Nintendo is gaming, Sony/Microsoft are questionable.

SONY is the company that takes care of the majority of my gaming needs. The Playstation Brand is arguably SONY's biggest branch and has been the backbone of their profits for many year. It wasn't until recently that they were having the profitability issues they have now.

Constantly reminding about they plan to keep each system on the market for as long as possible. Willing to lose big to establish technology for not just now but future systems. Focusing on creating new IP's each gen rather than relying on the old to carry the system. Nintendo may care more about gaming, but IMO SONY has showed just as well IF NOT MORE than Nintendo that they're in this industry for the long haul.

That's good enough for me.

Yeah, the company that develops less games, sells less both hardware and software,  acknowledges there hardware is difficult to work with,  now suddenly rushing out there secound attempt at a motion control sounds like a company that sure got its plans all worked out for the long run and whats best for the industry *sarcasm*  

To say Sony have done more now than Nintendo right now with the PS3 than Nintendo has with the Wii is just well...silly.

For years, SONY has been putting out the same amount and often more console games than Nintendo. Look it up. This year is the first time I've seen SONY published games down to so little. "Easy to work with" hardware wasn't their focus and they admitted that. They were more focused on establishing hardware for the future.

That "second attempt at motion control" isn't rushed... it's been in development since a few years after the release of the a PS2. There are video's on youtube dating back to b4 the wii controller was even announced which show early prototypes in action. SONY's a large company. They have tech like this always in R&D. The only thing that can be said is that the success of the wii could have encouraged them to actually release to product instead of trash the idea. Make no mistake, it's not rushed or just a quickly put together rip-off.

As for best for the industry, when did I say that?? I said they were setting themselves up for a long future in the gaming market. I also don't get your last line.... Was that not directed at me like the rest of your post??? I didn't say that. I do think it's true however and you're looking at it the wrong way. I think you missed my point entirely. I'm not comparing Nintendo to SONY at all like you were.
