It would be like the Spider-Man (produced by Sony, btw) series. First Spidey and Harry were friends, then they became enemies when Harry found out about Spidey's betrayal. Finally, they became friends again at the end and took down Venom and the Sandman!

Sony=Spiderman: Became super powerful because of a freak course of events and keeps fucking up for no reason. They talk a lot of shit, too.

Nintendo=Green Goblin: Super rich and takes away the women of their former friend.

Xbox= Venom: A rip off of the star. Could actually be more powerful but they are pure evil.

Apple/Android=Sandman: Dirty. Easily more powerful than all of the others and irritating when it gets in your ass.

You truely are awesome.

Guys like d21,Galaki and Rol are the reason I'm sticking here.

playing right now: Xenoblade Chronicles

Hype-o-meter, from least to most hyped:  the Last Story, Twisted Metal, Mass Effect 3, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Playstation ViTA

bet with Mordred11 that Rage will look better on Xbox 360.

A partnership between them failed back in 1986 due to egos & greed, seeing as how both Ceo or Coo from both still are greedy & have big egos . don't really see it happening .mho

I agree. Nintendo makes the hardware and software while Sony.... well, they release some of their [few] good games on the Nintendo platform... how about that? ;)
Seriously, here is what I think: Japan is becoming more and more portable centric. NA/EU is more console centric. Japanese 3rd parties are selling less and less on consoles. Between Sony and MS, I believe most NA/EU 3rd parties are more inclined to support MS now. Sony isn't Nintendo, it cannot live out of 1st party games like Nintendo. So IMHO they are in trouble next gen, unless the PS4 is something really different...

To be honest same as me.

They where supposed to team up for the Playstation (was originally an addon for SNES) Nintendo backed out as the deal would had been more profitable for Sony. I think this will never happen now when both companies are so big.

Oh hell no!! Sony makes the hardware, Nintendo helps them with marketing and and supplies software. Hardware is what Sony does best. It is what Nintendo does the worst. Nintendo much like Apple is a marketing master. They sell you inferior crap hardware in a pretty package and make you believe it is essential to own. Sony sells you expensive hardware and doesn't know how to convey their message to save their lives. Look at the new commercial for their 3D gaming TV. No where would anyone know that you can play two player games full screen while wearing the glasses. So unless you do your research, it just looks like a 24" 3D TV. They failed this way with the PS3 marketing as well. Nintendo on the other hand had everyone wanting a slim Game Cube with shitty GFX that did nothing but play games, most of which were shit. Apple does the same thing with their phones and Ipods. People stand in line to get the newest phone for some rediculous price when their are far better devices for much less money. I think that Sony and Nintendo would however make a great combination. Nintendo has a pretty good stable of first party games, imagine what they could be on good hardware.

This post shows lack of understanding. Nintendo's games are designed with the hardware in mind, but moreover their hardware is designed with games in mind. Sony's is not. Nintendo being the last company in the industry that sometimes (when they aren't following their own development fancies to god-knows-where) remembers what video game consoles are about: being an environment for GAMES, and not a stripped-down PC disguised as a gaming device

This whole thread is a bad idea, given that the two companies have almost diametrically opposite approaches to gaming.
