and all three of them failed misreably. I don't get your points

I'm sorry but what does that have to do with anything I said?

First = best, regardless of floppage or long/short term success.  Duh.

My eyes are quite sharp when it comes to judging games since I'm very strict with now days games. I don't buy just anything off the shelf anymore the way I used to back in 2000. Honestly LBP does not appeal to me at all. I like platformers but I don't like a game that Isn't REALLY about platforming but instead is about making platforming levels? That IMO is boring. I play a game to PLAY the game, not make it.

You don't HAVE to make you're own game. There's millions of levels to play. Making a level is just an option.

Kinda makes me want to pop in the game and see for myself, all I remember is the intro town being a tutorial of sorts...

I like your post but I disagree with it so I am going to explain where I do in a civilized manner.

Creating Move and Kinect is a good step for both compaines, but only if they actually take it beyond the current gaming boundaries. Wii Sports and clones like it were totally hot through mid 2007 but today, you need more than that to be considered innovative with your hardware.

Nintendo is not saying they were out first or created motion controls. They are saying they innovated it in a way their rivals are failing to do. They are still the first video gaming company to market their console and focus on motion controls. Every other item mentioned can be considered an add-on. With Wii, thee add-on is the traditional controller. Also, their view does not account for what is to come any more than your view takes into account what is to come from Nintendo or other compaines for Wii.

Your view is weird to me here. It is not like Nintendo or any company can just say, "Hey look at this new controller" and win people over. You need the right software to show off your controller. Not only this, but no other company created a whole console around a controller and bet so wildly on the success of this piece of technology. You make it seem like success for this was a certainty when in 2005/2006, it was everything but so.

This statement makes some sense. But it only supports Shiggy because what he is saying is that Move and Kinect need their own niches in order to keep that from happening. That is basically what I gained from thee article. In order for all three to gain their own level of success, each need to release and fully realize visions that differ from the path Nintendo has created. Until this point, that has not been done.

This one makes no sense. The 3DS gets tons of support for many, many reasons. It is not as easy as to say it gets support because Nintendo saw a red market coming. Please remember that 3rd party support is not up to Nintendo at all. Nintendo can try but nobody has to buy into their plans. So it is far more complicated than you make it out to be.

I am not going to get into the phone gaming argument. Until this point, I have yet to view phone gaming as a serious force that cracks into handheld gaming sales at all. Until the format is completely stabilized, I do not see this happening. I see it more like a PC. Unfortunately, the PC is past its prime.

I do like your post, no flaming and no broad scale ranting. I just disagree with it very much. Even the points you raise that I agree with, I find flaws within... anyway, thank you for being a rational poster.

LOL wrong.

That was a joke post you responded to.

I know! It blows my mind that the man creates an IP that will sell over 100 million consoles, and has already sold 150 million units of software, and even four years later so many people on a sales site are pretending none of it ever happened.

Denial is a powerful psychosis.
