Is Switch 2 going to kill off Sony and Microsoft? The Xbox brand basically destroyed itself by having no games, but are we going to see Sony fall off and all games ported to Switch 2 for the next eight years while Sony sells us The Last of Us Remastered number 10?
>>
>Playstation has had no games for 20 years
>Xbox has always been complete shit
>The WiiU flopped so badly Nintendo had to combine their incredibly successful handheld with their home console to survive
I think all three will die soon leaving only the PC master race just kidding phones will win and kill gaming once and for all.
>>
>>721894486
Switch 2 will destroy Nintendo too, there will be shift to mobile and cloud gaming
>>
Nintendo will die before PlayStation as one finale monkey paw against tendies
>>
I think you mean Switch 2 kills Nintendo. They're not pleasing anyone and don't have a backup dedicated handheld like 3DS to save their ass
>>
>>721895884
Mobile is tanking and cloud is a non starter.

The shift to mobile already happened years ago. We’re past phone games peak. We’re currently watching gachas’s death spiral at the moment.

>>721894486

Nintendo didn't have to do anything. Xbox blew its brains out with a shotgun and Playstation is dying from a COPIUM overdose.

They have already fallen off. PS2 was the last great selling Playstation. They will NEVER hit those numbers again.

apple is going to start getting more and more market share. Apple devices are way stronger than a switch 2 and so many people already have them in their pocket. Apple doesn't know what the fuck they are doing in the video game market though.

They hardware is there and affordable now. Apple is trying.

Xbox could have something if they wouldn't stop cancelling games and shutting down studios.
Helldivers managed to get a port and sold better on Xbox than it did on Playstation so there's still an audience there, they just need something to play.

Premium-priced games on mobile have been tried many many times. Resident Evil 4 on iPhone failed twice with both versions getting sales somewhere in the low tens of thousands, whereas there's plenty of free-to-play garbage with microtransactions you've never heard of making a billion dollars a year.

I think they'll lose several millions of sales. Playstation doesn't have exclusives, Nintendo has third party support. So if they lose 10-20 million in hardware and Nintendo gains around that (also thanks to Xbox and new players) then that's a big problem for Sony. Let's say 10 million hardware lost. It doesn't soundl like a big number but that's accessories, lost game sales that goes to PC or Nintendo, lost PS+ subscribers. That's losing billions and it'd be extremely hard to get them back.
>>
>>721900125
>So if they lose 10-20 million in hardware
PS5 sales are currently under 40 million behind what PS4 did in lifetime sales.
They've still got several years of support before PS6, this years Black Friday and Xmas sales, GTA6 launch and so many other opportunities to sell millions upon millions of consoles.
PS5 ending up 20 million short of PS4 sales would effectively mean sales would have to dive off a cliff immediately.
>>
>>721901269
Support in games, yeah, support PS5 when they got PS6 coming? Yeah no, not how things work. They can't even make PS5 cheaper so there's no reason to keep it around, they'll shift things over to PS6 ASAP because that's the only way they can "fight" Nintendo/PC in general and it's a losing battle.

>PS5 ending up 20 million short of PS4 sales would effectively mean sales would have to dive off a cliff immediately.
I'm talking about the PS6 vs PS5. I can't see the Playstation handheld making up the difference in lost sales either. People don't seem to comprehend what third party support does for a console, it was practically the only real reason why Playstation was successful in the first place
>>
>>721894486
Switch 2 isn't going to kill shit other than itself. Nintendo are now the first company to put out a $100 game in Pokémon ZA. The fact that Nintendo have priced families and children out of the market is going to bite them really hard. Merging the home console and the budget handheld option was a huge mistake.

There's an enormous uptick in interest in retro gaming at the moment and gamers are more value minded than ever. Three of this years GOTY contenders were budget titles and that won't go unnoticed.

It's a shame that Xbox's public image never really recovered from the One launch over a decade ago because their eco-system and hardware are probably the most consumer minded of the three main companies. If more people gave it a shot, I think they would like what they have to offer. Moving into PC handhelds is a really smart move for them.

