Is that right, so if you like a game, or movie, or any technology you a nerd? I've heard that dumbass comment repeated by nerd after nerd.
looky here nerd. A cool guy has the nerd make the electronics for him, then he uses it and the ladies say "Look at that cool guys toys"
Watching movies is something all ppl do. They have G4TV where they had that slogan "its a nerds world" and your nerdy ass believed it :bryan:
But Olivia Nunn was out as soon as possible. Couldn't wait to get away from the nerds (Tru Story)

So long story short, this is what separates the nerds from the cool ppl. Naruto, I seen it before and its a decent cartoon.
A nerd has it on tape and will brag about it. A cool guy seen it, accepts it for what it is, and might have an And1 mixtape somewhere :manny:
A nerd will rock a PS3 for the gaming, A cool guy rocks a PS3 because it was the cheapest blu-ray player at the time

If you need anymore examples? I seriously have another 30 I can throw out there. But that would be mean...


Hol up :wtf:
This dude tryna tell us the difference beteween cool people and nerds..and he on here suckin MS dikk daily with multiple aliases bout some damn games? :bryan:

Get real breh..you bout as nerdy as they come.

They need to put a fork in this shyt, cause its well fukkin done..

To be honest, they deserve everything they get. They add that cheap ass resistive tablet that cant do any calculations itself, has terrible range, and doesnt have the appeal that todays popular tablets have. They knew the Wii motion controls were a fad, and, seeing this new tablet fad, tried to capitalize on that, but failed MISERABLY.
They rehash Mario after Mario after MARIO game...i mean damn we all love mario, but can we get something new? :wtf:
Then dont let me get started on they online system and UI...they reserved 50 percent of the damn ram for system resources, yet when you want to message somebody while you are playing a game, you have to first press the home button and then wait around 30 seconds or so just for the miiverse to load..to message your friends..
So somebody tell me why the HELL the system is so much slower than PS360 desipite having 4 times the RAM on updated hardware??
THen theres the archaic transfer of games...and the fact that all the retro games are expensive...just L's all around.

3 things.

1.) You still haven't given me my damn props :birdman:

2..) You are wrong about PS3. You are taking sony's word for it, while ignoring ever real fact like sony reports shipped. They shipped more and that isn't even true.
They stopped making PS2's in Jan.2013 but been counting PS2 & 3 systems as PS3 systems sold since 2009 I think it is.
Once again, sony counts systems shipped as sold. They "shipped PS2's all across the world until jan of 2013" so you tell me how many PS2's are in that equation? Supporedly PS3 is up by like 100,000 systems. You trying to say they only shipped 99,999 PS2 in 3/4yrs so the PS3 is still up by 1 system sold? If thats not the case, you tell me how many PS2 are counted in that equation. So once again, WRONG!

3.) You saying the PS3 would outsell the Xbox back in 2006 doesn't deserve props. Thats not a bold prediction since the PS2 just came off being the highest selling system of all time. You saying they will continue wasn't something not expected by the masses. What I saw and IS CORRECT STILL on deserves props. Which I already received over the years. Especially predicting a year later and the price right on the money :whew: So give up them good props or the bad Karma "could" lead to one of your systems dying mysteriously :manny:
they all report shipped to retailers.

i said that in the face of it costing $600 and immediately struggling to sell right after being released. i guess you forgot when Jack Tretton went out there saying he'd pay anybody that could find a PS3 at a store $1200 and people were posting pics like this

No, I haven't. You bringing up that story, then saying "I said it then" still isn't shyt. He's talking about shortly after lauch bruh. Nobody was convinced Xbox was gonna win at that point :stopitslime:
You trying to sensationalize predicting the PS3 would win like that is worth praise? Its not. Its like saying the Wii-U will lose this next gen. Like, really :rudy:
Now if you told me that the Wii-U was gonna be a success, oh wait, you did :umad:

And the PS3 reporting systems shipped, why are you purposely not addressing the PS2 systems being counted as PS3 systems sold. Damn, don't just flat out ignore FACTS to cater to your incorrect predictions bruh :stop:
If anything I just said is a lie, please when you quote this post you put those lies in BOLD so everyone can see how full of shyt I am

the wii-u was nice in theory but it wasn't innovative or entertaining enough to upgrade from the wii. they should have just stuck with the wii and improved on it by making the tablet an accessory. as long as they keep mario, zelda and pokemon then hopefully they'll be ok.

the question is how long can they keep doing the same magic trick before people become disenchanted? in some respects it seems like we're finding the answer to that question now. Nintendo needs an Adult Swim to their Cartoon Network. they could create a new brand and have it on their system say Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong ect are Nintendo and the more adult themed games are Brand X or whatever. there are so many gamers that don't even pay attention to Nintendo or take them seriously because there's nothing there for them.

Whatever Nintendo wants to do with their system they're gonna have to lead the way on it. if they wanna attract more adult targeted content they're gonna have to start making it and drawing that audience in and only then will the third parties look and say ok there's reason to make games for that platform now.

at some point Nintendo needs to take a risk outside of launch a platform release a Mario game, release a Mario Kart game, release a Zelda game, release a Donkey Kong game release a Pokemon game. sure they took a risk with motion controls but that wasn't a risk that targeted a stable crowd of supportive gamers it was more like them doing a trendy novelty to appeal to people who don't even really play games like that. in the end those people's nature isn't to play video games so they went back to that.

You want gaming to be filled with first person shooters? Without innovation of any kind, the industry will crash. Wii U may be down, but it's far from out. Nintendo is the godfather of this gaming shyt, and you want them gone? :what:

Tell me what was the last gaming innovation that nintendo came out with that effects how we play games today. If you say anything other than four controllers connecting to a system (n64) then you mistake gimmicks for innovation. The tablet and motion controls are not innovative they are gimmicks that have run their course. A new smash bros, mario kart, metroid, zelda, etc is not innovative either, they are rehashes no different from the fpss that get released year after year but thats what the people want from Nintendo at this point. Every person on this site that talks about wii u says the same shyt, "im not really playing my system but when (insert nintendo rehash) drops its going down. And the nerve of you to try to act like nikkas are only playing fps shooters out here if they arent fukking with Nintendo. my game list speaks for itself, I play a variety of shyt.

A variety that you wont find on the Wii 2. People want the software, the hardware, not so much. And really even their software is pretty stale.

People keep saying Zelda, Smash, and Mario Kart will save the Wii U. The last 2 Zelda's have been mediocre to wack and Smash brothers had possibly the worst online system i have ever seen in a game. Online in Smash was so bad it was almost unplayable and even if you could get a connection worth a damn it was a job just adding people to play against. Mario Kart has thrown even the semblance of competitive balance completely out the window. Sonic Racing Transformed is a much better game and at this point ill only play another kart racer if its made by Sega.

Smash bros has always been fun as fukk with the right people. The online system sucked donkey balls, but it was the in person gaming (something that we aren't used to anymore) that mattered. Hopefully this iteration will have both

Those idiots @ Nintendo rushed to make a new console that's basically the same as the Wii, threw the Wii to the bushes, no new games, no nothing and thought they were gonna survive? :childplease:
The worst thing about it is they rushed into it, instead of making a PC based console, they tried the same formula and flopped. :pacspit: good for them
