Forums - Gaming - Sony - We lead, not follow, we don’t want senior citizen gamers, Wii is fad

Good for them. Those billions of dollars in losses say "hello".



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

wow, these sony people are really not making me want to buy a ps3...

and since when does copying = leading?



OMG I can't believe someone still thinks its a fad. hahahaha. This coming from the same group that claims a #2 or #3 ranked system is somehow going to keep games coming in for 10 years. lol.



we’d never consider iterating off of existing competitive technology - because we think that’s a fad


Honestly, I do not see that as "wii is a fad", more as "copying something others have done to get some profit from it as well = a fad (for the PS3) that won't last long".

Denial is a river that runs through Sony's ass.



So what exactly is he saying? I read a low of words there but no actual direction.

I mean its all about the brand according to them, this is their problem - attitude.

They seem to think that now they have built their brand they can just exploit it forever and everyone will lap it up. They're in 3rd place, proof that enough that they can't.

A brand is an asset not a bloody work horse!



He didn't call the Wii a fad, per se, he was talking about the controller. At least that's what the paragraph before it was talking about. Since there was no mention of Wii in the paragraph when he said fad, I'll take it that the second paragraph was siimply a continuation of the first.



Basically, " we don't want growth in the industry just want the people who bought us last gen to keep buying our brand"

Seriously what kind of attitude is that haha. We don't want more buyers haha. We want the exact same as last time.

And the only reason they say fad is because they are building off mass media bullshit to help position themselves publicly ahead and above the Wii. Don't blame Sony for using it... blame those biased mass media sites trying to knock the Wii down every single moment with their obvious bullshit articles.

Haha you know your console is a threat when people go to all ends of the world to try and put it down. Nintendo should take it as flattery.



they definately are the leader.... #1 in needlessly insulting people
