Does Pokemon Go mark the end of Nintendo?

Does Pokemon Go an augmented reality smartphone game mark the end of Nintendo? (Releases 2016). Konami are all ready to jump ship, turfing out Kojima by his ear and cancelling Silent Hill, wtf were they thinking? Has the casual smartphone gaming audience increase, damaged console sales? Is this trend spelling the death to consoles allowing the PC to dominate the market? Is that why the PC market is worth more than all the console sales combined this year? What do you think?

  • Nah I don't think it's the end of Nintendo but it's possible that their mobile division will explode. It has a lot of potential. Makes sense for them honestly to pull out whether I like it or not. They were making more money in other divisions and I believe the CEO is one of the groups that are pushing for legalizing gambling in Japan so it would make sense it switch from gaming to pachinko. Not really except for Japan. Console sales are down significantly across the board for all consoles sold there. Mobile is a huge industry in Japan and it will continue to dominate there. Nah consoles will still have a place even if the numbers shift more to PC. Convince, or the illusion of convince, sells.
