The PS3's launch was a fuck-up of biblical proportions.
-Launching $200+ more expensive than the competition.
-Still managing to lose $200+ per unit sold (this alone makes it win)
-No games
-Releasing one year late
-Having super-weird architecture
-No friking rumble (I mean, seriously, if they couldn't get that straight...)
-Lame ass network
-99% of PS exclusives lost (thank God for MGS4, Sony owes Kojima big time).
-Promise of backwards compatibility only to remove it immediately.
-Stupid PR (two jobs, generation starts when we say so, etc.)
I'm sure I'm forgetting something. The fact that it may still sell close to 100m units says a lot about how strong the PS brand was, but they sure tried hard to destroy it in mere months.
The concept behind WiiU is extremely flawed, but it just can't compare to what PS3 cost Sony.
No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.
