Couldn't they enter the console race even if Sony lives? What do they care about the last place company?

It would require an immense investment for a company to develop a new console and then garner the support needed to compete with two already established corporations. Samsung and Apple could easily bankrupt themselves in that venture.

Fat chance they will, as much as I want to see them making consoles again. They don't have the necessary funds to do it.

Apple competing? LOL, have fun with your $1000 consoles :lol: (Oh, that's right, they have made a console before...Apple Bandai Pippin. But look at how that went.)

I dont wish for Sony to leave, but if a new competitor was to come, I'd be open to it. Its always good to see new ideas.

Nothing. XBox and Wii will live on. Companies who were making PS3 games will just make the games for the 360 and Wii instead. Most likely Apple or someone else would jump into the gaming market. Apple makes pretty good hardware. I'd be curious as to what kind of gaming console they would make.

Don't worry about Apple coming in, if they did they would fail miserably.

Also, Sony is fine and everyone know's it.

Although I like Samsung, they (or Apple) are not going to enter the console market. Like meetroid8 said, it's not going to happen & would be far more risker for them.

And honestly, I don't know why people want Apple out of all companies to enter the gaming division, in which they charge people an arm & a leg for most of their products in which you can get the same stuff that Apple has from other companies for far better & for far less money.

We arent wishing Sony to die, everyone here is just trolling to some degree or another.

I, a sheep since I started gaming when I was 6, would much prefer Sony to stay around. The more competition there is, the better I say.

This is the type of quality we'd see with their games, people aren't THAT stupid.

Their IOS games on phones only succeed because they're 99 cents and they're only meant to be played 5 minutes at a time - that business model wouldn't work on dedicated game consoles.

Apple is in a completely different market.

In your dreams, and mine.

Sega wouldn't be able to survive without someone like sony to compete with. We all know MS isn't trying to compete in the creaton of high qualty games race, and nintendo is going thru a mid life crisis they don't know what they want to do with their system. It would be like sony dying all over again.

Seag made sony and in the same way sega made nintendo too...but it's diffrent now that MS plays a diffrent type of game than the old traditional game companies. Sega couldn't compete with MS the way they did Big N and Sony from generations before.

LOL, those graphics look like they came from a N64 or a PS1 game.

Still, they won't stand a chance against either Nintendo or Microsoft, especially not with the way that they handle their business.

Consoles are too immobile for Apple. It doesn't fit their image. It would have to be a handheld, and that would be too redundant.

What? MS did it and with Apple already having a massive gaming foothold they have a chance at getting in. Samsung I don't think would do it however as that could be a suicide mission.

Pretty sure if Samsung had a console there would be no Japanese games on it. No way would Japanese developers support a Korean console.

doesn't matter if you think Apple is a joke. It's the results and success that talk. Apple owns the tablet space, spurred the smart phone market, a third of all-in-one PCs are iMacs, has over $50 billion in cash and it maybe be able to do for the Smart TV market what it did for smart phones. No joke.

Do you have any idea how much revenue Apple brings in annually and what that company is worth? Somehow I think they can afford to make a few investments that fail.

intriguing idea that maybe Samsung could take Sony's place. How much software or games experience does Samsung have? Do they have the financial clout to enter the console/mobile/handheld market? Hardware experience? It's an interesting idea.

nothing wrong with that. Lemmings and Sheep will finally have some faction to take seriously. :) I don't think Hermits would care, they've seen companies come and go.. Atari, Colecovision, Neo-Geo, Phillips, Panasonic, Sega and maybe Sony.
