Microsoft makes a console with a really really high failure rate, so much so that many people are on their 4th 360s, is that not dicking over the consumers???? I think it's a lot worse than what the PS3 does in that area.
Let's move on to Nintendo.... They delay a gamecube game, the new Zelda long enough to launch it with their new console to essentially force people who want the new Zelda that was ready on the Gamecube to buy the new console to play it and for a while there was no info as to when the GC version of Zelda was coming until Nintendo realized they will leave money on the table by not releasing that and they did. Dicking the consumer maybe? Microsoft goes ahead and charges 100 dollars for a 20 gb hard drive while charing 40 bucks or so for the tiny memory card, does that make any sense? or is that not dicking the consumer? Now they release a 120 gb hard drive for 180$, once more overpricing it to the max... Nintendo Somehow isn't able to ramp up production and the amount of Wiis sold per month is not going up month to month, aren't they ramping up the production to meet the high demand? Or are they not doing that to keep a demand going for their new console over time rather than selling many more in one month. Dicking the consumer maybe? |
Obviously you missed the entire point of my post.
