Someone else agrees with me that Sony and Nintendo were at one point partners.

I have qutite a few Sony games for my SNES. It's a shame Nintendo decided to rely on Phillips (in more way than one).

I like to imagine what it would be like now if that partnership had gone through. Sony wouldn't have entered the console business with a console of its own, and Microsoft would have never entered since they only entered when they saw the PS brand as a threat. Would it still be Sega and Nintendo duking it out?

Sony could of made a console later because they did want to, and the reason Nintendo went with Philips is because Sony wanted the rights for the games made on the Add-on and Nintendo figured they would backstab Sony before they could Backstab them.

Don't you mean Krazy Ken wanted to? And didn't Sony want rights mostly for the CDs or something?

Who cares if it's old... you people posting saying it's old must be trying to get your post count up or something... cause nobody gives a damn if you heard about it in the past... I didn't know sony where once allied with nintendo and I'm sure many other people didn't..
