See the numbers, if we compare market cap, that's how it should be: MS>Nin>Sony

I was aware of a large quantity of these facts, however I had no clue about some of them.

I knew most of this. Also, I have never heard anybody use the phrase "Nintendo Hard", ever.

Im sure your wife/girlfriend has asked you whether thats a Wiimote in your pocket or if you're just Nintendo hard to see her.



Tease.

is Nintendo larger then Microsoft in the gaming devision as well?

in market cap ?

Nintendo > Sony > Microsoft (you know microsoft didn't make much profit until this this gen?)

in number of studios?

Sony > Nintendo > Microsoft

as a multi product corp ?

Sony > Microsoft > Nintendo (they only make games and , i think, Pokemon show)

The only thing which really matters is profit. Revenue, number of studios, product range etc are a means to the end which is profit and nothing more.



Tease.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Anyone from that era knows how hard the games were and can relate to how much easier games are now, but I've never heard those words uttered like that.

Wasn't a thread made about a video that said basically the same thing very recently ago?

 

Some impressive facts anyway...

Huh... comparing Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo. Nintendos market cap shot up loadsss when they announced the 3DS?

To be honest I don't properly understand google finances. The graph says % at the side, but % of what? Makes me feel stupid :P

Btw it is funny that PSX and PS2 are skipped on the console comparison list.
