Nintendo screwing up on the other hand... well, let's just say if Nintendo had stuck a CD-ROM drive in N64, there probably wouldn't even be a PlayStation 2. ;) |
I had to sign in just becuase this was so unresitable to responfd to literally spekaing
Sony were partnering with Nintendo to make the PlayStation. At CES Sony announced that they were making the PlayStation with Nintendo. It was meant to be a add on for the SNES to accept CD'S and Sony was going to make a all in one console, but Sony would get profits from it. But Nintendo was talking to Philips behind Sony's back and after Sony talked at CES, Nintendo back stabbed Sony and announced thy aren't working with Sony hours later.
Ken kutaragi, the guy behind the PS1, went to Norio Ohga and told him about it. He told him that Sony should make their own console, and Norio Ohga said "DO IT"
They then created the PSX, but scraped it and waited for the competition. They then released the PS1.
