"The idea of a handheld rivalry with Nintendo is an irrelevance. Those formats don't appear in our planning. It's not a fair comparison; not fair on them, I should stress."
*Nintendo handhelds proceed to outsell PlayStation handhelds routinely.*
"The first five million are going to buy it, whatever it is, even if it didn't have games."
*The PS3 ends up selling poorly for the first few years due to lacking exactly that.*
"The Nintendo 3DS is a great babysitting tool."
*The 3DS goes on to not only outsell the PS Vita, but drive Sony out of the handheld market.*
"I believe that the Sixaxis controller offers game designers and developers far more opportunity for future innovation than rumble ever did. Now, rumble I think was the last generation feature."
*Sony gets backlash for not implementing rumble and ironically includes it later on via Dualshock 3.*
"It's probably too cheap."
*Sony comes under fire for selling the PS3 at $500-600.*
"Nothing good has come from the internet, period."
*Xbox Live revolutionizes online gaming and makes it a standard.*
"...But I fear that it won't have a lasting impact beyond that of a gimmick."
*The DS goes on to become the best-selling handheld of all time.*
"If you can find a PS3 anywhere in North America that's been on shelves for more than five minutes, I'll give you 1,200 bucks for it."
*The whole pricing scandal, ...again.*
"Microsoft does not concern us. Microsoft is not a technology company."
*Microsoft classifies as a technology company through making computer software, consumer electronics, personal computers, etc.*
"It's difficult to talk about Nintendo, because we don't look at their console as being a competitor."
*The Wii goes on to outsell the PS3.*
Boast and bash all you want Sony, but actions will still speak louder than words.
Sony losing to Nintendo and Xbox is pretty funny when they got too cocky over the years.
"They're not worth 600 USD, after all. *snooty laughter followed by sip of wine*
Sony: Microsoft is not a technology company
Everyone with a brain: **Looks at what Microsoft makes**
And I gather Thunderlane was not happy about his brother being scorned? ;þ
Sony should learn to brag after and not before. Bragging is still a dick move but it's a lot less embarrassing then bragging and later being wrong.
You know its bad when a game called Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory (a game for the PS3) had a plot point for the Hacking of Psn accounts through The Character Anonydeath.
That might just be one of the biggest roasts I have seen in quite some time.
Wasn't he spying on Noire or something?

Dishonorable Mention: Sony's new censorship policy introduced in 2018
If Nintendo are laxed with censorship this generation, you know that sony is screwing up
Jordan Felix considering what Nintendo is allowing on the switch, YOU KNOW SONY DUN GOOFED
Aka: Nintendo decided to let go some of the relics of their early gaming days.
Sony grabbed them thinking it would help them.
I had mention that before but on another channel, but yeah the time that Sony is being censorship happy while Nintendo isn't then you know that we might be in a rather shocking timeline.
ChibiSkitty19 when you know that Nintendo allowing saran Kagera uncensored,mk11,doom,
nekopara and doa extreme scarlet on their console, YOU KNOW THAT NINTENDO GIVES TWO SHITS ABOUT CENSORSHIP ANYMORE
“Night Trap will never be on a Nintendo Console.”
*25 years later:*
Sony:
Sin: Arrogance
Location: Their HQ
Distortion: Everyone as filthy, drooling peasants, while they are technological gods, who can change 1K for a console, that burns your eyes from the graphics.
*-Steal the Ceo's heart*
Mm, love the irony in that.

is that a Persona 5 reference?
Ironic seeing how need a PlayStation to play Persona 5

