Do you think the PS4 and Xbox are, in the market they've shoved themselves into, able to compete against Nintendo's games? Nintendo has built an arsenal of games that are fun and Sony has nothing to compete with.

Back in the day they had R&C, Crash, Parappa, lots of fun games. Today they have LoU and UC, GoW. Different times my Rol.

No, I don't think that Sony and Microsoft can compete with Nintendo games (not in the past, present or future). Which is precisely the reason why the Wii U is so damn stupid. There was a huge market for Nintendo to take, but they decided that they have to have the same games as Sony and Microsoft, so they are now left with a console that nobody wants to buy and as a result the games don't sell either.

It's true that neither Sony nor Microsoft can compete with Nintendo on most of Nintendo's turf, but they were able to grab part of it (Metroid fans definitely taken up by Halo in general imho) and with Kinect Sports Adventures MS even competed with the Wii. 15m is nothing to laugh at. However I still agree that Nintendo is still king of their current offerings.

The rest of your argument just doesn't make sense and is opinion. It's not based on any factual evidence. For example, they decided that they have to have the same games as Sony and MS? How so?

How are they left with a console that nobody wants by doing nothing but adding a gamepad (which is neither a main Sony or MS feature)?

You need to sturdy up this post, honestly.

Kinect Adventures was MASSIVELY bundled. It pretty much came with every Kinect. I hope you know that a Kinect Adventures without being bundled with Kinect WILL NOT do anything near 15 million. So how exactly did this compete with Nintendo? You can't be talking about Wii Sports( it was the Nintendo game that was also MASSIVELY bundled) because it did over 82 million.

 

..you really just attempted to give MS credit for this.. Hmm

 

The only thing that was "grabbed" from Nintendo was Rare and it's Nintendo known franchises.. 

 

Also, what do you mean when you say "metroid fans definitely taken up by Halo", Padib?

 

I'm curious
