I dont get it. Are there suppose to be some Nintendo fanboys doing out of control crazy wild stuff at that link. If not it doesnt seem related. Its just some pictures of controllers. I dont understand. WHAT DOES IT MEAN!!!! WHAT DOES IT MEAN!!! Is it secret code for Nintendo fanboy? If I stare at pictures of concept controllers all day will they turn into Nintendo fanboys? The LSD levels in California water are pretty low and I dont know if I can replicate your experience.

I did some digging around this and I can 100% say that this is clearly INACCURATE so please be free to report this as what it's really is. First of all, Yahoo US does NOT support Japanese stocks ( http://finance.yahoo.com/exchanges ) Second, ntdoy.pk is really pink sheets and not Nintendo stocks ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_sheets ) Third, I went to the Yahoo Japan website and found the real stock for Nintendo which is 7974.T ( http://quote.yahoo.co.jp/q?s=7974.t&d=c&k=c3&h=on&z=m and http://finance.google.com/finance?cid=672774 )
Here is the SNE stock compare to the real stock Nintendo stock: http://quote.yahoo.co.jp/q?d=c&c=sne...mp;q=l&v=on
You can clearly see that compared to Yen ( This is very important due to money conversions since Dollars cost more than Yen. This means since it lost more dollars in the US for a Japanese broker the decrease will be higher ) the stock has only drop 7% compare to the big jump of 16% for

Nintendo. This is because of market conditions with a small boost thanks to the Wii. Japan has exceedingly seen a rise in their stocks compare to the US counterpart which has been decreasing for a while.

must of not gotten there info from digg.com the leader in REAL stock names!!!!!
I think whoever you quoted likes to invent parallel universes in his head where nothing in them actually exists in the real world.
And its humorous you combat internet hearsay with even more internet hearsay. thats a cornucopia of noobness.
hey look japanese dancehall reggae dancers!!!! holy crap that has so much to do with this topic i think i will post a link to it!!!

you have to wait till they start dancing!!!
These girls are way more gangsta'.
Also polycount really needs an open YTMND thread.
Nothing i have posted in this thread resembles a serious comment, if you're honestly looking for some sort of relevant insight from someone like me of all people i sincerly feel sorry for you.
HOW IRONIC (yes, I know it's not ironic at all, but we may get to see a nice Sony-shaped splatter on the proverbial gaming sidewalk)
Oh no...Nintendo copied one of Sega's dozen controller prototypes. Dude...it's a remote.

Exactly. And motion sensing tech is just motion sensing tech. But surprise surprise, Sony was "copying" Nintendo with their PS3 controller, right? At least, according to you Nintendo fanboys.
That was my point. Don't diss on Sony for "copying" someone else's ideas, when Nintendo does it just the same.

Well, that's assuming that Nintendo had prior knowledge of that control. That's also assuming the DC control was built around motion sensor tech. For all we know, it could have had a cord.
Note that none of the prototypes have a cord.
Good, but not great.

Actually Sony copied MS in that regard. What people ARE complaining about is that Sony thought it was a bad idea until they saw Nintendo use it at which point they've picked a solution that has been proven to be stupid many times. Sony said things like "We aren't going to offer a centralized online service, we let the developers sort that out", "There's no way we'll offer two SKUs of the PS3" and "We are Sony, we don't do gimmicks". Look what they chose to do now.
Also the Power Glove had positional sensors a loooooong time ago. Nintendo isn't really innovative in that regards, they are merely thefirst to apply that to gaming (in a way that doesn't suck).
I think it servers Sony right. I'd like to see an itemized list explaining every cost that brings a console's price to $600. I might as well buy a new computer and play Half-Life 2 on my own machine instead of kicking my fiancee off his.

No need for an itemized list. Hardware is expensive. Even at $600, they're selling it at a huge loss per unit. I'm not saying it's a smart move (there's no way I'm going to buy one... hell, I doubt I'd buy one even if it were half that), but it's not like they're trying to rip people off, it's just all the crap they put in it and the hardware architecture they decided to go with is exorbitantly expensive.
