Iwata: "PSN and Live too far developed for us to catch up"

PS3 doesn't have cross game chat due to stupid RAM issues (Or so we are told...). Nintendo had plenty of time to prepare for this.

 

You keep saying people are over exagerrating, but then why are Reggie, Iwata and co. giving these terrible answers?

Because they are not ready to give the details yet. So they give partial answers that don't show their hand.

But you should be able to look at what's arlready shown and pull a basic idea of what should be there from that.

Its just like the damn friend code issue. They used the bad phrase that FCs are still there in a different from and people blew it out of proportion without actually thinking. All you have to do is watch the one video from pre-E3 to understand how different it really is and how modern of a system it really is. Sure Nintendo should of simply said no FCs are not there. We have a new system. Intead they like the stupid name and stuck with it and now people think they have some long code vs the usernames that were clearly shown in the videos with the clear capability to instantly make new friends and invite them to, at least for now, chats and video calls. Is it really much a stretch to think it will also be used to invite to play games? Hell you could do that with EA games on Wii.

I am going by what has already been shown and answered and formed a basic idea.

As I said, I can only go by what information I am given.

 

Of course it can change down the road, but right now it is what it is and I decide to try and make discussion about it. So if you saw things differently and maybe saw something I did not, please go ahead and inform me. That is the purpose of the forums here.

 

I didn't expect it to instead turn into me being labeled a Sony fanboy or to be told it is too early to have discussions.

 

Anyways, gotta go for a bit. Will return to see where this leads and see if maybe I learn something new.