That was added afterwards. Did you notice my comment date?
Solura but I just love how he put a crab emoji next to the title.
HIT THE WEAK POINT FOR MASSIVE DAMAGE
Rarity enters the chat
Sony: (Doesn't see Nintendo as a competitor)
That's bound to end as well as refusing to acknowledge the presence or threat of your opponent in a knife-fight
I mean Nintendo is indeed a threat but in a way we do need the competition to avoid the stuff Nintendo does from time to time. Imagine if Nintendo destroyed pc gaming by having a monopoly? Sometimes is better for companies to compete rather than a single one calling the shots.
@@houndrysmagolyteofhope4661 Replace "Sometimes is" with "It's always" and I'll agree wholeheartedly.
They see Microsoft as a threat
"Microsoft is not a technology company"
I'm sorry, what?
To be fair prior to the orginal X-Box, Microsoft was primarly a software Company, sure they have some items (like PC mice) under their brand but they were best known for their software not their hardware. EDIT:after the orginal X-Box was launched that changed though and I wouldn't be surpriced that they're now know more as the company that makes the X-box series of consoles then the company that makes Windows OS for PCs.
@@SampoPaalanen Software is still technology, by defintion.
@@KittyKatty999 techincally yes but when people talk technology they more often then not mean "hardware"
@@SampoPaalanen not that their mice are really that much to write home about, considering their not for gaming and tend to have some underlying issues regarding sensitivity and or detection.
**Ernie commits a hate crime**
As much as I love Nintendo, I wouldn't mind seeing a Top Ten Fails about them.
Especially considering that probably their biggest fail is arguably one of the most important in the entire industry, and to be honest, one that kinda needed to happen.
I second this, they've done dumb stuff but their dumb decisions are very important to the indux
@@TheQuarterGuy ...I'm curious what you mean about that, but then again I'd say the biggest fail of the gaming industry was potentially Atari nearly destroying it.
I love Nintendo but that doesn't mean their perfect I mean look at their response to mother 3 ( incert e3 presentation), and lack of series of emotion that more recordice as smash brothers characters
Fun fact: that "biggest Nintendo failure"? After they made the error, SEGA was given a similar offer, making it THEIR failure too!
Honorable Mentions:
1. PlayStation Classic
2. PlayStation All-Star Battle Royal
3. Sony’s New Censorship Policies.
(All Side effects of Arrogance.)
The classic still hurts me. They screwed up possibly the easiest get rich quick scheme in gaming
Well o like their smash bros clone generally speaking
@@xcellentcreations3312 yeah. Their clone wasn't good
@@blitz4779 oh come on it's not like it's incompetent
@@xcellentcreations3312 it kinda is. It failed to capture what made smash great and the lineup is subpar at best
18:05- everything after. I can’t believe they were so....honestly the only word to describe the level of arrogance they have is absurd. “ the 3ds is a babysitting thing” well apparently babysitting is more popular in my eyes than whatever was around then.
Imagine an alternate timeline where the PS Vita essentially behaved like a Switch. Play the game on your TV, then pull it out and play on the go.
Sony may have had fails, but unlike EA or Konami, at least manages to have a better reputation, although from this video that isn't saying much. I still won't forgive them for making the Emoji Movie though, to me that is their biggest fail. Sony does need a piece of humble pie, and I have heard reports that the PS5 is supposedly backwards compatible with all previous games. So hey, at least I think Sony can be saved unlike EA and Konami. How the EFF did you get Linkara for your video? That's freaking awesome.
wait where was Linkara?
@@CrimsonSunMouse He was one of the voices at the number 1 entry. If you watch, you will notice the channel name appear underneath the person who is speaking.
+The Black Swordsman The problem with the Emoji Movie being their biggest fail is that it has nothing to do with the gaming side of Sony. That stupid movie was made by Sony Animation which is under their movie division. Meanwhile their gaming division is completely separate. They're under the same umbrella in that they're both Sony owned companies, but they don't actually touch in any financial or legal way.
@@umachan9286I know. I was joking. I still agree with Josh's number one pick. Although If I counted Sony as a whole, and not just the gaming division, The Emoji Movie would be near the top.
@@theblackswordsman953 like the firing of Vince magnani
Love the Number 1 on this list; extra points getting Linkara iinvolved, I had no idea you two had met. I knew you met Rob and Doug Walker (back before they effed up BIG time), but you get my point.
🦀 CRABS! I GOT CRABS! 🦀

Fun fact: Bravely Default (at least Bravely Second) has a monster called Enemy Crab, with attacks like Massive Damage.
Even Square Enix poked fun at Sony, and I love it.

