Forums - Gaming Discussion - Any Nintendo fans with ill will for Sony?

I have tons of ill will for Sony but not because of the 90s. I liked them in the 90s but now I don't like them in the 90s or any other time period.

Awful 'games'. Using story and character as crutches for gameplay shouldn't be allowed. If God of War was on Switch, the game would be over after pressing the + button twice. Flower is an overhyped 3d version of centipede. All the 'muh Clementine' crap in Last of Us made me nauseous.

Apple makes better music players, MS makes better computer platforms, Disney makes better movies and Nintendo makes better games.



Nov 2016 - NES outsells PS1 (JP)

Don't Play Stationary 4 ever. Switch!

I'm a Nintendo fan, but I can't really think of anything I'm angry about with Sony... As someone who has owned all of their consoles I think they compliment one another quite well.

It didn't quite play out this way.

Condensed...

 

  • Sony's Kutaragi seen daughter play on the Famicom and got interested. 
  • Kutaragi developed in secrecy the audio system for the SNES that Sony execs didn't approve of when they found out, due to disinterest in the video game industry.
  • Kutaragi ended up convincing them to continue on the project
  • Nintendo and Sony later then created a partnership for a CD-based addon that would play both SNES and SNES-CD Roms, that would be sold by Sony.
  • The contract between the two was that Sony would be the licensee and have pretty much complete control over the SNES-CD format, which worried Nintendo.
  • Nintendo then cancels out of the agreement with Sony and then goes to Phillips for a CD-Rom addon that would have Nintendo in more control, which flopped hard.
  • Sony and Kutaragi continue working on the project which then becomes the Play Station.

They walked out of them before they revealed the product at ces. Where is this in your condensed version?

To be fair, while it is entirely Nintendo's fault for not noticing at the time, that tiny bit that stipulated Sony had control over all titles using their cd device was not something they openly discussed or agreed to... Sony pulled a fast one on them, Nintendo didn't parse through it looking for problems as is generally the sort of due diligence a company ought to do, and when they later discovered this they justifiably panicked. It's Nintendo's fault then, but it was also a shady move by Sony.

Ooof, you fit the bill perfectly lol. I mean I agree about the obnoxious focus on story with some of their games, but that's not exactly representative of the entire PS library is it.



None here. My first console was the 2600, from there I went Nintendo instead of Sega (I only ever had their Master System). I bought a PS1 shortly after launch and have owned all their home consoles. I do tend to wait a while on their consoles though as I had to repeatedly replace my PS1 (this was back before Walmart and the like started registering the S/N when you purchased them).



I hate Sony blinded fanboy, not the Sony company



 

NNID : ShenlongDK
PSN : DarkLong213

I think I made a few jokes about the name, but I never really had any bitter feelings about it. Heck, I didn't even know about the console wars between Nintendo and Sega/Sony. I was just a kid who loved to play games and didn't think much on it. I had both a Genesis and Super Nintendo. I got a PS2 because I wanted games on that system, and it continued on like that for awhile.

What I do find bothersome though is its fanbase. It was its fans that kinda brought that dark side of gaming for me. I had a friend in college who loved playstation, and liked to tell me how their games were great and how Sony was better than Nintendo. Boy, was that annoying, and I've met other Sony fans that try to push how great Playstation is as well as their games are, while berating the games I liked.

Boy, I hated it, and it still jades my view on the majority of its fanbase.

Thanks for this. Very informing.

Why does that matter? As I said it was just a condensed version. Nintendo did wrong by breaking a contract, but it ended up creating competition for the industry to move it forward. 

 

And I didn't correct you about the fact Kutaragi was at odds over working in secret on the audio chip in the SNES and would/could have been fired over that. If it wasn't for Kutaragi convincing Sony execs to continue the project, Sony and Playstation may have never had a deal with the CD-ROM addon later down the line. The reason Play Station exists in large part is due to Kutaragi.

Agreed. Kutaragi is the king. Sony owes kutaragi everything right now.

He was also responsible for nearly killing playstation with the ps3.
