The more new products and ideas Nintendo comes out with, the better. It is good that Sony and MS copy Nintendo because it makes for better games. |
Because obviously Nintendo never benefitted any from copying Sony and MS, such as adding on online service and moving away from cartridge based games. |
You do realized that NEC released the Turbo CD in 1989 right? You do also realize that Sega Net, first via the Saturn in Japan and later on as the Dreamcast's worldwide on-line service, preceded X-box Live right? |
Sega Net was the 3rd online service, from what I remember. Both SNES and Sega had online and there was another serivce before that. Anyway, it is easy to tell that Nintendo is not copying anyone with online. It had online before Sony even made games. However, just because Nintendo did it several generations before MS, I wouldn't say MS is copying Nintendo with online because its service is very different. However, MS copies Nintendo in several other ways and there is nothing wrong with that. The more MS copies Nintendo, the better it is for consumers.