The Vita later became a really good piece of hardware for niche genres and titles, but alas, the problems mentioned here, especially the proprietary memory cards, killed it in the West. Funny enough, Japanese 3rd party support kept this thing alive for years after launch.
I would've liked the PS Vita and PSP, why'd they done fuck it up like that? Some library games looked good, like God of War titles, Dariusburst for the go, an Uncharted game and maybe GTA Chinatown Wars
@singular on1 Those memory card things though, that's the problem
The thing is it wasn't obviously better than the 3DS to the average consumer yet over twice as expensive.
You could say this video.....
Hit Sony's weak point for massive damage. XP
Oh hi best girl. And the EXP issssssssssssssssssssss 1,000,000 which leveled you up to lv1 to lv100 and you now have 100,000,000,000,000 Plate stacks
And Sony took on the form of a giant crab monster.

Okay aside from the recent stuff with Fallout 76 and a blunder that was the horse armor in Oblivion I think I don't think there's enough for Bethesda for top 10
@@00KingKiller Jimquisition would like to argue otherwise
And Nintendo, don’t forget that
Ubisoft as well.
I give them more lenience than EA or Activision, but they've made their share of blunders via mistakes or arrogance.
@@00KingKiller I think there's enough for like a top 5 at least:
5). The Horse Armor (for being a precursor to cosmetic DLC and micro-transactions in mainstream gaming)
4). The general lack of progression both technology-wise in their games (using an engine based on the Gamebryo engine, which has it's roots to another shitty engine from the '90s.) and gameplay evolution wise, doing incremental upgrades rather than giant shifts (the biggest jumps are Oblivion to Skyrim, and Fallout NV to 4, and 4 stripped some features that were missed in NV, instead acting closer to Fallout 3 with better graphics and actual aiming, and reduced role-play mechanics (I have a lot to say on those subjects, but I'll leave it on that for now).
3). The PR disasters surrounding Fallout 76's launch (Canvas bag, Nuka-Rum, general PR, etc.)
2). Cutting pay bonuses for being 1 point off of the Metacritic score requirement of 85%, and generally trying to soft-restrict the development of Fallout New Vegas (forcing the team to use F3's engine and assets, and only giving them a year and a half to make the game). There's likely more stories behind that as well.
1). Fallout 76. The whole game , the game's launch, and what it stands for.
8:01 I remember Larry Bundy Jr talking about that. I am still trying to figure out how nobody designing the ad saw how wrong it looked.
Who else here can't wait for the top ten Microsoft fails?😁
Gonna need to be delayed on account of narrowing it down to just 10 :P
I know I am. This video was depressing, but it will be a joy to see how hatred Microsoft is
I hope the start of requiring to pay for online multiplayer goes into that list oh and the new thing of you need Live Gold to play free to play games.
Don't forget Nintendo top 10 fails.
Shawn Clark - That might be just a 5.

It wasn't outright difficult. However it used a new processor that people weren't yet familiar with. As it became more common though the status of the PS3 rose and developers unleashed it's full potential.
For me personally (and while it may be a recent thing) the way Sony has started treating developers who are outside of the US.
They've recently set it up that if you want put your game on their console you have to arrange a talk with them on their terms which means late and early nights depending on your timezone. And heaven help you if English isn't your native language. They won't get a translator. That's all on you. In fact they won't even have the meeting if you don't speak English/have an English translator.
This especially infuriating because for a couple of years now they had a thing in Japan called "Play Doujin" that allowed small time and indie developers over there to publish their games on Sony's consoles and now they've turned around and told them to all go fuck themselves with these current actions.
Treating developers like shit just because they aren't from the US is a terrible thing to do and it destroys everything they had going for themselves in the international market up until this point.
It's all the more disgusting that they're doing this since Sony WAS a Japanese company. Why do they feel the need to shit all over their home country and let Californian Naz.... I mean, "progressives"..... dictate what is and isn't okay on their platform?
This has aged well unfortunately given that recently, they closed down on their Japan studio (who made games such as Gravity Rush and Ico) just because Sony doesn’t see them as profitable and wanting to focus on larger studios like Naughty Dog. 😕
@@apollorock3r244 And here I thought it couldn't get worse...
That would have definitively made the list as number 1
So they became what Nintendo was in the 90s

