On the 15th of November, Nintendo will discontinue it's Gamecube and then shrink the machine down to a portable size to compete with the PSP.
There shall not be another home Nintendo format in the forseeable future, the N5 was in development but R&D has been suspended.
Huge BS? I think so... however i cant help but worry that their is some truth to all this...
Nintendo better not drop their home console line... i think this a load of crap though. Nintendo would not stop making home consoles. Didn't Iwata say that when they are out of the home console business they will stop making games all together? (meaning their never going to drop their consoles)...
HMMMMMM!!!
Actually its a big load of crap... how does this guy know all this when some the head honchos at NOA dont.

"he reported Sega was going to discontinue it's games on XBox, and that Final Fantasy XI was coming exclusively to XBox."

Nintendo is working on a new console, it is dubbed N5.

Everyone should harrass the dumba$$ who wrote this article. It's nothing more that corporate spin and fan-boy delusions.
Oh how I wait patiently for the next 5 years to go by. Things will be so different by then. I think everyone will be suprised. Nintendo will be one of the few survivors of the the next video game crash. I don't think I can say the same for some of the competition. In the end, I feel this is why articles like this are written. The competition is scared. No one stays on top forever. $ony's on it's way out and Microsoft has lost almost 3 Billion with further loses to come.
Truthfully, I shouldn't have responded to this BS thread. All it does is to help spread these lies. Thanks Mario, for posting this trash. ( a sarcassam detector, oh that's a real usefull invention.)

For those who don't know, fatbabies is the site where game industry dudes violate NDAs and say whatever they want anonymously. Lots of room for BS and lies, but like I said, there's cool and good info sometimes. Look back through some archives and see if you can find an awesome article they did comparing company's employee benefits. That was verrrrrrry interesting...

Also does anyone think that someone working for Nintendo would break an NDA to chat online with loners and fanboys? Seriously. Also, all the best secrets are kept in Japan. No one is going to jeapordise a well paying and difficult to aquire job just to brag online. I love how the idiot who wrote this so-called "insider info" started his LIE off by saying that he was "violating an NDA." What a laugh! (The author should have started with some trutfull, personal information like "I'm a 45 year old virgin who lives with his mom." Or the classic "I hate all other systems because I own only one." Or the best yet "I'm a loser who spends 24 hours a day online spreading lies to dumb people.")
Still, no true Nintendo fan should have even responded to this BS in the first place. I still don't know why I replied to this thread. Maybe because it just pissed me off that anyone could be so ignorant.
Or maybe I was just angry that a person who calls themself a Nintendo fan would bring this garbage to this forum. Seriously. Flame me all you wish, but this whole thread is trash.
I've said enough.

I do go on a bit. I can't live without passion, but seriously, you are the one who started this waste of space, aren't you? Like I said, why would a fan bother posting something like this in the first place?
This thread should never have been started.

First, he site that this "info" came from has NO rep. None. It has a handful of users and it hasn't been around all that long.
This is flat out untrue. It has actually been around a VERY long time, and its intended purpose is generally to air out some company's dirty laundry under a ninja guise. Sometimes some tardbucket might feel the need to send in something false, but seriously, pay attention, sometimes there's some real info there, particularly for the business/employment crew.

Read through some of the ridiculous threads and you will see what I mean. I'm not trying to say that I know it all or anything like that. It's just that site is full of crap and you would have to be BLIND not to see it.
Here's some sample thread; "Nintendo sucks," "Sony Rules," "Microsoft Sucks." It's the most dellusional fanboy garbage I have ever read. The threads read like they are writen by a 10 year old. It has NO rep outside of the feeble minds that ingest it's garbage.
As for you Piac, get over it.

I have MANY quiet supporters on this website who completely agree with me.
As for "Fatbabies.com" a quick domain name registration search reveals that the site is owned by a nobody with NO connection to the video game industry. In fact, if I were not afffraid of legal action, I would post the losers name in this thread. He's what I like to call a "$ony Nazi." A fanboy that is so rabid, that he owns only one console and has started a website just to trash the competition. He is a serious waste of life and his website is a serious waste of time.
I stand by what I said. Love me or hate me, I only speak the truth and I'm here to stay

This thread IS crap. The topics IS a lie. And I believe that I have the right to say so.
Mouse, you have s serious attitude problem. It's probably because you seem to be online 24/7.
Let me tell you something, hardcore Nintendo fans appreciate what I do. They just don't bother to argue with people like you.
I shook hands with Myamoto when most of you were in diapers. I met Ken "$ony Nazi" Kuturagi in Los Angeles before there even was a Playstation. I told Sam Tramiel that "Jaguar sucks." And at this years E3 I had an interesting conversation with Yuji Naka and his interpreter. I may not be an "industry insider," but I am well informed and intelligent enough to know that this topic is garbage.
Have a nice day

Any true Nintendo fan would be disgusted to have one such as AgentSeven counted among them, as am I.

I don't read their forums if that's what you're getting at.

And don't forget memory cards! Do you want to be paying 30-40 more bucks to get a memory card?(Like the PSP is doing)
