Cerny is certainly on a path to be comparable to Miyamoto in significance in the industry. Hell, he's probably second to him now.

Nintendo's legacy is tarished. It seems like a lifetime again that I played Zelda for the first time, played Mario Cart with my friends, or saw Mario 64. It seems that they are moving farther and farther away from what once made them so special.

Sony on the other hand seems to be getting better and better.

Maybe I would feel different if I was a lot younger and was closer to the demographic that Nintendo is shooting for.

Sony doesn't care about gameplay so that's not happening. ShoulderOfOrion

NO

SONY will have its own unique legacy.

SONY is known for new and innovating games which break records.Kidtendo is known for pointless gimmicks and 1980s cartoon rehashes.

They cannot be compared.

Good luck Cerny. Vita is in a total disaster right now.

they have done that with the ps2 already

No. way. I like Cerny, but no. I would even put Peter Molyneux over him.

Sony has two of the best selling systems ever including the best ever. Legacy is already cemented.

After PS4 sells 100 million+ and Wii U sells 30 million it will be over. Sony will have mudstomped Nintendo in 3 out of 4 gens.

Cerny has been around in videogame history, but to say he is in the same league that Miyamoto is in is laughable to anyone but the most die-hard Sony fan. Willy105

Sony and MS are pushing the industry forward now.Nintendo used to do this 15 years ago,but not now.And with the wii,they tarnished their image.

Mark Cerny is the saving grace of Sony. I always like how chill and humble the guy seems on/off camera.You can justifiably hate on many sony employees but not him.

I know it not all about sales. Just saying Sony has been very important to gaming as well. We would still be using cartridges, sub HD and no online if Nintendo was still leading the industry. Sony didn't do all of that, but Nintendo is constantly behind.

I don't know... I haven't known Cerny to make any genre defining or defying games... Miyamoto has created several during his career.

ps1 and ps2 already cemented sony's legacy. ps3 could be a bridge or a part of ps4's success because of their first party studios that was developed this past gen

Nintendo has been around much more and surely their success cannot be questioned but at the same time Sony already has its own legacy considering all their systems sold millions and had great games libraries !!

Will Sony ever match nintendo's legacy? maybe, but it wont be easy !!

That said, I think Cerny seems to be cool people and I like him a lot. We need more like him in the industry. He's old school in the best possible way.

I am surprised by some peoples lack of knowledge of what Nintendo has done for the industry. You can argue opinions of the companies tactics, sales, games and what not. What you can not argue is the fact that they resurrected the market and that has led to what it is today. They are responsible for what the console and handheld markets have become and the competition it has brought. They have brought many new ideas, some good and some bad, to the market which has also inspired innovation and change.

You realize that Sony may have never even entered the console market if not for Nintendo.

Have you noticed that the first PS controller is basically a SNES controller rip off with added palm grips?

The PS brand came out of a failed partnership of Nintendo and Sony to create a disc based system add on for Nintendo.
