But the thing is Microsoft is one of the only company's that could do what they are doing.. Loosing $400M a quarter in the Home and Entertainment division which is where the Xbox is. And another thing. microsoft has like 16 divisions.. Only 2 of them turn a profit. The rest all runs at negative value. Also i don't think Sony bought any of square. Squre went to Sony because it was cheaper to manufature and then they agree to sign a contract with Sony for final fantasy games. thats why you see other games from square on other platforums.. More like the Gba and there Sword of Mana etc.. Square just went to what makes them more money.. which i don't blame them for that.. that was Nintendo's fault for going with the Cartridge based N64. Which i remember an old magazine showing shots of the next FF that was going to be on N64 but then they changed and made it on the PSX. So they originally was going to be for the N64.
Never knew that...I am surprised that Nintendo did stick with a catridge system even at that time for a number of reasons....
