Look, we know things look pretty bad
for Nintendo at this very moment. The Wii U saw a slow 2013 that ended
in new next-gen systems totally overshadowing it. Worse yet, Nintendo
announced it was posting its third annual loss as a company, and
that the Wii U sold only 2.8 million units during the last fiscal year
(which is a third less than the 9 million it originally anticipated).
Even with the 3DS doing well, things aren’t too sunny at the house of
Mario, and people are looking for drastic fixes to its problems.
But if Nintendo is looking for a way out of its current mess, its executives might do well to look back on its 100 years of history. The company has faced numerous challenges in the past, several that looked like they’d tank the company outright. Think things couldn't be worse? Well, you're wrong--they have been. Let's take a look.
