The day Nintendo fall's is the day the industry does.

When Pokemon, Super Mario Bros., and Super Smash Bros. all lose popularity.

Never. Even if they fall as a video game company, they'll go on to make something else that's becoming popular.

Unfortunately, running such an absolutely massive company that has ties around the world is very expensive. All the research, technology, work and refinement of making new consoles is very expensive. Even the small games are expensive, let alone the large full 3D games, those are VERY expensive. And if Nintendo can't gain their money back and gain profits consistently, they are entirely screwed and doomed to circle the drain. It doesn't matter how much of a presence their history have had, that doesn't change the economy. There's no magical answer that will make them survive, it's on them, and so far, it's looking closer to grim than to good. Popularity of Mario, Pokemon, and Smash bros are sadly irrelevant, as if they're not doing enough for Nintendo, then they're not going to make it. Simple as that. History has shown that the greatest companies with lasting impacts can still go under and will, to say that Nintendo is 'just going to do it' is irrational.

^ I don't think it's all that doom and gloom tbqh. Nintendo has next to no debt and they still have stockpiles of cash, it would take them roughly 10 years to burn through all of their cash if they continued to have years like 2012 (whereas 2013 they saw a slight profit).
