Sony by a country mile.

the loss of Nintendo would signal the lost of the greatest imagination-center in gaming history. gaming would change considerably.

If Microsoft goes, that means the Xbox franchise goes as well as PC gaming. Nuff said.

Kook18

i'd imagine sony or ms would be clawing to get nintendo's talent if they disbanded.

true.  but it wouldn't be the same.

Sony since they seem more intested in making games for hardcore gamers with HDTVs and money laying around soley to spend on games. Pshh. FlashMan2006

I disagree, I say Nintendo because they mostly make games for non-gamers.  But what if you arent a non-gamer?

None of them, but if I had to choose, anything but Nintendo for me. Gaming would be able to keep going without Nintendo. I guess it would have to be Sony then. I wouldn't miss any of their 1st party titles and hopefully all their exclusive 3rd party titles would go to Nintendo or MS.

If you had to choose, which one you'd vote out of the gaming industry? Microsoft, Sony, or Nintendo?

Edit: guys, here is the imaginary scanario; a gun on your head, and the person holding the gun is asking you to choose which company will have the least impact if it goes out of the gaming industry. So make a wise decision. Go!..

Mystery_Writer

 

haha the last option made me laugh.

 

But I dont care for the PS3.

 

I just don't think it is really contributing much to the industry.

 

MS is making amazing online services, IPTV, DLC, etc.

 

And Nintendo brings a lot to the table as well for obvious reasons

If Sony dissappeared, I doubt the industry would so much as stagger.

Microsoft showcases amazing online gameplay, and Nintendo showcases innovative and fresh gameplay. Sony tries to showcase what the other two have been doing 6 months after they did it.

Michael85

 

Nice response, FANBOY. MS does nothing to showcase amazing online gameplay. I'll admit for the whole package, they do have a good online system for the CONSOLES, but LOL you're paying $6 a month for this. The fact of the matter is there is a much MUCH higher percentage of dedicated servers for PS3 online games than there are for 360 Live games, which most are being hosted P2P, gg lag. Nevermind the fact that games were going online with the same features the Live has before Live on the PC.

Get rid of Sony and you're getting rid of countless great first party games. And you can't deny that the PS3 is innovative on the hardware front. If it wasn't, you wouldn't see MS trying to play catch up over and over with the HD-DVD drive and this new "Elite" SKU.

TBH I think that all of u who chose Nintendo & Sony are full of it. They contributed greatly these past years and just cuz the PS3 is expensive atm and lacks some rlly good games (which iz ok cuz it just came out) u chose PS3 but I know down the line u'll get a PS3 wen it drops in price and gets more games 4 these reasons I chose Microsoft

Microsoft-Sony gave me some of my finest gaming years and Nintendo due to their franchises ive grown with, and the SNES (still my fave system ever), and what they are doing with Wii would be a BIG loss to me. I just never liked Microsoft much, I will respect the fact Xbox 360 has a good gaming library but if Microsoft were to be gone? I wouldnt care-those games would go elsewhere then anyways.

even with my unexplainable grudge against sony... i have to say nintendo, because unlike sony and M$, nintendo just doesn't help push the bar.

their whole innovation thing with the wiimote has to be the biggest gimmick ever, and ive played the wii with my cousins and i just dont see how that thing is fun, i much rather play LoZ with a N64 controller than that wiimote.

and for Nintendo to use that thing to give you basically a souped up GC with internet and a wiimote attached to it just makes me look down towards them... sorry if i offended the sheep, just remeber this is just my opinion.

halo is better on the xbox, it was made for a controller and feels better with one, thats probably why alot of PC ports feel wierd to PC gamers on an xbox their use to playing it with KB/M and right now i dont want to argue about that... or do i... aaaah to heck with it

Microsoft them selves have the least number of games that I care about... actually they don't have any.... So i could care less if they go away.

 

Actually... nevermind... BK3 might be worth while.

sony = alot of what xbox 1 had and ps2 didnt have (better graphics in ps3, online is better for the ps3.)

 microsoft=improved on what they had with the xbox

nintendo= they have been in left field since the ds and wii came out. they go a different way.

