Money. They can "remaster" games from the PS5 and get people to pay $70 for the PS6 version.
It's just to get consumers to buy all of their games a second time.

If GTA6 is delayed one more time, it'll be a PS6 launch title instead of a PS5 game.

I just don't like PC gaming anymore, sorry.
I mainly use it for work and making cool renders on Blender and Unreal.
I grew tired of developers not bothering with optimization and just assuming that everyone will just need to buy the 7090 in order to get stable 40fps.
So fuck that noise, they put a ton of effort on optimizing for those shitboxes from Sony, MS, and Nintendo and the product is just better there.
So back to console gaming for me.
And no more bloatware occupying space on my SSD so I can make more renders

Even the fucking Wii U had more going for it before the Switch got announced, and that was objectively a monumental failure compared to these current consoles that only subsist on monthly subscriptions and microtransactions.

Most of the money on consoles is Fortnite, Call of Duty and sports games. The reason Sony is making a new console is they're basically the default. Even still, PC is bigger than consoles and has been for several years

Outside of the COVID years, Switch usually sold like 15-17 million. Its sales are more than and it was on the market longer than any other console. The DS sold 140+ million in 6 years, something that took closer to 8 years for Switch.

And lose the opportunity to double dip? No, they will release it for PS5 next year, maybe during the holidays instead of late spring, and then a "Next gen" version for PS6 alongside the PC port as a launch title or maybe a year after that.
>>
>>724346848
When were bananza or prime 4 on switch 1?
>>
>>724346821
Exclusives are no longer relevant. What matters now is having people in your ecosystem paying for online access and buying mtx/dlc in their store. Microsoft understood it well in 2013, but fucked up by saying it out loud instead of silently implementing it.
But even then, the reason a new console launches every 7 to 8 years is because hardware needs increase.

If they can’t hit 4090 levels of performance then there isn’t any.

I’ve got a 4090 system and let me tell you - THAT is a solid step up from a PS5. You notice how fluid and high res everything is. It can actually do max settings 4k raytraced on most games, and that’s what they need to be targeting with this new gen. If they can’t hit that goal, don’t bother till you can

Nintendo yeah, Sony no.
Literally the only reason why people bought Playstation in the past is because it had third party games, now when Nintendo has it I think they'll plummet. PS5 might end up outselling PS4 though if NS2 doesn't completely kill it

>>
>>724348950
Yeah that's nice but your GPU pulls more power than a Series X and PS5 at max load combined to get that experience not to mention the CPU and other components. I'm not a fan of dumping 700W of waste heat into my room to get smooth FPS in video games.

Third party game don't sell on Nintendo's platforms. A shit ton of games don't get released on it and the ones that do are ports that are several years old. Hell you aren't even going to get Elden Ring this year and that was released on PlayStation in 2022.

The only reason I got a PS5 is because I wanted some games that could perfectly run in a PS4 but they aren't releasing them on it, like the Castlevania DS collection

They desperately want to but their bloated games can't run on Switch 1/Wii U. Less bloated ones often sell better on Switch than PC, particularly if it's Japanese focused.

>>724344327
The leaked Insomniac documents already stated that Sony wants the Playstation brand to be more like smart phones. They see how people are more than willing to spend thousands of dollars for a new iphone every 1-2 years, even if there's barely anything to gain from trading up, and want that to happen with consoles. Expect PS7 by 2031, then PS8 by 2035, with every subsequent console coming in earlier and earlier.
>>
>>724367275
>>
>>724368183
This also means they want the PS6 to be expensive. Yeah, PlayStation and Xbox are dead if this is their new strategy.
>>
>>724368663
This was already debunked as Sony lumping together all Playstation-related revenue like they always do. 2020-2023's numbers include PS4, PS+, and PC, and mobile sales together with PS5, not to mention there's been multiple MSRP increases across the board (and Covid-era free gibs from the government) making individual units more expensive compared to PS4. It's the most profitable "generation" so long as you don't look at the flagship console.
>>
>>724346945
I did a fart and i sniffed it
>>
>>724369471
To be fair it’s probably counted like that for every generation. They always probably count what they’re making from their gaming systems/business sectors in total. The current ps5 generation has made more operating income than all gens before it combined

Sony and Microsoft are going to do what nVidia does; Sell your newest generation hardware at a $1000-$2000 price point, and sell your previous generation hardware at $500-$700.

