Mikami attacks Sony and Square

So because your PS1/2 has never had any problems, there\'s no defect?

Ask Altered how many PS1\'s he bought...

My PS1( first model) has the typical overheating problem (choppy FMVs,games not loading).I think all early models started to have it after some time. But it still works in a 45° position.

it seems i\'m one of the lucky ones, i\'ve had my psx for 6 years and let me tell u it has been thru alot.the only problem i\'ever faced was when i droped my controller and it shorted out the controller ports (it was easily fixed).

I posted that picture of Mikami because it\'s the one Magic Box has above their news article about what he said.

If you want to see the whole magic box news story, go to my link a few posts up.

It\'s good to know the man you\'re talking about

Yes, yes, thats why I posted it... :sconf:

LOL - this is absolutely redicolous (sp?)...

for what please do you have warranty? If your PS2 or what ever Sony electronic equipment brakes down and you still have the warranty, you can have it fixed with no costs. Comparing this with a systems sales is just pathetic.

Oh and Adan, head on. A remade Resident Evil better than a completely new game? yeah, that says it all.

shakes head in disgust

I still have the launch PS1 and it works like a charm.  However I always read on this forum about how many people have faulty PS2\'s.  My friend is already on his 3rd!  I guess I\'m lucky.  My PS2 works great.  I think all the consoles are made cheaply ever since they went to CD\'s.  My 16 bit consoles(Genesis, SNES) hell even my ancient Atari 2600 works perfectly!

:o My, my... this is quite unexpected. I always thought
Japanese ppl never say such things so directly. Anyway,
imo it\'s a low blow by Mikami to attack Sony\'s hardware,
including stuff like walkmans just becuz he is dissapointed
in the number of sold RE copies on NGC ! Totally unfair
to link his sales number to the quality of Sony\'s PS2 and
consumer behavior in general. Btw, I got my PS2 at the
PAL launch, it\'s still very fine !

Maybe it\'s not the quality that went back - maybe the electronics are just getting more delicate?

Remake or not, whats wrong with thinking Game X is better than Game Y?

Ok, a remake can be better, but he was obviously refering to the sales. It\'s also pretty obvious that a remake might attract less people than a totally new game. Then one also needs to wonder: Bio Hazard was first and for so many years basically exclusive to PlayStation - them changing platforms is only the price they\'re paying for. It\'s obvious that any Resident Evil game would sell heaps more if it were on PS2. Them taking it to GameCube and crying over bad sales... well too bad Capcom! Suck it up.

I\'ve owned three PSone\'s, my friend has owned two PS2\'s and there has been HOW MANY posts on this before about people\'s PSones or PS2\'s dying? Too damn many, in my opinion. It is obvious Sony has a quality problem with their systems, there is simply to many people having problems with both generations. Hell, even game magazines have made fun of the fact that a lot of people had to stand their PSone\'s vertical just for a game to load. So, I think Mikami was right on the money on that issue.

As for the Kingdom Hearts comment - I believe it is childish for any developer to comment on any other developers game in a negative way.

Thats my two cents on this issue.

I\'ve also said it before, I see how a lot of people treat their electronics, even the ones that are convinced their treating it right, and it\'s truly a sad sight. I am not suprised at all how many systems brake.

It\'s really odd, that the people who I know treat their systems right, have never had such problems... :rolleyes:

So you\'re saying there is no Sony defect...

Just people who don\'t know how to take care of their consoles?
