That being to offer the same experience at a substantially lower price, releasing a system before the competition (likely in 2011), and to continue to come up with new ways to make Xbox Live more compelling. |
That would fit Microsoft's strategy to a T. They're already trying to head off the Wii.
The problem, however, is that nobody quite seems to understand exactly why Nintendo is succeeding. That's why very few of the endless arrays of waggle-party-games have reached platinum levels, that's why nobody else can quite get the hype and the recognition in this day and age. Until Sony and Microsoft solve this puzzle, they won't be able to do what Nintendo has done.
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
