Forums - Gaming - The Playstation 4 announcement is very exciting but Sony fans are getting overconfident

 

Are Sony fans right? Will PS4 win next gen?

Yes the time for Sony dom... 122 37.20%
 
No Wii U or the Next Xbox will have victory! 58 17.68%
 
Maybe, it's way too earl... 147 44.82%
 
Total:327

Dang it... I thought this was going to be a Rol thread!

Anyhow, I guess I can agree, somewhat. People are pumping themselves up like crazy. It's almost scary how much PS Fans are gif-ing/avatar-ing up Kaz or goin' crazy over this announcement. I mean, I was anticipating the Wii U announcement and I would probably go into hiding or something if Miyamoto left but this... this is madness!

Yeah, them Sony fans. Its not like this happens with pretty much every fanbase. Nope. Not at all.

ITS THE FUCKING PS4 BOW DOWN XBOXNINTENDO KIDS!!!

Did Shiznit just get real? oO With all the Kazifications (as hilarious as they are), it gives you an idea what goes on in the minds of some people (in extremes). Kaz pulling the hair of the MS guy and putting him to the ground, Kaz shooting Reggie. I haven't seen that for either camps Nintendo or Microsoft, horribly sorry.

1. Well its a portable so there's that.
2. In case you forgot, Vita was priced equal to the 3DS but Nintendo chickened out and did a massive price drop.
3. Handhelds are handhelds. Not much you can do with innovation. It's all about the must-have games and Vita is lacking in those.

1) Yes, a portable gaming system made by Sony. It isn't like they decided to start selling houses. They have tons of experience with gaming systems including the PSP which started off much stronger than what Vita is doing. 

2) That has absolutely nothing to do with my posts. I didn't bring up the 3DS at all. The point was that Vita was priced too high, so was the 3DS which is why they Price Cut. The difference is that Sony couldn't Price Cut that soon because unlike Nintendo, Sony wasn't making buckets of money off each Vita sold.

3) You can certainly have innovation with Handhelds. Of course the innovation will only go so far without great games that utilize it well just like with consoles. 

None of your 3 points had much to do with what I said in my previous post though. I was simply saying that based off of past systems, Sony likes the powerful tech and high price strategy. Again, not really a bad thing just more risky. To say that Sony won't repeat the same "mistakes" again is being hopeful because I don't think Sony views them as mistakes.

High price compared to Nintendo systems which are sold cheap. and when they're not just look at Wii U as reference to what happens.

The truth is that Vita is an affordable handheld. It's not cheap, its not expensive, it is reasonably priced IMO. It's about time for a price cut though.

@B: Nintendo has nothing to do with this, expensive is expensive. If PS3 was $600 and Wii was $750, the PS3 wouldn't automatically be "cheap" would it? I find it a bit odd that you keep bringing up Nintendo when this conversation has nothing to do with them. This thread in general has nothing to do with our conversation but could you try to stay on topic to this off topic discussion? (HA)

@U: I respect your opinion but Vita IMO is high priced for a HH. $250 plus the memory card for the least expensive model. The PSP was even more expensive when you count inflation. I agree that Vita has a justifiable price for its tech but most people will see the price as a turn off. The lack of good games and high memory card price will seal the deal. Overall, games are the most important factor but Vita is still too expensive for the average person.

Typical of a new hardware unveiling.

Expect same thing when 720 comes around, or E3 when people hope to see 720.

not sure what to think of this timing. I mean right now Sony has 100% eyes on them. Where as during E3 they would have to split their excitement.

BUT come E3 this year, we already will have known about the PS4 and thus we'll be excited to see a 720 or whatever else is there from microsoft and Nintendo. i mean I don't expect much from Sony during E3 that won't be shown today, besides price, release date.

So Sony will win February, but basically is gaurantee'ing their loss at E3. Which is best?





Hopefully, the hype delivers or the overconfidence will turn into rage and angst.

Nintendo fans believe that because the WiiU is selling badly that every other console will sell badly. - It's logic bro!

Microsoft fans believe MS has the US on lockdown for next gen, so nextgen battleground is EU. - It's logic bro!

Sony fans are excited about a new console unveiling and people get annoyed. - Fucking PS fans! I hate em!


Truer words have never been spoken.
