Kutaragi is a jackass.

"We don't care (about the Wii or Xbox 360)."

Too bad there are millions of people that do. :down

Can't sleep WHF? Me, neither. Anyway, it was said before the beginning of time that someone by the name of Ken Kutaragi would once walk the Earth, create something "big," and become the most arrogant, egotistical bastard known to man. So far, it has been proven right.

I wasn't trying to be funny, it's just that I am bored and I can't stop typing...

I am starting to hate Kutaragi. He is gonna be the death of Sony's game division.

[블라스]

LOL Talladega Nights was hilarious.

Anyway, yeah this guy sucks, and he's Japanese, so you know it pains me to say this, but yeah, he sucks, and he's Japanese, so you know it pains me to say this, but yeah, he sucks.

He's also the guy who envisioned the Playstation, struck deals with Samsung that continue to make them money, forced the company to adopt MP3 when meet with heavy resistance (that ultimately cost him his position outside of SCE) and pioneered the "taking a loss on hardware" strategy that Microsoft and Nintendo have addopted. He's a little out to lunch on some things, but credit where credit is due, he's not a stupid man. He's made the company billions of dollars and is in charge of one of the healthier devisions in Sony.

^I think he means he doesn't care about what the Wii or the 360 are doing, he's said they were good consoles but he's just not worried about them because he thinks people will see the potential PS3 has to offer :confused:

[Zenien]

It doesn't really matter Sony's response to this sort of thing has always been the same, they focus on what their numbers are based on their own expectations, not relative to Microsoft or Nintendo.

Kutaragi is an ass, I'm not sure why people still defend him. There's supporting your company, and then theres being an idiot.

Kids Ken Kutaragi says the darndest things. Though never easy to opine on your competition to a reporter, the father of the PlayStation had this to say when asked by British trade magazine MCV regarding Sony's next-gen competition (Xbox 360 and Wii): "We don't care." Ironically, this statement was made in the very same interview after admitting to PS3 production problems. "Right now ... we can't manufacture enough blue laser diodes for our PlayStation 3s. But we will resolve that," said the Sony exec.


Maybe Ken was having a bad day. Maybe he's tired of all the unfavorable publicity the PS3 is getting. If not, someone get this man a muzzle



Any businessman that implies an absence of competition seriously needs a reality check.

nintendo? last i checked, nintendo has made profit on ever console sold, and even if they do its veru small. thats why nintendo went cheap on us on the wii. fills aime confirmed that nintendo will be making profit right of the box. which kinda makes me feel a bit betrayed by nintendo.

I think so too. If it does happen, Kutaragi, the man who started it will be the one who kills it.

You're right about the Wii, but I'm pretty sure they took a loss on the Gamecube initially though. I might be mistaken?

[CM Punk]

Kutaragi is probably the main reason I don't want a PS3, just out of spite for him.

i dont know, but i feel very shortchanged by nintendo:(

Oh. I just don't want it because it has the worst games of all time for $599.

[CM Punk]

Well, that too.

[블라스]

These forums really move on saturday nights :up:

[WhatsHisFace]

It seems dead to me. But this is again the Sony forum, which I don't think has a good ratio of actual POSITIVE posts to negative. This is a pretty negative area of the boards.

[CM Punk]

Which is also Sony's fault.

[WhatsHisFace]

That's true. If their games didn't all suck the fat one, with the exception of a three year old Xbox port, there'd be something more to do than make fun of Motorstorm.

[Zenien]

I'm glad that we have such a bastion of objectivity here to enlighten us.

[THE LIZARD#1]

I love Kutaragi!!!!!!!





































I'm bored:(

[xwolverine2]

why the hate?:(

[Ass Assassin]

I bet Kutaragi could hit some Nintendo pussy anytime he wanted.

[CM Punk]

I bet he couldn't :dry:
