reno Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Sony PlayStation CEO Jack Tretton has stuck the knife into Nintendo's approach handheld gaming today, stating that it is nothing more than a way for parents to grab free time for their kids, and that no adult would ever want to be seen with one of Nintendo's devices: "Our view of the 'Game Boy experience' is that it's a great babysitting tool, something young kids do on airplanes, but no self-respecting twenty-something is going to be sitting on an airplane with one of those," Tretton told CNN. "He's too old for that." http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2011/04/08/playstation-chief-nintendo-makes-%E2%80%98babysitting-tools%E2%80%99/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erick Blasco Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Ah Jack Tretton. Just another reason I'm proud to have never owned any Playstation products in my lifetime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamerGuy Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 Except a lot of them do, especially females. And what about blasting the Wii because it didn't appeal to hardcore gamers, then they make the Playstation Move? Haha, ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl Malone Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I have a PS3 and i love it. I have a wii and i love it. Wii is the funnest shit to play with your friends especially when you're drunk or something. N64 and Gamecube as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 Gamecube had an amazing collection of games but the sales sucked. Wii had by far the worst game selection in a system ever but the sales were historic. Go figure. I can't blame Nintendo for changing its fanbase from hardcore gamers to casual because crappy family friendly games (besides Zelda, Fire Emblem, etc) make sales.
