Why did the PS1 and PS2 succeed so well, yet the PSP and PS3 were commercial failures?

Alexander B asked:


Although the PS1 was technically inferior to the Nintendo 64, and maybe even the Sega Saturn, and two of the best games of all time like Super Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time were on the Nintendo 64, the Playstation dominated its generation because of a strong third party support, and great games like Metal Gear Solid, Grand Tourismo, and Crash Bandicoot.

PS2 arrives, and tramples all over the Dreamcast, Gamecube, and Xbox. It even beats the PS1. Sony stole the crown from Nintendo, and held it for a solid two generations.

Times have changed. The PSP planned to take the crown from the Nintendo in the handheld market. It failed terribly. With slightly more sales than the Sega Saturn, the PSP has nearly maxed out, with not much hope left. The Nintendo DS wins this round.

Playstation 3… It completely imploded. With a launch worse or equal to the Sega Saturn, it may be doomed.

But why, and how? How did Sony go from top to bottom so quickly?

Faron asked:


I have seen multiple websites and I’m sick and tired of these stupid answers. Where is the Rabbit King? There is no way to get into the Peach Picture (I have tried it with invisible Luigi a million times). There is no way from the cannon to the black box because its on a corner, and even with Action Replay (you can float) it doesn’t work! HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

What does Mario say when you enter a level in Super Mario 64?

justjenn54321 asked:


I think he say’s Sweet Pickles…my husband thinks he say’s Left to Go. Does anyone know? Anyone?
So when he jumps into the painting, he says something like “lets go”. But when you select what star you are going for (ie red coins, top of mountain, etc.) he says something as the level begins. I swear…it sounds like sweet pickles.
