Dancing Dude If Sony and Nintendo joined forces, XBOX = history

It is quite evident Nintendo may lose out soon..however the revolution may surprise people.

But if they were ever to go bankrupt, i think they'd fit best with Sony, i mean The Chocobo/Moogle would look best with the Yoshi/Kirby

have a read of my reply in "Poll: If Nintendo had to go bankrupt, Should it go to SONY or MICROSOFT?". I was basically going to say the same thing in here.

And if the Human Torch and Iceman teamed up they'd be able to regulate the temperature in your house precisely and immediately.

I don't know, As much as I loved Nintendo, Things haven't been the same since Rare was bought by Microsoft, I think that was Nintendo's biggest mistake financially. Rare made some kick ass NES games in the past and right now, Nintendo can only rely on there popular nintendo franchise of games to survive, The new Zelda is coming out and people are anticipating that one, Though not me since I gave up on RPG games a long time ago.

Yeah, letting go of Rare was a bad decision IMO.
Still if Nintendo and Sony joined is like saying if it rained frogs. Nintendo and Sony split up from the system development. I find it hard to believe that they'd ever join forces.

Honestly now, Rare definitely is named that way for a reason. The titles released by the company come in long intervals. Personally, I don't think they helped Nintendo past the SNES/Super Famicom.

They were very close to a merger, way back when. Sony was working for a CD add-on for the SNES. Talks promptly concluded and Sony went its own way. I'm still not sure on the precise reason why they didn't work it out.

You know, What also really pains me, Is that LucasArts ended there suport for the Gamecube after Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike came out, Though I only own the second one, It just sucks that they no longer make games for it, I was such a fan of the Rogue Squadron games.

No worries there. It seems like LucasArts has taken an interest in the Revolution.

No man your all wrong on this one.

Sony was in the background doing all the work, actully Sony made the Super Nintendo and then later on in 1993/94 both Sony and Nintendo were working together on the Playstation.I am not excatly sure what is would have been called. So Nintendo decide to split off the project because they weren't too ipressed.

You can see why Nintedno went with those stupid cartiadges on the Nintendo 64. Nintendo hasn't been the same since the Super Nintendo era.

As for the Nintendo Revolution its still a question

I like how its finally online thorught Wifi

Also I can't wait to play with games from the NES/SNES online

Only con they care more originality they don't care about graphics which is either a bad thing or a good thing.
