Inspired by this thread, who currently has the three best musketeers? It can be based on any criteria that you choose.

 

[alf717]

I'm gonna go with Nintendo.

 

[Neoriceisgood]

I only know one non-nintendo dude from the OP, and he tried to sell me DRM.

 

[Snakeyes]

Nintendo's are the most memetic and include the most influential game designer of all time. Pretty easy choice, really.

 

[perorist]

Love Yoshida but gonna go with Nintendo as well.

 

[TheBioLover]

Sony has too many good people to have just three.

 

[SJRB]

Sony. Tretton is my homeboy.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Sony.

 

[statham]

Microsoft. Phil wins.

 

[LudwigB]

Nintendo!

 

[2+2=5]

No kaz?

 

[DaBuddaDa]

No Adam Boyes?

 

[Aaronology]

...why even include Microsoft in this discussion, really?

 

[kadotsu]

Microsoft but only if j'Allard is d’Artagnan

 

[Aureon]

That'd be Sony.
Nintendo puts up the good fight, though.

 

[Zoator]

Pretty much seals the deal, no?

 

[Broken Joystick]

I've yet to see anyone top "Kicking ass and taking names" so it has to be Nintendo.

 

[famousmortimer]

If it was Cerny, Yoshida and Boyes (or Kaz) I would go Sony. But as is in the OP, Nintendo.

 

[Ingeniero]

I'm going with the Mattrick + Spencer + Mehdi trifecta.

 

[LiveFromKyoto]

Anybody voting against Miyamoto hates gaming. But the real answer here is anybody but Microsoft.

 

[Into]

I do not care much for House or Reggie, but House is far less irritating. So Sony


MS guys look like they are actors from the set of Enron: The Movie

 

[Lima]

No kaz?

He is not in the Playstation division anymore.

 

[sibarraz]

I always thought that sony three muskeeters were cerny tretton and hirai, and ms ballmer, mattrick and nelson

 

[Yellowflashdude]

Sony. They're so good, they have to put Cerny in the subs.

 

[Yawnier]

Sony or Nintendo. The three of them on both sides are all quite likable really I find.

 

[Qassim]

Miyamoto is adorable and all sorts of amazing (and an absolute industry treasure), and I love Reggie, and quite a fan of Iwata (his public facing side, at least, questionable decisions etc). But they do sometimes feel a bit out of it, that is also an advantage of Nintendo but I like Sony's current lineup.

Yoshida and Trenton are great, haven't really seen as much of House (at least in the same was as Trenton), Yoshida is always out there and cool 'n stuff.

 

[HamPster PamPster]

House over Cerny? Crazy talk

I don't care if he's not an executive or whatever. He's a musketeer to me damnit!

 

[Hattori]

It has be the triforce trio no doubt, replace house with Kaz and the PS triple would be the second best.

 

[OnPoint]

It's times like these I miss J Allard. Would have made this more of a battle

 

[maltrain]

It should be: Yoshida-Tretton-Kaz and Cerny as D'Artagnan on the Sony team.

Not competition.

I vote for Sony either way.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Sony has the best three at the moment. They are likeable and are hitting all of the right notes at the moment. The execs that best connect with their customers are the Sony execs at this time.

 

[Capital_Five]

Nintendo has the best 3 man combo, but Jack is still my favorite.

 

[Spongebob]

1. Nintendo


2. Sony







3. Microsoft

 

[KAL2006]

Sony has 5 musketeers
Tretton
Bouse
Boyes
Cerny
Yoshida

 

[Het_Nkik]

Nintendo with Bill Trinen as D'Artagnan.

 

[rapid32.5]

no poll ? Sony, MS shouldn't even be there after all the lies and BS.

 

[Toki767]

Nintendo seems to have the most fun.

 

[Snakeyes]

Sakurai is Nintendo's d'Artagnan.

 

[DMiz]

Nintendo. Especially if you swap in Bill Trinen for Reggie.

 

[Menchi]

Sony. However, wondering where Kaz is?

 

[gngf123]

Ahem.

Nintendo.

 

[Heyt]

Nintendo employees are allways funny or amusingly akward. Not counting Reggie in that, though.

But I like Sony's relaxed seriousness more.

 

[War Eagle]

Close between Sony and Nintendo, but I'm going to have to go Sony. Iwata annoys the shit out of me in the Nintendo Direct videos.

Edit: Let's not forget this guy:

 

[TheBioLover]

Cerny himself said Sony's "Three Musketeers" are Cerny, House, and Yoshida.

 

[Psycho_Mantis]

Reggie is a shell of his former self and Iwata has become a joke with his please understands. I think the musketeers for Nintendo should be Shiggy, Sakurai and I don't know.

For me its Sony right now.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

It should be: Yoshida-Tretton-Kaz and Cerny as D'Artagnan on the Sony team.

Not competition.

I vote for Sony either way.

Who's Nintendo's D'Artagnan? Bill Trinen?

 

[olimpia84]

Uhm Nintendo? Nobody outside of GAF knows who those Sony and MS reps are.

 

[krypt0nian]

Sony has 5 musketeers
Tretton
Bouse
Boyes
Cerny
Yoshida

Team Supreme.

 

[Krusenstern]

Cerny himself said Sony's "Three Musketeers" are Cerny, House, and Yoshida.

Don't understand why OP left out Cerny.

 

[Foolworm]

Hint: There are three competitors, and only one of them actually brandishes a sword in the pictures you give.

Nintendo wins, of course. Their PR is top-notch.
