@monkbent saying Nintendos doing well because it has billions in cash isn't exactly true when its revenue, income & share price are sinking.

@kirkburgess yeah. I think Nintendo is in trouble. But I also don't think the solution is obvious either. -
@monkbent Thoughts about Nintendo moving to an amazon type model where it controls the key ecosystem elements it's best at, outsources OS? -
@darkarconio no, they're as vertical as it gets.
-
@monkbent I guess they view OS as a core competency, even if we don't think that's their strong suit from outside - like pre OSX Apple? -
@darkarconio the OS is unimportant in the context of gaming
-
@monkbent Except isn't a huge problem for nintendo that mobile OSes makes the OS matter, cause more general devices are more useful? -
@darkarconio right - the problem is general purpose devices like the iPhone have "good enough" gaming for people who previously bought DS

@monkbent I would buy a $100 nintendo built iPhone case with inbuilt controls in a heartbeat if they published games on iOS at 3DS prices...Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
