Memory sticks for the PSP are expensive. $160 at Best Buy for a 1 gig stick. compare that to $180 for a 4 gig mini-ipod at amazon.com.

Nintendo Gaming / RE: Where did all the Gamers Go?
« on: March 12, 2005, 06:03:45 PM »
I think the Cube has a bad image as others have said. And that's what has hurt it.
The Cube is the Prince of Persia:Sands of Time. The PS2 and Xbox are both the Prince of Persia: Warrior Within. That's the image difference.
Americans want GTA. Halo. Big guns. They need to be badass. They need to see lots of gore. They need realism.
I think the Cube's image is closely associated with Nintendo software and Nintendo software just isn't mainstream American gaming anymore for the highschoolers. There's no fps game. No realistic racing game. No rpg without kid characters. No military tactical game. No flight combat game.
If Nintendo spent their game development talents on making a few more WEstern titles such as above they'd do better.
I don't care if they aren't totally popular tho. But I do want them to survive as a console maker.
I would love to see some of these types of games from Nintendo tho in addition to their usual great games.
