Really?  When has Sony done something like Amiibos?


 

Rings a bell? Or is copying Activision a different story?

I have no problem with this practise. I loved Dante's Inferno despite it being a God of War rip-off. I enjoy games because I'm a gamer, not a sony gamer. Like I said, I like Amiibos and have no problem with Ninty copying a seemingly good idea.


You're being childish.  So they beat Nintendo to it, did you not think Nintendo wasn't going to do something like that after they built NFC in their controller?

The Sony fanbase is by far both the largest and most vocal fanbase on most every videogame site and has been for a long time. The Sony fanbase is also the most likely to feel oppressed, say that they are under attack and say that the majority of the internet hates Sony/PS4.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Honestly this whole notion that it's bad to copy something that works from another company is so ridiculous.

For example, I've seen people several times complain that Sony copied the analog stick idea from Nintendo, I mean what? Should all other companies just stay away from analog sticks because Nintendo had them first? How horrible would that be? Analog sticks are awesome on controllers.

Or when they try to copy some game franchises. So? Who gives a crap? You don't have to buy it and who knows, maybe the copy turns out to simply be an awesome game. For example Crash Team Racing, clearly inspired by Mario Kart and still a game dearly loved by tons of people.

Companies copying each other happens in every industry and there is nothing inherently bad about it.

That has got to be the biggest joke ever. Activision came out with that series in 2011 and you say that Nintendo had planned this all along because of this NFC reader build into their controller, a feature that they could have easily build into there in a matter of months. Stop being ridiculous and just admit that Nintendo, just like everybody else, sometimes looks at what works for other companies and then tries it for itself.

Couldn't agree more. Also, just because you copy something, it doesn't mean it will turn out to be either good or successful. Wasn't Pokemon inspired by another game in which you raise animals? Who cares? Pokemon is awesome.

That comment makes absolutely zero sense to me, if anyone could explain what the hell you're talking about, that'd be very much appreciated.

Watch "Sky Crawlers" anime and that would give you the answer.  You need to get out more.
