The irony :patrice:

Dude cheerleading and clapping when Microsoft was buying one of the world's largest gaming publishers but says Sony monopoly :mjlol:

All Sony does is copy Nintendo from the Ps1 days, and just add better graphics. Dual Shock just added the N64 Rumble Pak and the joystick on the controller. Even online play was pioneered by SEGA Dreamcast.

Copy the competition and add shiny graphics is why Sony never topped the charts in Japan after October 2004. Stagnation with better graphics leads to a rut.

"Nintendo betrayed Sony so Sony made the PS1
Thet bet on CDs which devs needed while Nintendo was stuck on stupid with cartridges payed off.

They got Final Fantasy and blew up

Refined dual analog/rumble (everyone copied)
Scaled online (didn't invent it, made it work)
Japan went handheld after 2004 (not Sony's fault)

Adapting to markets, refining and executing isn't "copying." You don't get to market leader by just "copying." By your logic Microsoft Xbox should be number in consoles everywhere because they had the most powerful console at the start the gen and had all those features. Y'all dudes just don't like Sony lol.

Again, "inventing" isn't the prerequisite for being good.

Funny you saying that, did Nintendo invent analog sticks? Last time I checked the Atari had it first.
They didn't invent optical discs, even went against it and then by Gamecube went back to using discs. Isn't that copying?
Nintendo copied online service with the 3DS and Wii U. They added charged online multiplayer with the Switch after Microsoft and Sony did it.
Even the Wiimote was not the first as Sega Dreamcast had a prototype for tilt sensing for Super Monkey Ball. Nintendo just refined it.

You just stuck on stannery.

Inventing is VITAL for gaming. Even if the execution isn't 100%, it is still needed. That's why Sony can never take Japan ever again.

Times changed. Japan is more focused on mobile gaming, Sony leaned harder on consoles. Either way reinventing the wheel isn’t necessary for a console to be great.

Sony leaned into the west because that's were the most money appeared to be, just like they did recently with China, The sad thing is the gold mine was right there at home with them the whole time... It seems like they might be starting to understand but it might be to little to late now that Nintendo is basically Japanese government status over there

Any bad news pertaining to Nintendo goes double diamond here. You guys want to see Nintendo fail so badly.

If it were Sony vs. Microsoft shyt would be horrible.

Its like TLR and anything about Democrats :heh: anything bad about the Big N, thread goes diamond.

Anything positive about them, its *crickets*

Yep. Now they want to be a hybrid like The Switch, but cannot execute it correctly. Time and again, Sony cannot innovate, just copy with shiny graphics.

This time next year, watch how The Switch 2 breaks records again with more software.

:mjlol:
Funny how you ignored me saying Nintendo copied Microsoft and Sony with paid online and games behind a paywall or the other features that other platforms already had.

Also, Sony just does some of these things better. Sony's haptic feedback in the dualsense>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Switch HD rumble.

So they copy and copy. That's why their home base of Japan abandoned them. Losing one third of the gaming world is financially a self destructive strategy.
