Posted March 14, 2006 wow im almost embarrased for them. but they always have their PS2 wand controller for back up right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 Sony's fault. Big stupid mistake, no wonder they are firing about 1/4 of their UK staff.But the end of the article is stupid. The reason Sony are getting taken to the cleaners is because they didn't settle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 i think this is inspired. get on nintendo. stupid sony. i would love to see game now with half its store empty. hahahahahahahaha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 This means that Sony not only has to pony up and awful lot of cash to Immersion Technologies, but it has to stop infringing on the patent - that means stop selling kit which includes Dual Shock technology, and that means pulling the PS2 off the shelf. Interestingly, Immersion is owned in part by Nintendo. The next-generation battle just took another twist... I just had to post that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 i think this is inspired. get on nintendo. stupid sony. i would love to see game now with half its store empty. hahahahahahahaha It would be like a dream walking into Game and not seeing PS2's for sale.. just Nintendo and Xbox stuff ... but i suppose there would still be millions of crap PS2 games (with a few gems like Resi 4) all over the walls Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 IMO, this the best part "What exactly is Nintendo's game here, letting Microsoft settle and taking Sony to the cleaners?" nintendo must really hate sony Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 As it says, Sony just didnt settle, it has nothing to do with Nintendo hating Sony more than Microsoft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 *walks into GAME tumble weeds roll on by, a lowly assistant looks up "could this be the first sale in a week? maybe we shouldn't have fazzed out gamecube!" damn right i laugh in your face. back to reallity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 Sony has just been Nintendowned! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 I tthink the DualShock was ugly anyway but this bit made me laugh and cheer: Interestingly, Immersion is owned in part by Nintendo. The next-generation battle just took another twist... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 I had to read it, and dont we all just love it. I sure hope though that Nintendo take the appropriate measures that this never happens to them... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 14, 2006 Sony am cry. Seriously, I even feel sorry for them. Well.. kind of. Or maybe not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 How much money do they owe Immersion? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 14, 2006 As it says, Sony just didnt settle, it has nothing to do with Nintendo hating Sony more than Microsoft. Yeah I can't see how nobody can make that logical conclusion. Microsoft said "Sorry, heres lots of money, that okay?" and Sony said "No, we'll fight this" and also spent loads of money. Wonder who ended up paying more, Microsoft or Sony.

Posted March 15, 2006 This is quite hilarious...It's ashame this didn't happen earlier than it did. Does this mean that Nintendo are getting money off of Sony?!?! HAHAHA Surely it's quite a lot!? And does it mean they have to recall the rest of the PS2 packages & DuelShocks or just not sell anymore?!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
