Sony ain't doing so hot in Japan either. It's not PS2 days.
Sony is sure as hell doing better than MS in Japan. The US and UK are the only countries were X-Box sells better than PlayStation iirc.
So now only the UK and US are relevant countries?

Nintendo. Losing Mario and Zelda wouldn't be a big deal except to the faithful, which is a group that's getting smaller and smaller. Neither would losing whatever gimmick they come up with for their next consoles.
Microsoft has at least brought a lot of online elements to consoles, made it more social. Would Sony have ever tried to get PSN up to speed if Xbox Live didn't exist? Probably not. And as for Sony, they've brought a lot of great games, including new IPs, and of course their hardware is usually top notch.
This, too. Third party situation is terrible and has been for decades now (man I'm getting old) so they wouldn't be losing much revenue at all. Some of them don't even support the platform anymore (EA).
Personally? Microsoft. By a fucking mile.
Gamers? Microsoft.
The industry? Nintendo.
Well it certainly didn't affect them in PS2 days.
Why wouldn't you play OoT, Metroid Prime or Mario Galaxy ? Just to name a few ....
So he should be ashamed because his opinion doesn't align with yours?Overwhelmingly tragic post. Mario and Zelda are to this date, the greatest IP's this industry has bar say...GTA. To suggest the industry wouldn't miss them is not only numerically wrong, it's a critical misunderstanding of art itself. You should be ashamed..
Nintendo
Mario Galaxy and Twilight Princess are not enough in 10 years and together do not trump other experiences like GTA, Portal, Bioshock, Red Dead, Metal Gear, Uncharted, Mass Effect, Skyrim, Halo, COD, Arkham, Street Fighter IV
I don't think I can consider OoT playable now, it feels a bit old and clunky on the 3DS, but that's just me.
Just put (Microsoft) in the title already.
I've seen it in this topic a few times as well as many other places and it always seemed pretty silly.
Where on earth did M$ come from? It seems quite childish. And if you have have M$, why not $ony? Or anything else like that? All these companies are after your money.
The Gameboy did that far earlier and to a far greater degree than the PS1 or PS2.
If you want to limit it to consoles, then the NES wins. It revived a dead industry.
I am not talking about now but when it was released, and even so you would have at least to play the game to find it old and clunky xD
btw. loved it on the 3DS - the games has aged well i would say.

MS, not even a contest.

I dont know why but it bugs the shit out of me for some reason when people use the hyphen in Xbox.
It's been M$ for years, but seemed to get more use with the 360 pay online (that the competitors didn't have), and the proprietary overpriced accessories (i.e. hard drive for 360)
because they throw money around for exclusives and timed dlc etc, they did it alot at the start of the gen. Moneyhats!
Well I get that to a degree, but Nintendo are definitely not shy of accessories and Sony have shown with their propriety memory cards they aren't averse to the same. It's ony really the online
And Sony or Nintendo don't?
Where's the lie though?
Microsoft hands down. The only thing they've brought to the table is online gaming and someone would eventually pick that one up if they didn't arrive. But everything else they've introduced has been leaving nothing but bitter aftertaste.
