| dexterlablab1 said: Nintendo should just do whatever in terms of when they release as long as they continue to profit Sales wise, it won't make a difference. The people are going to pick who they pick. 1. The PS1 came out before the N64- the PS1 got the lion share 2. The PS2 came out before the Gamecube- the PS2 got the lion share 3. The PS3 literally came out with the Wii- The Wii got the lion share (you can say the price is a factor all you want, they still had the lion share even if that is true) 4. The PS4 came out after the Wii U- the PS4 got the lion share thus far. So as you can see, it doesn't matter when they come out. |
It does matter when they came out, and you got literally every one of your points wrong.
1. PS1 wasn't the early release of that gen. The Sega Saturn was and it was a horrible flop.
2. The PS2 wasn't the early release of its gen either, the Sega Dreamcast was, and it was hurt severely by the smear campaign the PS2 ran against it.
3. The PS3 was only trumped by the XB1 as dumbest launch in the history of dumb launches. They literally did the opposite of everything that made the PS2 successful. I even pointed out the XB360 as the single anomoly, the only early release to not be a horrible failure, and that was purely because the PS3 was done so poorly.
4. The PS4 coming out after the Wii U and murdering it in sales supports my point of early releases being stupid and that Nintendo should aim for a near simultaneous launch.
