It seems all they ever did was mishandle the whole thing. They weren’t following the leader, but they were also not being followed. They were like the kid in school that sits in the corner and eats paste.

It feels kind of good actually to see Nintendo taking the lead and watching the big boys scramble after them. They don’t have Sony and Microsoft’s resources, so they need to be different somehow. They may not be so “different” when Sony and Microsoft gets done, but at least they can be first.
