Message: [QUOTE="Zerpina, post: 168888, member: 51053"] [ATTACH type="full" width="457px" alt="potato.gif"]56368[/ATTACH] [automerge]1744250096[/automerge] While I get the sentiment that Nintendo has historically bounced back from less than stellar consoles, I think it’s important to recognize that the video game landscape is constantly evolving, and the challenges they face today are different from those of the past. The sheer competition in the gaming market is more intense now than ever, Nintendo can’t rely solely on its legacy titles like Pokémon to carry them through. The gaming audience has diversified, and many gamers now are looking for more advanced hardware and an expansive library of third-party support, which has often been a struggle for Nintendo. Nintendo’s future will hinge not just on its franchises but also on its ability to adapt . Relying on nostalgia may not be enough to ensure survival Don't get me wrong, I am no fan of the big three locked-down OS machines Those are really good. I don't know about the Beelink, but if you aren't looking for console-bound games, they are fine. Just make sure you know what you can and can't run on them. They, like a laptop, have limits. Though mini PCs are basically little packages of TNT nowadays and do well as <shudders>, Windows desktops, or even Batocera machines. Hell, I have an old USFF Dell OptiPlex 7010 here now (a pair was given to me), and it will run with the i7 and 8 GB of DDR3 (1600 MHz, mind you), PS2/DC up to 1080p with a lot of upscaling and tweaks turned up. The Wii is doable if you don't mind the native resolution (you can do some anti-aliasing, 4x I think), and it runs fine. [ATTACH type="full" width="274px" alt="coffee7.gif"]56373[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
