there is no latching on, thats just naturally what people who enjoy video games gravitate to if the options are available. I have a PC with a 3060 so I don't need a PS5 or Xbox. I like nintendo games so I have a switch 2.
Thats literally it.

Not really considering a console should sell the most in its 4th and 5th years and the least in its first and last years, but the 1st year Switch 2 beat beat the 5th year PS5 regardless.

>>736114507
Yes they are an argument. A console with almost nothing is going toe to toe with Nintendo's newest and very in demand console with plenty of supply, coming off of what is the 2nd best selling console of all time. Explain that. You said consoles in later years sell more but that's not always the case, and especially with how lowly you speak of PS5 and it's number of exclusives. The math isn't quite working out here.
>>
>>736114418
>No, it didn't
Yeah, it did. If Sony or Nintendo pulled their hardware from retail 20 years ago and operated entirely as a glorified console netflix run from a storefront on PC with no physical media presence and hardware that steuggled to hit 5 million it would he seen as an abject failure to the brand. Steam somehow gets a free pass because that's how they started and they couldn't possible go any lower.

NTA but the Switch 2 is getting carried solely by their big franchise exclusives. At launch they had Mario Kart World and now they have Pokopia, but without those big games they stumble. The PS5 relies way more on its third party library, Sony had the chance of making tons of games of their own but wasted it on cancelled live service projects.
>>
>>736114853
Did the Vita sell most in it's fifth year? Xbox Series? Steam Deck? It's not even a guarantee.

do you know what rhetorical question means?

it means to use a question to persuade or present an argument. i know you know the answers to what I was asking, so take it as

PS Vita, Xbox, and Steam deck didn't sell the best in their later years.

very simple concept.

and btw you do say otherwise, you say ps5 has no games

But it is close, and it is a success, so I referenced the approriate sales trends.

PC doesn't have that because if you achieve any amount of success in dedicated gaming hardware the next step up is to become a console and then support that console by making exclusive games for that console, and then you're no longer a PC at all.

If you own a game on steam and it's not currently downloaded, steam can just remove it from your library. This has only happened in a few instances throughout its entire history, and more often Valve only uses this practice when you used a stolen CD key / key purchased fraudulently, but they have the power to do so, and Valve's ownership will not always be the same

And Steam has family sharing. Which works across the entire country, and even abroad as long as you set it all up in one country in advance.
>>
>>736117693
And I can pirate it right back. Valve going full evil retard wouldn't mean anything for my library, it would mean the loss of Steam.
You know who threatens they can do that not just with their games, but their hardware? Nintendo. They can render what they want unusable at any time for any reason they choose.

>>736117982

How about selling a game when I'm done with it, does steam let me do that?

>>736118016
This, Valve lives and dies by offering a better service than the pirates. If they go full Uplay/Origin I'm going back to piracy.

>>
>>736118201
Yes faggot, the equivalent of sharing a netflix password but you choose which games are shared with the "family"
The issue is the more people you add to a group the more butting heads will happen whenever two people want to play a game at once, because you can't select a specific person that gets to play said game, which is the entire point of lending a game to someone
You also can't resell games you're done with and never going to touch again

So what you're saying is that possibly some time in the future things might be so bad for consoles that they become equally as terrible as PC publishers? That just means consoles are better than PC in this regard as it stands currently.

>>736118375
The control and freedom to do what you want to the game itself is the closest anyone gets to ownership over games they didn't make. You're duped by plastic, which is all you actually own, while the console imprisons the game.

