PS3 games more fun than Wii's, says Stringer

Sony Corp. Chairman Sir Howard Stringer has gone on record to state that he feels PlayStation 3 software is “infinitely more fun” than titles available on Nintendo’s Wii console.

Speaking during an interview with UK tabloid The Guardian, Stringer insisted he is "much more confident" regarding the success of the company’s next-generation console, which for the first time outsold the Wii in Japan last month.

Focusing specifically on the Wii, which is currently leading the next-generation console race around the globe, Stringer insisted "PlayStation 3 will come into its own because its [high-end games] are infinitely more fun, demanding and exciting" than those available on Nintendo’s machine.

Finally, and perhaps unsurprisingly, he revealed that he was “happy the Wii seems to be running a bit short of hardware,” referring to the ongoing supply shortages that have been plaguing the machine since its inception in late 2006. heres the link: http://www.psu.com/PS3-games-more-fun-than-Wiis,-says-Stringer--a0002163-p0.php

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing21d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9221d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
