Who else thinks that Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony should team up to creat a super gaming system? I think it would rock.

I'm not quite sure. I don't know enough about all of these companies. If you ask me, I say that we make more dreamcast games since I can't afford an N-64 at the moment. Posted Image

------------------
A hundred days have made me older since the last time that I saw your pretty face, A thousand lies have made me colder, and I don't think I can look at this the same, all the miles that seperate, disappear now when I'm dreamin' of your face. I'm here without you baby, but you're still on my lonely mind, I think about you baby and I dream about you all the time. I'm here without you baby, but you're still with me in my dreams, and tonight girl, it's only you and me.
Whatever happens..happens.

The Pippen was Apple's attempt at making a game console. I hear they sold around 20 of them in Japan....I need info on that thing...anyone got a link to some? :looks around:

Nintendo+Sony= sweet

If you throw Micro$haft into the equation the fun level goes to negative infinity. Microsoft is just..... no.

More attention should be paid to making top quality games for computers, consoles should dissapear.

Well, I wouldn't count on that happening.

As far as Microsoft, as long as they don't design the controller, all is fine.

I was thinkin' that Nintendo would take care of the graphics and benchmarking, Sony would provide the games, and Microsoft would provide the hardware, such as the case design, hard drive, chipset, all that kinda stuff. The controller should be a group effort on the other hand. All three companies should include a specific design aspect to the controller. But, thats just my opinion.

Microsoft makes software. They provide nothing.
Nintendo has the best controlers.
Sony and Nintendo have great games, so combine the two libraries.

If they all combined, there wouldnt be any competition to produce anything better. So we would have an amazingly expensive system that sucks. Wow.

Nintendo hasn't made a good game since the days of the N64.

The controllers for the Gamecube and X-Box are atrocities.

The gamecube controllers are fine. The X-Box controllers are ass huge, but other than that I like them also.

dude3, I had to change my name..I lost my password.

This is the only topic we've stayed on topic for a while! Wow..thanks Shinobi Posted Image also, What about that game system that had duck hunt and the cool star wars game and mario. It was like..one of the original, had the little rectangular controlers. I like those. But, other than that. N-64's my favorite.

Im not bothered by the XBOX's original huge controllers, Im used to them now. GCN's controllers are the most comfortable I have ever used. But, I absolutly refuse to use the new XBOX controllers from Japan, you know, the super tiny ones. I hate those SO very, very much.

Its basically only an evolution of games Saxxy. The more realistic and complicated games get, the more buttons there are needed to control.

That's not true, just go to the library and rent New Computers for Dummies and you'll be fine.
