Nintendo deliberately marketed the NES as a toy. When the NES was launched, every serious gamer that I knew laughed and mocked the toy with the stupid controller. That philosophy hasn't changed. As a toy maker Nintendo has done well. As video game console and game maker, not so much. The next good system and/or game that they make will be the first. Obviously, TS' claim for this being the last "console" is welcome news indeed. |
Consoles are toys. They always have been and they always will. No matter how much Sony and MS tries to market the console as something else, that's what it is and the reason people buy one to is play with it.
All consoles are toys. And console gaming was better when all console companies weren't afraid to admit it.
I LOVE ICELAND!
