Don´t you mean a "why phone?" And Shadowlayer, as Yakumo-sama said to you politely . But you didn´t get it, then I have to simplify it for you. He meant shut the hell up about the socalled Nintendo stealing from Apple. And well, if I remember correct, then it was apple, that took the inspiration to their cube design from Nintendo, not the other way around. But who gives ? I don´t. But when there came an apple clone which was more powerful (overclocked maybe ?) than the mac it was compatible with. Then Apple didn´t like it. And stopped the production of more units. Even though it was a better "mac", than the real mac.
Even if they make, like 5 games for it total - millions of people will still buy it just to conform. There was an April Fools Article at least a year ago where Apple was to come out with the GamePod or something like that...
As for Europe is was. Bad sale over the PSX which was cheaper and had a better marketing (not games though). For Jag theres about 20 CD and 60 cartridges depends what all you count. At least not in Europe as you can see the poor sales of iPhone.
wolverine, seriously, shut your pie hole... Check the dates: the G4 cube was released even before the GC was unveiled, so I fail to see how apple could've been "inspired" by the GC, unless jobs has a time-machine. Taucias, I see a lot of similarities, basically becos it was the industrial design at Apple the one that decided to break away from the square style of the 80s and embrace a more "organic" look during the first half of the 90s. Theres other brands that also decided to pick up the idea, like Acer with the Aspire. Meanwhile brands like Compaq and IBM kept the old block-like style even during the late 90s.
never knew that making something cube shaped would be stealing ideas from apple.... ....oh shit, my keyboard is white....must be apple influenced.......bloody hell, my psp is shiny, must be apple... OMG the apple im eating LOOKS like the apple LOGO, they should sue the farm industry!
Becos doing it at virtually the same time doesnt means theres any connection whatsoever Dude whatever, believe what you want to believe, but under your logic the SIXAXIS is mere coincidence and has nothing to do with the Wiimote being released before and making the front page everywhere... Anyway, I'm tired of this, specially becos I'm no apple fanboy...
Everyone steals/copies/emulates everyone else. What is the point of trying to say someone came up with a certain look and feel first when chances are good that they probably didn't?
What is the first amendment in the American constitution ? Well you should know it since you are an American. But I do know what it is, it is the freedom of speech. So no I will not keep quiet. Amendment 1 - Freedom of Religion, Press . Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. probably the rest can be read here.
You are mixing apples with pears, because as everyone know Sony say that there will be classic DualShock2 and after Nintendo release Wii with Wiimote they made in 3 weeks new controller to show it at E3. On the other hand you are trying to show as some of your conspiracy that everyone is stelling from Apple every idea they come with up. And that only show you what hardcore fan you are. Just like the fanboys from Sony who are trying to fight every time they can. This remember me the teen wars back in time when you have a lot of testosterons and you think that only you have the right and you are the God of the Earth ray:
I wasn't mean! I just can't replicate that sort of concept in my own words, ie , I can't create engrish out of nothing so I thought it was cool
barc0de: you tiny little asswipe. michal99´s Engrish is better than my English. And well, when somebodys Engrish is better than my English. Then it is time, you shouldn´t be teasing him. And by the way he is from The Czech Republic, then show some god damn respect ! Or else I will be getting a link that is a bit let us say, not that political correct about a Tuborg Squash commercial that was about Feta, and not Squash. And I will be putting it in my signature. And go figure what else I could do.
blah blah blah. It IS engrish, but that doesnt make it a bad thing, hence the word classy. for once, stop playing cop
I wasn´t playing a cop, I just got pissed off. And if you didn´t understand, then he said. Shadowlayer behaved like a god. And the rest was filled with sarcasm. But it is strange, that a foreigner (me) understood it without any kind of translation. But well maybe it is because I am a foreigner.
last time I checked, you were an American from Greek descent who spoke Greek, and now lives in Liverpool England. but am I wrong ? Anyway, I understand English/Engrish writings. because I want to understand.
Nope, I m primarily Greek but also a holder of a US nationality. I understood what he said as well, hence only highlighting a certain portion of the post.
