Comment Craiglist is a useful site overall (Score 1) 390

I'm not sure about saying that print ads are more dangerous than craigslist, but I'd guess they'd be about the same danger as far as I'm concerned. It is a useful site, I'm using it now to see if I can find someone to loan me some WiFi access while I stay with my autistic son in Pittsburgh.

Comment Re:Staging A Nintendo Win? (Score 1) 224

If you look at the DS/PSP "war", you can see how a lower price and a different approach (touch screen) to gaming can possibly lead to success in the gaming world. So far, the DS is in the lead overall around the globe compared to the PSP.

If you apply this comparison to the home console war, it may be Nintendo in the lead once again. The Revolution will be at a lower price, and will approach gaming a bit differently compared to its console brethren.

This analogy has its flaws, however. The PSP is a newcomer, and many people seem to trust Nintendo in the handheld market because they haven't been exposed to anything else. As time passes, more people may begin to trust Sony. Also, the DS had a launch head start before the PSP could even get its foot in the door.

Only time will tell who will win the PSP/DS and Revo/360/PS3 war.
