@pastro, i hope you were kidding.

Nice thread, and it was about time someone brought this up, I hope we can all be civilized about this.
it's the future of handheld

PS VITA = LIFE
The official Vita thread http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=130023&page=1
Its Sony who are the problem. They speak crap about the Wii all through the generation and then they have the gall to copy Nintendo almost 1:1? They deserve to get mocked for it, and mocked hard. Aside from that its just a natural anger which has been brewing the whole generation and Sony are the first appropriate outlet for that anger.
If Sony had just STFU about the Wii and shelved their arrogance this would never have happened. Its not about the fact that the copied, its about the fact they were assholes to the Wii which they then subsequently copied. Its Sony who brings this home to their own roost, why not make a thread about that?
The Wiimote got 4 straight years of "This is a stupid fad, it's completely worthless, PS3+360 will rulez it"... So, basically, what I'm saying is, I'll stop making fun of the Move and the Natal in 2014.
Wii has more 20 million sellers than PS3 has 5 million sellers.
Acolyte of Disruption
Nintendo played a fair game and won. No shenanigans, no underhanded dealings, no pressure on publishers. They won fair and square and noone can come back next generation and say that Nintendo didn't earn their keep in this one or that they were anti-competitive, monopolistic or even negative to the competition. Why defend companies which do all of the above?
Well, I'm glad someone said something.
I support PS3 more than 360 and Wii, but it doesn't mean I don't have respect for them. Granted I still don't think Move is a 1:1 copy, but I don't even want to get into that, I've already tried to get people to see what I was trying to say.
WilliamWatts and Showertea - Wow, just wow... I mean, sheesh Fanboys will always be Fanboys no matter what you do I guess.
I'm done with this whole Wiimote vs Move crap, I'm letting it slide and going to sit back and watch Fanboys of both sides humiliate themselves.
There is definitely more to list that I want, but that's my main focus there.
I'm sorry but Sony should have announced their new "FAD" as the Waggle Jr. I don't feel the least bit bad if they get bashed back to the stone age. Both Sony & MS encouraged the "Waggle / Fad" BS for YEARS everywhere they had influence. There was plenty of belittling done at the expense of Wii owners "feelings about their systems". Now everyone wants us to feel good about Sony's hypocritical and what should be a very embarrassing "backstep"? We should feel honored that Sony copied us without acknowledgment? That sounds like something old time white rockers said about black blues artist back in the day when they stole their songs. At least the rockers didn't make fun of the music before they stole it. Sony & MS fans are going to have to expect the little jabs at their motion controllers. Personally I think Sony should bundle Super Sockboy Bros. Brawl or PSPORTS to complete the theft.

I am all for poking fun at each other in these "console wars", but there is is a way to conduct yourselves while doing so. Making mean-spirited attacks belittling the PS3 and Move is not the way to do it. Do I see the irony in the fact that Sony is releasing games that look similar to many Wii games? Of course, I wrote a honest/satirical thread about this subject just the other day called "Sony is in danger of losing it's fans". What I'm saying is that I can understand the wanting of a release of some sort after being ridiculed three years straight for having the console with the gimmicky motion controls by a certain group and then see that same group basically admit defeat by imitiating what they were laughing at. What I don't like, on the other hand, is people basically saying, "Sony Move sucks because the Wii Remote was first." (How do you know? Have you tried it? Most people haven't) You wouldn't want to be treated that way by Magnavox Odyssey or Atari fans because Nintendo copied their idea of bringing the arcades home with their video game consoles, would you? People shouldn't hold anything against a company that wants to play follow the leader. Someone had to be the first to introduce the motion controller and it was Nintendo. Now the other two are completely changing strategies in the middle of the generation. This is their way of conceding victory to Nintendo and admitting that they were right. We, as fans, should now be celebrating this moment and not taking the time to point at and make fun of those that are not doing as well. I did not like it when the Gamecube was being made fun of for being a kiddie looking purple lunch box that had no games when it was getting trounced, and I also didn't like when Nintendo basically admitted defeat by dropping to $99. What I'm saying is that things have turned dramatically in a short period of time and can do so again. Try to be a little more gracious on top, because it does suck to be on the bottom. It wasn't too long ago, remember? Yes, there are some Sony fans that have been jerks, but that doesn't mean that Nintendo fans have to be jerks too. Don't get me wrong, I'm still going to battle on the front lines; but just saying, "Sony stinks just because I said so!!!" is not the way to do it. |
i like your thread..i thin you r right. But i don't think this will stop any future debate between the fan boys...For me i think the main problem is not the majority of fans from Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft...there are only minority of people who are so aggressively to "fight" for their system...first i was bit annoyed by it, but now i look at it...is kind of funny....the way i look at it..why people get so hyped up about who is better, which should be first etc....in the end, we are only numbers to them(Microsoft,Nintendo and Sony) They wouldn't give a shit about us, no matter how supportive we are. You think you "show your loyalty" to them, and fight for them in the forum will make them help/support you in the future? Just grow up, people.....and admit it, they couldn't careless about you. They don't give a shit!!
I think the hate is pointed more at the company than the fans. I love the fans. I use to be one of them until Sony decided to charge 600 bucks for a console.
So............... I can still be a smart arse?
