So you want to make a point on something that never actually happened? Because that doesn't make sense. 

I'm a PlayStation fan, which doesn't change anything, the fact you are making points on things that only come from wishing and not reality, you are making points over things you "think" would happen with no real reasoning behind it or that just didn't happened (with the bolded now), it's not because I'm a PS fan that I can't come to you and say that doesn't make sense, because it doesn't, there are no reason behind such claims, me or anyone else poiting it would be the exact same thing.

We may not agree, but I'm asking for reasons behind what you are claiming, don't label me as something and think I'm trying to push anything here because of that, that's not ok, you are basically calling me a fanboy here because we don't agree as I see no reason based on reality of what you are claiming (which you still didn't provide me, you are just comparing two complete different models based on market positions to claim things that aren't really based on that) that's really not ok.
If that's where it's heading to, then yeah, you better let it be in that case.

I guess ill try to better explain what he means although part of me thinks you are fully aware but just dont want to accept or believe it. Im sure you have heard before that without 3rd party support Sony wouldnt sell as much as they would. Thats what he means by "what Ninty faces every day". Sony hasnt produced a single platform without tons of 3rd party support besides Vita and well...Sony wasnt able to save it. Japan also lends some credibility to this by simply showing Sony taking a beating in Japan to Nintendo due to Nintendo gaining majority of the biggest 3rd party games. Sony did nothing while PS3 failed to match PS2. They tried to combat it with PSP which worked then and has now failed with Vita due to lost of 3rd party support. The point is where ever Sony loses 3rd party support, they lose big time. Their first party support has never risen to the occasion, so you truly have nothing backing up Sony could survive on the back of their own ip. Ninty on the other hand has proven in both markets (although home console market no as much) that atleast in theory they could survive on their own. They are pretty much preparing for this next gen lol, they would be because of WiiUs failure no doubt. You pointed out yourself that with each gen Ninty lost support they lost sales, that was until Wii and DS ofcourse which is the proof he has. You also have to rememeber that Ninty puts their effort behind their handheld side of things not home console, so always pointing to WiiU as proof Ninty cant survive comes off as more comical than anything. Ninty could pull the plug on home consoles and still be fine lol. Things look bad for Ninty(sales) this gen, just like things looked bad for Sony(financially) last gen. Doesnt mean the future cant look brighter.
