Why not a Nintendo console hooked up to a Sony TV? just a suggestion.

By the way, no. Microsoft is not making a Portable.

Also, Nintendo console, Microsoft operating system, and Sony Hardware?

Nintendo has been out the longest and will out last the sony and microsoft gaming consoles becayse of the diehard nintendo fans there are more of us then you and if the three tried to make one together that would suck because the other two would stuff up nintendo's brilliance and if microsoft released a handheld system they would only do it the same reason sony did to catch up on the competition Nintendo and crummy old sony in summary

Nintendo has been around the longest i mean look at the systems that tried to come after us Atari, Sega and others they all crashed and burned sony and microsoft will do the same in the gameing way Nintendo has never been defeated and never will they will always have mario, donkey kong, zelda, Banjo Kazooie and Pokemon some of there most sucsesful games to fall back on what continous games do sony and microsft have to fall back on huh

Atari was around long before Nintendo was, and they're still around now. Sega started about the same time Nintendo did, and they quit making consoles. Sony & MS came much later.

Edit: after some searching, I stand corrected. Atari and Nintendo started making game consoles about the same time, although Nintendo started in Japan and did not start US sales until long after Atari did.

I'm saying that Sega and Atari failed when there systems where inferor to nintendo so that's what will happen again and again

ok you seem to be an angry little person. yes nintendo has been around forever but many or their new games have lost the feel and the kickassness of the classical nes-snes games. i mean it nintendo hasnt had a really really kickass game since super mario rpg: legend of the seven stars. absolutly all of their new games have lost the magic that the classics have. nintendo has dropped the ball, and show no signs of picking it up in the near future. i mean it has 1/3 the library of games xbox does and and xbox has 1/4 of the games ps2 has. i would be very surprised if nintendo makes it through the next-gen console war.

last i heard from good ole Bill, M$ is concentrating on getting to the top of the market with the Xbox 360. after that, they will look into the portable gaming market. i'm sure they are stirring around ideas now, but we won't see anything for a while. rest assured, when they are ready, they would just release a juiced up PocketPC with expensive graphics.

Xbox portable.. hmm.. I'm not so sure.

The last Xbox and Xbox360 aren't exactly "compact." Although Microsoft *does* have it's PocketPC OS which would be a good base for a portable gaming device.

I think the portable market is already covered pretty much though, there isn't really very much you could expand on. There's Nintendo with it's grab-and-go portable (the DS) with good battery life, and rugged for kids. And then there's the PSP, a more stylish handheld targetted towards the older gamers. Doesn't really leave much room for anyone else.

What about the new Legend of Zelda Game there releasing in october that will be awsome and nintendo have heaps of cool games for all of there systems like Donkey Kong 64, Super Mario 64 & Ocarina of time for the nintendo 64 and Super Smash Bros 3 & Terminator 3: rise of the machies for Gamecube and plenty more nintendo systems have games that appeal to all people not just Teens or Adults or Children. Nintendo Caters for all of them and if you don't like nintendo then i don't like you

And lol i just had an idea.
We can debate about Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo.

(yes i am a hardcore nintendo gamer, ive been playing since i was 4 and all that ive found is everyone else is copying them with handhelds and systems.) Although i want Xbox360 and PSP.

what i said basicaly is not that there arent good games on nintendo its just that i havnt gotten the same feeling of enjoyment out of newer nintendo games. i mean beating smrpg was one of the greatest things i ever saw but since then "gem" games on gamecube are very hard to come by. super mario 64 was kinda boring after the first half of the game, ocarina of time was easy, smash bros 3 aint out yet but melee wasnt good unless u had 3 friends of equal talent, dk64 took buying an extra pac thing and im a cheap-ass so i never played it. nintendo brought me into the gaming world so i cant say it isnt a good thing but their games have lost the classic feel. and i forgot there was one very good game on the 64, Paper mario, only because i loved it and many many people never played it.

i wouldnt go as far as copying but i will say this nintendo is monopolizing the handheld game world. but the ds has truely dissapointed me, witht the wierd stylis and many of the games coming to nothing more then a random handfull of minigames. the handheld game market is in need of a face lift and psp is giving it one.

Nintendo PWNs all in the gaming console industry. I find it funny how PS2 fans like to claim that the PS2 has better graphics than XBox and Cube, when, in reality, the opposite is true. I acually enjoy the cube's visuals more than either of the other consoles', despite the fact that XBox technically has a better gfx card. Nintendo keeps the visuals simple, clean, and the framerate high, which produces stunning results. For those of you that have never played cube, check out F-Zero GX, or Metroid Prime: Echoes. Amazing.

Although the PC will always be the most powerful and fun gaming device. Let's face it, it has literally unlimited graphics and processing capabilities.

and can you say "Unreal Tournament 2004"? Most fun game ever created. Period.

Although Smash Bros. Melee and Starfox Assault come in for a close second...

i like microsoft's hardware the best, and of course halo :P

here's what Mr. Gates said at microsoft's involvement in portable gaming

* Any interest in handhelds?
"We are not in the handheld space. We watch the intense competition of Sony, Nintendo, Nokia--whoever comes along with interest. Our portable gaming will be focused on things like getting onto the phones, getting onto portable PCs, but our Xbox team is focused on the TV-connected console. And the fact that Sony's a little distracted with that may let us do all the better in the next generation"

^ppffft! Y'think?


And BagelHead, don't you think you are being a little shallow-minded? I mean, how can SFA be better than a game with the exact same gameplay, with WAY more weapons, vehicles, gameplay modes, ect.? Not to mention the controls in SFA are reeeally wonky, whereas UT2004 uses traditional mouse-aim (hold R to aim up WTF?)?

And not that I don't like SFA, because I do. It's actually one of my favorite all-time games. But, some PC games are just...better. There's more potential in the console, simple as that. No one can prove that otherwise.

Of course, I'll always be a hardcore Nintendo fan at heart... :happy:

As long as all three companys are competeing they willl make better and better games faster and faster. The more the competition the more advantage to us so I say let there be three. Also Xbox is the best.

Hi guys.I think that every1 has a point but micro will never lose it flame.As long as it have xbox live no1 can come close to it becuase it dominating the gaming world and alot of corps notice that and making a tranfer to micro for example ff11 for live and the for other corps like team ninja put out games like doa they wont go out.Same goes for ps2 like ff series,gta,teken,metal gear series,etc.For nentendo we got the mario series like mario party,pokemon,metriod,and the other classic games.And also nentendo & sony wont go becuase every1 in japan love that system and hate micro but here in America we love it so its a 50/50.I say the best bet to go for is mirco becuase billy bill got lots of cash to spend.loll.If u really look @ it i say they all got their only style like sony has alot of rpg then other micro has more shooten and mecha and cube has like adventure-kiddish games but also serious ones too.But ima ff & xbox fan all the way.
