how so?

I would not be so confident in Apple my friend. Steve Jobs can't live forever.

Even if they dont make a console and only buy EA that would could spell trouble for both $ony and M$, especially if Apple decides to favor one over the other.

or if they abandon both and market only to the wii. lol that would suck balls.

It would put them in a strong position and it's good to diversify, but like I said, Steve Jobs is going to retire soon and Apple is nothing without him.

I wouldn't be too surprised.... I bet they will market it not to gamers first.... Like the mac line wasn't really marketed towards computer enthusiasts. It markets for artists and everyday users.  It would be for entertainment value that ppl cant put their family together marketing push......

Either way this is going to get very interesting!!!

this could really give mac a gaming notoriety. One that could rival Microsoft games studios.

why isn't this in words? video is kinda lies



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

ok so basically they connect 2 and 2 which isn't exactly the best thing to do. Um, im gonna say MS are gonna shit their pants and Sony ain't gonna play next round.
