Well nintendo has never gone in the red for it's costumers ?
and i'm sorry but nintendos things seem really over priced. with a lot of their products compaired to the actual value of it. Now i know that buisness is all about earning money in the end, but they don't seem to want to take a hit. Ever. And in some ways that is a good thing. But not in all ways. The motion thing might have cost them a little more but they could have implanted it, they even said they would but they chose not to do it in the end.

Nintendo probably do care for their customers in some ways, i'm not saying they don't but it certainly doesn't seem like they want to take any risks financially which might be understandable concidering they only make consoles and games, but you know.

Oh yeah and i know sony isn't doing this out of charity either. ..
BTW i blame poor grammer on lazy :P

Nintendo has never needed to go in the red, they engineer their products to be rather cheap to produce but powerful.  And honestly looking at your other post about Nintendo not offering the best hardware from the start you know nothing of the video game industry.  SNES was stronger then Gen, N64 stronger then PS1, and GC stronger then PS2. 

Now look at your comment here "Staude: nintendo "could" have done like certain other companys and made sure their customers got the best hardware they could offer for their money...

And i really believe that they chose not to because they would make more money, so when someone says "sony" as a company is a asshole, think about what nintendo makes you do."

It's a bit of a contradiction... it's amazing how Nintendo created much better hardware then the PS2 at a much lower cost and still never went in the red, they never had to cause they're good at business.  Sony doesn't go in the red for the customer they go in the red to make money off software, know how they do this?  Marketing to hype an above average game to make loads of profits.

Honestly I love Sony and their products but to have the blinders on like you do is just flat out wrong.

what are you talking about ? The wii isn't exacly what you would refere to as powerful, and if i remember right the gamecube launched after the ps2 ? i'm not sure, but it wasn't "that much more powerful" it had about 100 more mhz processor and a few other things. Not exacly record breaking. Another thing is that you say they've never needed to, yet they just said that making the good product would have probably sent them there at first with the wii, yet they werent willing to go there. That was my only point.
