the reason has just sprung into my head why the n64 did so rubbish and playstation did so well. The power. just think the n64 was the most powerful out of the two consoles with better specs. the downfall came to the specs because playstation was released first and games companys were of course going to release their games on it to the public first. so a game came out and ps1 owners were amazed by the skill of the game, beause it was the best a playstation could do, so of course the game sold well and the company made a packet. then n64 is released and they think "lets develop for them" so they do and they do a port of the game not using the 64`s specs as well as they could and the game was released on the 64 people bought it got it home and it was rubbish because they had been playing mario 64 the other day and it used all the specs as well as they could at the time (back then it was the best game on the format and in my opinon is still up there with the perfect darks and zeldas) so people didn`t like the game and instead decided to spend there money on that new craze called tamomgotic (or what ever it is spelt like) so the company lost money and after that happening a few time gave up and just developed for playstation. so people saw the ps1 better and bought that. by the time good games were coming out for the 64 it was to late and the ps1 craze was at an all time high.

so how could this not of happened:

1. nintendo release a nintendo 32 so companys were useing all the specs.

2. nintendo also released rubbish games at the begining so the games other developers made looked good sold well made packet and then gradually the games got better by all the companys and they would all be working for it because no real change was noticed

3. developers used the specs.

4. nintendo helped them more to produce good games

5.we all went around to sony HQ and started throwing petrol bombs (not advised said tony blair)


so now the specs are all close together in all the consoles ports will be as good as posible with nearly all the specs being used and people will by them and the company will make a packet and the heavens will open champane will fall and nintendo will be top again.

note: yes of course there is other reason but this i feel is one of the biggest reaosn if you diagreeand feel somin else was the reason go ahead and say so.

Nintendo only released their games at launch. They needed more third party developers. They won't be making the same mistake with the GC, as there are plenty of third party developers to suit everyones need.

Boz, can you read my topic? thanks.
