Remember this Sony quote shortly after the unveilment of the DS:

Sony: "With the DS, it's fair to say that Nintendo stepped out of the technical race and went for a feature differentiation with the touch screen. But I fear that it won't have a lasting impact beyond that of a gimmick - so the long-lasting appeal of the platform is at peril as a direct result of that."

Yeah. We all know how that turned out right ;) I remember a similar quote from them regarding Wii. What now Sony? :lol: Your PS3 is owning Wii left and right huh? Not. Nintendo, after 4 generations of gaming bliss, are on their way to the top once again against all odds. NES was amazing, the #1 console, Sega was a worthy competitor during the SNES era, Sony came along during the N64 generation and took Nintendo's crown, Gamecube gen was another let down for Nintendo, and then Wii came along.... Ladies and gentlemen, the NES 2.0 is here. :) Good work Nintendo.

Wait for a cow to say "sales don't matter, good games do", while forgetting that he's got neither anymore.

The major difference between the two games at this point is that one of them can be played.

More like who needs MGS4 when you have Metroid Prime 3: Corruption?  Besides, last I checked MGS3 flopped, and was only AA.

It's too bad Nintendo couldn't have released a decent console. They're going to get to the top again with a mediocore product.

It's not a remake, that would imply that they actually redid the game. It's MGS3 with added content.

Remakes dont deserve AAA unless they are good ones like MGS: TS for the GC which was so much better then the PS1 original imo. Great game worthy of AAA.

And just like in a situation like that, you get those make up points and your grade is changed.
