  • how is your reception in your iCoffin Steve?

  • @NathanGNU if steve jobs was an idiot,how he made all of his money,you dont got shit compared to him,so i will fuck your bitch ass mom,cause shes the whore who made you,a retard prick!

  • FUTURE IS NOT FOR OVERPRICED PRODUCT !

  • I just love how fanboys are so butthurt in these comments.

  • ipod and mp3 players weren't competing with tower records and music stores, and ipad and e-readers weren't competing with borders and book stores. they just demonstrated that you don't need them, and the public agreed. it's the same thing with smartphones and traditional gaming handhelds

  • He's right though. Nintendo is feeling it more strongly now that the iOS devices have spread even more (and the games being made for them are sucking less). Hence the poor 3DS sales...

    I like Nintendo, but their handhelds are 'one trick ponies'. I'd rather have what is basically a computer in my pocket that ALSO plays games... Rather than a portable that does ONE thing.

  • i've played games on the ipod touch and yeah it has good graphics but games are kinda lame, i mean good graphics does not make a game a good one, and i'm sorry ya'll but the DS( ds, dslite, dsi) has sold over 125 million units world wide so actually the ds is considered to be the best selling hand held gaming device of all times

  • Steve Jobs is a great talker. He's a marketing person who twists facts and statistics to sell his products. I can't take anything he says seriously.

  • @paunchstevenson It appears from your string of previous comments that you're an apple hating troll that makes sweeping statements with no evidence to support them. I suggest you find happiness somewhere else in life:P

  • Steve Jobs? Talking about gaming? Now that's funny.

  • This is bull shit!! Yea, some of the games on the ipod touch have good graphics, but the games just plain SUCK!!!! and also apple needs to alow Adobe to there shit cause im getting tired of paying for music

  • Wait, DS sold 135 million and PSP sold 60 million so that can't be right. Not even iPods, iPads and iPhones combined beat the DS figure alone (total iOS figure is 120 million). How did the DS sell so freaking much?

  • @eatcarpet Propably because the DS has been out for six years. And by iPod do you mean all iPod's or just iPod Touch? If you mean all iPods. Then your facts about the DS out selling the iPod is false because Apple has sold over 260 million iPods.and when you combine iPhone's, iPod Touch, and iPad Apple has sold over 125 million of them.

  • @MrBob4apples Of course I meant iPod touch since other iPods aren't installed with iOS.

  • @SpeedySpyro try looking at epic citadel, way better level than a psp

  • ty physics

    try playing mw2 or Fallout or Left 4 dead 2 on an iPod touch. Answer, aint gonna happen. Jobs needs to accept that there are things PCs and consoles do better than his products

  • @Johnston9234 there is bad company 2 on ipod touch...

  • @coder12thinc Have fun playing Pacman and Monkeyball =/

    A touchscreen just isn't an ideal interface for serious games. Hence the lack of serious games on the iPhone. There's a reason gaming consoles haven't removed all of the buttons, and why in many situations, the best touchscreen solution is to simply reproduce buttons within the touch screen (ie on-screen keyboards). Graphics and processing power alone don't even come close to making a device a good gaming console. It's about the interface.

  • @physicssquirrel actually it plays as good as with mouse. i never understood aiming with a fu*king joystick

  • Wow. Just wow.

    That's like saying that the iPod Touch is the best camera, because it outsells Canon in unit volume.

    Just because the iPod touch (an MP3 player!) sells like crazy and happens to have a camera or play games doesn't mean it's a superior or even comparable gaming platform to the DS or PSP. I highly doubt you're actually cutting into their marketshare.

    Sorry Jobs. If you even cared about what's happening in reality outside your ego-bubble, you'd get some real statistics to present.

  • @physicssquirrel If Apple isn't cutting into Nintendo's or Sony's shares, why would Sony make an ad specifically targeting the iPhone/iPod Touch as a gaming device? They're putting in a hell of a dent for Sony and Nintendo. You just can't beat a 1ghz A4 processor and a Retina display with your PSP or DS. Also keep in mind the screens being used here. Not only are the graphics on the iOS platforms good, they annihilate the competition's graphics. Have fun with your plastic DS and PSP toys though.

  • @physicssquirrel

    I know many people who have bought ipot touches, not only for music and stuff, but also for gaming, so on one side he may be right.

    Just look carefully, sony may soon release a psp phone, which runs android.

  • @angelusp777 Wait, with Android? I didn't hear about that part. That's pretty neat!

