Bitchy comments
“Nintendo knows its target audience, because it has really narrowed that down; and it’s pretty much defined by a boy or girl’s ability to admire Pokemon.”

“The idea of a handheld rivalry with Nintendo is an irrelevance, those formats don’t appear in our planning. It’s not a fair comparison; not fair on them, I should stress. That sounds arrogant, maybe, but it’s the truth.”

Something the PS2 was widely criticized for – and which Microsoft in particular has played up very much – is being extremely hard to develop for. How does PS3 compare in that respect?
It always made me chuckle, that comment from Microsoft, because yeah, it’s true, but it didn’t stop us having thousands of games and 80 per cent market share. → When one person suffers from a delusion, it is called insanity. When many people suffer from a delusion it is called a game.
