Its not.
Its cheaper to make games (itt:risks) on the 3DS. The 3DS will be cheaper. Kids will want a 3D machine.
It was over the second Sony announced a 2D screen, and most likely lost once they announced the specs/potential cost of the machine.
The issue is that HHG is intentionally baiting fanboyism through the articles headline. Sidar's objective viewpoint is already voided due to the HHG's bias.
"finally getting sick of the 3rd party software sales"
Nintendo launches 3DS with 90% of titles from third parties.
Capcom brings Megaman Legends 3, 2 Resident Evil games to 3DS.
Konami brings Metal Gear Solid.
Keep on denying it.
Yes, we do need classics remade in 3D
Makes me want to buy a copy just in order to piss him off.
source on that 600 million?
And i didn't see Nintendo losing millions on their other divisions, like for eg. smart phones that nobody bought.
The only thing that got destroyed last generation was Sonys bank balance.
Definition of insanity etc.....
Yes, but why would you want to have cheaper niche titles squeezed out of the market, due to development costs?
Thats whats gonna happen with the PSP2, haven't you been being paying attention?
Not gonna pay, for it.
or, Nintendo get paid. As in a pricing advantage yet again, despite Sony repeating the same mistake twice.
No load times.
So thats multi touchscreen to Apple, Flash cards to Nintendo, and game announcements to the PS3.
COD = Beat in sales by New Super Mario Brothers Wii
GTA4 = Beat in sales by Mario Kart Wii
Im sorry, you were saying HolyOrangeCows?
@Deepinterludium, dude, why do you even bother with that sort of comment. One bubble down, four to go.
@Zez, quite your propaganda smear dude.
Its 3 to 5 hours average with everything cranked up. NOT 3 hours with everything on.
Repeating a lie doesn't make it true.
The only fail is you, for not reading the article.
Its not true, the Wired article was updated.
Because its attracting a high percentage of trolls in this comment section.
The article must be absolutely god awful in order to attract this type of readership(wait, i am also here).
This may be the funniest comment i have ever read.
"HOPEFULLY, EVERYTHING YOU SAY IS WRONG BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW THE NINTENDO 3DS WILL BE A REALLY GOOD SELLER. WE ARE TALKING OF NINTENDO YOU STUPID A*****E ....THE ONE YOU GREW UP WITH, JUST ADMIT IT EVEN IF YOU BECAME A STUPID PLAYSTATION LOVER. YOU REALLY SUCK AT WRITING ARTICLES SO JUST GO MAKE YOURSELF A BOTTLE OF CHICKEN SOUP AND DISAPEAR !"
Yes, ignorance. "best hope at regaining its now fading relevance -- is finally coming" fading relevence? cmon man, thats bullcrap and you know it.
"depth in a small screen is like a Lamborghini in a school's speed zone. Folks won't care." Opinions without a source. So why the hell are people willing to buy a larger IPod for $500 then?
"The product's label warns that children under six shouldn't use the 3-D functionalit...
BREAKING NEWS - Business analysts causing doubt in investors minds is nothing new, and neither is ignorance about the videogame industry.
DAMN IT, Its def. gonna be more expensive in Australia but they don't allow preorders outside of EU.
:-(
"core"
so nothing for the Wii then? Although we got 16bit remakes of Contra, Gradius and Castlevania I would of loved to see something new from Konami.
Concluding with a typical "screw third parties" quote as usual.
