I recently posted about the Gamecube controller and there was some talk about the console itself. This video came out shortly afterwards and goes over a lot of what was discussed in that thread.
Gotta love this statement from a Nintendo of America person fretting about the Cube's colour before release:
Show
I guess they were right since they were talking about American gamers in the year 2001
Many people I know still got a PS3 for blurays
I'm sure a lot of people did, but I know a lot of people who've never owned a Blu-Ray player so I kinda get the impression that it didn't catch on the way DVDs did.
It didn't, I'm just saying that people still got the PS3 for its Bluray capability (though obviously only after it got cheaper)
Yeah streaming kind of killed Blu Rays for the mainstream