"Let's all laugh at an industry that never learns anything, tee hee hee!"
I cant even take these seriously. Sony has been slaying it for like 3 years straight. History is nice and all, but I'm on freakin' cloud nine right now.
@@RavinFox They've been slaying it with Exclusives, which they just publish and don't really have a hand in when it comes to development. That just states they have good First Party Studios. But a lot of their bushiness practices recently have been dreadful. Like locking away peoples Epic accounts with zero warning, or censoring games, etc.
Meanwhile Microsoft has been making some great business moves like Xbox Game Pass or Halo MCC coming to PC, but they currently lack exclusives, which will likely change soon anyway since they just got 7 new companies last year
@@thewielder3445 Dude, first party is literally the closest you can get to these companies making that stuff and theirs have always been special. You can't even call that being lucky. Those are people who have been with them for ages. The killzone guys, which made games a ton of games on PS3 ended up making Horizon. It's sad that you can't even give them credit for that. I can already tell I'm talking to a hater when you can't even give the guys props for the love put into those games. You think its coincidence all these games have interactive photo modes?
Oh, kinda like Fortnite... a game that released as a tower defense game, patched the _hell_ out of itself to become a battle royale because of PUBG and *suddenly* wanted be crossplay with new platforms that *just* can out and had yet to even get their own online straight. Honestly, the fact that everyone jumped into that without thinking shows how flawed it is. Switch owners are slowly losing universal features on other platforms and some people can't even stand the game anymore. And the coup de gras is that Sony has been doing crossplay games since the PS2 while Nintendo never got into it, and Xbox refused to join back into it after FFXI in the PS2 days. Ultimately Sony has every right to not only refuse cossplay with these guys, but has been doing it forever now and everyone is playing dumb to the fact that they have. Now *that's* sad.
Furthermore, people are blowing the censorship higher than it actually is. Every game that's effected was already pushing it on the sexual side and not every case is censorship by Sony. Sometimes the Devs themselves really DO censor that stuff themselves but you guys are so blood thirsty for Sony that apparently, they're just the root of it all. Censorship apparently never existed before these guys. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Xbox doesn't sell platforms, misses out on a TON of Japanese games-- even canceling a major one, and quite frankly, has been the easiest platform for everyone to ignore because they have no exclusives which *IS* important to a platform. Also, they never would have even given out games for live if not for Sony. They've been charging for online since they appeared on the scene yet Sony was the one to teach them to actually offer services, if not games in the first place.
All the vocal cameo's made this for me (Alex you are alive?). Great content Josh, can't wait to see what's in store next time!!!
Sony was pushing their memory card things because they still had some bizarre idea that they could somehow push SD cards out of the market in favor of their own solution even though SD cards had already thoroughly dominated the market as far back as the original PSP.
18:19 ...I love how most of the countdown crew made cameo's here.
"Giant enemy crab."

