As many people out there know, the Playstation Network went down on the 19th as a result of external intrusion. This has created a very wide spread panic because on Monday it was revealed that the hackers who have caused this issue could have taken private information such as Names, Addresses and Passwords. Sony has done their "best" to fix the situation, up security and get federal investigations to find what information was taken. This concerns me because I'm a huge PS3 fan and have owned my system from day one! Luckily the lack of online play hasn't affected my gaming cause I tend to go solo anyway, but still, I want my private information safe.
Many theories have come out about the invasion, including the newly added Steam connection and hacker terrorist getting revenge on Sony. This has led FBI to investigate several people, Law suits towards Sony and even a U.S. Senator to address the issue. What people haven't mentioned much was a Security Warning that appeared on Xbox 360's and the sudden "un-banning" of blocked 360 accounts. Sure, Microsoft is claiming their in control and these issues aren't nearly as devastating as what's happening with Sony, but we can't just ignore this as a happenstance! These attacks could be connected and there's only one logical explanation...THE Wii 2!
Nintendo's recently announced system has been reported to out powering even the PS3 and was said to change gaming. We all assumed this meant some brand new gimmick, but what if Nintendo went too far this time? What if they made a sentient system? It would make sense that during its testing it would destroy the competition so only it could shine. It's taking PSN information so it can locate any customers it will need to control. It's showing Microsoft they aren't the super power they pretend to be. It's putting its rivals in their places before it even appears on shelves.
At E3 Nintendo may not just be announcing a new system, they may be announcing our new ruler!
