I've been thinking about this for a while, and here are the questions... Who was the winner when Microsoft announced Grand Theft Auto IV for XBOX360? Here I think Microsoft debilitated Sony in America; most of us still think that GTA was one of the reasons that did so podular Sony's console. Yes sony definitively lost a big card. And what did Microsoft obtain of it? Well they're going to earn some sony's market, (and even I think the game isn't going to be the same without the exclusivity factor...), but that's all, they aren't going to see the succes that the game had before. The same goes to Devil May Cry, (maybe MGS4)... Nintendo won. Who was the winner when Microsoft got the support from japanese developers? Sony lost again a good card, and games who could be million sellers in Japan in a PS3 (Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, even Viva Piñata) were only a good try for XBOX in that country. Nintendo won. Microsoft even made a HD console, cheaper, with the best experience online, and more accessible than the PS3. Microsoft hit sony's weaknesses, and Nintendo took advantage of it. Why I think Nintendo can be the winner in this war? Because the Wii had a philosophy that did sony a winner once, the PS1 and PS2 philosophy. Make it easier for developers. Make it cheaper for the people. Make games for all kinds of people, not only for hardcores. What do you think?
