Sega or Nintendo. It's hard to choose between the two. Looking at the impact, it may just have to go to Nintendo though.

To each his own, I would have to say MS but thats only cause i haven't really played any PS3 games at all, games-wise Nintendo doesn't have a shot in hell.

Microsoft I guess, without them online gaming wouldn't be as big - or maybe even non-existant

Nintendo has really revolutionized gaming. SmokedHostage has had great impact too o.o



Being a Nintendo fan, and having been one since I was a little kid I instictively think Nintendo. They created a new control mechanism that truly works in the DS, then they did it again with the Wiimote. No other game company innovates like Nintendo.

That said, I also have to say that what Microsoft has done with Live deserves alot of credit as well. It's easily the most professional and well organised setup I've used. They have had major hardware issues but they also have been taking care of those issues free of charge to the customers. While it's a nuisance at least it's not a 3 day out of warranty DRE like the PS2 suffered.



Nintendo... reaching out to a wider audience...