Sony just want to make all of their games prestige TV and make all of their games have ridiculously high fidelity to justify getting their high end products but forget to actually make their games fun. Not the worst but they're going to run out of hills to climb pretty soon. Especially since the PS5 was essentially the PS4 Pro Pro.

>Is Switch 2 going to kill off Sony and Microsoft?
Honestly a home console still has a few good reasons to be bought over a portable console, so I doubt it.
If anything a Steam Machine today would be the most likely thing to kill the PS/Xbox.
Xbox/PS have pretty much all their exclusives on Steam OS at this point, putting that into a home console box would pretty much kill any reason to buy a PS/Xbox since you would get both their libraries plus the all the PC exclusives the deck supports.
>>
>>721902351
If some shit steam console is made it'll sell a few million at most and Playstation loses a few million sales at most. Unless Valve massively invests billions and goes all-in nothing will change.
>>
>>721902707
If the rumours about the next Xbox having access to Steam as well as potentially other storefronts and is marketed well, that could be a huge shame up
>>
>>721902942
Stores seem to be dropping Xbox altogether, I'd be surprised if we even see their next console or console PC or whatever it is
>>
>>721902942
The next Xbox is nothing but a "Xbox Game Ready" badge on existing pre-built PCs from third parties, no different from the Multimedia PCs of the 90's
>>
>>721903047
I don't see that being a long term thing. I'm sure that there are people at Microsoft having big talks with retailers as we speak. And if they're not, Microsoft published record profits last year which means it might not make all that much of a difference to them

>>721903645
Good, desu. Anything that brings power and value back to the consumer is a good thing
>>
>>721904037
Xbox didn't even want to do gamepass, Microsoft is tired of losing money and they're not interested in competing anymore. Companies can say a lot of things but it doesn't mean they're gonna do it
>>

>MacOS is suddenly a lot more enticing

If you are avoiding apple products at this point, you are a legit sperg. Macos is a pleasure to use. an actual unix system, that is stable for years; one that doesn't spy on you. Apple hardware isn't even expensive anymore. there is no reason. Windows 11 is a fucking nightmare.

Apple hardware absolutely demolishes plastic windows junk. I'm still pissed about the $1500 lenovo legion i bought that shit itself in under 3 years with light use.

I sold all my xbox and pc shit. I'm primarily gaming on mac now. It's promising. Native mac silicone games are going to keep coming out. I just picked up death stranding directors cut from the app store, on sale for $20.

Apple is making an effort, but they are going slow. Bioshock 2 is what i'm playing now, it runs great(aside from getting the dual shock to work)
>>
>>721899283
>Premium-priced games on mobile have been tried many many times.

yeah, the culture and support isn't there yet for serious gamers. They are trying, but I don't think they are going to really do what they need to. I don't want to play resident evil 4 on my phone. but IOS/Ipados/Macos are all becoming unified now.

Apple needs release a controller, and have iphones + ipads able to connect to an external display.
>>
you can't kill the home console market, they need their retard boxes and no amount of work from valve will budge the brand recognition nor are they willing to migrate to a portable console
if anything nintendo is more likely to go multiplat and chase the bag as well
switch 2 has nonexistent margins and there's way more money to be made in actually selling games

it does but steam + mac os still have all sorts of fucking issues. I had to add bioshock 2 to macos global controller settings to get it to work. It was hard finding that solution.

>>721905462
they overcharge on storage and Ram, but it subsidizes the base devices which are extreme values. a base mac mini and macbook are great deals and suitable for 90% of users.

plastic power hog shit that that wont last 5 years. And you are stuck with windows hell. Macos is so much nicer and secure than windows. parallels and crossover can run windows shit.

When Nintendo got into the DLC game this is something they specifically said they weren't going to do.

They're meant to be a company that represents children and families and every decision they've made this year has been against that

They're already dead. Next Xbox won't even use Microsoft's own custom AMD APU like previous Xbox, it's going to use AMD's APU that will not only power the next gen Xbox, but Xbox OEM PCs and PC handhelds, and Valve's Steam Deck 2.