Well, it DID look cool.....
But obviously not historically accurate.
@ultimateupgrade84 Now that's historically accurate.
@@34_Conflict Well if anything seems to be able to make up for that horrible reveal for Genji - which also created false advertising - it's definitely the upcoming Ghost of Tsushima (granted, let's hope no demonic crustaceans show up in it).
How is Sony's recent censorship policy not on this list?
Can you give me the TLDR?
Video was made before they announced that as far as I know. Yep, this video was uploaded near the start of February, and if I recall correctly, Sony didn't start doing their censorship policy until like April, so this video was before then, but I'm pretty sure Josh is pissed at that, too.
Getting your friends in on the sony quoting was great, Did not know you knew the majestic linkara of all people, and slightly wished that you managed to get Silverquill to voice one given some of his voices.
8:01 Seriously, who got fired over that?
Goddamn, people were really out here fighting over brand new PlayStation 3s at launch like they were Popeye's chicken sandwiches SMH I can't even 😓😂
Sadly the PS4 and PS5 got this too. Heck the Wii and Switch too. Like wth?
“pride goeth before a fall” that is what best describes Sony for me.
Hmmm, could also mention how despite not seeing Nintendo as a competitor. They have tried several times to copy them and failed each time. Motion controls, handhelds, touch controls, Smash Bros games, and of course the most recent Classic Mini system. Yeah, I know the date was early in the year, but still the PlayStation Classic tanked horribly right out of the gate. I think though that maybe that was the wake-up call to stop trying to copy Nintendo as the PS5 isn't going to be a hybrid system, at least not yet.
And now as a Microsoft supporter, I desperately want to see their fail list, and I bet, sealing their stance with Bungie has to be on the list. Microsoft has some bad moments, but hey, we at least have working backwards compatibility
The DreamChasers agreed especially what happened in 2013 with the Xbox one launch it’s a shame too that year tarnished its reputation its a good console ever since 2014
@@goldylover1000 Thankfully that failure managed to make them turn over a new leaf. They've been doing great since Phil Spencer took charge. And it looks like they're setting up for a great next gen with all the companies they bought last year
@@thewielder3445 And if Disney ever yanks the Star Wars license from EA, we might get a new KotoR from Microsoft's new acquisition Obsidian.
The 360 was a bit iffy on playing old Xbox games, but your point stands.
It's funny how sony tries so hard to combat piracy and hacking of their consoles yet their consoles are the most easily jailbroken systems.
12:20 I FREAKIN KNEW IT! This small detail has literally bugged me for years
You forgot that a big problem with the vita was it’s battery glitch. I had one and I found that many people were having a problem with the batteries out right dying without an official fix by Sony.
First, HOW did you get Linkara to do a voice clip? Secondly, I was expecting a lot of.....bad employee treatment. Nice to see they aren't THAT bad. And I swear, if people had their credit card info stolen, they should have alerted them the second they found out.
Hey josh if Capcom fails is coming get quarterguy on it
He should have got him for the Konami fails. Or, he did, but... not directly.
@@Vampocrat well he did let josh use a voice of him saying Konami eerytime he swears so theres that
Let’s see, we got:
Disc Locked Content For SFXT.
Canceling Megaman Legends 3.
Locking the True Ending Of Asuras Wrath Behind DLC.
Marvel Vs Capcom Infinite.
Megaman X6.
Street fighter 5s launch.
@@voltingmaster5458 Don't forget Megaman x7
Markel McDonald Yes But X6 was an unnecessary sequel that was made without inafunes permission, even X5 Was supposed to be the last game in the X Series, causing Inafunes production on the Megaman Zero Series to come to a halt, forcing him to rewrite the story from the ground up.
Sony: Well, gotta blame somebody, otherwise it's all our fault.
FCK
THAT
Quick honorable mention in my opinion:
Forcing Valkyria Chronicles 2 to be a PSP title spelling doom for VC3 being Japan-exclusive.
Those horrific PS3 commercials were contracted to David Lynch, a surrealist HORROR MOVIE DIRECTOR.
So that explains why they sound like something out of a horror movie...
Wow, I didn't know how you got a lot of those other people to provide voices for those arrogant comments, but great job all of you, especially you, Josh.

Thank you, I needed that clip! ^w^
12:00 The saddest thing to consider when it comes to the vita is that it’s still going strong in Japan.
It’s only everywhere else in the world that’s gotten shafted US in particular.
It failed in Japan too
@@LukasHeinzel how did it fail in Japan? Every video I’ve seen that talks about the success of the vita talks about how it was actually doing really well in Japan?
Every video game company has flaws. It’s great to see a channel not discriminate between any company. I won’t even be angry if you point out the flaws of Nintendo.
Booth I and my parents think that Sony is full of bull$*!t as well.
Sony also purposely left the legacy collection of Jack and Daxter in a glitchy messy condition
Yeah that was fun
12:37 Now we know where Kojima got inspiration for doing Death Stranding
I love how all of these are after the sixth generation. Comes to show how much the company changed afterward.
With the Vita the issue, as I understand it, is that the machine was too powerful. Paradoxically, having your console's specs be too high can come back to bite you, since it means that making games for your console costs more money than usual. This problem gets amplified by the fact that most people making games for handhelds are generally looking to spend less money and are aimed at players who also want to spend less money.
19:07
YOU GOT BLOODY LINKARA TO CAMEO IN YOUR COUNTDOWN?!
Fun fact:
PlayStation Home was originally going to be a default hub for the PS3, but made it into a separate app.
Just think about it, PlayStation home being your default hub that you can customize, find people to talk with and play games with. Then head off to game.
Dang that would have been cool.
How all stars battle royale was not at least an honorable mention was beyond me...
"Ooooh, it's probably too *cheap* "
I'm rolling!
19:08 I laughed pretty hard. I still can't believe that was an actual thing someone from the gaming industry actually said.
Nice video, as always!
Loved the guest voices at the end! I would have contributed mine, if asked. I'm awesome with voices! 😊
"The ultimate UA-cam countdowner crossover doesn't exist-"

