That's because the OP titles is only mentioned " Nintendo Tops 750 Million HardwareSo He only compare it using hardware. Which is why he is very impressive with Nintendo "HARDWARE SALES " . After that you are offended by his post mentioned Sony even with 6 consoles generations also achieve a great feat , then you trying to downplay Sony using strawman argument by asking software sales, which is silly because OP are discussing hardware sales but putting soft sales just as bonus. Not a primary discussion. If you want to be fair to counter his argument just bring more hardware sales discussion without bringing software sales discussion. |
He said: "Well obviously Sony's 1st party software sales pales in comparison to Nintendo so no need to add them genius. However I do want to add that Sony this generation with the playstation 4 have been reaching Nintendo's first party sales (or close to) with titles such as GoW, Spiderman, UC4, LoU, and Horizon. Obviously these IPs wont reach Mario and Pokemon sales status and may never will but guess what? They dont need to. Nintendo needs to live off their first party titles due to their lack of 3rd party titles while Sony has a strong mixture of BOTH 1st and 3rd party titles. You take away Nintendo's 1st party title, they'd be left with nothing! You take away Sony's 1st party titles, sony's console will still have Call of Duty, GTA, Elder Scrolls, Fifa, 2K, Fallout, etc. And these titles sells in the 20million+ which Nintendo misses out on which is why nintendo gamers are left with no choice but to purchase mario, zelda, pokemon etc. However I do understand the switch has been gaining 3rd party support recently though not at the level of Sony and Micro but that will definetely change as next gen arrives next year with Cyberpunk, GTA6, Elder Scrolls 6 releasing next gen. Im sure if we were to tally up overall software sales Sony would come out top. Its important to remember games like CoD, Fifa, 2k which releases every year about 20 million each and GTA V which has sold more than 100 million, Sony gets a piece of that money due to platform royalties. Nintendo will never get a piece of that money because they dont have Cod and GTA although they do have Fifa and 2k but they dont sell well on Nintendo platforms. So anyway my point is Nintendo's 1st party sells well because they typically have no competition with 3rd party because well theres barely any 3rd party titles on Nintendo consoles lol."
He clearly did read the op post and decided not to put Sony software number here since it would make Sony look very bad in comparison with Nintendo. He also didn't say that he replied back to just the thread title like you mentioned, then why did you try to stand up for him in the 1st place? Well, i think everyone here already knew the answer.

Why do you even engage a conversation with HoangNhatAnh? Don't you see that's exactly what he wants? He breathes negativity. |
If only some Sony fans didn't even come here just to play down Nintendo achievement, then i would't have to do it.
"He breathes negativity" Sure, only me did it in a thread about Nintendo hardware sales. You should tell that to Sony fans too