  • @pascbjumper2

    LOL, which games does android have? LOL, compared to IOS? LOL

  • @angelusp777 I never said hat Android has more games out than iOS. It;s just that the number one reason why people seem to stay away from Macs is that it runs so few games, that's all. I really don't have much against the iPhone, it's a pretty well evolved phone with a plethora of features. It's probably one of the best developed phone OS yet, though Android seems to be making its way up there pretty fast.

  • @physicssquirrel You obviously have no idea what you're talking about or any of the capabilities of iOS devices as they currently exist. Go out, get some knowledge, and then come back. Whether you like it or not, the iPhone/iPod touch has more graphical and computing power than either the PSP or DS, and it can do a hell of a lot more with a more polished operating environment.

  • @fpsBeaTt :\ I'm aware of their hardware capabilities. What is more relevant to gaming though is the interface. Why is it that real game developer studios that make actual good games don't develop for the iPhone? I can only assume it's because either people don't want to pay real money (as in more than $5) for a game that's tied to their phone, or it's because a 4inch touchscreen with no other form of input as a gaming interface is hard for most gamers to take seriously. I'm guessing the latter.

  • @physicssquirrel Um, gameloft, EA, Treyarch, and many others are developing for the iOS platform, and I can say from experience with all game input devices the iPhone and iPad compete quite well, and actually feel better imo than a PSP or DS. For example, you can play an RTS or FPS on an iPhone or iPad far easier than a DS or PSP. There's nothing wrong with the interface, and I suspect you actually haven't tried gaming on said input devices. As I said, go out and get some knowledge.

  • @physicssquirrel Except that he never said anything about it being the best, just that it outsells other gaming devices.

  • @physicssquirrel "The best camera is the one that's with you"

  • @physicssquirrel the ipod touch is a handheld ..... they are selling it as a handheld ...

    go to the apple site and see it by ure self

  • @zawette Still, if we're talking about gaming. Both Sony and Nintendo> Apple.

  • @Luis11717 no sony>apple>nintendo

    3ds SUCKS ALOT .. it has no good game

  • @zawette Disagreed. Apple doesn't have a single iPad/iPod Touch exclusive I've played better than Nintendo 3DS' exclusives.

    I've seen a Halo and CoD ripoff, and that's it. Most are casual games, they don't beat TLoZ: Ocarina of Time 3DS, Super Mario Land 3D, Mario Kart, upcoming KID ICARUS!

  • @Luis11717 the zelda game is just a remake .. super mario land 3d is a child guy .... mario kart is like all the mario kart games . kid icarus dosen't interrest me at all ...

    NOW to the iphone games ...

    chaos rings series .. final fantasy series ... infinity blade 1,2 , waarm gun , shadow guardian , sonic 4 ... and many many many other games

  • @zawette I still prefer Nintendo and Sony games. Also... did you just say Super Mario is for kids?

  • @Luis11717 yes i said it ...... anyway i was nintendo gamer 10 years ago .... but my last nintendo console/handheld is the gamecube ..... wii have no good games , just some few exceptions and nintendo 3ds tooo ...

  • @zawette How dare you?! Anyways, I sort of agree. Wii has Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2, Skyward Sword and Metroid Prime 3, apart from that everything is sort of meh. Also the stupid motion control sucks dick.

    My point still stands though. Apple exclusives are nowhere near the quality as Nintendo exclusives, if we're comparing them as a whole and not based on a particular system.

  • @physicssquirrel i think he meant in regards to online gaming acquisition, and he might have been right. I haven't bothered to look up the numbers but in that context the idea seems plausible. And apple has been pushing for greater online software acquisition for a bit now in their products so that leads me to think that is what he meant.

  • He's referring to game sales not hardware sales.

  • @Fluidshine he just said " Nintendo and Sony "Portable Game Players" "

  • DS Sold 125 Million

    iPod Touch Sold 45 Million

    Result?

    STFU

  • @TechnoFou iPod can do everything and more than a DS (and you'l be called a nerd/butthurt for using a DS)

    Result?

    Steve jobs says STFU

  • @TechnoFou

    go and check their rate of sales right now...

  • @TechnoFou DS has been on sale since 2004 and the first version of iPod touch was launched in 2007. Also if im not wrong, he was talking about the year's selling

  • @TechnoFou dont you think you should add up the iphones?

  • @TechnoFou DS sucks...ipod sucks and psp sucks !!!!

  • Combined? That's a real success. This type of things happens when the owner of the company sits down with employee and study what and how other then just thinking they know everything and making crappy gadgets unfit and...

  • Lets see ya do it without adobe Jobs

  • steve jobs owns a pc

  • @lomaticc007 lol now he's awesome!
