Can we never have a civilized conversation without you ending with shit like your last statement?

Anyway I got my info from the link I posted, I guess the nationalpost is mistaken.
https://nationalpost.com/entertainment/how-nintendos-massive-mistake-led-to-the-creation-of-the-sony-playstation-25-years-ago

This though: But Kutaragi wouldn’t let up his arguments, so eventually Nintendo told him, ‘Alright. We don’t think it will be successful, but you can do your CD-ROM thing.’”

Does nothing to change my mind that Nintendo shot themselves in the foot.
But now it does make sense why Zelda appeared on CD-i, what a terrible piece of ... that was. (My aunt had one, nobody wanted to play on it lol)

Nin did make the right call by laughing MS out of the room though with their partnership and acquisition offer. Gotta give them that.

Just like they did with Sony by not accepting their bad deal, Sony was literally trying to trick Nintendo and then set out to try destroy them when Nintendo left them red faced after finding out what Sony's plan was. Now Nintendo is number 1 in the console market so that didnt work out well for Sony.

Btw you remind me of another user we used to have here. Funny you only joined a year ago too. The mods really should check you out make sure your not him.