Most likely

I did, you just don't see those posts (I'm lying btw)

>>721908576
Still too early to say for sure. RE9 day 1 is big but it's still a blip on the radar, literally. Nintendo would need 99% of releases to be day and date because they need to build trust in the system. As long as Sony still gets every single third-party game day 1, nothing is going to change. This isn't going to happen unless Nintendo invests billions into third-parties to kick their ass in gear, but there's no point in Nintendo doing that because they can just invest billions in their own studios. This also includes games like Roblox and gacha games, which probably make up 70%+ of Playstation's PROFIT at this point.
The funny part is that the entire console userbase has stagnated (besides gen 7 which had a massive combined userbase of like ~550 million, the combined userbase of consoles has stayed around ~250-300 million), and since JP devs are fucking incompetent when it comes to the big moneymaker (mobile games), these third-party retards like Atlus and Bamco have no choice but to develop for the Switch 2 if they want to sell premium games. You can already see it with Square Enix when the new president was like "what the fuck are you dumb sacks of shit even doing?" It'll be a real slow process though and I don't see these holdouts doing day1 Switch2 releases until the end of its lifespan.
>>
>>721908216
I mean all that does it make every other alternative outside of most indie devs look just as bad if not worse with their deluxe editions and shit, especially those that give '3 days early access'.
>>
>>721895884
Cloud gaming isn't growing and mobile gaming has already peaked and is now declining. Seems like all of this was nothing more than a trend. Switch 2 and Steam Deck 2 are the future of console and PC gaming.

You're insane bro, when Switch 2 is getting RE9/007 day one everything changes. Even if it's getting GTA 6 late it doesn't matter, it'll get it before PS6 is out. Getting the biggest third party game of all time and thinking nothing changes is crazy
>>
>>721894486
>Microsoft
Already killed itself some time ago, what we're seeing now is the shift to a third-party model. That being said, it's only a matter of time until the Pajeets at Microsoft ruin that business too. We're already seeing signs of that happening with games being canned, new releases flopping and studio shutdowns.
>Sony
PlayStation will stay around for some time. The performance gap is much smaller now, but the Switch 2 isn't quite where it needs to be to completely invalidate the existence of a dedicated home console. PC also has stopped advancing against consoles thanks to abusive GPU pricing and shit ports, so there's no immediate threat from that side of the industry either.
The real question is whether or not Nintendo can keep things going smoothly without feeling the urge to shoot itself in the foot, as they have done so many times before.
>>
>>721910404
steamdecks done shit and you think the 2nd shitbox will do anything
>>
>>721911051
I will laugh if GTA 6 gets delayed again and then the next time we see it, it's not just on PS5 and Xbox Series but also on Steam and Switch 2 while being verified for Steam Deck 2. It would kill PlayStation so hard while solidifying that Xbox is over.

That's just a part of the third party process, Microsoft (Sony will be and is kind of doing this already) is downsizing their studios and putting focus on projects that are already guaranteed money. The live service games pay for their singleplayer games.
>PlayStation will stay around for some time
They're making every single decision Microsoft is making and they're cheapening out when it comes to next gen console parts, Its questionable if anyone will be willing to even get the PS6s. Their handheld is also facing both Nintendo and Valve now, Switch 2 at $450, Steam Deck 2 at $500.

Not at all, also, that's a shit insult when trannies are on everything. How about instead of calling everyone who owns a Switch, Steam Deck, or both, you work with us to remove trannies from gaming completely, but not just gaming, remove them society as a whole. I'm starting to become annoyed that trannies even breath the same air that I do now, they're an abomination that needs to be erased.

PC probably wont even get it until at least 2 years later, same goes for switch most likely.

GTA V was 2 years to hit PC, most likely will be at least that or longer this time.
>>
>>721912414
Xbox is dead, fuck off, no one will get it, and Microsoft will make sure of that. Sony will raise the price of the PS5 consoles again. Everyone will pressure Take-Two to price GTA 6 at $100, which will also make it sell less.

>>721912374
yeah and when the deck2 does like deck1 you be like the the 3rd one will crack the market

>>721912738
So sony is going to have GTA 6 as an exclusive pretty much.

