lol at everyone wanking on nintendo r&d ms blows about any software company out of the water when it comes to r&d they have stuff in the pipeline for the next 20 years.... give me a break

I guess that's why microsoft basically bought the technology & idea for Kinect from the Israeli developer PrimeSense. I wouldn't exactly call that internal r&d.


they provide the 3d sensing tech.... you're basically telling me michelin invented the car because they made the first tire..... i ain't saying nintendo is a shit company..... they pretty much made the market what it is today..... but somebody saying that nintendo has a better r&d or even can afford the r&d MS has.... has no clue of what they are talking about.... heck even apple is nowhere close....

Microsoft is a true copy & paste company. They blatantly copied the original Mac OS (which could be argued Apple copied from xerox), blatantly copied the ipod, blatantly copied the playstation, etc etc. Microsoft does a decent job of seeing what others are doing, and then copying them. That's not true r&d in my opinion. If you think microsoft has great r&d, then what devices have they ever radically designed themselves from the ground up (which hadn't already been done before)?

pfff apple i ain't even gonna go there.... not even xerox they blatently copied freebsd and made it a licensed product..... even MS in their worst years of evil behavior back in the 90's never made me want to vomit as much as that company.....

don't tell me you think ms-dos was stollen from ibm too..... and i fail to see what the xb copied from ps... different architecture almost from the ground up twice in row.... hdd and online integration.... the only similarity might have been the media support.... if their is someone in the vg game industry that really copied and stole sony vs sega / nintendo now i agree.... but then again can't blame them on that one sega was on the edge they just pushed them down the cliff :) .....
