Wow, I'm surprised there is such opposition for this idea. I think it would be the best thing to happen to gaming since full motion video. Nintendo is doing horrible these days imo. I read an article on IGN yesterday with a statement saying "first does not always mean best," it was some chick from nintendo referring to online play. I laughed at that because it's the exact opposite of Nintendo's behaviour with things like the DS as a good example. They are stressing innovation so much, yet they refuse to accept the growing trends until it would absolutely kill them to ignore it.
If they went the way of SEGA they could still make plenty of money off their "kid market" by selling the mario titles cross platform. They'd probably also make a killing by releasing a set of classic games (like the sonic collection, but with mario etc) for the PS2 and XBOX (or next gen). All the older gamers that didn't bother with a gamecube would go crazy over such nostalgia.
I could go on and on, I just don't see any downside to this whatsoever.
