Famitsu threads are literally just for delusional weebs and tendies to larp as Japanese citizens. No one cares about Japans exclusive sales. It would make more sense to showcase worldwide sales if you cared that much about consoleslop to begin with. It's literally just a bias statistic for people to jerk off to. Honestly it should have always been on tech rather than used for people baitpost eachother like retards. I hate console niggers.

I don't get why they try to cling onto PC as if they're relevant in the same way. It's been like this for so long, you don't need a Nintendo console if you have a PC. You can pirate all the games eventually.

Console warriors are so busy infighting that they don't realize core-gaming platforms (i.e. consoles and PC) are dying because ipad kids and smartphone kids aren't getting consoles/PCs, they're staying on their mobile devices until they burn out from the overly shallow and predatory mobile games. The average age of console and PC users is going up because children aren't being funneled into the platforms anymore.

No, Wii emulators happened fairly early on just like Switch emulators and no one bought a Wii U. It's fanboys trying to align themselves with the only platform that matters even though they're irrelevant. Even the Wii60 was Microsoft's marketing team trying to own Sony(it worked).

I was there during the ps4/wii u era. No stream of shit posting went on longer then the gold face sales braging ps4 tards.

We would no joke get daily updates on how well the ps4 was selling and they would invade every thread that was about a video game that wasn't available on the ps4(PC and wiiu/3ds games)and shit it up. All the while the ps4 had very exclusive games to brag about as 95% of its users used it to play fifa, cod and gta.

When the shoe was on the other foot with the switch selling gang busters I would only ever see a sales update for it after it had sold another 20 million and people would actually talk about the games on the console as there always seemed to be a new exclusive out.

So no the hate isn't unnecessary Sony tards deserve to have their noses rubbed in their own shit and humiliated as the switch becomes the highest selling console of all time

You stupid fucking zoomer, during the 2000's the 360 was getting more and better games than PC because PC players were all playing the same few multiplayer games and not buying anything new and the PC ports that did launch later on like Dark Souls 1 are notoriously some of the worse of all time. It was a literal dark age in PC gaming if you were a single player gamer but a golden age if you loved multiplayer games(especially MMOs).

If you were PC gaming during that period, you were playing WoW, DotA, CS or TF2 all day. You had no use for a Wii. If you were a Wii gamer, you were better off with a 360, or a PS3 if you wanted a region free console to play Japanese games.

Nintendo/PC was bullshit and massive cope from Nintendobabs. Seriously, why the fuck would the easiest emulatable consoles be the winning combo in a era where 90% of console games didn't even get a proper PC port?

>>721639272
If playing video games was your hobby, PC was always best because it had a great backlog of incredible games, both single player for experiences and multiplayer for competitive bullshit. If playing video games was your LIFE and you had to constantly have the new AAA blockbuster the magazines were talking about, or the only activity you could think to do with friends was sit on a couch and play shootan, then consoles made sense. It made sense as a kid to get that wrapped up in it, but it was never a good idea. PC has always been the right choice.

Yeah, PC and console had very different games until just recently but for a long stretch of time being a PC gamer was suffering if you didn't have your forever game you were playing with the boys on Vent/TeamSpeak/Mumble. So many games like Mass Effect were released on 360 before PC and then when some games came to PC they'd be stuck behind GFWL. But no one really cared because Wrath of the Lich King just dropped.

The point being there's way more games available on other platforms than the Switch 2, the Switch library if you didn't care about Nintendo games was atrocious and the Switch 2 isn't any better. Nintendo is just the last remaining holocaust survivor that forces you to buy an e-waste brick if you actually cared to play their shitty games. Fortunately I don't.

Seen as lesser since it prominently advertised with the waggly Wii wheel controls; I will concede that it did have real controls, but they didn't convey that at ALL in the advertising or box art.

No, that its surface level library did a lot to paint its reputation, especially paired with an American division that stifled actual weeby core-type games.

Switch still has to reach the original sales number of the PS2, yet alone the updated one even if its real or not to be considered the most selling console ever, and I have my doubts it will achieve that with the Switch 2 in the market and a 4 million gap to reach 155 millions

Claiming PS1 knocked Nintendo out of the spec race is wrong, but PS2 knocking Nintendo out of the spec race is actually true, GameCube was their last go and actually competing for power but PS2 basically mopped the floor both with GC and Xbox

You claim games for a more hardcore fanbase, but you have to stop believing your knowledge is the same as the casual knowledge, if 80% claim Nintendo to be a kids console, then they will end up believing that fact, also listing Mario Kart or Wii Sports only proves the other anon point of it marketing to grannies and toddlers

While emulation always has it's own pros and cons to it, and there will always be at least some appeal to playing software on it's native hardware. (personally, it's why I prefer eventually jail-breaking the hardware I own, so I can both enjoy the perks of things like modding while still being able to play those modded games on native hardware)

The topic of affordability is a mute point. If a consumer is already capable of saving enough money to buy a truly high-end PC, they're also capable of buying a home console to. If you're in such a position where you can afford it and are keen to own both a gaming PC and a home console, why would you not gravitate towards a Switch over a PlayStation or an Xbox? Sony and Microsoft both release native PC ports of their games eventually (and for anything multiplayer, Sony has publicly established they are not keen stagger the PC launch like they do with their single-player games, so there's no real FOMO factor to consider.) It just seems like the logical conclusion to make unless you're just the type of person who isn't into Nintendo games (which is a perfectly valid position to take, it's just a matter of tastes and preferences.)

