That's like saying a 3* michelin meal isn't the same as a big mac. Yes, they feed you, but they're totally different markets, so they can't be compared

I'll take my own opinions and the fact that almost every site loves the system when I get mine in under 2 hours


Ok wait, are you saying Apples products are made from the finest quality ingredients? Ive got some bad news man.

No, other way round. I was speaking in terms of the developers

Apple means you have loads of cheap things in it, and there's loads of different types. However, most are absolutely terrible

Nintendo, 3DS specifically, is only for those who have the cash to make the games, but even though there's far fewer, there's also a far better wave of quality. Sure, there's still some poor meals, but it's a far smaller percentage then on Apple platforms



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

I won't even bother clicking the link. After reading the comments here though, let me just say that "hardcore" is the new "mainstream". That is all.

The actual critisizm is fair in terms of stylus use, BUT its certainly not fair when you don't critique Apple the same way (IPod click wheel for almost 10 years, now touch screen arguably unchanged for 5 years).



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

How the do retarded people  like him get jobs with CNN, the iphone and 3ds are not the same thing and can not be classed as the same, i bet he's humping his iphone 4 on top of his hardcore xbox1 right now.

You missed the parts where he played Xbox Halo, called the DS a gameboy and 3DS a gameboy

'In an age when Apple dominates..' LOL WHAT? The DS has outsold the iPhone. I also believe that it is no longer has the largest phone base in operating sytem (read that somewhere) and now it's the Android. So saying the iPhone will affect the 3DS is a bit ignorant from his part.

'Haven't seen a cartage since the Gameboy' haha 

This adds to my thread: 'Why does the media worship Apple'
