Sony has become a passing fad — 6 months before it's even rumored to be released! Now THAT'S pathetic.
Wait, what the hell is other?
Other would be all the third party developers I guess.
Nintendo have almost always "owned" e3. They're great at that showmanship. This one will certainly be no exception.Let's hope that, like the DS, Nintendo can translate critical acclaim into commercial success. I'm sure they will. I really see the Rev selling N64 levels in the West and even better in Japan.
I don't think it's that Sony's a "passing fad". They were legitimately at the top for a number of years thanks to 3rd Party support and cheap cost of development. Now that Nintendo's taking that route (N's SDKs are only 2,000 compared to the rumored Sony's being 3 times that), coupled with Sony's development of Blu-Ray issues and difficulty finalizing the system in general, people are losing faith in Sony.Combine THAT with the amazing sales the DS is doing next to the subpar sales of the PsP, and it's safe to say many are better in Nintendo to pull out a showstopper not only at E3 but for this entire generation of the videogame consoles. Of course you still see Sony Fans clamoring that Nintendo's kiddy, and that its graphics "suxors", but these are the only defenses those poor deluded folk have left! It'd be like back around the N64 era when all us Ninty fans were saying, "Yeah… well… we have ZELDA!"It's nice to finally see my favorite pastime drifting away from the "Gore is God" mentality, and seeing gameplay and innovation take the forefront again like it was in the 80's. When Nintendo dubbed the project "Revolution", they meant just that… a full circle return to the core of gaming: Gameplay and Fun.
That poll is fairly biased considering this is is a nintendo blog. I love nintendo tho, so whatever.
Mis- "I really see the Rev selling N64 levels in the West and even better in Japan."I hope not. N64 didn't do that well on this side of the planet. I see it selling DS levels.
Yeah, was being really cautious there. :o)Didn't the N64 do exceptionally well in America though; with Goldeneye and other Rare stuff as well as Ocarina and, of-course, Super Mario 64?
Not exceptionally. Arguably, all those games did was reduce the number of people that were abandoning Nin at the time.
"That poll is fairly biased considering this is is a nintendo blog. I love nintendo tho, so whatever."Except that the poll wasn't taken on this site. It was taken on Joystiq which is pretty even-handed.
