Double standard much?

How is that double standard? Did the way I mentioned it hurt you somehow?

Nintendo admitted themselves that they don’t want to compete with the others on the same front. History speaks for itself. Nintendo couldn’t keep the pace with Sony when it comes to home consoles, so they seek to differentiate themselves (from what was once their original videogame market) in order to remain relevent.

The only market that has always worked wonders for them is the handheld market, where Sony only offered one real respectable contender with the PSP. So it’s only natural that they’d try to capitalize on that to remain relevent as a console manufacturer.

I own all three consoles, why would my feelings be hurt?

 

I call it a double standard because your comment was an obvious jab at Nintendo that had nothing to do with the OP.  Ok cool, you made a funny.

 

But then someone makes the exact same comment about Sony not being able to compete with Nintendo portables, and you call them out as butthurt...what?

 

What you have just shown is that it is ok to call Nintendo out on their fumbling of some past dedicated home consoles, but it is not ok to call Sony out on their failings in the portable market.  That my dear friend, is a double standard.
