Ab56 v2 aka Ash Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 http://www.gamespot.com/news/6163855.html?tag=latestnews;title;4 Did the entire committee never hear about Wii? I'm not trying to provide flame bait or anything, but if they're talking about controller innovation, there's a clear winner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FuriousFure Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 well, nintendo has a way of making amazing things out simple electronics. so maybe the wii isn't that impressive from just the hardware specs. sony was trying to fit in so they had to use expensive sophicated technology to replicate the actions that nintendo had way back in Gameboy Color days.

Smoke Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Nintendo hasn't made an appearance at the CES for quite some time now, so they don't win prizes there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamut Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 one word: Classy. Hey, it's an awards thing for gaming, and I don't care about those things because they do nothing to enhance my gaming experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Nintendo hasn't made an appearance at the CES for quite some time now, so they don't win prizes there. You can win awards just for showing up at CES. Payola. I can smell it all the way over here. Sony? Involved in payola? I just can't believe it. I mean, it's not like they paid all those movie critics to give good reviews for Sony films... or even just made some critics up. Or paid radio stations to play more Sony owned music on the air. Or game sites to give better reviews. I just can't believe that Sony would do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skywalker6705 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Also, this is for design, like, circut boards, etc. Not for innovation of neat-o factor. What's rather mundane to veteran gamers still is amazing on a technical level sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormguy Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 You know, I have to say that Sony's marketing department has really been on crack lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!Nekko! Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Christine Chin from NATAS confirmed that Sony's Dual Shock as well as Nintendo's D-Pad (NES pad?) Wait, so how often do they have these awards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I think this is the first time they had video game stuff involved. Why, I couldn't say. None of this has anything to do with movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyMeister Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Emmys? They still do those? And they give 'em out for new tech now? What did I miss? ... of course, I spend most of my time on the Internet listening to "Weird Al", I barely watch TV, and when that happens, it's usually Billy and Mandy, Mythbusters, or something else on the Discovery Channel. If this is payola, it just topped "All I Want For Christmas Is A PSP" in nondiscreteness and strangeness. But that fake site still maintains it's hilariously stupid obvious marketing style that just makes you wanna chuckle it's so bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murmeli Walan Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 one word: Classy. Now that UnMod's gone, classy is the name of the game around here. Just ask blad. But anyway, Sony has not been doing very good in the PR department lately. Dumb quotations, physical injuries caused by the PS3 launch, and now a mistaken Emmy celebration. If this keeps up, Sony's game department will become the laughingstock of the gaming industry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
