Im wondering what your take an the ds is then. The psp was supposed to be a better console, better graphics, games on cd. Yet the ds has humbled it. Why?
could it be that gamers arent as exited by graphics as you say. I own a ds as well as a wii. not because they are made by nintendo but they are different.
Ps3 is the ps2 with prittier graphics. the 360. same as the xbox.
Why the HD assumption that everybody wants it and that in 12 months nintendo will release wii 2. they cant make enough of the wii now. Even if the wii does have a massive fall in popularity nintendo can reduce the price much more than its competitors due to it costing less to produce. This will increase the popularity of the console again.
different coloured wiis. again not to important but history shows when it happens products fly of the shelf. Nintendo has all the bases covered. |
The PSP has a rubbish battery life, terrible controls and is too big to be truly portable. The DS has a great user interface. Explained here: http://www.bruceongames.com/2007/10/02/the-future-it-is-all-a-gesture/ It also has some great software that appeals to a very wide demographic. It has had no real competition so has done very well. The future competition to DS is more likely to come from iPod/iPhone than it is from Sony. |
The user interface and games that appeal to a wide demographic apply to Wii as well |
Yes, but the Wii has technically far superior competition in the PS3 and 360.
If you actually read what I posted you will see that on the DS I said: "It has had no real competition so has done very well."
Also you have no understanding of games if you do not understand the importance of AI and physics.
Have you ever wondered why so many PS3 and 360 games aren't ported over to the Wii? It is because the Wii doesn't have the horsepower to run them. The Wii is really last generation with a cool interface. That is why Nintendo make so much profit from it, it is just so much further behind the bleeding edge of technology than the PS3 and 360 so it is far, far cheaper to make.
