Leggete con attenzione queste parole prese da un articolo di CNNMoney (scritte da Geoff Keighley, quello di GTTV):
Some of Iwata's resolve to stay the course may come from the cautionary tale of Sega, the gamemaker that posed such a threat to Nintendo a decade ago. After a protracted period in third place in the console market behind Nintendo and Sony, Sega shut down its hardware division altogether in 2001 to focus solely on software. It has steadily lost market share ever since. Haunted by that specter, Iwata repeatedly vows he'll never give up the console business.
A joint venture or partnership may be Nintendo's only hope of reversing its decline. But all hinting aside, Iwata couldn't pull off a dramatic rescue without fundamentally shifting the company's values. Nintendo isn't likely to take any genuine risks that could jeopardize its existing business (it's still the world's second-largest game publisher) or dramatically deplete its reserves. So no matter what kind of partnership Nintendo forms, its main business will likely be videogames--still profitable, but shrinking in relation to competitors. A humbling fate, indeed, for a company that once conquered the world.
Vi sembrano attuali?

Comunque a forza di "dooomed" prima o poi ci si azzecca?