What are your thoughts?
As Daniel Floyd so ably put it on _Extra Credits:_
"Oh, and Sony, a word to the wise: Do not tangle with the kind of people who install Linux...on their Playstations. Trust me: You are wasting your time."
Top 10 Sony fails in 10 words or less:
10. At least Miiverse lasted longer.
9. What’s wrong with just using analog sticks?
8. If at first you don’t succeed…keep failing.
7. A system for RPG fans…eh works for me.
6. Even Sony forgot about their own accessories.
5. Even Sony forgot about thieir own system.
4. You’d think Sony would consistently know how to launch consoles.
3. No wonder UA-camrs constantly sponsor Express VPN.
2. So here is this giant enemy crab.
1. Arrogance, thy name is Sony!
You’ve got to do this for all the fails videos
Personally I would add getting booed for partnering with AT&T, firing Kevin Butler’s actor for starring in the Nintendo tie-in commercial with Bridgestone, and any of their video game movie ventures.
Can we get an top 10 fails of Nintendo and Ubisoft?
Ya know, that Sony Home thing actually sounds really cool. I'm a PlayStation fanboy, but I was dirt poor during the PS3 era (couldn't even afford to have internet or a smart phone) so all I could afford was a used XBox 360 and thus never knew this was a thing. It's a shame it didn't work out, because I would've loved it, and I bet it would've been really popular once VR came out and they implemented it.
You get extra points for having Linkara in this.
4:20
Well. Not necessarily. Rumble can interfere with the motion controls and it requires a lot of fine-tuning to mitigate. Nintendo put in that effort but Sony did not. Nintendo could afford to put so much resources into the controller because the console itself was quite easy to develop.
They were making rumble but were having trouble perfecting it. With the X-360 already out they made the decision to just cut the rumble out since it was entirely optional so that the PS3 could be released.
6:14 Well played, Nintendo. Well played.
12:29 and now the new ps5 pro will cost 700$ in us, 700£ which is 914,68$, and 800€ in europe which is 882,30$ and these prices are withouth the vertical stand and disc drive
5:56 I see that ratchet skin, don't fool me Josh!
All jokes aside, you're very well spoken based on video game companies and their mistakes. While I do love Ps4 games, their decisions can disappoint players based on what they think of their news. Well done joker! Your flames have been blessed. 🔥
Wait the guy who works at SONY with the PlayStation.
Who was quoted saying..
" Microsoft isn't a technology company"
I am sure bill gates is laughing his ass off on that one.
Going with Persona 4 comparisons, if EA is Adachi and Konami is Izanami, does that make Sony Namatame? Or would they be more like Yosuke, with Capcom being Namatame? (And, for that matter, would that make Nintendo Yu Narukami?)
I find it’s easier to use Persona 5 comparisons and I think Nintendo is sloth
Forgot this video existed which lead to a question with an obvious answer like a giant glowing neon sign saying “ dude check out the video order, it’s not that hard!”
That Uncharted card game spinoff... I have a problem, but not with the game itself. Basically, negative fan reception is one thing, but that game was basically criticized for being a spinoff, and thus not having mainline uncharted gameplay. Like, do you guys not know how spinoffs work?
>I-Toy being a failure
I bloody loved I-Toy growing up, my uncle had it and when there was a party at his house, it would be one of the party games alongside the Pokemon party game thingy for the N64
I wouldn't say the I-toy was a failure. They didn't sell that many but Sony also didn't invest that much. They just considered it a fun optional accessory.
Holy crap Josh that ending song took me WAAAAAAAAAAAY back to the good ol days of the console wars and their fun songs. I used to listen to all of them constantly.
To think, Nintendo created Sony as a Console Rival. And years later *Sony* is the one trying to mimic Nintendoes success. Oh irony; so sweet yet sour.
The entries about cross-play and backwards compatibility have gotten... really interesting recently.
For starters, while Sony apparently DOES now allow for cross-platforming, they're also the only one that charges the developers in order to do so. This has lead to Randy Pitchford of Gearbox saying that they won't offer the Playstation version of Borderlands 3 to have crossplay, and for once, he doesn't seem like the one to blame.
And then there's the PlayStation 4's internal clock. Apparently, someone recently discovered an "error" with the internal clock that, to cut a lot of technical jargon out to get to the point, is slowly counting backward and will brick the console when it hits zero, making it seemingly impossible to play games on the console. This would be bad enough, but considering this was discovered AFTER the the launch of the PS5, which was heavily hyped as having backwards compatibility, it feels less like a mistake and more like a really insidious calculation.
JOSH I am surprised you didn't say anything on the terrible storage capacity the ps4 had or the fact that it was terrible at maintaining an internet connection.
And as of 2022, sony increased the price of the ps5 outside the US...
not to mention inflation and an upcoming recession.....yeah

