Actually he's very respectful to sega, but he notes that Sony playstation was not a disruption |
I cant see how one wouldn't consider PS1 a disruption. The aspect of "make money on software, not hardware" sony introduced put atleast 5 other companies out of the hardware business (Sega, 3DO, Atari, SNK, Phillips CDI).
In any case, since Malstrom is always writing about nintendo, Id love to see him write an interesting article about how nintendo is using their best R&D teams to think of ways to expand the casual ocean...while having much smaller teams work on games for the hardcore.
We all know its true...why else would we be getting an outsourced Metroid game, a DS port of a Super Mario bros game and Mario Gallaxy 2...which Miyamoto himself said is mostly composed of ideas that didn't make it in to part 1.
