Original Nintendo/Sony PlayStation prototype found

The Sony PlayStation was, in the distant past, devised as a collaboration with Nintendo: a CD system that also played Super Famicom cartridges. The two parted ways in a less than amicable fashion before the system was produced, and then the PlayStation went on to become the system that Nintendo fanboys would simultaneously hate and own.

The breakup caused the Sony Playstation and the Philips CDi.

That thing must be worth a fortune because there were probably only a handful ever made.

[DrPirate]

A relic of Nintendo betraying Sony and making them start the Playstation brand name.

Must be worth a fortune indeed.

Change in what platforms made it what platforms Didnt would have DRAMATIC on what games we are playing today...also what we might be playing them on!

One stupid decision (Nintendo dissing Sony) led to the creation of the PS brand and the beginning of the end of Nintendo's dominance. Years later, lame decisions from the Sony higher-ups would cause headaches for the PS brand, with Nintendo once again gaining dominance through sales. Oh, how ironic!!

Where 2 dogs are fighting for one bone, the third one will take it.

Wii may sell many, PS3 may sell to few, but the 360 gets the best games!

Wii may sell many units now, but having no games suck. The wearout effect will be there soon. I expect it after summer/in fall. People will start to see that it's really nothing but a funny way of controlling a game, with a supercharged Gamecube.

Not something to stay on top this lifecycle of 5 to 6 years!

So I assume that Smash bros, Mario Galaxy and Metroid corruption won't have any effect then?

Get real. While I can quite easily admit the 360 has the sales lead, it means squat.

We cannot see into the future, and if we did , I would love to see what comes of the 360 reliability issues rather than if the Wii still sells.

Lets be fair, the Wii was profitable out of the box, no other console in thie generation is. Hell, the 360, as far as I am aware is still LOSING money per unit at the moment. So even if Ninty's console life span is only 3 year or so, if people have had a good experience with it, they will line up to Wii 2 - how long has apple spun out slightly revised hardware for thier ipods? Every year - are they still selling loads? Hell yes.

Just because you are a blatant 360 fanboy does not meant that the 360 will pwn all.

I think the same thing might have happened between Xbox and Dreamcast. I do notice the Dreamcast has windows CE. Maybe I'm wrong...goes back to eating cereal.
