Nah, they'll go with something like "Live is a superior service", and then list all of the things that Live can do which the PSN can't. Which isn't a lot. Then they'll make fun of Sony for trying to sell virtual furniture, and claim every game on the PSN is crap. They're getting really predictable now. And notice how Nintendo just sits, watches these two feuding, and chuckles. |
Nintendo is probably too busy counting its money to notice what Sony and Microsoft are doing about online services, and their words. They barely have ANY online anything, except for a few nice perks in the Wii, and WiiWare and Virtual Console games to download. Oh, you also get a browser to surf the Internet with, but that is about it. In other words, Nintendo doesn't care about what others do with its online offering. It offers what it wants with each game that comes out. Like Animal Crossing and the room mic. One has to realize they don't care when you don't get a user name, but a 16 digit code (grouped in 4 sets of 4 numbers) as your ID. It is like Nintendo doesn't care if ET phones home or its friends call ET or ET calls its friends.
Would be nice for Nintendo to chime in with some sales numbers and tell them to shut up like a parent breaking up some kids that are squabbling. Put it in a press release or something here.