The plastic is a physical copy of the license that cannot be stripped away from you without the entire store going under
>>
>>736118565
No, they're not
I can play even 20 year old games on newest hardware, mod them, play them on whatever pc I want
Consoles segment hardware and the games you "own" are subject to draconian DRM
Literally the only purpose of buying console games is to resell plastic
And the only time you'd do that is if you hated the game
>>
>>736118567
I buy them when I could pirate them.
>>736118641
It's literally all licenses. You're deluding yourself trying to think otherwise. If it wasn't, you would be able to legally make endless copies to sell of the games you buy
>>
>>736118676
>The control and freedom to do what you want to the game itself is the closest anyone gets to ownership over games they didn't make.
No. That's false. The closest to ownership is ownership.
>>
>>736118802
If you connect to the internet at all it can be stripped away from you if you do something the console owner doesn't like. Nintendo straight up tells you this.
>>
>>736118856
Yes, it's all licenses, but you own the license with physical media, just like you own the title (license) to a house you've purchased, or the title (license) to a car you own.
Steam, and all digital games for that natter, is the equivalent of how property works in China. You don't own the license, you own a lifetime lease that the owner of the license / product can revoke if they ever feel like it.
>>
>>736118804
>I can play even 20 year old games on newest hardware, mod them, play them on whatever pc I want
You're just describing a benefit of computers. This isn't specific to digital media, this didn't become a benefit when physical died for PC. PC always had this. This has nothing to do with Steam, and you could have all this and ownership if Steam didn't revoke your ownership rights. Does this make any sense to you or are you diaingenuous liar glazing a billion dollar corporation?
>>
>>736118865
>Ownership is specifically what Nintendo lets me do and nothing that Nintendo doesn't let me do
>>
>>736118865
So modify the console or the games you own. Then tell Nintendo, I'm sure they'll congratulate you on your achievement.

>>736118981
Incorrect. Nintendo does not to the best of anyone's knowledge have the ability to fry a key card or cartridge. They can ban a console, and they can ban an account, but the cartridge will still work, and as long as servers are up so will the key card
>>
>>736118981
Not to mention Nintendo is known for leaving games behind to rot for everyone, regardless of wrongdoing. I seriously do not understand how anyone can continue to delude themselves and support consoles.

How do you think Nintendo authenticates the key? You think they can't take that away? And they've banned modified carts.
>>
>>736119163
>And that was the point?
Hmmmm no. That was your goalpost move since you were unable to defend Valve revoking your ownership rights.
>>
>>736119305
They ban consoles they detect using modified carts.
There is no example of a key card having its license revoked, not even one. Even with banned consoles that key card still works on a different console
>>
>>736119242
Yeah, because they would immediately assert their ownership over what you bought and you know it.

>I can't do it so it doesn't count

You have to talk slow and talk loud with PC vegans. They are the most tech illiterate group on /v/.

That doesn't mean they can't. They explicitly say they can and when they have full control over the system and authentication factors it's foolish to believe they can't.

You're unable to defend Nintendo having the right to brick your console and revoking your ownership rights
Pc is objectively a better platform to play games on

Look, I'm gonna be real for a sec, until Nintendo starts pushing out not just 1 game but several of their first parties with the same or even worse quality of MP4 on top of the other stuff I previously mentioned, they are in no way even close to shooting themselves.
At this point the real way to shoot themselves is raising the price of the Switch 2 in this fucked economy.

Gonna have to disagree with the "godly hardware" part. Not even talking about performance, it's extremely restrictive and this shows in the games. Like is there a single switch 2 game that has proper, functioning online without P2p? Online would be far more preferable with basics like dedicated servers, custom servers, maybe a map editor for games like Mario Kart or Splatoon. There's no mods, no romhacks, you can't even put your own games on the console. It's a very restrictive, closed garden.

Literally all it has going for it is exclusives, which sadly suffer from the console limitations. Again it has nothing to do with performance, but the architecture which limits the games.

You are the kind of nigger that sees a book and calls it leftist cause it has too many words and pictures could have gotten the point across.
Holy shit you genuinely don't even know what a leftist is.
You just saw a meme about unfunny leftist memes and thought anything with too many words is leftist.

Makes sense. Nintendo is in the business of creating media while Valve is in the business of managing media storefronts. They're not a good pairing. Maybe if Valve made video games they could collab.

Well, I say it's more of an unspoken alliance to put it this way, it stems simply from natural instincts of any sane gamer, buy a console that offers exclusives and a pc for multiplatform titles

I hope theyre also dropping the practice of charging for DLC. I'm so used to PC games just dropping the DLC for free, that the idea of paying 30 bucks for a season pass ontop of a 60-70 dollar game just feels wrong.

Dropping DLC for free was the norm on PC before Microjeet started charging every dev for updates/DLC on their store to the point they forced Valve to make L4D DLC paid only on their shit system.

And every Xnigger was fine with paying the goy tax.
The absolute state of cucksole gaming can be attributed to Microsoft raping it raw with monetizing absolutely everything, pushing and financing AAA trash companies and Sony following their steed in sheer desperation.

Isn't that also true of Ps5 and xbox? Last I recall, playstation fans would gloat over Demons Souls, Bloodborne, Astro Bot, and many other exclusives.