 

if sony was gone i wouldnt miss them as much as i would miss ms or nintendo.

I don't know why people voted for Sony. PS1 and PS2 were two of the best consoles created, the PS3 was their first console mistake. You guys gave Nintendo a second chance why not Sony? I think all three contribute, I hope none of them drop out.Jin_the_samurai

Because Nintendo revived a dead gaming industry. NES is what most of us played when we were young.  I dont feel as though Sony has changed the way we game whatsoever!  Nintendo has had many many successes despite some of their shortcomings! But Nintendo takes chances in order to push the industry ahead.  SONY DOESNT!  Well unless you count Blu-Ray, but that wasnt a choice to help out gaming as much as it was to force feed people Blu-Ray (which sony is invested heavily in)

Nintendo brings ingenuity! MS brings amazing online functionality!  Sony just brings more of the same or whatever ideas they can copy/steal from the other two!

What a hard question wow.

But man if I HAD to......I would pick Nintendo cause I never owned one single Nintendo console in my life. I have played the games through emulation and bought my ex one which I played for a while but never owned one.

And I do prefer the PS and Xbox over Nintendo if I HAD to pick but I would never want anyone to leave cause the more the better really. Competition is great for the consumers

Dude why even post here? We know you hate MS you're pratically ANTI MS and you make up lies about the 360 and then run when people call you on it. I mean you should start an "end micrsoft" campaign and take it to the media and tell everyone the truth about the 360 and how it can only have 2 downloads qued at once unlike the PS3 LOL

I thnk pretty everyone knows your opinion on this.

Its funny that Sony is the one doing all this COPYING when for 2 generations they have been leading :roll:

I guess Microdoft is copying Apple, which explains why Microsoft is leading

I'd say Nintendo. The Wii may be selling a lot but mine is really collecting dust now as I wait for Brawl and the new Godzilla game. It's not a good idea when your console's AAA consists of assorted mini-games. I dont want Sony and Microsoft to sway toward the "mini-game" gimmick craze. They should stick to making games with actual stories and everything instead of gimmicks. Bye Nintendo for me.

Microsoft, they are on the verge of killing console gaming just as much as they are doing to PC gaming and thats milking consumers for all their money and basically trying to merge consoles with PC's, movies and television into one craptastic unit. While one can argue that the PS3 is doing similar things by pushing Blu Ray, however that isnt a milkfest for your money, its just an added bonus and a feature that will soon become standard, plus online gaming is free on the PS3 and we dont have to pay for maps and stuff, plus all that extra garbage that Microsoft provides is a waste of money. I have a TV for watching shows and can record them right onto my Windows Media Center based PC to watch at high resolutions for free.

Microsoft, cause all 360 games would just be on PS3 or PC anyways.

PS3 is too advanced and has too much potential to see it go.

I don't like the Wii, but Nintendo is too cool to die thanks to nostalgia.

I'd say Nintendo at least for the consoles. They should just stick with their portable systems. Although I own a Wii and see great potential for it in the short term, the gimmick will wear off come next generation. And then what? A new gimmick while being two generations behind in technology? Nintendo was even reluctant themselves to have another console for the living room. Microsoft, whether you like it or not, incorporates too much software and technology with their Windows background. We need them for innovation and evolution in their online space. Also, it'd be unwise to forget to mention any future OS's for PC's. We need Sony as well, for their competitive nature and back franchises. Tough call for the poll, but I'll have to go with "undecided."

If Sony have few exclusives, what's to say about the of exclusive Microsoft has?  I like how Sony actually DESIGN a new format and challenge Toshiba, whereas Microsoft supports Toshiba like the cheerleaders they are. Also name one thing that that PS3 copied of the 360?

If there were a gun to my head, I wouldn't choose.  Each company employees thousands of people.  It would be wrong for me to avoid being shot by ruining thousands of lives.
