Forums - Gaming - Incredible how everyone seems to screw up with the third console!

A friend of mine said the same thing years ago about the PS3. He added that by time the 3rd console come around, the console makers gets too dam arrogant, like Nintendo and Sony did.

I love My Wii U, and the potential it brings to gaming.

What are you talking about, the PS3 is a beast. :D

Cant they change some of the stuff announced in the next coming months?


Regarding the fee to play used games, I don´t think it´s as simple as them going to EA & Co and saying "hey guys, remember that deal about used games that would benefit you guys?...yeah, forget about it".



I guess some people never learn

like company like fan I say ;P



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

so from this we can conclude that PS4 will sell less and PS5 will shoot up to the top once again?

Aye. PS4 will either push Sony out of the market (Dreamcast) or be a nadir in their market significance (GameCube).

It's Nintendo that's out in uncharted waters.

I'm pretty sure the worst thing that will happen is it will be more like a GC situation than a Dreamcast one

Mr Khan's post gives me a idea on how to visualize what to expect.

PS4 = Could be either a Gamecube or a Dreamcast
WiiU = Could be either a PS3 or a Xbox
XONE = Could be either a N64 or a PS3

I fear for the upcoming gen ;x

Or,
PS4 = Xbox
XOne= N64
WiiU= Dreamcast (but barely survived)

In other words, they're all doomed, as opposed to the norm, Nintendo being the only one doomed

Nintendo did it with the N64.

Sega did it with the Saturn.

Sony did it with the PS3.

And while the Xbox One hasn´t been released yet and the 'no one knows the future' talk is in effect here, all those nasty rumors that are now being confirmed might just be a train wreck in the making.

But the original Xbox wasn't successful, it just finished in a very distant second place.
