I have recently found out that if the Nintendo Revolution fails, Apple is planning to buy Nintendo and create their own console, with Apple Graphics Technology.

but they arent saying you have to..... i wont. they are just doing what any business does, if nintendo made tv's or HD tv's and laptops and cd players and many other electronics you dont think they'd try to get you to buy it too? of course they would. just like if nintendo wants you to get their DS or gameboy carrying case.

Of course every business is a business and youre going to get good and bad points out of that.

But Nintendo is far less aggresive about it than Sony, and shoves it alot less in your face. You dont have to get a Nintendo brand case, but its probably the best one youre going to find. Why? because Nintendo makes quality products, so even if they do want you to buy it, theres a damned good reason.

eh, sorry but, you kinda missed my point. let me explain, i was just using the carying case as an example, far less of a priority than an HD television would be. nintendo doesnt make any other type of electronics that doesnt pertain to gaming,and usually those things arent really electronics. Sony on the other hand makes many many things, TV's, laptops, VCR's, DVD players, CD players, home theatres,movies, and basically anythng else you'll find under the electronics category. they'e been making these things long before they've been in the gaming industry. and all these things fall into the same category of computer entertainment systems. which is the reason why you might find them trying to sell you their products harder, because they correllate with their fellow electronic device. i guarentee you if samsung suddenly came out with a video game system they'd do the same thing.

microsoft cant do this because their software only pertains to computers.

and nintendo cant do this because they arent an electronics corporation, only in the video game industry. so saying their stuff is better quality is an extremely bad comparison. what, are you comparing.... their carying case? so you cant really say nintendo is far less agressive, when you dont really know what they'd do if they were actually in the electronics industry. but seeing as what every big business has to do to thrive and survive, nintendo would do the same thing.... and they'd be smart to do so.

...and what does it matter as long as they arent forcing you to buy it?