Thats grim for tendies. Considering GTA v led to the death of the Nintendo that released near it
>>
>>721912603
It's pretty much over for Snoys and Xbots, they're on their last cope, and this is it. Take-Two is probably seeing the writing on the wall for both PlayStation and Xbox, and the massive growth of Switch and Steam, not even they can deny that money. The window to boost PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series sales have past and Microsoft wants their home consoles pulled from retailers, it's over. Hope that normalfag arguing in favor of Xbox and especially PlayStation gets that.
>>
>>721912727
Switch 2 will get 35-60 million users in no time and then go on to outsell PS5, GTA 6 will be there as early as they can with a smooth launch. The earlier T2 can get it to Nintendo, the more it will sell and they know that. I think PC will get it last as usual but I don't think that's a bad thing, they'll get the best version ultimately if they wait.
>>
>>721894486
Sony and Microsoft will have to learn the hard way that games as a service and subscription netflix like models are not profitable and when they're almost completely ruined they will go back to tradition and maybe people will give them a second chance. Meanwhile Nintendo will just keep dominating.

There's just something so weird about PlayStation, like they intentionally removed the soul out of it.
I remember playing FFX on the PS2 and having the time of my life, I can still go back to it and enjoy it immensely.
Then I'm playing FFXVI on the PS5, it feels like a cheap copy of it, like it has nothing to do with FF or the old Sony, there's just something very wrong about all of it. I have the PlayStation, a game in the disc that says Final Fantasy, but it feels completely soulless. This is the same for all franchises that were once great in the old days. The PS5 is now for Fortnite, FIFA, and whatever other zoomer crap, that's entirely how it feels like.

>>721913432
Then why is it running RE9 without issues?

>>
>>721913541
Its running RE9 like how a PS4 will.

Very behind. And it costs as much as a PS5 that can actually play games at 120fps.

If the S2 is going to be this third party machine, you better be running games better than a 12 year old console
>>
>>721911051
Yeah, it's literally not enough to reduce Playstation's installbase to Xbox numbers. Until Nintendo gets the majority of third-party games day 1, Playstation consoles will still sell. It's still too early to tell how well support will be, but third-party support is still just "decent" and obviously better than the Wii U and Switch 1 but that's a given. Also, I'd wait until the RDR2/GTAV port is officially out (if it even comes out this year) before saying anything about Rockstar's support.
>>
>>721913052
I can guarantee that Sony and Microsoft will be pushing hard with live service and singleplayers. This is up Microsoft's ally, Sony, not so much. Both blew too much money on gaming. Nintendo did right with DS, Wii, 3DS, Wii U, and Switch. It's what kept them going. Sony and Microsoft screwed up going for power during the 7th generation and now high-end gaming is crashing for it.

That's partly because the original developers either retired or never moved past the PS2 anon

It gets worse, Valve doesn't even sell these in stores, ASUS's and Microsoft's ROG Xbox Allys are being sold in stores yet the Steam Deck, only being sold on the Steam Store, is still outselling the ROG Xbox Ally with a lower price point. Valve could sell the Steam Deck 2 on their store only again and still own the PC handheld market, lol. God, Microsoft is such a failure, kek.

The S2 is becoming like Nintendos PS5. Theyre trying to push third party stuff now over exclusives. And its worse in every regard compared to PS5 on that front.

Consoles are dying.

The Video Game Console market is shrinking, getting older and getting more affluent.
>US households with a $100,000+ income now make up 43% of video game hardware sales, a rise from 36% just a few years ago.
>18 – 24-year-olds only accounted for 3% of video game hardware purchases in the year ending July 2025, which is down from 10% for the same period ending July 2022.
>The average age of console players in 2024 was 27.9 years old. That’s up from 24.2 years old in 2018.
>Consoles are generating significantly more revenue than ever before.
>PS5 unit sales is currently tracking slightly behind PS4, while Xbox Series S and X significantly lag Xbox One.
>Last year in the US, 12 million console units were sold, the lowest figure in eight years
>by the end of 2025, the number of active devices for the PS5/Xbox Series generation will be 14 million behind what the PS4/Xbox One achieved during the same point in their lifecycle. The company estimates that gap will widen to 20 million by the end of 2026.