Oh boy, we have a few new ones from them for the 2021 fails video. Damnit, Sony.

So is there going to be a Nintendo fails and Microsoft fails countdown in the future by any chance? I mean you did EA, Konami, and now Sony so it wouldn't surprise me if you do them.
Oh and you might as well do Ubisoft too.
@@shadowlinkbds like Nintendo Nintendo it's more mistake
I'm thinking that's going to be the case, alongside a Capcom Fails list. Seems like that might be next.
and activision
I would give a dishonorable mention to the butchering of their first party IP's over the years like: Jak & Daxter, Sly Cooper (Sorry Thieves in Time fans), & Ratchet & Clank.
"Microsoft is not a technology company"
BOY W H A T
Whats worse for the Vita is that Sony lied about it's lack of a region lock. THE STORE IS REGION LOCKED. If a game is digital only, never had a physical copy on the Vita, and is not released by the manufacturer in your region, you are SOL. Sure you could change your region, but it required you to have 2 separate storage cards as changing region will force a card format! Freaking NINTENDO, who had much more egregious region locking mind, actually showed them how to do proper multi-region account handling without telling half-truths. :X
This one should be updated, with the 35% price hike of PlayStation Plus
Speaking of the PlayStation Move, does anyone remember The Wonderbook? Unless you’re a Harry Potter fan you’re not gonna get much with only 4 books (2 books being contributing to Harry Potter verse) being centred around it.
For the arrogance part, you could’ve also added a line Ken Kutaragi said about the PSP: “I believe we made the most beautiful thing in the world. Nobody would criticize a renowned architect's blueprint that the position of a gate is wrong. It's the same as that” (For context, the switch for PSP’s square button was moved, but not the button itself, leading to it sticking and being unresponsive. Sony didn’t care, of course, because they didn’t want to alter their precious handheld’s design and the quote above was their excuse).
Censoring M-rated games, extorting devs for crossplay, shifting all focus to the western audience while becoming anti-Japanese in the process and paying 3rd party devs for exclusivity to PlayStation.
Don't forget forcing Atlus to keep their main franchise, Persona onto Sony consoles only, despite Atlus giving many spin offs like Persona 4 Arena for the XBOX 360 AND making Persona Q and Q2 for the Nintendo 3DS, and now a Persona 5 Dynasty Warriors-esque spin off for the Switch.
Give the PS3 something, you didn't need PS+
PSP's UMDs/not so good launch and the PS Vita not doing well in sales(and having the lack of exclusive games on the console)is the reason why we need the PS5 to get it's own peripheral called the PS Nova which would have backwards compatibility to previous games on the PSP/Vita, a long battery life, the features of the PS5, a backlight, an extensive library, streaming being avaliable, SD memory cards, a touch screen, and advanced cartridges(in the power of the Nintendo Switch's major amounts of processing on a cartridge)as well as compatibility to the PS5 and playing both the home and portable console PlayStation games throughout the years on the go.
4:30 Good thing Sony is learning their mistake with PS5 since they filed something about it for making backwards compatibility for all console games from PS1 to PS4.
I’m really enjoying the “Company” Fails Top 10 lists recently. I wonder if there would be more in the future. This could be a series. 😊 Maybe either Microsoft, Nintendo or Capcom should be next.
This company I only play the psp that’s where I play my first sonic game but if you put a weapon on me and choose which console I like i would pick Sony (although I am Nintendo and sonic dude) because idk I guess i like the games library better I guess they just need to stop being arrogant pieces of work,offer backward capabilities,stop motion controls,and better handling of the products better moreover the hand held market
