If bluray didn't need to be saved and Ken didn't go Krazy and PS3 launched at a reasonable price, it would've outsold the PS2 and force MS out of the industry, no joke.
| KBG29 said: I miss Kutaragi being in charge. He always invisioned PlayStation as the center of our digital lives. PlayStation was intended to be Smartphones, Smart Speakers, and Your PC all in one. A single highly optimized ecosystem that inhanced the value of our digital content, and made our lives easier with digital assistance. I hope that the real vision for PlayStation is still alive at Sony. The same rings true for Microsoft as well. They two had the vision of Xbox becoming the widely adopted PC of the future. I would love to see consoles continue to gtow and reach smartphone level sales in the future. |
He indeed was visionary but 2005 was too early for a "central entertainment system" and one box was never gonna work out. They should've started the iterative platform way back in the 90s, with higher priced consoles that have extra capabilities back then. Not about higher resolutions and fps, but things a regular PC could do like a web browser, email, printing support etc and price it accordingly, a "cheap home computer" for the family.
