Having a game at no.1 (this week) nope doesn't count (Isn't correct) having a hardware at no.1 (this week) nope doesn't count either (Doesn't have any meaningful competition. Of course it counts, it just isnt particularly impressive. Not to mention the fact that the PS4 is outselling it in every region it's available in currently despite supply constraints.) Having the most consoles sold (8th gen) getting a head start doesn't count, nope (So now you no longer think it's a meaningless point? Make up your mind lol) Having the most handhelds sold (8th gen) not amazing.. too bad.. nope, doesn't count (Same as my second response) Having the best rated games (8th gen) don't count.. competition wasn't ready yet (Agreed. It's a stupid comparison. Glad you could see it my way.) Having the best line-up next year (subjective) how can this be celebrated? it's subjective! (You can be hyped about it. I certainly am. Hell, MK8 will be the reason I pick up my Wii U. Nobody said you couldn't celebrate. People have simply been telling you not to pass this off as fact.) Having the best record of profit (every gen) can't count handhelds as profit, nope (Of course you can. But adding them together with consoles and comparing that combination against just the competitors' consoles isnt a fair comparison. You're pretending it is, which is the issue.) Having the most money in the bank (from game dev) money made the smart easy way doesn't count (Has nothing to do with being smart or easy, it has to do with being in a different situation and having far more products out. Where do you come up with this stuff? Nintendo being the industry leader (in a sense) being the first, the best, smartest, richest, basically no.1 at everything, and the one everyone copies does not make you the leader because... um... none of those things count. (Wow. This statement just shows your inability to think objectively about this topic. This is borderline corporate worship. It just goes to show what a completely wasted effort all my posts so far have been. It's like trying to throw bologna at a tank. Everything I said just bounces off of you and you ignore it because it isn't what you want to hear. Plus I lost bologna, or in this case time, in the process.
You wouldn't let ppl celebrate if Vita had done it? You say it's not amazing, I say you're playing it down like it's not a significant achievement, and I'm the one using Hyperbole to insane levels? (The only thing that would have made that amazing is if it had still done as poorly as it did in its first year. If it had been selling at a terrible rate, and then gone on to sell 3-4 times as much the following year, then yeah that's amazing. But the actual rate of sales, by itself, isn't particularly impressive on its own. Had the vita had a decent first year and then outsold a dying console during its peak, then no, I wouldn't call that a significant achievement.) |
Almost every one of your points above is a strawman of what I actually said. If you could address my actual arguments, you would have. Instead you put words in my mouth and try and attack arguments I didn't make. And even then you failed at that. I'm still not sure if it's an issue with comprehension, or intentional ignorance regarding the points I'm making, but trying to convince you of anything that goes against your ideal reality is a waste of my, and everyone else's time.
