I still do not get the logic in the original post. Nintendo should give up because they are dominating this generation and making the competition look bad?

Let me take this thread back one gen just to show you how stupid it really is,,,

"The Sony PS2 has been selling extremely well and has made Sony a (temporary) fortune. But their outstanding sales is hurting the Gamecube, Dreamcast and Xbox, its consistently outseling all three consoles by a huge margin. The competition is not even close, they are embarassing the competition.

At the end of the day the console race is between the Gamecube, Dreamcast and Xbox, Sony will lose all their money next gen and will no longer be taken into consideration. The best analogy to use would be - if there was a wrestling match the main show would be the caged three way fight between three wrestlers aka Gamecube, Dreamcast and Xbox. The referee is always present in the fight but its not main show, its not the main attraction aka the Sony PS2.

Sony PS2 should just leave the console race and let the 3 wrestlers fight.

Please understand this thread is not trolling I have supplied fair and balanced journalism, thank you in advance to the VGchartz comunnity. Pease discuss"

That works, doesn't it?

Ahahahahoho hee hee haa ohoho hee hoo ha ho ha... And I thought my jokes were bad.

 You could try all day and still not be able to understand the logic. That's because there isn't any.

I would roll out the animated Captain Sisko facepalm gif, but frankly this thread is made of too much fail to waste a facepalm gif on.

Here is an interesting fact about this thread...
I can't believe you read past the first sentence.

Sony have the same 10 yr strategy as Nintendo did. Be number 1 for 10 yrs and then not be number 1 for 10 yrs

This is what is really happening... (using your analogy of boxing)

Since the 16-bit generation, game console companies have been using boxing as a way to entertain.  They thought that the best fighter will get the most money and groomed their machines to be boxers, training them to be bigger, better, faster. Each generation, these machines duked it out until only one remains.

In 2005-2006, gaming press has been salivating about the upcoming heavyweight bout between two giants. The software behemoth MS battling the consumer electronics goliath Sony. Everybody was excited for this "Fight of the Century." Nobody even gave Nintendo the chance.

Nintendo, however was busy looking at the audience and noted that there are a lot more people not interested in this boxing match. There were actually women, elderly, younger children who are turned off seeing grown-up men trying to bash each others brains out.

Most analysts, hardcore gamers, journalists and developers laughed when Nintendo revealed their contestant. Between the 360 pound white heavyweight from MS and Sony's black-with Blu trim pugilist with 7 SPEs (specialied punching equipment), the little white console was the 97 pound weakling.

The Wii did not enter the boxing ring. Instead, it climbed up the adjacent stage and started singing. The song, as well as Wii's moves on stage, entranced a lot of people.  The Wii discovered that singing can entertain a lot more people than boxing can.  Everywhere the Wii went on tour, its concerts were all sold out.  Sony, wanting a piece of this action, tried teaching his fighter to sing (SIXAXIS).  MS, also realizing that the contest is no longer who the best fighter is, but who's the best singer, is trying to re-make their combatant (NXE).

It will be interesting next gen, as the 3 companies select the console to represent them.  Unless one of them can redefine the contest again (just like Nintendo did this gen), the battleground will be in the concert stage.  It is no longer in the boxing ring.  Sony and MS will have to choose singers, and not fighters if they're to succeed.
