I think comparing consoles of the same gen and relative launch window is fair but not different eras since there's too many variables. As for why I'm here? I am here for the conversations. It's not easy to find good video game message boards anymore. |
So you only want to compare what you want? ok. your choice. Still, this thread is out of what you say interest you and is fair, so I ask again, what are you doing here?

And would you guess the reason Nintendo support their console for a shorter time is because it sustain its sale for less time?
