So what game why PSX sell so much then? You cant just sell a console without games backing it up :/

About selling the consoles at a profit do you mean that its been done since the Atari years? And do you mean that even the original Playstation was losing profit in every console it sold? Do you mean even the PS2 with over 100 million sales so far was losing money in every console it sold?

What kind of business plan is THAT?!!



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

 

E3 2010- Tape runs out

Ridge Racer launched with the PlayStation and showed that the system was more than capable of producing great 3D graphics with fast frame rates... Now that was for that time incredible.. the Saturn couldn't do that.. Arcade quality in your own home..

Yes it was.. it was the game that showed the difference between 16bit and 32bit And Ridge Racer was the hot game in the Arcade.. in 1994..

about the ps2 games.. again Ridge Racer.. number V and Tekken Tag Tournament.. These games showed what the difference was with their psx counterparts..

Do you mean that Tekken tag tournament was a launch title NiKKoM?

Yes.... Tekken Tag for sure in EU and VS and in Jp it was released about 2 weeks after the PS2..

Is Tekken Tag for the PS2 really that poular? Sorry but I only seen Tekken tag being played in the arcades, never bought PS2 at launch.

According to the charts it sold 4 million.. that's good for a launch title.. & it had better graphics then it's Arcade counterpart..
