Nintendo’s Success – Can it last?

Over the past year Nintendo has had what will be one of its largest successes. The Nintendo Wii was a resounding success shipping over twenty three million units. The Wii is still a rare find in retail stores and its handheld counterpart the DS is selling at an incredible rate. Stock prices were up and optimism has been high at Nintendo.

However can Nintendo continue its success in the future? Looking back towards the Gamecube’s popularity overall compared to the Xbox and the PS2 you have to wonder. The largest problem Nintendo has faced is attaining third-party support from companies who can produce quality games.
