Yes, the hype from the Matrix 1 (PS2) certainly helped sales of the Matrix 2 (PS3), but it didn't help sales of the Matrix 3 (PS4).

 

You mean after the 'people get get two jobs' and no big games until MGS4 thing? Sure, Sony know a lot about managing consoles, no more than MS or Nintendo.

 

3rd parties were on board with the PS3.

 

The world doesn't give a shit about power, why else would the Wii and PS2 have done so well?

The PS2 was powerful.

True. The Wii and the PS2 gave people games that they wanted. PS2 did sell 50 million plus- more copies than the Wii as well.

Like you said, "The PS3 had third parties". So that tells us the PS4 probably will as well. Based off how happy third parties are with PS3 game sales. The PS3 was a late bloomer, and now will have the advantage of coming out before the 720. But we will see.

 

to be honest, I am for the 3DS, but want to look at it at ever angle. I would not count the PS4 out.


The PS2 was more powerful than the dreamcast, less powerful than the GC and Xbox. How does that make it powerful?

 

I am not counting the PS4 out. I make my decisions after we have information. You are making the decision now, when we know nothing about the PS4 or 720, and very little about how the WiiU will end up selling.

 

Honestly, what do we know about the PS4/720 that we didn't know in 2006?