Why is this happening?
>The cost of consoles are continuing to rise during a time when families are growing concerned about food prices and tariffs.
>Consoles are not the entry-level game devices anymore, with tablets and smartphones becoming the typical ‘starter’ device for younger games. This poses a challenge for console makers on how to ‘upgrade’ customers from those devices to dedicated games machines.
>And with the rising cost of game development, we’re witnessing a drop in exclusives and an increased multiplatform focus from publishers. Even Xbox and PlayStation are releasing games on other devices (including PC). This potentially weakens the appeal of these machines.

>Until Nintendo gets the majority of third-party games day 1
It's the biggest games that have the most pull, some random indie game that's exclusive to PS5 only might sell like 1 PS5 lifetime, Switch 2 is indirectly stealing Playstation sales on a permanent basis. Why? It's out first and it has the 2 year old, it's a big advantage.

>I'd wait until the RDR2/GTAV port is officially out (if it even comes out this year) before saying anything about Rockstar's support
GTA 6 will come to Switch 2 before GTA 5, there's been no rumors on GTA 5 so I doubt it's coming any time soon. The fact I'm still seeing people saying shit like "I'd buy a Switch 2 because of RDR2" shows how dire the situation is for Playstation. Rarely have I seen that and it's just one of the games coming.

Snoys and Xbots are coping, even third parties see that no one is interested in the generation after the PS5 and Xbox Series which means most won't make the jump. Sony COULD lower the price of the PS6s but everyone with a brain knows that's a pipedream and Sony is most likely going to push for $600-$800 for the handheld and home console next gen. Xbox, in general, is dead. Nintendo and Valve won by purely staying out of it.

And also by spending billions buying some of the biggest companies in the industry who also delivered no games. Xbox will seppuku itself with no outside help from Nintendo or Sony. Probably half the company is incompetent diversity-hires now who only see the world through skin color and gender, they can't afford ten-year development times for games any more even though really no one can, and they just can't shrug off losses like they used to.

Snoy on the other hand will be fine. Nintendo has been trying to kill it since the N64 with no luck.

PC isn't getting smaller because the high-end of PC is getting more expensive. PC is getting bigger cause more low-end PC users from the third world are becoming gamers. Places in the world where consoles aren't affordable or available.

Capcom has also been blaming PS5 for the garbage games theyve made for it so dont be surprised if they put it on PS4 as well.
>>
>>721914784
For real? Are you a paid shill? The PS6 will be exactly like the PS5 is with a system that's backwards-compatible to the previous gen's library because that's the only way to create a full game catalog right at launch. Hardware-wise it'll be like the PS5 was to the PS4, which is the same thing but with higher capacity. That's also the logical way to go.

The only thing Sony really needs to do to push the PS6 is allow save-transfers from previous consoles.

They don't have to be as good as a PS5. They just have to be accessible, available and used.

Literally all franchises have been doing worse on the PS5 than they did on the PS4. They called the PS5 a barrier because of the install base, but the bigger issue is that they're just not buying games, PS5 users only play Fortnite and use it for Netflix. Same exact shit happened to Square.

They're in a position where everyone who owns any other platform also considers getting a Nintendo. People who don't play many games are fine with just a Switch, but there are more people every day who don't need any other platform. There's a reason the Switch sold 150 million while the others make 150 million while put together.
On one hand you have the option of a PS5/Xbox or PC, but a Switch/Switch2 has no competition so you will buy it anyway, it being portable only adds to this.

>>721915995

This is absolutely delusional, they're just not announcing games beyond the first year of the console, why would you even think there's nothing on the horizon when that has never been the case for Nintendo?

If all you care about is portability, it makes more sense to get a PC handheld, especially if you have a PC. I actually ran into this problem right when the steam deck came out. I was using the switch for Nintendo and indie games at first, but I realized how much more sense it made to get indie games on steam once I got a steam deck. After that, my switch only got played for smash and the occasional first party game. Nintendo really needs to just shit out first parties like nobody's business and actually make them worth the Nintendo tax.

It took 2 years for V to hit PC and 6 is going to be multiple times even bigger than that.

