| thekitchensink said: Anyone else notice that the company Nintendo essentially delivered a knockout punch to, which is headed by a former big-shot of Nintendo's current rival, is making one of the best-looking uses of the Wii-Mote?  I'll wait for reviews, but I agree, this definitely looks like what I signed up for when I bought a Wii. |
I've always loved the merry-go-round this industry rides on.
Sony and Nintendo cooperated with the SNES (Sony provided the audio tools and components) and almost created a disc based game system together.
Nintendo, Sony and Sega were all at one point 1st part enemies. Now Sega is a staucnh 3rd party supporter for them both.
Matushita (Panasonic) was behind the failed 3DO console purchased the M2 console technology for $100 millio nto compete against Nintendo and Sony. However, they went on to provide the disc drive in the GameCube.
NEC created the TurboGraffix 16, Turbo Duo and PC Engine game consoles. Then later provided custom chips in most consoles and now has their back catalog of titles coming to Nintendo's virtual console.
Gotta love this industry.
