Top 10 Things Nintendo should do to be No. 1 again!

nintendo logo
Ah, Nintendo. You're like an old friend to us, and watching your progress is like having to put down a childhood pet. You used to be king of the world with the SNES, and the N64 still had some of the greatest games known to mankind, but now, you're just the embarrassment of the console race.

Ironically, your console is number 1, but there's one thing that's missing that was in all of your old consoles. Good games.

Sure, the parents and politicians are eating up the Wii, but you know as well as I do that if you fail to give us some better games, you'll lose the entire audience of the gamers who have been with you for the last 20+ years. And there's more of us than there are of fictional families who gather around the television to play WiiSports.

So with that being said, I'm not going to rant too much (upon rereading this blog to check for spelling errors, I realised this was a complete lie. Rants ahead), I'm going to suggest some things that could possibly help you to reclaim your title, and make you not only the number 1 selling console on the market, but also the number one most loved.
