Irrelevant is a tricky word, but I agree with your points. They're irrelevant in that they are no longer leaders. Arguably they still have a creative drive with the 360, but I'd argue that Nintendo is doing vastly more to change the world of video games than Microsoft is.
- axod 18y agoSlightly off topic, but what the hell is the point in me buying an xBox360, with a large HDD, so I can store the games on it, if I still have to put each disc in when I want to play them? The next games console that actually solves that issue will do brilliantly. An improvement would be to just distribute the games on memory cards, and make the console have say 64 card slots. Then you can just load in all your fave game cartridges and play them, and the piracy issue is addressed. I agree, Nintendo is really pushing innovation which has paid off for them in terms of profit. My main point @ irrelevant was that most people these days wouldn't really care if their computer came with Windows, Ubuntu, OS X. As long as it has a browser.
- unalone 18y agoI agree with that. I don't think most Windows users care what OS they're using, whereas a larger proportion of Mac/Linux users have made a firm commitment by picking their OS. I don't know much about the 360: I'm a Wii/PC gamer myself. The only really cool thing about the 360 is XBox Live, and I'll take online PC play over that any day. PC gamers are much classier, from my experience: the TF2 players are all pretty awesome.
