Catching up on Zero Punctuation again

Okay.
I get it.
It's a caricature of your cynicism towards your personal experiences towards games.

But would it kill you to stop pretending Nintendo is the one on the fail train when obviously Sony is going to leave the video game industry first?

nintendo and sony will never run out of money

the ps2 alone made sony billions, and it still sells

nintendo will never die because they have consistently ruled the casual gaming market. people can complain that they rely on four or five solid franchises, but the thing is that's what sells so they're never going to stop making MORE MARIO and MORE ZELDA (i think he might eventually retire zelda, but Mario will go on forever)

tbh xbox will probably die out long before sony or nintendo. microsoft's been steadily losing support over the last couple of years because of shoddy products and bad marketing, so.

there was a kinect STORE fucking UP THE STREET from me, and it closed almost immediately

Well that whole PSN crash, I think that lost them a lot of faith and a lot of money because herp derp CREDIT CARD INFORMATION EVERYWHERE

the kinect is an impressive piece of equipment i can't deny that, it's even being applied for practical uses like hospital tests and other stuff. but it's really a big "Your Mileage May Vary" thing. cuz a lot of people fucking love it.

>hospital tests

HI THINGS YOU SHOULD NOT USE GAME TECHNOLOGY FOR.
Seriously you say that and all I can remember is that cliche IN THE FUTURE thing with doctors killing people while they play golf miles away that every sketch comedy thing does (and I think Robot Chicken did it TWICE even)
