True, well I strongly believe that PS3 will dominate then. My reason is that each system basically have similar selection/lineup to their predecessors. PS2's lineup won, GCs didn't, xbox's didn't. Get my point.

How do you explain Snes to N64 then?

It's interesting that you brought that up, and I'm glad you did. Playstation 1 and Playstation 2made the industry grow since the days of Snes. Today, the industry is about the same size as it was in the ps2 days. Nintendo stayed the same, giving the same type of games that didn't appeal much to the older audience. Thats why N64 wasn't as successful as PS1. PS always win because they have the most variety of franchises and original games. PS3 is following the same trend.

You don't think the Wii is expanding the industry?

Content-wise? No. Before Playstation, gaming wasn't 1/3 as big. What other console sold over 100 million systems. Only PS consoles have sold this many, thus expanding the industry. We'll see if Wii ever reaches these numbers, I doubt it since they're still making mini-games and mario rehashes. I love nintendo, back in the day, you couldn't tell me anything bad about nintendo. But look at what they do, they make 1 mario game per generation, then give you mario spin-offs for the rest of the generation. Also I want Donkey Kong Country back.

[QUOTE="zombiepigeon"]Why do all cows say "Just wait"?TheDarkDisciple

I love this argument:lol: Lemmings pass this argument as if PS3 and 360 came out at the same time. 360 had a headstart and has a good number of its major games released. For PS3 its a different story. So mock the "just wait" thing all you want buts its true, love it or hate it, its true when it comes to the PS3.

the 360 will always have the one year headstart. So when will cows stop using this excuse? So far we've been comparing the 360 and ps3 stats over the same period of time and the 360 always ends up looking better. And the 360 didn't even have the same number of multiplats that were being released on both systems.

Headstarts never helped a console, except for getting devs more used to their platform, other than that, theirs no real advantage to a headstart because people will go to the system that has the games they want. , your point.
