Nes - proprietry storage format Snes - proprietry storage format N64- proprietry storage format GC - proprietry storage format Wii - proprietry storage format Wii2 - a competitor's storage format What the hell kind of pattern recognition is that? |
Blu-ray isn't "a competitor's storage format", it's owned by a consortium of companies (just like DVD, which GC/Wii's disc format is based off of). And Sony isn't even the top rights holder, Matsushita is (who also developed GC/Wii's disc format). Pretty easy to see where this is going...
Sony also held a stake in Matrix Semiconductor, who's 3DM is the format used for DS cards. That didn't keep Nintendo from also investing in the company and using the format (which is now owned by SanDisk)...