Are you, PS5 has been complete crap, Sony can't even get most of the PS4 players to drop it for a PS5, it's going to be even worse for the PS6 no matter how many try to shill it. It's pretty much over. There is no longer any room for high-end gaming.

How many were in stock, that can manipulate and I can guarantee that when there are more in stock, not artificially, it's going to collapse in sales. I already have a hard time believing Sony's sales data, you want me to somehow believe Microsoft's sales data when they lie more than Sony?

yeah the Switch's game library is so ridiculously huge on my end, between games in my backlog and the ones present in my wishlist, that it would take me a good 10 years at least to play them all. And that's without taking account of all the eventual Switch 2 games in the future. There is no point in owning a secondary platform these days, and spare time is the biggest bottleneck.

You know, that's an absolutely fair comment but as far as "collapsed in sales" goes, I don't imagine the projected market is that widespread but the fact that it's got a lot of normies talking about PC handhelds is pretty big.

GTA is just cope for the dying PlayStation and Xbox brand because they have nothing else now and it's a shit cope for yet another "TIMED" exclusive.

Those will just make the game's division of Nintendo bigger. The Switch 2 shows up in the toys section of the Wal-Mart shopping booklet. Nintendo continues to promote their products to kids. This is why they'll remain successful. Know you market and audience.

Consoles are dying.

The Video Game Console market is shrinking, getting older and getting more affluent.
>US households with a $100,000+ income now make up 43% of video game hardware sales, a rise from 36% just a few years ago.
>18 – 24-year-olds only accounted for 3% of video game hardware purchases in the year ending July 2025, which is down from 10% for the same period ending July 2022.
>The average age of console players in 2024 was 27.9 years old. That’s up from 24.2 years old in 2018.
>Consoles are generating significantly more revenue than ever before.
>PS5 unit sales is currently tracking slightly behind PS4, while Xbox Series S and X significantly lag Xbox One.
>Last year in the US, 12 million console units were sold, the lowest figure in eight years
>by the end of 2025, the number of active devices for the PS5/Xbox Series generation will be 14 million behind what the PS4/Xbox One achieved during the same point in their lifecycle. The company estimates that gap will widen to 20 million by the end of 2026.

Why is this happening?
>The cost of consoles are continuing to rise during a time when families are growing concerned about food prices and tariffs.
>Consoles are not the entry-level game devices anymore, with tablets and smartphones becoming the typical ‘starter’ device for younger games. This poses a challenge for console makers on how to ‘upgrade’ customers from those devices to dedicated games machines.
>And with the rising cost of game development, we’re witnessing a drop in exclusives and an increased multiplatform focus from publishers. Even Xbox and PlayStation are releasing games on other devices (including PC). This potentially weakens the appeal of these machines.

Nintendo only reports annually for a reason. Because the numbers monthly are abysmal and not worth showing
>>
>>721929397
>Real consoles like Xbox and PlayStation
lmao, the moment you think other aspects are more important than the video games themselves, it the moment you can no longer be considered a REAL console. Nintendo has the only real console that exists. Gaming is Nintendo and PC, that's it.
>>
>>721929250
What else are they going to do? They have no games.
>>
>>721929819
The funny thing is, is that PlayStation and Xbox are essentially PCs. So yeah maybe it is all pc, but PlayStation and Steam have roughly the same monthly users.

Ps5 is just a better pc that gets games before the shittier windows gaming systems.

And Nintendo has nobody playing it monthly. It’s shelf candy

>>721930708
The thing is, is that PlayStation is likely to outsell the ps4 this gen with gta 6 releasing and the Xbox being nearly off the market. You can’t run from the fact that they’re using an entire year vs ps or even steams consistent monthly counts. Those are legit platforms that people use day to day. It’s the way it is
>>
>>721894486
The switch 2 can't save sony and microsoft because sony and microsoft developers are trying to peddle off game key cards to an audience that buys pretty much everything but fucking game key cards.

