Sony and Microsoft to drop out of console race next generation? - 09-27-08

This is no hard evidence that a PS4 or new Xbox console will be non-existent, but the figures expressed here are worth taking into account. Alex St. John, CEO & Founder of WildTangent (a PC game network), seems to think that after the PS3 and Xbox 360 have come to an end, Microsoft and Sony...

Re: Sony and Microsoft to drop out of console race next generation?

I see Metaknight18's point, this COULD be a very bad thing...Sony and Micro are what pushed the Wii to be great, with them gone Wii will stick to the same thing it's been doing for awhile now. By automatically defaulting to party games. (which suck, but get bought anyway >_>; )

Wii won't have to make much effort to be any better, I fear it will sit in the same spot as it is for a very long time if it doesn't have anything to compete against...Oh lord, of all the games I would NEVER want would be a cross over party game, thats hell on earth. D:

Re: Sony and Microsoft to drop out of console race next generation?

It is true that Microsoft and Sony are making a lot of money but they are losing more than they make. Also, it is true that Sony and Microsoft have lost billions that they may never get back, but that was true for Nintendo when the gamecube was released. So, Sony and Microsoft may make a come back just as Nintendo did, you never know what the future holds...

Personally I would not want to see only 1 Console out there. There should never be a monopoly on anything, having options is a good thing!

Sony's gonna come up with a new system, anyways, because they can't just keep on losing money over the PS3 forever. Either that, or they'll stop producing them. But think about it, having so many different developers/producers come to Nintendo? I would pee my pants in joy.
But that would make Nintendo a Monopoly.

Monopoly = BAD.

Can you explain the meaning of "Monopoly"?

If someone tries to make a joke relating to the board game, I'll slap 'em. I'm in a bad mood.

Was there ever any doubt?

Nintendo finally decimates the competition once and for all.

Aye Nintendo!

A monopoly is when a certain company has complete control over the market of a specific product. A company that is a monopoly has no competition, which can lead to things like products being produced in lower quality or higher in price.

If all this is true, I wouldn't be surprised that SEGA come out with a system made form people form both sides of Sony and Microsoft!