No one cares what Portuguese people think, especially companies who always ignored them. The city of São Paulo alone is bigger than the entire Portugal population, reason why every time you see the language "Portuguese" in literally any game or media, is always going to be localized with Brazil in mind I also remember the time when companies didn't care about Brazil either and not a single game came with portuguese subs, much less portuguese dub like it happens all the time today

>>
>>724344327
people barely have money for games, yet alone another console that's 10% better at raytracing. just stop. support publishers so they can make games and stop fleecing gamers by forcing us to buy this trash for $700 because the one big game we get every 3 years is exclusive to it.
>>
>>724358106
that's switch 2 you fucking nigger. It just came out and filtered most third parties really fucking hard because of the keycard bullshit. Pull up ACTUAL fucking stats on Switch 1's epoch at least

its no worse than what GPU makers are doing every single year though
>>
>>724374434
GTA is on switch though in a kinda shitty way but yes 3 and SA are on it and VC digitally. Also I know for a fact Switch could run all the GTA games right now and pretty well too except for 6. Gaming today is just SO FUCKING BEUCRACTIC FUUUCK
>>
>>724375861
We only need to buy GPUs every 5-7 years, though. There's no games that are absolutely locked to a new GPU. These console people can release games for only the new console, so the one the players had the year before won't play it. Like, period. It's simply impossible. With a PC, worst case scenario, your 10 year old graphics card will be running that brand new game at low settings. So it's not really an issue for PC gamers. Don't get me wrong, they fuck us over in their own way. But this is a console-specific issue.

>>
>>724377156
That's exactly what it is, its backwards compatibility isn't even the real thing, it's just going to grab what's in the Microsoft PC Store and Steam and play the Windows version.
>>
>>724378795
For a modern PC though, they could come up with some abstraction layer for 360 games like they did with the Xbone already. As for getting Xbone games on PC, nfc. Series X shit is mostly available on PC already so that's a non-issue.
>>
>>724378872
They'll most likely use cloud for first party games not on PC, wouldn't even be surprised for Halo 3 and Reach, they'll just grab the MCC versions and call it the 360 versions. Microsoft plans to kill the XboxOS, the one on their REAL consoles, in 2027 when this piece of shit releases. Don't let anyone fool you, Xbox really is dead. Also, this 2027 console and it's APU are still in flux on whether Microsoft wants it to happen or doesn't. Wouldn't be surprised if we hear something maybe next year. If we hear nothing, I guess it's still a go but I can honestly see them canceling this and just going for OEMs if third parties even want to make Xboxes for them.
>>
>>724344327
I'm glad I skipped PS5. There's barely any ps5 games I care about, and ps6 will probably be backwards compatible. I'll play the ps5 games i missed out on with 120 fps or some shit.
>>
I won't grab a PS6 unless it's fully capable of playing my PS1 through PS4 discs, as well as my digital UMD/Vita library. There's no excuse that a system more powerful than a PS5 can't play or emulate all of that.
>>
>>724376631
funny how ps3 tanked revenue but i dont believe ps5 stats
>>
>>724379679
I don't know shit about technology, but everything I hear about backwards compatibility is that it's way more complicated than "technology get better, it must run everything!" hence why n64 was very hard to emulate, and PS3 apparently had such a weird architecture that it only plays ps3 games and only ps3 games can be played on it
>>
>>724379801
first 3 playstations got weird architecture it just they went full galaxy brain cpu core tier with 3
>>
>>724376361
yet
>>
>>724379801
If my Ryzen 5700X3D on a 1070 can emulate PS3 games as well as a PS3 could (oftentimes at a higher framerate/resolution), I would hope a PS6 with proper access to the PS3's design docs can do an equivalent.

Console hardware spending is only 20 billion. Meanwhile PC is well over 60 billion with just gaming prebuilts. Games need to be cheaper on pc, yet they still make more revenue on pc.

It's outselling everything else by 3:1. Nintendo is winning because it appeals to literally everyone, while Sony appeals exclusively to single men who are burnt out on society.
