As long as Sony don't copy Nintendo's worthless software line-up I don't really care what they do.Elutheria
Nintendo's worthless line up? Did I miss something? You must be talking about the third party games no?
[QUOTE="ThePlothole"][QUOTE="tomarlyn"]Sorry, who's Koller?tomarlyn
Sony Computer Entertainment of America's Director of Hardware and Marketing. John Koller. He made some interesting remarks on the 3DS in an IGN interview..
I actually think Sony is more likely to release a direct competitor to the iphone instead anyway, with its Sony Ericsson line. If Wii 2 is 3d, after the PS3 3D update, who's going to be copying who? Not that I care i thought gc's hardware supported 3D but that feature wasnt really used, and since wii is gc 1.5 maybe theres already a 3D feature on the wii like the gc?Oh yes 3DS got 3D, Touch Screen and Acclerometer, and Sony can't get those techonogies to PSP since it would be ripoff.People.... market lives with ripoffs, without them we would stand in same place, it's hard to be inovative.
3d - On the new Sony Bravia TVs. I personally think its stupid on a handheld.
Touch screen gaming - *looks at Sony mobiles*
Accelormeter - *looks at sony mobiles*
They'll do something along the lines of ...
"Well, we've been working on 3D without glasses in a handheld since 1997, we just felt like it was appropriate to show the consumer when we were ready."
Why with a 4D handheld with the power of teh cell which can display games in 4D running at 1080p and 120 frames per second. (Actually, if it had the graphics of a PSP, that last part wouldn't be too hard with the cell :P)

1. Gamecube didn't come with dual analogs and in-house rumble without Sony to set the precedent. It goes both ways. Welcome to technology.
2. Wouldn't Sony have "copied" DS by now? It's been like 5 years.
3. Sony announced 3D support for the PS3 before the 3DS was announced, so technically we can't claim that Sony is "copying" 3D.
Half-Way
i seriously dont believe that, because nintendo would have included their OWN invention in their next controller, sony was simply quicker, because they copied the whole thing.
other then that, there is really not much to be said :)
Wait, what? The PS1 had dual analog and rumble. Who the hell did they "copy"? :?3d - On the new Sony Bravia TVs. I personally think its stupid on a handheld.

N64 as they had analog controller on Trident and also rumble feature with rumble pack plugged in.As we all know sony pretty much copies everyone els . So what do you think sony will steal from 3ds? i hear they might make a psp a phone series like iphone . so may be different .

Actually Sony has been demoing games in pseudo 3D for a while now, so it would be more of a case of Nintendo copying Sony than vice versa.

We're talking about dual analog and built-in rumble, which those have nothing to do with. Try again :|

The fact is that Nintendo were the first to standardize both an analog component on a console controller and rumble on a console, regardless of whether or not it was "built in" - Its the same thing as Move and the Wiimote with MotionPlus.
The Move controller is literally just the same as the Wiimote with MotionPlus in one unit. I would not be surprised to see the next Sony handheld carry over ideas from the DS and potentially from the 3DS.

Where it was an optional add-on don't you think it is a bit of a stretch to call it standard?

Both the Dualshock and the Rumble Pak came in 1997 :? But I would say there's certainly a difference between having an add-on component and having something built in. That is of significance, like it or not. That being said, using dual analog =/= copying Nintendo's analog. At any rate, what did Sony "copy" with the PSP? If we're to assume something they release around the same time as their competition (rumble) means they copied it, then the PSP had to copy the DS in some way. How did it?[QUOTE="Haziqonfire"]

So is Sony's Analogue controller and Rumble Controller which where not released untill 98 (rumble was 98)if i remember correctly which was several years after PSX and where not the stanard. Only several games utilized Ananlogue controllers and the only which i remember which had it as the standard set up rather than as a 2nd thought was ape escape!!

I dont need to try again :-) Then we'll use the DualShock 2. Which was standard and released before Nintendo ever had built in dual analog and rumble. Yes you do need to try again.i dont even see how this is even gonna work...3d with out the glasses? That ds is gonna cost an arm and a leg
parallax barriers, look it up :wink: i would be surprised if it cost more than $150 at launch. well prepare to be surprised, im prediciting $250 at launch minium.[QUOTE="Skittles_McGee"][QUOTE="Half-Way"]Wait, what?

And then Sony put in 2 analogs as well as a rumble built into the controller. And lo and behold, the gamecube was built without "packs" and had two analog sticks. This is in contrast to the Dreamcast, which was built with rumble and memory packs in the controller just like the N64. Gamecube also copied the PS1's front-loading memory cards. The Saturn used a cartridge and the N64 used in controller memory packs. Nintendo chose to copy Sony's design again. Nintendo didn't have to release a gamecube controller with in house rumble and front loading memory cards. They could have just used their old method.
But they didn't. "Copying" goes both ways.
Epic signature :lol:, they could also say that the Psp2 can run games in native 720 and 75 to 80 frames per second while they're at it, but now seriously, making fun of Ken Kutaragi's quotes is getting old, its not so funny anymore.3DPSP... But they will have to type it first as the 4DPSP.

