2015 coming to a close has me thinking about the past a lot. What are some of the biggest mistakes made in gaming history you remember?
1. Nintendo selling the charger separately for the New 3DS. The stupidity of this move is self explanatory.
2. MS trying to shove Kinect down everyone's throat for the launch of the XBOX ONE. Whether or not the Kinect itself is actually worth purchasing is debatable at best, but trying to force gamers to pay more for it was a bad move.
3. Sony charging $600/$500 for the PS3 at launch. The XBOX 360 launched at $400/$300. Sony was hurt greatly coming out the gate because of this. A LOT of people were unwilling to pay $200 more to make the move into the next gen. Thankfully, Sony learned from this mistake with the launch of the PS4.
