| Quote: | Los Angeles - Sony and Microsoft rule the videogame console market. But it’s third-place Nintendo that may have the most ardent fans.
How else to explain the scene at Nintendo's (other-otc: NTDOY.PK - news - people ) press event Tuesday afternoon at the Kodak (nyse: EK - news - people ) theater in Hollywood, where the company unveiled its new Wii console? The company said almost nothing concrete about the machine–like how much it will cost, and when it will be available–and the crowd lapped it up, cheering Nintendo executives on through most of the presentation.
Compare that to the scene at Sony's (nyse: SNE - news - people ) event at its studio lot in Culver City the day before, where gamers were swamped in statistics about the company’s long-awaited PS3–and managed to do an excellent job curbing their enthusiasm. |
