Someone needs to count those pixels. Looks dire to me. It shows that the hardcore audience is fickle, they've probably moved on to drinking whisky or some other hardcover activity.

You seem to have a strong animosty towards the supposed "hardcore". Do you not like it as a concept or are you just being obtuse? As a core gamer myself, I take offense to comments isolating me to a stereotype of children-hating drunks.

Personally, I like Paul's posts, because he is returning all the dismissive statements we've heard over the last years in regards to Nintendo hardware and software. Perhaps it helps some people to see how disgusting stereotyping can be when they are on the receiving side.

I don't buy that revenge motive stuff. Eye for an eye leaves one guy with one eye and then he won't be able to play 3D games. It's a cruel future this behavior brings.

I loled at this :))

 

OT: I think there was a pixel count that prooved that the Vita is overtracked in the EU by over 100k, never the less, it seems to be getting some attention lately. Letys hope, that by January there will be 1.5 million units in the EU in gamers hand. Not a huge achievment, but a start

I'm not saying that all hardcore gamers hate children and work hoes. Just like not all nintendo fans are retarded children and the mothers who drive them to soccer. Take rol for example, he seems to not be retarded and is probably at least in his early 20s.

Europe likes Sony branded products in general don't they? PS3 also sells best there.

The Vita was selling just as bad here (if not worse) as it was everywhere else up until september. 



I see VITA commercials all the time when watching Champions League (BVB FTW), other than that there are only ps3 commercials.

You must've missed this thread then => http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=149524&page=1#

Honestly, I know what you mean. BUT, if you want that, you have to also admit that non-Nintendo fans, especially Sony fans, have abused of stereotypes to shame Nintendo buyers with all kinds of needless terms. What Paul is doing is nothing compared to what Nintendo fans received.

This is probably the worst aspect to come out of such discussion. Thinknig like this expressed by you and others is a justification, but what people like Paul are doing is breeding more of the same. The trespasses of the past are no longer relevant and people shouldn't be attempting to blindly stab the wind in retaliation years down the road. It is an utter lack of justice to assume it serves a purpose. Memories can be exaggerated and emotions can amplify them. Actions like you describe attempt to punish everyone instead of dealing with things on a case by case. Imagine if you were charged for a crime your brother committed after he fled the country, or served a sentance your late grandfather had.

All this does is give groups a bad name. If targeted at Sony, than some perceive Sony as such, but at the same time spoken by Nintendo gives Nintendo a bad name. In return others might use it as justification to retaliate in their own way down the road and it just perpetuates a system of emotional backlash, void of intellection discourse, and severing concepts of decency among us.



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

Welcome to how it feels to be a Nintendo gamer. ;)

Okay, I understand what you're saying. I'm just telling you how some see it, and keeping it real. If you think I'm indecent to think that, think of all those who are not saying it.

But I appreciate your post.

I commit to help break the cycle, and if you see people still behaving like that today against Nintendo fans, I expect you to confront them just as boldly. Otherwise I will see your words as biased.



Wow! Looking at sales from last week, the 3DS is the system selling really well in europe. 100k in one week... impressive!