N64/GC weren't flops so for Nintendo it wasn't as bad even if they lost third party support (which is still bad obviously)
PS3 for Sony was a giant disaster. It cost them billions, it caused them to overspend on exclusives to try to stay relevant and just as live service boom happened Sony was shutting down studios left and right. PS3 indirectly caused PS5 having no games 2 generations later, PS3 indirectly caused Concord

I dont think I am. The GC wasnt a specs drop off, and it couldnt have seen the PS2 sales coming. more likely it saw how an underpowered toaster like the PS2 sold better and went in that direction, which paid off for it with the Wii. When the switch outsold the discount PC's of the XBX and PS5, it only confirmed their theory that power and specs dont matter to consumers

And that similarly mindbroke snoys that generation (and turned them into overly smug goldface-spamming baboons when the PS4 turned things around similar to what nintards turned into with the Switch). Even with the PS3 beating the 360 in the end, the 360 was still perceived as the default console of the generation since the PS3's jump ahead came way too late to flip the script (and wasn't a huge jump).
>>721645943
The WiiU muddled the certainty of specs/power not mattering for Nintendo. Remember, this conversation was about attitudes and reputations going INTO the Switch.

Not a financial flop no, but actively losing market share after the dominance Nintendo had in the bit-warz era was still an issue. It doesn't matter now because at this point Nintendo is unfortunately evolving into a lifestyle brand like PlayStation or Apple, which means they've established enough of a reliable consumer base to make that pivot, but making the business pivot that they did following the gamecube was warranted. Even if the hypothetical Gamecube 360 was still making a financial profit, it's not good for overall company growth if every single console was just occupying less and less of the same market share like with the trend they were experiencing on the lead-up to the 7th console gen. Something had to give.

Yeah but they still had GB/GBA at the same time and GC stuff still brings in money/attention to this day. People literally begged for WW/TP ports to NS1 the whole generation.

>Nintendo is unfortunately evolving into a lifestyle brand like PlayStation or Apple
In what way? They always focused on games and talking about fun, that sounds like the opposite of lifestyle branding.

For the Switch in particular, emulators could run 30 fps games at 60 fps and also in 4K. Even if you own a Switch and buy games on the Switch, there was still a reason to play them on PC anyway after supporting the devs because it was simply the best way to play the game.

With that in mind, if you want to look at it pragmatically then the PS5/PC was a better combo than the Switch 1/PC simply because you got access to every game day 1(and the PS4 before that had a lot of exclusives that only got ported later on). Those who can wait for the PS5 games to get ported to PC can wait for a Switch 2 emulator as well because while you have to wait for each new game individually for the PS5 ports, once a Switch 2 emulator is out then everything is day 1 again. That being said, the time for PS5 timed exclusivity keeps getting shorter and I wouldn't be surprised if it stops being a thing at all by the start of next gen and there's truly no reason to own anything other than PC unless you really like Smash or Splatoon.

I think you could have made a case for the form factor of the Switch pre Deck but with UMPCs becoming more popular, that's no longer the case.

There were definitely repercussions to many things the ps3 did. I think during that time Sony thought they had killed their competition and they could do whatever they wanted. The ps3 being more powerful then the 360 but almost all multiplats running worse due to the stupid cpu architecture was ridiculous, mostly because they designed it that way to further try and crush their competition.

But yeah the ps3 was where playstations identity was laid to rest along side all its ip's. The ps4 was a fifa machine to most of its users and the PS5 al most literally has no games

You and your faggot console trash deserved all the hate.

I own a PS4 but it isn't hooked up and I haven't touched it in years. My Sega Saturn is hooked up and I mostly play old RTS games like Total Annihilation on my steam deck or play on my Vita which has like 20k hours of use it's a fucking launch model and still works perfect. I'm playing the Armored Core 3 games for the fiftieth time on Vita.
Point being new games are faggot shit. Spend $6k on your stupid computer and what do you get, the ability to play shitty fag games? Just keep the shit you have and never spend another dime on this gay hobby. I just got through 1CCing Contra, Super C and Alien Wars and it took up half my year and I guarantee I'm having more fun than you playing troon shit

Golden era was the PS1/N64. PS4 2015-18 comes close though. PS2 was just the greatest system of all time sales wise but I agree the games didnt come close to those two listed above. Id say the WII 2009 was even better.

its honestly kinda crazy to realize that the ps5 wont be leaving behind any sort of legacy. ps4 had bloodborne and gravity rush 2, ps3 eventually stacked up a bunch of good exclusives, and i shouldnt even need to mention the ps2 and psx.

ps5’s big claim is… astrobot. and even that’s probably getting ported to pc/xbox/switch2 before the ps6 shows up. this is xbox one levels of forgettable—there’s zero reason anyone’s gonna pull a ps5 out of the closet in 10–15 years like people still do with ps1–ps3 (and ps4 for BB/GR2).

it’s just gonna fade into nothing.

I don't think the majority are arguing they hate Nintendo's games, it's more a matter of thinking it's bullshit to have to buy a shitty system with shit ergonomics, no dpad, trash screen, all so they can play like 3 fucking first party games that are worth a damn so it's better to just have access to them. I love Mario, but I will never as long as I live buy another Nintendo console. Why's that so hard for you to get?

MGS2 ran at locked 60 fps. God of War 2 had cheat code to unlock 60 fps mode (cheat code because they haven't playtested it but included it in case it worked fine, which it did) so there is no excuse for any game to run at 10-25 fps.

It's largely principal for me I've entirely stopped buying new shit because no one makes a good dpad. I mostly play NES games on my vita. On my PS4 i bought all these collections, Contra, Castlevania, Darius, etc etc and the dpad was fucking ass. Then I got a switch which has NO dpad (which is insane) and I thought ok I'll get a pro controller so I can play these old games I'm gonna rebuy and guess what the fucking dpad is broken, can't handle diagonals, Nintendo knows and doesn't care, so they can all burn in hell I'll just play my old shit on old consoles

It always benefits consumers to NOT have one company as a clear frontrunner, as competition delivers better products.