>>721931108
the ps5 will most likely keep going for another 5 plus years

>>721931196
And yet ps still has more monthly users. It’s just the truth. If Nintendo’s monthly were that high they would flaunt it
>>
>>721931316
So the PS6 will be Dead in the water then? Sony really is finished
>>
>>721931316
Meaning the PS6 will sell even less because its big selling point is ray tracing, path tracing, and AI nonsense.
>>
>>721931350
Nintendo doesn’t need to flaunt it because they already sell more consoles and games while sony has to combine pS4, portal, ps5, micro transactions, and refurbished units to cover the “ps5 generation”

>>721931521
They would though if they could, their numbers are just not that good. Consoles sold doesn’t necessarily equal out to more engagement and real people playing them.

And truth be told, the ps5 is more or less a fairly optional upgrade over the ps4, they just utilized both systems to push their income to new heights.

No it will die too just way slower. Soon everyone will have a chink handheld or a smartphone they can play Roblox on

So, it'll never outsell the PS4 then?
>>

or it means consoles just live longer and the ps6 will pick up sales in the middile of its life, like how the ps3 outsold the 360
>>
>>721912374
What resources? Valve doesn't even manufacture their hardware themselves unlike Sony and Microsoft. They're paying out the ass for someone else to make a product for them, can't even afford take a cut to put it on retail shelves, and then sell it at a loss for the duration. Nothing will magically change. It will be steam deck 2.0 until Valve changes their entire operation.
>>
>>721931608
So then what’s your excuse for the ps5 still outselling it?
>>
>>721931728
> their numbers are just not that good. Consoles sold doesn’t necessarily equal out to more engagement and real people playing them.
It does when you have attach rate and famitsu numbers to back it up. Meanwhile Sony’s numbers are in the toilet and they’re putting games on PC AND switch

>>721931812
Unless PS5 goes down to 200-300 euro like PS4 with free bundled games it's never gonna happen

>>721931728
>Wait until you see what equivalent PCs will cost by then though
Doesn't matter, PlayStation, Xbox, and high-end PCs are doomed because of increasing high prices. The future is Switch 2 and Steam Deck 2 since Nintendo and Valve don't go crazy on hardware.
>>
>>721931736
That’s how Nintendo, PlayStation and all the rest do it.
>>
>>721931812
It’s not outselling it. It’s down vs ps4 sales by this time in its life and it still has like 50m units to go just to match it
>>
>>721931932
That’s not at all how Nintendo does it

We’ll just have to see. The ps5 is currently right on pace with the ps4 and that’s even before gta 6 release. Oh yeah and Xbox has even less of a presence than when GTA v released.
>>721931904
Sony is going to have a handheld and it’s going to be better than the deck 2 and switch 2. The ps5 is already a better console than both will ever be, even before the handheld releases. Normies are going to eat that up

Sony handheld is going to be at least $600 and will have to compete with the deck AND Xbox’s handheld, and it’s already more expensive that switch or switch 2, it also has to somehow play PS5 games, which means it will probably be at least $700.

They're shifting to OEMs. The ROG Xbox Ally is to test handhelds, next year's PC living room box is to test consoles. 2027 first party home console will be sold only on the Microsoft Store in North America and the United Kingdoms and will serve as a reference to the next gen OEMs using the same Magnus APU in the next gen Xbox. The OEMs are what will be sold in retailers. Xbox is dead.

>>721894486
Microsoft isn't going anywhere. PC gaming is still king. Xbox might become something else like a certification for third party hardware and Windows gaming and Xbox gaming will merge.

Sony stands the least chance of surviving in the long term. They don't know how to innovate and their consoles haven't changed in any significant way other than processing power since the PS2.

Microsoft could actually do the best in the long run, especially if they buy Valve and merge Steam with Xbox to make one universal gaming platform for all devices. Nintendo couldn't compete with that just making their own hardware.

The thing is, PlayStation has exclusives that are probably never ever coming to pc. Gran Turismo 7, Demons Souls Remake, Astro Bot, Bloodborne too. They have some highly sought after games. On top of getting timed ones like the entire FF remake and 16 lineup, Death Stranding 2, Yotei, Wolverine, Spiderman, etc.

