the console wars heat up

.

.

Sony, Sony who? you say, it is the year 2010.

   I don`t believe this will be the case Sony has a huge fanbase and most if not all of Japan- Sony is going nowhere. Well whats the big deal about Japan you say? Well Japan regardless of the size of the country buys as many games as the US- so it is sort of a second front. MS was smart to try to win them over and now they have a little more time to do it, but will they? - no. Is MS going to get a bigger share of Japan than before? I think so. But not much more. Just wait till some more of the Japanese style games come out and you will see a bigger 360 share over in Japan.

   So the question is will Sony lose the US then? No not here either Sony has really loyal fans and they will wait and pay anything for the PS3. Will Sony lose share in the US market? I think so but it will be a close race for 1st place. I see Sony putting out the PS3 even later than expected. maybe late dec launch in the US. Priced around 500-600. In a way I would love to see SOny fail. I hate this company. I have gone through so many electronics they have made it is not even funny. But in a way I also hate MS, their garbage overpriced OS and office software.

   Nintendo is the real innovater and hold a special place in my heart, the problem with nintendo is they have a hard time getting really good third party support. The revolution is going to be cool though, old mario games, old metroid and zelda games, the new zelda game, what else can i say? The controller is awesome, the system looks cool. It may be a little underpowered some might say but hell, THE GAMEPLAY is what really matter.

   I see

     MS with a 35% market share

     Sony with a 40% market share

     And NIntendo with a 25% market share (and again the most profitable-  Nintendo is the smartest by offering the best price to performance ratio and by not taking a loss in selling their consoles)   

         The cool thing is, there is really no console war. Every system has their own fanbase and nitch. I will own the revolution along with my 360. It is a great time for gaming all this "fighting" has pushed the technology so far in such a short period and it will only get better. And to answer the question, who will win? nobody! and everybody!

The PS3 is suppose to have a 10 year life span... but nothing lasted that long since original Game Boy. I don't think PS3 will last 10 years... not unless they upgrade it, ot take it beyond a video game console. Knowing Sony... they'll probably add something ridiculous. Like "Hook your PS3 to you cars computer, and it will drive for you!"

I think MS will always flop in Asia.. mainly Japan, unless like you said, they get some crazy games those Japanese love like.... Nintendogs or even Katamari Damacy

As for Nintendo and Sony, they'll always do well in Japan. UNLESS i invent my own console! Then its game over for everyone!

i would love there to be a huge console war with 10 seperate consoles all competing for glory because then the only winners are the gamers some people just cannot see that

If the PS3 is really going to cost between $500-600 (because of the brand new Blue-ray technology)...then many people will probably wait for a price drop first (I know I will)...the price tag could certainly hurt Sony in the beginning, it will likely cause "a slow start;" but at the end, people will get the console that offers the best exclusive games (FF13, MGS4, DMC4 - all developed for the PS3) and it seems like Sony will deliver those "must have" titles with their next console

are you gonna post that?
Posted 04/22/2006 2:15pm
wow, i hear u, man. Run for president or something... lol

You make a very good point. I don't forsee sony going out of style anytime soon. They make way better games for ps2 and so on, than they do for xbox. Quite frankly, the only good game for xbox is halo and halo 2. But thats just my opinion.

I think that Nintendo may be able to get slightly more of the market, because of how cheap it is and it is popular as a second console on quite a few forums. Xbox360 and Sony are similar in the way they are both powerful consoles using normal controlers and the Rev gives a new gaming style with its controller but is also very cheap.
I have seen alot of people who say they are expecting to get an Xbox360 and Rev/PS3 and Rev.
