@PsychoJosh 'cause Microsoft has a new strategy and James Armstrong said something about the PS4.

[Katzelle3]

@PsychoJosh Many people who played Gamecube weren't really dissapointed by the Wii titles. That's what i wanted to say.

[Katzelle3]

@PsychoJosh No iPhone is the business thing. iPad is the big toy every kid wishes for christmas.

Even when iPad should be the better solution than Netbooks. Steve Jobs talked about that better solution thing.

[Katzelle3]

@PsychoJosh I said Sony and Microsoft didn't have MUCH experience, because you said Nintedo has no experience at all, even when they built their online service for the Wii. Internet was very new to Nintendo, when they built the Wi-Fi Connection and for that early years (2005-2006) it was okay(even if it was lame to XBL). So yeah Microsoft and Sony wouldn't have had much experience when they built their sevices aswell as Nintendo now.

[PsychoJosh]

@Katzelle3 And why do you want to talk about graphics?

[PsychoJosh]

@Katzelle3 Finally I don't give a shit about whether or not a few deluded manchildren liked Zelda or not, those games have stagnated and haven't advanced their formula since 1996. The main people that buy those games are Nintendo fanboys and children that don't have any better systems because of their cheapo parents. Zelda hasn't been good since Ocarina of Time in my opinion. With the other systems you get variety, with the Wii you just get Mario/Zelda/Metroid over and over again...

[PsychoJosh]

@Katzelle3 Also... iPads don't sell for gaming applications. You're thinking about IPHONES not iPads. People buy iPhones because they need smartphones and most people have them so that creates a recursive effect. There is nothing particularly compelling about the iPhone's games which amount to retarded flash games that you can play for free on the internet, hence why they're sold for extremely cheap.

[PsychoJosh]

@Katzelle3 What are you talking about? The original Xbox had Xbox Live too you idiot. It was already good, Halo 2 introduced ideas that they perfected with the 360. The PS2 had limited online features and a few games supported online multiplayer but it didn't have a robust service. The Gamecube had NOTHING in that regard. So no, by that generation Sony and Microsoft already had some experience while Nintendo still has next to none.

@PsychoJosh But let's talk about graphics :)
