I made a post about this in another topic, but I thought I'd make a topic and get all your opinions. I believe that Sony and Nintendo are partnering up to take down Microsoft in the gaming business. You probably think I'm crazy, but think about it... Sony released the PlayStation Move, which is almost exactly the same as the Wii's motion controls both in motion and design. Did Nintendo take any legal action against Sony? No... This is definitely unlike Nintendo, as they are very fond of making new, groundbreaking technology, and I'm sure would hate people stealing there idea. I found out that that Sony and Nintendo both worked on the SNES to try and improve it dramatically, and put discs on it, but Sony decided to make the PlayStation... (thank you Sephiroth ), so it would be no surprise.Now Nintendo has said that they are going to reveal the Wii 2, which is going to be significantly more powerful than the PS3 and 360, and will be able to play games in 1080p resolution. The PS3 is the most powerful (yes 360 Fanboys, it is... it has been proven, as Sucker Punch, developers of inFamous, said that inFamous 2 cannot be done on the Xbox 360) console out, and if Nintendo want to make it more powerful, they will definitely need help from Sony, as they would need to install Blu-Ray in the Wii 2. So these are my reasons as to why I think Sony and Nintendo are partnering up, so what do you guys think after reading this? Do you think it could be true, or do you think it's just all coincidence? |

I believe Sony paid a lot of money to buy in to the motion technology from Nintendo. I was reading about that somewhere but can't remember where atm. I also know that Nintendo have been selling there touch screen technology, to some different phone companies. But in saying that there are also bound to be a certain amount of dodgy rip of versions as well out on the market. Still I like the theory you have come up with SC(+)PE. Sony + Nintendo = Sintendo.

I think the two companies have helped each other out in certain situations but i don't think they are working together to beat Microsoft. Sony and Nintendo are friends since before the first xbox they were the two companies around and Microsoft now are the young fish in the pond but at the end of the day its each company trying to earn has much money as they can by being on top. |

Is the blue ray a guranteed feature of Wii2? And where did this information about Wii2 > PS3 in hardware come from? :0 I think i read that the Wii2 would not be as powerful as the 360 or PS3 by some analyst of some sort.. He may be wrong though. |

I believe that they have some amount of co operation because of their Japanese relations, and I believe they would rather help each other than Microsoft, but not that they are fully teamed up. |

I would just like to say that motion control technology isnt exactly something you can copyright seeing as the idea started way back before the wii. Sony did try to help Nintendo with the snes but then back stabbed them and made a better console. Also it is UNCONFIRMED yet as to whether the next Nintendo console wii in fact have blu ray. |

Yes Bob it is unconfirmed about the Blu-Ray, but it would be great if it does. ![]() Besides rumours and speculation is what keeps people interested in new things. |

this would be something i would love, and if they did team up it would most likely be called a wii2 over a ps4, because nintendo is the bigger company i guess. your theory is good but i highly doubt this will happen, and im with brink, is the blu ray 100% for the wii2? also, why would they team together to beat microsoft? everyone knows they already have beaten microsoft :D:D:D |

I think we have to remember that the video games/console portion of these companies are rather small - sony had (or has) other arms as we all know - and aside from the snobs around the office who have apple, who doesnt use microsoft office? |

No idea of a release date yet, but I am sure we will find out at the upcoming E3 . When they unveil the Wii2 it should be a rather big event. |
