  The company is sticking to its goal of six million systems sold before the end of March 2004, but many feel that if Nintendo can't get rid of its excessive inventory of systems before Christmas, it won't get rid of them.


Analysts believe that a GameCube price drop is in Nintendo's near future if it hopes to reach its target of six million.  Still, Nintendo does hold a small margin over the Xbox in worldwide sales, with 9.6 million GCs and 9.4 million Xboxes sold worldwide.

Nintendo Gaming / Mario Kart LAN
« on: April 23, 2003, 09:48:11 AM »
u basically need a broadband adaptor (modem) for each of ur gamecubes, then u connect each of them through the ethernet cable (plz correct me if i'm wrong, i'm pretty sure i'm not)

but for this Mario Kart game, u'll also need two copies of the game (one for each system), i also think two TVs (each system will be hooked up to a serperate TV)

having 8-player split screen on one TV is useless...heh

and no, u will not be able to play someone over a distance (that would be WAN [wide area network]) unless u get online through gamespy

Nintendo Gaming / Will the big N merge (OR BUY)?
« on: April 20, 2003, 09:26:11 AM »
i agree w/ bullseye.......nintendo DOES make a lotta $$$, especially off that "playstation" patent issue thing w/ sony...nintendo will probably never have to merge or buy another company, they own 99% of the handheld market in the US and 97% in japan

microsoft will probably have to BUY smaller companies to makeup for its lack of (good) first party titles......"OK GUYS LET'S GO PLAY MS FLIGHT SIMULATOR ON MY XBOX!!!!!!!!!1111111111"
