Nintendo's Record Year: 150% Jump in Operating Profit

[EdenMaster]

That's not true, DJ. If it sells well and then Blu-Ray takes over the world, eventually because of game and Blu-Ray movie income, it will turn a profit. Someday.

That is the biggest "if" I have ever seen. Seriously. I can't see the top of it because the clouds block my view.

I cant see a single scenario where Blu-Ray comes out of this alive. It baffles the mind, think about it. Why are you going to pay for a new (and thus, expensive) peice of hardware and movies (not to mention <i>REBUYING</i> those you already own), for a format which offers only marginal improvement on the current standard? DVD surpassed VHS because it was superior by leaps and bounds, with menus, scene skipping, extra features and all that. Blu-Ray is basically DVD+. A format that does have it advantages, but ones that the normal market doesn't really care about. There are always those hardcore fans (lazy, I'm sure you're one), who demands nothing but the best video and sound quality possible. That is the minority, though. Most people just want to watch a movie, and they have a DVD player perfectly capable of doing just that.

Blu-Ray is a joke.
