But the original DS didn't, case in point.



Bet with Dr.A.Peter.Nintendo that Super Mario Galaxy 2 won't sell 15 million copies up to six months after it's release, the winner will get Avatar control for a week and signature control for a month.

Well... it actually doesn't do more?

DSi does pretty much everything PSP does (music playback, dlc, maps, voice chat, camera, etc).  The only major thing it doesn't do is video playback, but now it's rumored to be getting Netflix anyway.  Plus DSi has various random apps like calendars, notepads, book readers, calculators, custom alarms and even stuff like the metronome and instrument tuner that released last week.

the wii does pretty much everything the PS3 does too right?

the PSP does many MANY (as in LANDSLIDE) more things than the DSi does.. as the DSi doesnt even playback MP3s.. so the music playback feature is not one you should be touting.. as the PSP can playback several formats in addition to MP3.. and in style too with sens me which senses the mood of the song , and puts the songs based on what mood you are in..

 

 

Perhaps people that care about those features are buying an Ipod/Iphone.

Wanna compete with the DS? Make great games, don't play Mp3s.

Why having a big buckly black thing when you can have this small sweet black thing.

My point is Sony and Nintendo should focus their handhelds as pure gaming consoles because the gadget market is pretty much lost for them. Sure is nice to have the little camera, or the little apps but they shouldn't sell their products as media devices, Sony for whatever reason still tries to convince people that the PSP is that, so they put the PSP in a market that is totally owned by Apple and other companies.

in 2005, it wasn't TOTALLY owned by apple at all.. as sony had a pretty big chunk of the multimedia market, and the PSP was one of the top selling multimedia devices if not the top selling multimedia(aside from playstation 2 if you call it one) product in 2005/2006, they just screwed up because there advertising became weak, and they started thinking they had the handheld market, when in fact nintendo was constantly suporting the DS, and once the DS lite came out, there the landslide of a lead developed.

Some people say the Wii is like the NES reincarnated, so it´s good to see it doing good in Europe where the NES didn´t do so hot....WiiSports/WiiFit/etc..resonated better with Europeans than the original Mario Bros/Duck Hunt/etc..



Just Dance last week: 69,600
Just Dance this week: 108,900

Sorry to make this question here, but how do I make a thread in the forum? :D

Mid terms and holidays seem to be big for Wii games like JD.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.
