Nintendo has "stolen" plenty of things too, folks. It's how the industry works.

The only thing I can think of that Nintendo has stolen is the Wii U pro controller, but the N64 controller looked like that somewhat and so did the Classic Controller Pro, so they didn't really steal anything.

Putting NES games on cartridges? Stolen.
Putting Gamecube/Wii games on discs? Stolen.
Using Memory Cards to save games? Stolen.
Dual analog sticks? Stolen.
Motion controls? Stolen. (Seriously, Nintendo wasn't the first to use come up with the tech)
Touch screens? Stolen. (See above)

And so on. Let's keep things in perspective.

The Power Glove, to me, was the first motion controlled device. It wasn't designed by Nintendo but it was an officially licensed product by them....albeit an awful one.

Don't think this thread is getting locked, looks fairly civil to me anyway.

@3Dash, et. al — if you don't like the thread, don't post in it. no one's forcing you to click the title to check it out.

either way, this seems pretty civil as far as these threads go. if we all keep it civil, I won't have to lock it. :3

The Vita hasn't even been out for a year, yet we have to say which one is better right now?
If I would have gagued the success of the Dreamcast at launch versus the PS2 at launch, I easily would have said the Dreamcast was better. 10 years later, and the PS2 is nearly undisputedly a better system.

Once again, no vote from me.

Best thread ever

3DS. Never played on a Vita but looks pretty cool. It just needs more games.

3ds. (@Sonicmon you may want to stick with past consoles, as it will keep the flaming to a minimum. :3)

The Wii had like... 5 awesome games for it so yea... PS3 for me.

The Wii definitely had more than 5 awesome games. Granted I prefer the PS3 but the Wii is also a great console. Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Smash Bros. Brawl, Mario Kart Wii, Super Paper Mario, Punch-Out!!, DKC Returns, No More Heroes 1 and 2, Sin & Punishment Star Successor, Red Steel 2, Wii Sports Resort, The Last Story, Xenoblade, Metroid Prime 3, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, LoZ: Skyward Sword, Little King's Story... That's way more than a mere 5 games and I'm sure I'm missing some.

AS far as 3DS vs. Vita, it's close but right now I have to go with Vita.

Nintendo "stole" the concept of touch screens (Nintendo didn't invent it), buttons (the NES was not the first console with buttons), motion controlling (Nintendo didn't invent it), Glasses-free 3D (Nintendo didn't invent it)... oh and here's the great one - Nintendo stole the idea of an analogue stick on a handheld console from... wait for it... Sony!

Nintendo also stole the idea of wireless interaction between handheld and console from Sony (been happening since the PSP/ PS3 days), and Apple (Apple TV/ Airplay).

Nintendo takes existing technologies and applies them to gaming consoles. While this is innovation, it's hardly creating new technology. That it works in the market and then Sony decides to improve on it (the Move is technologically superior to the Wiimote)... that's not stealing, kids. That's just being a business.

@OlympicCho we've already flipped the page, so please don't reignite it.
