So far we've already seen a fair bit of what Sony and Microsoft have to offer, and while the public is busy being blown away by MGS4, Nintendo is being their usual tight lipped selves. As much as I hate to say it, sometimes their problem is that they don't generate enough hype for themselves. Yeah, people were interested in the Revolution controller, and are still curious about trying it out, but if they don't show off some games that make me want to open my wallet for them, I'll find it very difficult to maintain my interest in the long run.
    Super Smash Bros 3, nuff said. That game alone is enough reason for me to buy the Revolution.

    It's one of the games that probably will be released at the same time as the Revolution itself.

    May be good for you, but what about those off us that hated the first two games. I'm also more interested in seeing how these games are going to use the controller than just seeing it. I want some solid info on the games and Nintendo isn't providing it as usual. It makes it a little tough to get excited for them.

    That said, my order of preference for the next gen looks like this for now:
    1)Sony
    2)Nintendo (only for the downloadable older games at this point)
    3)Well there isn't a 3rd actually. Microsoft has yet to show me anything that interests me at all, and the original Xbox had no exclusives I was interested in either, so.....

    If you hate SSBM, you're a very, very evil being. BACK OFF, FOUL CREATURE!!!

    Bleh, then just wait and find out. Most people won't be able to afford buying any of these consoles as soon as they are released anyways.

    No, so DMKA only like one system.

    1)Sony
    2)Microsoft
    3)Nintendo (its not that I don't like them, but none of there games appeal to me. Only series of games of Nintendo's that I like is Zelda, and everything else is just lame.)

    I'm already planning on putting the money away to get a PS3 at launch. It's not so much having to wait to find out what games are going to show up on the Revolution that bugs me, it's that Nintendo doesn't seem the slightest bit concerned that the other two companies are already winning over some gamers with titles that have been shown, while Nintendo seems confident that their system will sell based on the classic games and the controller alone. The classic games may play a role in it for some, but I do think they're hurting themselves by not showing the games that are going to sell the system. I mean let's face it, a lot of people probably decided on buying a PS3 as soon as they laid eyes on MGS4 (or DMC4, RE5, Sonic, etc.).

    Yes, they were founded a good 94 years before the NES was released.

Both Sony and Microsoft concentrate on technology and allow others to produce games for their console, whereas Nintendo do both. I don't think that shows a difference in motive, just a difference in business strategy.
    That could be applied to the current generation of consoles, but what about the ones from the past? Nintendo made awesome games on the NES and SNES, as well as on the original Gameboy and GBC (especially Mario--a lot of people hated Sunshine, but you can't say that games like Super Mario World, Mario Bros. 3, etc.) when they were absolutely dominant in the industry.

    I said after the SNES, meaning I loved the SNES. Still one of if not the single best system ever, in my opinion.

    Nintendo's finished. It will make one last jolt like a dead movie monster before their crappy consoles and handhelds are finally put down for good. Then Beethoven's Ode to joy will be heard.

    At least Nintendo's consoles are more likely by far not to break if you accidentally drop it.

    Personally, I think Nintendo is the best, simply because I think that their systems get high quality games more frequently than the other two competitors. Then comes Sony, because they do come out with a gem every once in a while (true, it is usually an FF game, but it is still usually a Playstation only game). Finally we get Microsoft, who never should have moved to the console market in the first place (IMHO).

    But looking at things from a less biased standpoint, which system is better really depends on what you're looking for. Nintendo is tops in puzzle/party games, action/adventure games, and all games of a less than serious nature. Playstation is the system to get for good RPGs. And the XBox is nice if you like racing games. I might be a little off in this assessment, but that's what I've noticed for the various systems.

    Oh, yes, and Nintendo is the undisputed champion of the handheld market. No other company can come close to them, because they can't compete with the sheer genius of Nintendo's marketing strategy in the handheld market. Put simply, for years no one except Nintendo tried to release a handheld game. Game Gear was nice, but it drained batteries way too quickly and it died pretty much the same time as the Genesis. Meanwhile Nintendo kept building its library of excellent handheld games. Then, in recent years, some other companies arrived and began putting their own handheld machines on the market. So Nintendo makes the GBC and eventually the GBA. With the GBA, not only did gamers get access to an entire new library of excellent games, but they can also play the entire library of their old GB games on the GBA as well. Backwards compatibility let the GBA wipe out every competitor out there with the sheer number of excellent titles. Now the DS comes out, once again with the ability to play previous games. While it would have been better had it been able to play all GB games, even letting it just play the GBA games gives it access to far more high quality titles than the PSP once its released. True, most people still have their GBAs (to play their old GB games if nothing else), but for people who don't have a handheld system, the DS has a much larger selection than the PSP. If Nintendo keeps this up, they should be able to have a monopoly on the handheld gaming market for a good many years to come. If only they had employed this strategy in their console systems...
