Comments on: Reisinger: Why Nintendo can do no wrong with the DS http://fantasyh.wordpress.com/2008/01/05/reisinger-why-nintendo-can-do-no-wrong-with-the-ds/ Ramblings coming out of the head and keyboard of fantasyh Thu, 17 Sep 2009 19:33:52 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: James http://fantasyh.wordpress.com/2008/01/05/reisinger-why-nintendo-can-do-no-wrong-with-the-ds/#comment-25 James Sun, 01 Jun 2008 03:46:07 +0000 http://fantasyh.wordpress.com/2008/01/05/reisinger-why-nintendo-can-do-no-wrong-with-the-ds/#comment-25 It does seem a bit unproffesional that he would make such a comment about the PSP and interactivity with PS3 then offer no explaination on how or why he reached that conclusion. Struck me wrong for that alone. I also disagree with his point that Nintendo could jack the price on the system and its games and we'd all still be slobbering over it. I myself have bought 2 DS systems, an original when it came out and my wife a DS Lite, and even both of those were AFTER the $20 price drop. Yes, it's a good value for a gamer, in my unprofessional opinion, but anything over the $150 mark for a handheld is something I won't be toting around. And as for the games being priced any higher, he's obviously not in touch with my level. If I had a choice between buying Nintendogs or GTA IV and both were the same price, I doubt my money would be supporting Nintendo any longer, my gaming would lie elsewhere. Good gaming is good gaming, but money is still a factor in my life, no matter how good the game may be.
