The more that I look at Apple in terms of technology, the more that I recognize that they got it right with such items as the iPad dock. Along with added peripherals such as the iPhone case, I think that the company realizes what people want and they're not exactly hesitant to give it to them. In terms of Nintendo, a company of which I'm an enthusiastic follower, they don't exactly have the same mindset and I think a few changes can fix that. Looking at such things as the iPhone charger, Nintendo can take cues from these Apple gadgets.

The efficiency of an iPhone charger, depending on which one you get, makes for efficient use to charge your gadget. Kindred to the iLuv iPhone charger, the case can be easily carried around and its ease of use is very apparent. It's no wonder why people turn to Apple, since they streamline things to make operation easier for the consumer. The iPhone charger also helps to keep an iPad motionless so that you can easily use it at home with perhaps some added apps. Click here to check out some iPhone charging solutions.

Apple seems to have its finger on the pulse of digital marketing, not just in terms of peripherals but digital applications as well. As someone who doesn't frequent Apple products as much as he probably must, I'm envious at just how many cheaply-priced programs there are to select from. They are discounted, which makes them even more attractive in this economically-sensitive world. It's no wonder why the company has gained the user base that it has.

Nintendo needs to get a leg up on the competition and whether or not they would like to admit it, their competition is Apple. Both of them are in a handheld market, to certain degrees, and prices have to be looked at, first. I don't find it very beneficial to the consumer to see one game marketed for about a dollar on one app store and then have the same price inflated ten times over on Nintendo's side of the tracks. People don't want to pay more than they should for anything, be it video game or otherwise.

As much as I love Nintendo as a gamer, and I truly do, the company itself makes some questionable decisions. It's almost like they are stuck in the 1990's, which makes them difficult to acclimatize to the conventions of present-day technology. People have a quick and efficient mindset when it comes to such products, which is what Apple seems to understand. Despite Nintendo's insistence on staying its own course, it wouldn't destroy them to take a few cues from Apple.
