"The History of Sony"-A story of Betrayal

[skapunk4ever]

Umm ok. It was a partnership. Ofcourse sony wanted some of the profit.

[Cakelover]

Well people need to get this straight.

Nintendo had HUGE experience in the gaming market. Sony had nothing.

All Sony added to the console was CD capability which was already available from Phillips.

Sony wanted massive profits from every game sold and decided to leave Nintendo and "steal" the "playstation" name which they recently lost the right to use the word playstation for the PSOne.

[Someone Secretly Hidden]

Yes, But they already had an agreement.

[Dauer99]

Yes, an agreement to make a CD console, thats it. Sony then proposed that they wanted a profit margin on every game sold which was fucking ridiculous. Its like Nvidia demanding Sony they want 10% of profit of every PS3 game sold.

Even though the console was a failiure because of the ridiculously high price of the Sony technology ($1000)...sound familiar?

[Alice B-Rabbit]

Neo Geo, and uh maybe the PS3, not sure though.
