So, who made the PS3, Nintendo? They are the only company in the industry that JUST does video games. They are NOT, however, the only company in the industry building/creating/manufacturing consoles/games. I think that's what YOU fail to compute.

Also, Nintendo not worrying about Sony did what for them? If your logic works, they were absolutely man-handled by Sony because of it, and STILL wiped the floor with Sega. Like I said, research bud, it works....

All I said was that they were the only video game company making video game consoles I never said they were the only company period making consoles.

Sony only rivaled Nintendo as a platform company but not as a video game company. But Sega on the other hand rivaled them in both departments.

* facepalm *

Ok, your first sentence is basically saying that Nintendo is THE ONLY VIDEO GAME COMPANY making video game consoles. What you're saying is, Microdsoft and Sony aren't "video game" companies. If you're talking STRICTLY, I agree, Nintendo is STRICTLY a gaming company. However, Microsoft and Sony ARE video game companies, they just do OTHER things as well.

Now, to your second set of sentences: Sony rivaled Nintendo as a software AND a hardware company, and still continue to do so, as does Microsoft. COMPETITORS are people who rival you in the same market/field/set of business. Nintendo has two of them, period, end of story. Sega was also a rival company, who weren't as financially equipped (obviously) to take on a company like Microsoft, Sony, or Nintendo. For the past decade, Sony has beaten Nintendo in amount of software on the market, (that is how many pieces of software were on the market between the PS1 and PS2 that ONLY graced those consoles), brand recognition, and hardware sales. Nintendo has LARGE sellers within their first party studios, in fact the LARGEST, but it doesn't mean that Microsoft and Sony's offerings are chopped liver, as you seem to be implying.

I'm tired of this immobile, useless debate. You've been given accounts from all sides, yet still choose to ignore the facts, which are:

Sony - A video game/music/TV/phone/Electronics Company

Microsoft - A Video Game/PC Software Company

Nintendo - A (STRICTLY - NOT "THE ONLY") Video Game Company

ALL are Video Game manufactureres that make their own software and ARE competitors within this industry. DEAL. WITH. IT!!!!!

Honestly, CGI!

You keep telling people not to bother arguing with him, follow your own advice!
