Nintendo is Learning from their mistakes? Really?

First off, you are the oldest video game company out there. Are you saying that after multiple handheld and console generations that you still don't understand your customers? People buy your products because of your first party software (Mario, Zelda, Kirby, StarFox, Donkey Kong). If they don't launch the Wii U with at least a few of their first party titles, the system will fail. The dismal performance of the 3DS proved that. You can't bring out your crappy first party games and try to beef up your 3rd party support, when most of your customers want the first party games. Perhaps the Vita will take over the handheld market in the fall. Also, the Wii U still has failed to impress mayb in the gaming press. We shall see what happens at the GDC and E3 in 2012. Nintendo needs to not focus on hardcore games. That ship has sailed. Focus on games that utilize motion controls, that made the Wii popular.
