Gamecube profitted guys... it's not like it lost 7plus billions...
There's a possibility... but it's not probable. There'll be a PS4... just not with this name. It'll be Sony's Wii, a different name, a different image.

how does gamecube compare to PS3.wasn't gamecube profiting from start,it just wasn't succesfull but it was selling on profit.
PS3 has lost alot but it was for blu-ray and blu-ray will reward for the next 10 years with PS4 and other devices
Also PS4 won't be Sony's Wii,you think they developed blu-ray for that. People will again embrace the hardcore games just that PS3's price was so high that they had to go for the cheap WII. PS4 will be cheap so people wouldn't have to compromise

I don't think you understand why the wii sells. It sells because it's mainstream, like the PS2 and PS1 before it.
|
Yes it is mainstream but not just because of games but also because of price
PS3 could put out the same games but it was triple what average income people buy.
if PS1 and PS2 were mainstream then PS3 is too.Whats the difference?
Mainstrem just means adopted by wide number of people.If PS3 was $250 at launch no ways Wii would have been on top
|
I seriously doubt that. The wii is selling because of the games. The price made it acceptabel for the mainstream, but the games sold it. People buy consoles for the games.
The wii-series had the broadest appeal of any videogames. That's why the wii is selling. Even if the PS3 was the same in price, it wouldn't be in games' appeal.
|
if Wii is selling because of games the why didn't N64 and GC.They had great Nintendo games.
You really think that a successor of PS2 the highest selling console with the momentum the PS brand had wouldn't have outsold Wii if they were the same price.
And you said PS2 and PS1 sold because they were mainstream,in what sense?PS3 is the same just that it was expensive.Then what do you mean by PS2 and PS1 being mainstream
People jsut got on the WII cause it was cheap and then other people followed them.
AND you were saying WII was mainstream like PS2 and PS1.PS1 and PS2 are totally different from WII but still they sold well

Consoles sells because of games. That first. Price comes after that. The wii has the games which appeal the most. That's a fact. It's games can be played by anyone, which is key to it's (mainstream) succes.
The PS1 and PS2 are the same as the Wii. You (and most PS-fans) just don't want to see it. The biggest sign of mainstream succes is: shovelware. The console which appeals the most, gets all the shovelware.
PS1: 95% shovelware.
PS2: 95% shovelware.
Wii: 95% shovelware.
The consoles with the most showelvare on it, is the most mainstream console. If not, it wouldn't have the shovelware.
The shovelware comes with the big succes. The wii - even with crappy 3rd party support - sells the most software. That's why it's mainstream, it can push the crap. Just like the PS2, and PS1 before it.

rolf.......................PS1,PS2 got shovelware...hahahahahahahah
PS1,PS2 got the best games in their gen.GT,FF,MGS,RE,GOW,GTA,BULLY,etc.
They also got alot of mediocre games but that was because their market share was so high and everybody had it that devs didn't care about developing on other consoles.
Wii the best selling console of this gen only gets shovelware and not the FF,MGS,RE,GTA.PS1 and PS2 got both but WII is just a lost hop for devs cause their games don't sell
"Crappy third sell most software"- name one third party game which sold more than mw2,gta4,AC1 & 2,etc.Nowhere near the most
Wii is crappy at selling third party software,only nintendo and other casual games sell on it.
PS1 and PS1 didn't have shit like Wii fit,sports.And PS1 and PS2's main push was because of hardcore titles like FF7,FF10,GT games,GTA,MGS.
wtf are you talking abt?
Nintendo's name had been damaged with N64 and GC.Playstation brand was no.1 and everyone knew about it and if it were to release at $250 it would havve trounced wii
