people who say the wii made gaming what it is are crazy.
1. Sony was the first EVER to sell 100 million systems.
Their are a couple dozen MILLION casual gamers that got a ps2 way before any nintendo product. Sony made a way for casual gaming.
2. Nintendos highest selling console system was what 60 million? Sony ps1 killed that and made gaming MAINSTREAM. (Sony did that 10 years ago NOT nintendo)
3. Sony has the highest console price in history to sell 10 million consoles and will one day sell more hardware and software then xbox 360 (with its year head start)
4. Nintendo will sell loads and be the industry leader but intill it sells 120 million plus then and ONLY then has it expanded the market.
Sony took what sega and nintendo started as a hardcore nich industry and turned it into a billion dollar industry that it is. Nintendo is using its merits and skills (which they do have) to take SONYS market of casuals. And intill they expand the market with sales of hardware and software then ill say nintendo expanded it.
OT: No system will ever do what sony playstation has done. it paved the way for profits for 3rd parties and made the industry worth while for parents, kids, hardcore gamers and casuals. |
that sony we used to kow is no more. And no, Sony didnt start gaming as we know it, Nintendo did, then sony played smart and expanded on it. Now it's nintendo turn to fully reach the masses. |
So just because sony is selling in 2nd place means what it did in the past is no more? then this is the FIRST time ive heard of nintendo because for the last 10 years they sold in what 3rd?
Sony HAS reached the masses just because its selling slower NOW does NOT discount what sony did and thats sell more then ALL NINTENDO CONSOLES combinded so far.
