Oh, I though he was talking about the internet conection that GC had, I think it wasnt free.

After the Switch reveal I'd definitely say Nintendo. Not sure who would be second between Microsoft and Sony as they're closer to eachother.

But who gives you the most value for your dollar? Definitely Sony.

That is debatable. I went from playing Oblivion and Dragon Age Origins to Gears of War 4 with no issue while I'm waiting for the next season of Killer Instict to appear on GWG tomorrow. All on a console with a 4k bluray and HDR in the box.

As far as value goes I think MS has really came through this generation. And as far as I know no Sony game ever gave you 4 games for free when you buy one game. MS has done this.

The 3DS with no cord was cheaper and came with a free game. THAT'S what justifies it. It's not money-grubbing if it's cheaper, right? I bought one for the free game, lower price, and the fact that I already had a cord from my old DS that works just as well on it. If you're going to criticize something, you should look at it from all sides, not just the side you don't like.

Seriously a lot of you guys act like these companies hold a gun to your head and make you buy their crap. You don't have to buy EVERYTHING they come out with.

So true, is amusing how people still talks about the adapter shit without understanding the context at all lol I already have like 3 of those in my house, I woud rather pay less for the console, that's what they were thinking, even DS adapters worked with it.

You don't market and sell someone on hardware assuming the convience of a previous customer. You assume every customer is a new customer. Thats pretty business 101. There is def nitpicking on many things, but defending selling a piece of hardware without a power cord is not such a case. Its actually a perfect example.

In the worst scenario you only need to spend 5-10 bucks more for a charger, and I'm sure that happened in a minority of cases. Big deal to be still whining about and remembering for years, sure.

I agree with Nintendo but that's not an argument. Good games hold their value. That's a fact.

You literally just made the case for why people still bring it up. The fact that a giant multi-billion dollar company was so cheap they passed along a $5-10 cost onto consumers instead of eating some of that cost like pretty much every company does when they include things like power cables, headphones, batteries, etc in many of their products.

Okay so maybe it was bad business, but it definitely wasn't money-grubbing.
