my 64 has some trouble with cartridges starting properly but they all work after a minute or two...

i blame this on the fact that its bean down more than one flight of stairs... on a solo mission. im just happy it still works

my ps2 has been dropped off the shelf at least 10 times and up untill summer of this year it still half worked...then my dog saw it as a good place to relieve himself

lmfao even dogs hate sony.

Bump with a side-by-side comparison of PS2 graphics and the emulation of PS2 on the PS3.

All three systems cost way too much for my blood.
If the actual system costs over $100 then there's no way I'll buy it. Then on top of that, I refuse to pay more than $30 for a game, and most games nowadays cost around $50. Hell, I'm too much of a tightwad that I won't buy premium on CC! But Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo are ripping off American video-gamers, making amazing profits. And the games that are coming out are not as good as everybody says, they are all the same thing! We don't need 20 different fighting games, we don't need 20 different football games, because they are all the same!!!

there's one football game a year. they make new ones with different features and players. i have a question for European gamers.....do u guys get futbol games, like Americans have football games?

Aside from Mario party Nintendo are not known for making games that are all the same.

And most consoles are sold at a loss, with profits made on games, at least from what I remember when the last generation of consoles were being released.

You do understand that the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, and N64 cost more than that at launch right?

As regards Nintendo, Shigeru Miyamoto (famous creator of Mario) is quoted as saying something along the lines of 'I wish we could've sold [the Wii] for $100'

It's a business. A business's job is to make a profit. Get over it.

Gooo Wii.

Seriously it looks so kickass, I want one so bad... but they're all sold out. DS lites are nearly all sold out everywhere too.

Nintendo are wrapping up this christmas, in Ireland anyway.

EDIT: And everyone knows Ireland is the key market for all companies.

Wii is grand

question for Europeans: do they have futbol games like Americans have football games?

European soccer fans are crazy, didnt' a group of English fans collapse an entire set of bleachers during game when they got into a brawl with the opposing country?

yeah, i remember seeing that clip.....but any Europeans, please answer the question.

Comes straight from one of the greats in the videogame industry. I glad I'm not the only one here that apreciates Mario RPG

Doesnt that happen at just about every game?

no, I'm gonna have to say soccer fans are the craziest in the world hands dow, why the barbed wire fences at stadiums?

and massive fights don't usually break out betwwen fans over any sport except soccer

And little league baseball, and Hockey, and Pop Warner football, and major league baseball, and college football...

since when have referees or ever needed serious medical attention after a game at any of those, when the injury was a direct assault and not incidental? and when has a crowd torndown a fence to get at the field?

Oh, you meant fans charging the players, not the other way around or umpires getting jumped by drunk fathers at little league games.

no, seriously, do u have European futbol games across the pond?
