Care to elaborate?


a dissruption the way Nintendo did during the Wii era.


Nintendo created a way to make gaming more accessible for casuals by using a gimmick. This phenomenon caused casuals to flock to gaming for a short period of time and then lose all desire. There is no way what the Xbox One is doing is anything like that. People dont need an Xbox One to control their living room, Microsoft is assuming they do. Nintendo is a commercial brand so they use gaming to bring people in, Microsoft is doing the opposite, so why would people move from what they are currently to buy an Xbox One especially at $500? The Wii launched at an extremely affordable price, thats the other part of why they were so dominant.


But MS is trying to integrate all it's products with the X1 so that mainstream (NOT CORE LIKE YOU OR ME) can easily access gaming thus expanding the market!!!  C'mon isn't there any MS fans that can help me defend the X1 here?  The Sony fanatics are killing our poll!!!
