... you do know that you're proving the opposite point true, don't you? That Sony can sell millions of consoles without depending on scoring a massive hit or starting a casual craze? Somehow I think you missed something. Regardless, thanks for helping the argument for Sony. |
Three things wrong with that. First, the question was who would sell more and if they could servive without their current IPs. Nintendo can. Sony can't. No company can servive when their best selling IP hit only 6m. Second, you imply that starting a craze some how takes away from the quality of the game, when in fact, the quality of the game is what started the craze. Wrong. Three, you imply that casual games are lesser games. Wrong. People still play Wii Sports today. People love Wii Sports today. Most people have never heard of Uncharted.
Nintendo wins hands down. If they couldn't use their old IPs, they'd simply make new IPs to fit the high quality games that they were missing. And they'd sell exactly like they do now and be used for the next 30 years. That's what they do. Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft make amazing and pretty much equal quality games, but Nintendo makes more, they make them more consistantly, they sell more copies of them, they spend less money on them, and they make more money off of them.
Sony has Gran Turismo.
How does that, in any way "prove your point?"