Yes but the DS has had two in the past year, and then it's successor is on the way next year. :P[QUOTE="Ragnarok1051"][QUOTE="Shirokishi_"]

Atleast the DS models actually have change!!!
A camera and bigger screens?
Probably the same way Nintendo ""stole"" the idea of adding 3D functionality to their system's hardware. Wait sorry, because it's on a handheld, it is teh innovative.
The PSP plays UMD (disc) games/movies, web browser, internet radio, RSS feeds, plays music, connectivity with the PS3 (remote play), the psn store, etc. and the new PSP GO is download only, just like the DS...no, wait.I just feel like asking, how did Sony copy the DS in the past?

I agree, Sony simply can't win. If this was the other way around with Nintendo backing 3D gaming, showing off Wii games in 3D, bringing 3D to all Wii's in an update and then Sony came out and announced that the next PSP will be in 3D without glasses. Would people say Sony was original? NO. Credit where credit is due. Sony was the first of the big three to use 3D and now Nintendo has jumped on the bandwagon.Probably the same way Nintendo ""stole"" the idea of adding 3D functionality to their system's hardware.

[QUOTE="Ragnarok1051"][QUOTE="nintendo-4life"] DS lite was by far the biggest improvement.nintendo-4life
As far as I know the lite only made it smaller. Was there anything else?
DS lite improvements: Sleek new look Smaller handheld Brighter screens Bigger stylus Longer battery life best buttons in any goddamn handheld device out there.isint that more of an opinion. Also DS3 is adding anolog isint that copying the psp. I swear I hate when people think certain companies are innocent and never copy off eachother. Its complete bs.

Here's a link with Satoru Iwata talking about Nintendo embedding 3D capability into the GameCube in case they wanted games that support stereo3D...
"Here's an interesting bit of trivia from Nintendo's financial results briefing. When asked for his opinion on 3D technology in games, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata stated that he felt 3D technology wasn't suited to multiplayer or family-oriented games, which is what Nintendo have been primarily focused on.
However, he went on to reveal that the idea of developing 3D games on a home console has been tossed around at Nintendo before, and that there were even measures taken to help realize it on the Gamecube if the need ever arose.
"In fact there have already been discussions for a possibility of a 3D video game for a long time," stated Iwata. "To tell you the truth, GameCube is secretly designed to load graphical circuits which display graphics for right and left eyes respectively, for a future possibility of realizing 3D gaming experience. So actually we have had interest on this technology, but I have some doubt about everyone needing glasses to play."
As final note, he added: "To wrap up, we have interests but are also aware that there are so many hurdles to overcome, thus we don't believe every kind of game will become 3D environment in no time.""

.... The PSP and DS both have 4 models bro :P
Yes but the DS has had two in the past year, and then it's successor is on the way next year. :Pthe ds successor is a different handheld so that doesnt count as anything towards releasing a reinovation of another model...in other words psp=4 ds=4 they both did many different models of the same handheld sorry to burst your bubble man
Virtual boy was such a success :lol:

Lol'ing won't change the fact that Ninty was doing 3D in the 80's and 90's.
Well, seeing as how sony unveiled 3D for ps3 first, we could even say nintendo is copying them, sony would just be putting their ps3 3d idea into their psp. See how that works?Roushrsh
1st off pc been had 3D,2nd the virtual boy and something from the 80's did 3D(even if virtual boy wasnt successful it still counts) and 3rd the 3DS DOES NOT need GLASSES...

It's strange that Sony was pushing 3D at all those trade shows for the last few years, trying to lead gaming in that direction, and then the 3DS is mentioned...and now automatically Sony is going to copy Nintendo?
Why isn't Nintendo copying Sony, because the have their own spin on technology, they get a free pass? I still love my Sly Cooper on PS2 in 3D.
I wouldn't worry about who is copying who, as the more developers push 3D. the better the technology will improve.
you need to go a little farther back because the virtual boy and some thing from the 80's, and pc did 3D so if anything they are copying nintendo or one of the other 2 inventions i mentioned...and besides 3DS needs no glasses while the ps3 does

Yes but the DS has had two in the past year, and then it's successor is on the way next year. :Ponce again that is happening to PSP too (PSP phone is rumored with PSP2 not far behind)
So Nintendo waited between 2006-2009 to put out another model after DS Lite, and just coz they waited til 2009,2010 to put out 3 models thats bad but sony isn't as bad coz they put out 1 every year at the same time? Sony put out new PSPs in 2007, 2008, 2009, and will probably in 2010
Infact yes PSP 2000 came out in 2008 and one year later, two more PSP models were out, the 3000 and the Go

And didn't Sega have 3d glasses before Nintendo? Some of these Nintendo fans are really out of control. Everything Nintendo does it does it first right? lol Well Sony was the only one in immediate history who was taking the 3D root, then bam, Nintendo 3DS LMAO Of course if you want to play that game then go watch this tech demo that was made back around the time when the eye toy came out in 2002/2003 and then come back and tell me that Sony wasn't copying Nintendo with the Wii mote. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpNdkm9s8AY If you chose to say "yes" Sony did copy the Wii mote then you will also have to say that Nintendo copied Sonys direction with 3D.Please Log In to post.
