Forums - Gaming - 1UP Yours Podcast- September 14: Some New TGS Info (and some old)

Wii isn't exactly head and shoulders over PS2.....I mean, it's better, but not like 360 or PS3 better.

Yeah but why did the GC sell so badly and finished 3rd place if the price is the only factor?




Are you saying Wii is worse than 360 or PS3?

Not worse. Just different. Graphically. In...like...the negative way.



                                   

So Wii is worse because it has worse graphics?

@Aspostrovich

ps2 is past gen, and wii is next gen with motion controls and better graphics

Ok lots of questions

The gamecube failed because the ps2 was more popular in games, and it had the legacy from the ps1. Now here is my theory

When something is hard to find you have to get it before it runs out, this is the case with the wii, the people that want it which I still think is the GC audience with more kids/casuals, but watever, this forces them to buy the system. The wii is mario, the wii had motion controls the wii goes for younger audience, hard to find= fast sales do you get me?

Now this is not the case with the ps3, people that want it like teens and kids, cannot parent =s will not pay for that. I thin its the same with the psp actually in terms of North america, simply becasue its 40buks higher than the ds and the ds has more colors its being outsold.

 -Price is a factor True!
-Games are a factor True!






I mean, come on, if I never owned a game machine, and I wanted one, I would look at everything around now, and I would either buy a PS2 or a PS3, because one is $99 dollars and has assloads of highly rated games PLUS it plays ALL original playstation games, and the other plays all of those games plus the most technologically advanced ones, but for 300 dollars more.



                                   

Sony is doomed doomed lol.


Any new pics of SO4 or Persona ?



Dual Shock 3 better be a major revision of the controller design. As it stands, the Sixaxis blows in almost everyway imaginable.
