Nintendo can tell them selves this all they want, its envy , PS changed gaming in a major way, then MS can along and also changes gaming, Sony and MS offer the very best experience in gaming today, from excluives , graphics, online play, Dolby digital surrounsound. I own both a PS3 and 360 now and they are both great consoles, I love them, I can't even take Nintendo seriously as a gaming comsole, to me its a home gym, and nothing more. Nintendo can lie to them selves all they want, true gamers no whats up !!, and so do developers and the industry, that is why so many developers are dropping major development funs from Wii to apply to PS3, they know PS and MS are the future of gaming. The best part is we can all Thank Nintendo for screwing over Sony back before PS1 days , made Sony so mad because it was a straight stab in the back, Sony said Ok, we will move forward by ourselves sinse it was Sonys technology in the first place. PS was born, So I guess Thank You Nintendo !!

 

Excelent post!

I give it an A- in trolling!

Keep it up and you might reach even better scores!

This is news to me.

From the story i have read about this issue it was like this. Nintendo wanted to get into the CD games market. They saw Sony made sega's Sega CD add on and thought we will just get Sony to make ours too. But Sony started talking about making a new system of there own down the line. Nintendo didn't like the idea of Sony knowing the inner workings of the Genisis and the SNES and then useing all that info to make a new system down the road and turn into a compeitor. At some tradeshow, CES 92 i think, Sony made the anouncement that they were going to be working with Nintendo on a new CD based Nintendo system. Then Nintendo gets up there and tell everyone forget what Sony said we are acually going to be making the CD system with Philips.

I don't blame Nintendo for droping Sony but they really should have told them before Sony anouced at it CES.

OT: This has to be a joke thread and if its not? Well then I feel real sorry for the OP's narrow minded view of gaming. Ditto for anyone that agrees with him.

That's partly true as well. Ken Kutaragi, SCE's CEO at the time, became interested in gaming when he saw his daughter playing with the Famicom (Japanese NES), but he also knew that Sony had no experience making video game consoles. So he made contracts with both Sega and Nintendo so he could see their consoles' blueprints. But the reason Nintendo rejected their contract in the end was because Sony demanded 100% control over anything related to the CD add-on with Nintendo receiving no royalties. That would mean Sony would be in control of every IP Nintendo owned.

This is the very first Playstation prototype. Judging from the complete lack of Nintendo's logo on it, it's obvious that Sony intended to go alone from the very beginning.

any progress is irrelevant if it can't hold it's position.

nintendo needs to be more open with a better broad range of games
msoft...make better hardware, but software is great thus far

sony...over take msoft first, then maybe the world will recognize you again.

ps - stay away from handhelds.

Wow, that author of that article needs a ginormous slap.

He's got his lips wrapped around Sony's dick so tight, no amount of Sony busting a nut will get him off. I think he likes it, actually.

Extreme Failure Thread Alert

So consoles started out in NES?

LOL

You're saying that my Adult father haven't played on his Spectrum while I was still like 6 or 7 years old?

Are you saying that my uncle didn't have a commodore64?

You, sir, fail miserably.

I don't really see the Arc taking off if it isn't bundled with PS3 hardware and key software releases.
