Look at the software tie ratio of the PSP compared to the DS. It's not good. Normally the more units of hardware you sell, the lower the tie ratio is. Why do you think Sony switched to cartridges with the PSVita? PS3 wasn't a mess because of piracy, but because it was too expensive and too complicated to develop for. It cost Sony billions of dollars, no matter how much hardware it managed to sell in the end. It's not luck or bad luck, it's dumb decisions. Who has profited the most since PS entered the home console market: Nintendo or Sony? Who ever earned the most, fucked up the least. The big three have all made stupid mistakes for the record. You're trying to make it sound like Sony only made good decisions, which is far from the truth. Since Sony entered the console market Nintendo has had 4 success stories: the revival of the Gameboy (Pokémon in 1996), the GBA, the DS and the Wii. 3DS isn't doing too shabby either. |
I haven't said anything like Sony doesn't screw up. You and others insist that whenever Sony wins is by luck. very Lucky to beat Nintendo 3:1 7:1 and 2,5:1... And when screwing up Nintendo beats Sony 1,15:1. Who won by luck or others mistake them?
You don't have the slightest Idea of Nintendo profit on consoles nor Sony loss because of Ps3, you have their reports that in the Nintendo case have hh and console and other merchandise together as well as a lot of Sony reports had other info. If you use hh to say Nintendo profited more on HOME console let's use MS total profit to say Xbox is the winner.
And on the topic of piracy you completely avoided answering and just stated that PSP have a worst tie ratio than DS using vgc bogus data and ignored that DS is equally easy to pirate and ps4 having bluray was harder to pirate than DS with cartridges. Also x360 didn't suffered with piracy even being easy to.