And PlayStation is far more popular than Xbox in general. Xbox didn’t even come out with a fully haptic controller to compete

The entire franchise sold 100 million, MK8D alone sold 75-78 million and it's still selling on just 2 consoles, like it could keep selling on Switch 2 for all we know which is the hilarious thing. Sony doesn't have a single franchise that comes close to that.

>they all report them the same way, shipped or whatever, the numbers they report are relatively the exact same.
They don’t though, you’re just coping and saying they’re the same
>>
>>721934640
I mean if somebody wants to play spider man 2 years early you gotta get a ps5. Even if they port it later, the sales impact was had and they got effective use out of it being an exclusive.

You do realize, Mario kart world was bundled with nearly every switch 2 right? And it’s dead right now.
Sony didn’t need one game to do that well either. Their players are already spoiled with countless third party and 120fps in multiplayer support.
>>
>>721934676
They do though. The ps5 has hit 80m the same way the switch has hit 153m and the Xbox hit 30m ish.
>>
>>721934953
The switch sold because it has games. The PS5 sold because of cultists that buy anything with the PS logo on it and mouth breather thirties who need every yearly installment of fifa

It's pure speculation because building a fat library takes time. Even when Nintendo sold less the audience didn't necessarily go away forever, they waited or simply bought the handhelds. This whole crap that exclusives don't matter is just an Xbox shill talking point and it's the most retarded shit ever. Playstation won't even have the third party edge anymore so it's even dumber

I just wanted Sony to officially update the game to at least run at 60 FPS. They won't even do it on PS5. I don't give a fuck anymore because someone else did it.

The Switch outsold the Wii U less than a year after launch, while it had much fewer games.

>>721935241
Why do you say both "tendies" and "snoys"?
Whose side are you on?
I thought you were a PlayStation fan.
>>
>>721935194
Tendies have to wait on games because Nintendo won’t put any other games on the system than the ones they pulled out of their asses. PlayStation gets timed exclusives and exclusives on top of every major third party game in existence. Pc and switch are the waiting game playing devices

Switch had everything people wanted, the Switch 2 will have everything people want. I can see Nintendo doing what they did with Switch and bring back some dormant series for the Switch 2. Switch 2 allows you to play it anyway you want just like the original. It's only a gimmick if you choose to treat it like one unlike the Wii/DS era of Nintendo.

>The switch 2 is 2 generations behind in terms of power
Nobody ever separated console generations based on vague notions of how powerful they were until the Switch began to coexist with notably beefier systems in the past ~5 years. This is as arbitrary as it is recent, a bit like how "no games" was always universally understood to refer to exclusives until it became too difficult to argue against for two of the big three in about the same timeframe. There's no reason why one should hold this stance and not also make the point that the Wii wasn't 7th gen, or that any given handheld wasn't also part of its respective generation by extension.

I definitely think that's true. PSP and DS had basically nothing to do with Wii or PS3. Handheld generations never lined up well chronologically with console generations either.

why? the gpu investment is less than a PS5, which is what you were arguing.

No that’s not what I was arguing. Generally these days, cards alone are more than consoles, even before the rest of the build is factored in

>>
>>721938567
Correct I have had all PSN, Xbox online, and NSO for periods of time during the 8th and 9th gens and I've never been hacked or unable to play any game.
>>
Going to kill that PS handheld rumor, it'll be able to play PS4 games natively, it'll only be able to some PS5 games natively because it's impossible to get native PS5 games to play on it at such low wattages. Only some low-powered games should be playable on it, PS6 games are hugely debatable, I'm guessing PS6 games are 30FPS but the moment the PS6 is playing those at 30, handheld is done. Don't know why Sony is releasing that. Makes no sense. I also don't know how the Xbox handheld using Magnus is going to go against the Steam Deck 2 using Magnus when it's going to cost significantly more than the Deck 2. Sony and Microsoft seem to also be doing things to further help Nintendo and Valve putting things on Switch 2 and Steam Deck from a software standpoint and RDNA 5/UDNA for the next Steam Deck hardware. This smells like complete third party movement from both.

A 5060 8gb isnt even as good as a PS5. PS5 has 12.5gb of vram available. And it also has GDDR6 memory. 8gb cards are pretty much worth nothing.
