omg...over dramtics and lack of comprehension, there not blaming NINTENDO theres saying " hey!..why are these guys only pointing us out on having a Market monopoly, when when were even the matket leaders!" There not saying anything negative* note this only in reference to 1st part*

I don't think the title is dramatic, it's more funny in my opinion, but yes it's nothing negative; it's not even a good argument Microsoft can do a much better argument than poiting at the Wii in the dismiss,

They can still make cards. They just have to get them approved by Microsoft

thats the thing they won't do it, since they sell it for ALOT cheaper.

microsoft accesories are overpriced.

I just read up on Datel... I just have to say they are basically crooks. It seems like a lot of the stuff they make for consoles are used fro hacking and piracy.

I am glad that Microsoft had the opportunity to block them out. I am sure that if they could Sony and Nintendo would do the same in a heartbeat 



lol @ Datel using message board arguments in a court case. I'd imagine there's more elasticity than they imagine. Not that the whole markets are interchangeable, certainly, but the mid-range users in both markets would probably see them as interchangeable, though the extremes of both the Wii and 360 markets would see their sides as the only one.

datel also makes generic memory cards. They also blocked madcatz (lol, do they still exist?) and every other company that wants to make cheap memory cards. If they were trying to block hacking tools, then I'm fine with it, but they didn't block any hacking tools, they just blocked memory cards




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

I guess Ballmer stole his children's WiiFit and jumped on it until it was reduced to dust to get relief from that.

From the article that I am reading the only company that makes storage systems for the Xbox are Datel. Which can be used to download saves off the internet for most of the 360 games. Which violates Microsoft's terms of use.

I am sure most people don't do this, but I can see why Microsoft chose to block them
