| Mr Khan said: I'd put odds at 45/30/25 Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo. Microsoft's got the most to "prove" after a year of a sense of "inevitability" surrounding PS4's dominance. They need to show this year that they are playing to win, or cement their also-ran status for the generation. Sony always does at least "okay". They know what gamers want and give it to them, even if they sometimes bog it down with tripe like Wonderbook. Holding them back this year is a raft of hints that 2014 really isn't going to be their best year in terms of software and that 2015 might be bigger, so even if they have super announcements, they might be dampened by a lackluster lineup for Q4, though we'll see. Meanwhile, i'm confident Nintendo will have a more compelling lineup (at least as a publisher) than Sony for *this* calendar year, at least, but we have to factor in Nintendo's ability to screw up key game reveals (like last year and Super Mario 3D World, where there was great confusion initially about whether it was even a Wii U game, compared to the October 2013 direct which showed how beautiful and distinct the game really was) |
I agree with the M$ quote. I think that they have allot to make up to when it comes to us gamers. But can they show enough to get gamers to buy their system is what im concerned about.
I have a feeling Nintendo will wow. Zelda U is on everyones minds, and if they can show some solid ingame fottage and a release date, it might just get intering.
