So Nintendo posts a 707 million dollar profit and they are in trouble? MS and Sony would love to have those numbers. And would also love to not been in the negative on the hardware R and D as well.
There is quite a bit of content out there. I having been pm'ing some wii owners to get a list of must buy games and I think I have about 40 titles I will be picking up. The Conduit and MW reflex looks like loads of fun.
I think that we will see more great third party g...
Sony is not the exlclusive patent holder on Blu ray. They are one of many. Phil Harrison stated that in 2006.

When you say all companies I am assuming you are meaning companies in the console business.
The article is about life to date losses in the gaming division. Some of the comments are about Sony losing money as whole. Which has been true for the last four quarters in a row. AS A WHOLE.
Certainly you were not suggesting that ALL companies that sell eletronics are losing money because of a world wide recession. That is not true. Samsung posted record profits. Sharp posted a profit....
I need to learn how to read? Below is your comment:
" was more of the lines saying Sony is bigger an got more money because they own alot more then Nintendo does, if you knew how to read, then you would know what I said.
If Sony games an the PS3 start doing bad, they got movies, cds and much more to fall back on to support them and Nintendo doesn't really have that kind of support. "
Those are your words that you posted after I PROVED that even ...
Nintendo does not take risks? That is entertaining. The Wii was expected to fail with Motion controls. In fact, most third partys were slow to develop for the Wii because they did not expect it to do well.
For those that actually followed Nintendo before the Wii launched, know that most people were skeptical about the Wii even having a chance.
Motion controls were a HUGE RISK for Nintendo. You can only say otherwise because of hind sight. Nintendo bet the consol...
Too funny! Can I get some 'typical fanboy response' templates from you two? Man that would save me the time of typing.
I could just import my fanboy comment/response template to my post.Then get agrees/disagrees.
Thanks for summing up n4g.
Yup. Its all about the games. I like this site for the all of the gaming news in one site, but get annoyed at the fanboy stupidity I have to deal with. Wii games, ps3 games, 360 games, pc games.
I can buy Lost and Damned and Gay Tony on a stand alone disk that does not need GTA4 to play. How is that DLC?
One thing that is lacking with many n4g types: Critical thinking skills.
I am shocked at how bad it is here. Good post oobob.
I will respond to you even though it is obvious you did not read my first post to understand why I did the response.
Nintendo is shining this generation of consoles in terms of profitability. In spite of that most people on this site refuse to mention Nintendo in any other way other than in a negative fashion. Look at the comments..sore losers waiting for Nintendo to fall, refusing to give credit where credit is due. If your reading comprehension skills were up to par you would...
Who are you to decide what the gaming community should and should not be? I await an intelligent response.
I hope Sony can recoup the massive losses(3 billion) they took on the hardware R&D over ten years. Hopefully the yen comes down in strength to help.
Well, if you study the sum of all of the quarterly reports for this year it will be obvious that as of the most recent quarterly filings ,that Nintendos YTD profit is higher than MS and Sony's gaming divisions. Of course, we are about to end another quarter so something MIGHT change. I can provide you links and other detailed information if you wish.
I follow Sony, MS, and Nintendo from the financial angles. Since so many of you on n4g.com are oblivious to what is really going...
In other news...Nintendo still makes more money than Sony and MS own gaming divisions even after the slide.
I just read the Game Informer article on Epic Mickey. It looks pretty fun. It has some things in common with Okami, you know that game dont you Sony fanboys? Critically acclaimed and yet hardly anyone bought it.
Man the list of Wii must own titles keeps on growing.
If you guys only care about graphics what are you doing console gaming? That is the poor mans Porsche of HD gaming.
Too bad I only tolerate the ps3 controller. 360 version for me. Man if Sony ever updates the controller I would probably go with Sony for everything and leave my 360 behind.
Pc version hands down.
These articles are getting old. As an owner of a launch 60gb ps3 (minus the fanboy stupidity) and a 3 year old 360 ( what I am on my first one still????), I can say that the 360 had plenty of exclusive games for 2009.
You Sony guys with big mouths are annoying. Where were you at launch?
As a true gamer and not a fanboy I can say the 360 has some great exclusives. Sony has more, but so what.Its about the games chumps. The year the ps3 launched there were hardly any games. I kn...
You might want to rethink that. Netlix is very good for Sony. You also underestimate the allure of streaming video to people.
"It only does everything"? Except stream Netlfix like Sonys own Blu Ray players?
If Sony wants to be the media hub they intend to be they need to do this. Consider Netlix on the ps3 another reason to own one.
I just realized that someone is going to make an n4g name of '4.7billion' , much like you see those fools that have 'rrod' and 'fiftyfourprecent' as their names.
