Reply to comment by THEY_CALL_ME_FACE in Why are video game consoles photographed standing up now? by THEY_CALL_ME_FACE

What sort of dumb logic is that? I could just as easily say it wasn't meant to be laid flat.

You're the one with the dumb logic who suggested it was meant to be stood up right due to the pictures and rotating logo. All i said was that is not always the case. Only Sony can confirm if it was created to lay flat or upright.

So they just put a rotating logo on it and released an official vertical stand for the LOLs? What about the plethora of PS2 Slim packaging that shows the console stood upright?

And oh look, it's the PS2 shown in both orientations at the official reveal by Sony themselves in 1999.

You're also more than welcome to peruse the instruction manual and read the section detailing that you can position the console horizontally or vertically.. It even details the fact you can rotate the logo! Almost as if they planned for it to be stood upright...

"Almost as if they planned for it to be stood upright"... Is that an official confirmation from Sony? No. You just made yourself look like a fool 😃

So in the INSTRUCTION MANUAL that I linked you missed the section that says "you can position the console horizontally or vertically", so yes, that is in fact official confirmation from Sony.

What was that about making yourself look like a fool 😀

I know the manual says "you can position the console horizontally or vertically" but you did not confirm if the PS2 was created to be an upright console from the very beginning.

"For example Sony might say "The PS2 can be be stood upright, but it was created as a flat console from the beginning because upright can scratch the disk or cause the console to fall over"

So the manufacturer explaining in the fucking instruction manual that it can be stood up somehow isn't confirmation that it was designed to be stood up? You also ignored it being stood up in the 1999 reveal.

It's also no more likely to scratch a disc than when horizontal, and the vertical stand was also shown at the reveal.

Don't reply further, because I am done wasting my time replying to your idiocy.

Hello? Anybody Home?

What I'm saying is can you confirm that the designer said "im going to create a console, it will be specifically a stand up console, my first concept drawing of the console will be of it standing up"

(well all know the console can be stood up but thats probably because Sony decided to include the vertical stand afterwards)

The vertical stand was shown before the console released.

What the fuck does any of this matter? You still seem completely fucking Ignorant to the fact that yes, yes someone designed it to be standing up.

Oh sweet titty-fucking Christ above, you're not wrong. One of those people that has a brainfart and decides to post it on Reddit.

I also loved "I want to play a modern game like Streets of Rage online"... I dunno, maybe consider Streets of Rage 4 lol.

On god, that guy has to be clowning. I think their point collapsed into "if the first draft wasnt presented as standing then it shouldn't" but that makes no sense anyways... Can't believe you give him hard evidence and its blatantly disregarded, like this thread is literally the Patrick star meme. Good luck surviving the migraine that this part of the internet is
