There's some people here thats going to be shocked after Sony settles back in 3rd place one more. |
There fixed that for you. The biggest thing I always see when it comes to gaming as of late are people underestimating Nintendo and people being completely oblivious to Sony's financial situation.

You didn't fix anything, and don't do that again. People are too quick to throw Sony out when they not only won the last two gens but dominated like no other console could. I've given many reasons why i think they Wii U won't be as successful as the Wii. You haven't giving one why Sony can't come back. Who's the target market for the Wii U? It's not the same market they went after for the Wii. It's going to be too expensive. There's not much of an upgrade to haul gamers away from their PS3 or xbox360. It's the same games, they are looking worse with an incompetent online. Very little of the PS3/360 user base are going to jump over for ports and give up on their friends list, gamer score, and trophies and superior online systems. They wii u should have been launched in the place of the wii, it's this gen releasing 6 years too late. The only thing that's going to make the Wii u take off is a 200-250 dollar launch price and Mario. It isn't going to be 3rd party ports, while they have Mario they won't have a 200-250 launch price.

Well, you gotta remember that prior to the release of PS1 Nintendo had won two generations in a row. Perhaps it's Microsofts turn to win 2 straight gens? But there's 2 things we have to remember: we have no specs for the WiiU, AND Sonys financials are pretty bad atm... They can't really afford a major leap the next gen (I would think anyway)

We have a pretty good idea of what the Wii u can do. And it seems it could us a little more power, got to remember it's powering two screens, and if they want another game pad. That's even more power its going to need. Sony can afford a good leap, high end parts are cheaper than ever. Sony is moving away from the one off chips in favor of off the shelf parts that will be used and sold in millions of other devices. Look at the vita for example, sure it's cutting edge now. 6 months from now it won't be, those very same parts will be sold in tables and cell phone by all the major manufactures. What is this going to do? Drive down the cost of the parts and in turn drive down the cost of the vita. We could see 100 dollars cut off the vitas price by the end of 2013. Sony's assets alone are worth more than Nintendo. So don't be fooled, they have money.
