[QUOTE="bbkkristian"]I'm not mad Sony copied Nintendo, it just proves that they don't have their own ideas and that Nintendo is leading the innovation in the industry.meetroid8
So Sony has never had an original idea?

Yeah they have [their own idea]; I'd be willing to admit that. :P

EDIT: I almost fell into your trap :x lol trick question

Sheep want to whine about Sony Allstars when MS just stole Nintendo's casual market without warning ?

there are bigger fish to fry, this game Sony is copying is just fan service for Playstation fans, at least they're not stealing Nintendo's consumers.

Nintendo comes up with the SNES controller -> Sony copies it with the PS1

Nintendo comes up with a joystick -> Sony copies the joystick

Nintendo comes up with rumble -> Sony copies rumble

Nintendo comes up with a wireless controller -> Sony copies wireless controllers

Nintendo comes up with motion controls -> Sony copies motion controlls

Nintendo comes up with a fighting game featuring it's most popular characters -> .....

Let's be fair though, they didn't steal the triggers from nintendo. They just didn't pick them up till another company did.....Now the wiiU, love it or hate it, is sure to be extremely innovative. Let's see what they steal there.

in before sony "mario" party

1 complete different controls the Snes was a flat pad. 2)Joystick see Atari for that. 3)Rumble wasn't even a patent by Nintendo it was owned by another company who sue sony,nintendo and MS. 4)There were wireless controllers on PS1 from 3rd parties. 5)MS did motion controls before Nintendo even release the gamecube,it was call free style pro. 6)SNK did it before Nintendo so did Capcom as well,SSM did not invent mixing characters from different games,King of Fighters say hi..

2)Joystick see Atari for that.

That is correct. I remembered joystick controllers from the Atari 2600 (which used to be called the Atari VCS) years before I heard of the NES. I think that gamers need to be more educated on the history of video games instead of focusing on the last few generations. The history is quite rich and interesting and I am fortunate to see most of the early history first hand (experienced the fall of Atari, the video game crash, and the rise of the NES and modern gaming).

It's called a standard. The guide button also didn't come from the 360 because the PSP has a guide button and pre-dates the 360 by a year.

This whole "copying" argument has been smashed here time, and time again. No one cares if you can come up with some half baked idea, the person who actually makes your idea useful will be considered the innovator. Look at Gears of War, it didn't create cover based shooting, but it certainly gets credit for popularizing it. Therefore I couldn't care less if Nintendo came up with an idea that Sony improved because that is just how things work.

Everyday my Wii is like "emorainbo, please look at me! Touch me! Play me! Acknowledge my existence!"

And I'm like" **** cant you see PS3 and I are having a moment?!"

I still remember when cows accused MS of stealing the little big planet theme song and cows went batsh*t insane over it. It was funny but truly terrifying to watch especially since Sony doesn't even own the song. Now they seem find with copying. Times. they are a changin'

[QUOTE="Chemical_Viking"]To think sheep play the victim card on here so often.StrongDeadlift

Actually, cows play the victim card the most on here. Cows are also the most rabbid/aggressive on here (along with every gaming community on the internet).

Coincidentally, Sony has had the MOST negative press/negative ammo against them out of all 3 companies this gen.

and lems are the most hypocritical on SW.

Nintendo didn't "come up" with the joystick, motion controls, or wireless controllers. Sony had a motion controller last gen.

I have a feeling they'll come up with a game involving plumbers and stereotypical Italians.

Someone needs a quick lesson on Vocabulary words

Copy:

  1. A reproduction of an original; a duplicate

Emulate:

  1. to attempt to equal or surpass, especially by imitation
  2. to rival or compete with

Sony doesn't copy, they emulate. No different than any business that hopes to be successful (competitive) in their respected field.

actually the first motion control was done by nintendo with the original wii zapper on the nintendo entertainment system as well with the power glove, also nintendo had conceived the idea for the wii and started development, before the eye toy, and before the development of move, I will agree move is more accurate but all the games for it suck, you gotta have a good game to go with what you got and sony is just **** at making motion games, as for playstation all-stars battle royal, people claiming it is gonna be better have never played super smash bros, I will buy playstion all stars, but I'm pretty sure gamestop will be getting a used copy early, what makes smash bros so good is that all the characters go well together, sony has good games great characters, ratchet and clank, jak and daxter, sly cooper, go good together but really any other sony characters mixed with them dont go good together, ratchet and clank mixed with uncharted don't go good, when making a game you have to have a formula that go good, this game has a formula that 1st of all has been done already by nintendo, and when nintendo does it it mixes so well that anything else feels like a clone, I have to admit I am a nintendo fan boy but I do appreciate other game companys and there consoles formulas and anything they have I own a wii, ps3 and xbox 360 and I play them all, but sony does copy, I know that what happens in the business world, but sony does it to a huge extent, I don't really want to start an argument with anyone, but thats the way sony is they are douche bag trolls, they copy nintendo and release they products way to high, but I'm okay with that because it gives me something to discuss with people, I do agree that nintendo did not have the joystick 1st, but nintendo did have motion gaming 1st, plus you people have to realize that sony is copying with playstation all stars, there really is no other fighting game like smash bros and sony has tried to take it, but sony has also copied mario kart, and some people claim but I think not, that little big copied mario bros, so basically all I'm saying from this comment is, move was a waste of time because it was already done, and playstation all stars is a waste of time because it also has been done, and no fighting game can beat smash bros.

They also stole trophies, triggers and the home button from M$....

What have they come up with by themselves?

PolygonBust

The PS1 had triggers....

Trophies are different from achievements...

The PSP that was released in 2004 had a home button...

No they aren't. Who are you trying to fool? :lol:

Nintendo makes an analog stick controller, Sony makes a better dual analog stick controller

Nintendo makes a rumble pack attachment, Sony makes a better built in rumble pack

Nintendo makes a wireless controller, Sony makes a better wireless controller

Nintendo makes a motion controller, Sony makes a better more accurate motion controller

Nintendo makes a all star game, Sony makes a better all star game.

They arent copying, they are improving.

There's no such thing of "copying", it's competition.

Why is it that whenever someone says the slightest thing negatively against sony, all of the sony fanboys go in defense mode. Do you fanboys really disagree with the topic creator???? Its true that sony is always copying nintendo. Lbp karting = mario kart Move = wiimote Playstation allstars = SSB The list goes on and on. You sony fanyboys are always defending sony no matter what they do. That makes you all blind followers. It just doesn't make since to me.

It happens, companies copy ideas from eachother specially if its something that will generate profits :)

However i'm glad Sony did it and got into the Gaming Business, cause we got the PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP & PSV... some of these systems may have sold less than what Nintendo offered but all Sony's sytems had great gaming libraries which millions of gamers enjoyed...
