Sony is like an abusive ex who keeps saying what you want to hear just to try and get back together with you, then goes on another bipolar episode the moment you grant a second (third, fourth, fifth) chance. The analogy can also be extended to include how they always want your credit card and then proceed to fucking “lose” it.

I wonder if Sony will ever realize they can spend the change between their couch cushions on porting beloved older Sony games and make huge profits.
>>
>>737497780
No because they know what people really want and they still move consoles due to exclusivity. They didnt port any of the legacy stuff like Bloodborne or Gran Turismo
>>
>>737497939
There was a PC port of The Last of Us Part 2. Even looking at their PC sales, it's obvious they don't know what people really want. Instead of making a big swing and praying people buy it, it makes more business sense to have a regular supply of much cheaper sure-things and build up a positive reputation as a publisher that puts out a lot of good games.
>>
>>737498158
Thats the whole point. They ported stuff to make the money back on the movie games but they keep the legacy stuff locked to the consoles that attracts core gamers
>>
>>737496693
Just wait for their upcoming slew of singleplayer games to bomb before they come back to PC. Saros is not a system seller.
>>
>>737496693
I'll buy Death Stranding 2 if they decided to stop being stubborn. If not then no buy.
I have been specifically holding off from spending another cent on their games until they confirm to me that this was rumor mill stuff and they didn't just pack up their bags and revert back to their walled garden. If that's the attitude going forth then there is no reason to be a responsible paying customer any longer that is held account to not resorting to piracy.
But what of the Ghost of Yotei port?
I want to laugh in Greg Millers and Colin Moriartys stupid punchable sony fanboy scum faces.

Buying a PS4 from a yard sale to play Bloodborne doesn't mean 1 cent for Sony. Ratchet and Clank is a better example because there was a PC port of the newest one but absolutely nothing for all the PS2 and PS3 games.
>>
I own a ps5, there are no games.
Literally since launch I have purchased Demon's Souls and Astro Bot. Both of which weren't ground breaking by any means.
What's coming out this year from Sony? Yotei which is just Tsushima 2 so boring and Saros which is just Returnal 2, I played the first on PC, nothing crazy.

Next year is....? Intergalactic Niel Cuckman's Soulslike and maybe the new Onions of War?
Sony has gone so far downhill.

If you dont like their third person cinematic experience games then owning Playstation is pointless and retarded. Their first party studios outside of Polyphony release these type of games for last decade and nothing else and as you can see it looks like it wont change. You can say anything you want about Xbox quality wise but their first party lineup genre wise absolutely smokes Sony first party when it comes to genre diversity. Xbox covers all genres apart from fighters basically meanwhile Sonys first party studios have been shitting out Last of Us but [here insert IP] for over 10 years by now. Then theres Gran Turismo so basically an asset flip Polyphony been rehashing for 30 years and AstroBot and thats it. People dont remember how much PS4 was carried genre diversity wise by their third party deals but nowadays no one does these and game will always release on PC too even if its console exclusive. Sony cultivated this type of audience that plays these games and thats it. If they would try to diversify their first party lineup Snoys would just not buy their shit as evidenced by a fact that two least selling Sony first party exclusive titles of last decade are Ratchet Rift Apart and AstroBot so not third person cinematic experiences lmao.

Why? Schreier is an idiot that pretends to know what he's talking about all the time. He's not an amazing journalist in general.
Somebody who has worked at the company as long as Yoshida has at that company is infinitely more trust worthy than Schreier's guess work and shoddy gathering of second hand accounts passed down as first hand accounts style of reporting. He has been consistently unreliable throughout the years in reporting about inner company workings other than just beating everyone over the head with manufactured outrage over worker crunch and retarded irrelevant 'progressive' issues.

It's insane to not eventually release software on PC.
They will emulate it either way. You cannot keep a skilled PC user from playing your game for life. It simply isn't an option. By making this decision you are actively deciding to make less money by way of giving your business to pirates.

It's total lunacy to purposely leave money on the table like this. Financially retarded at best.

They went public to expand their company right now. Building new studios, making deals with tech and softwares devs, moving into other mediums like Hollywood is why they went public. But if they wanted to, they can buy back their shares at a cost in order to retain total control. Does Nintendo listen to their shareholders? Of course, but they're not beholden to them. If the shareholders want something that Nintendo doesn't, Nintendo's the ultimate decider.

>>737503431
It’s the opposite, retard. If Nintendo released their games on PC, I wouldn’t buy their consoles. Nintendo makes money on consoles. Every unit’s sold at a profit, and more importantly they get a cut of what everyone else is making on their platform. You make the big bucks by owning the platform, not by selling games. That’s why the PC golden boy Valve has infinite money despite never making games anymore. That’s also why Sony’s effort to spread to PC was doomed from the outset. The big players own the platform and games are the way they make the platform enticing.

The Switch 2 keeps selling. Sony and Microsoft lost, Nintendo and Valve won. Sony can't beat Nintendo, Microsoft can't beat Valve. Sony may have one last generation on their plate, the next generation is Microsoft's last generation and no amount of paid shilling is going to change that one.
>>
>>737505608
>That’s also why Sony’s effort to spread to PC was doomed from the outset
Incorrect! Snoys dont buy their own exclusives aside from Spiderman 2, so to say that exclusives make the platform enticing is just retarded. The vast majority of people on ps5 are playing multiplat sports games, call of duty, or fortnite. Exclusives have never been a big hit for Sony like they are for Nintendo.

You can see this here, most games are below 5m and below, and this is pathetic for some of these budgets. Ghosts of Yotei failed to even break 5m. Astrobot hailed by Snoys as the greatest game of all time didnt even get to 3m. FF16 and FF7 rebirth below 4m (which is why they broke off ps5 and went multiplat). no one is going to buy a ps5 for exclusives because in reality no one cares about them despite the lunatic snoys on the internet who swear up and down it'll be the opposite

Nintendo can't beat valve, they'll be slowly suffocated with their unsustainable anticonsumer protectionism strategy
>>
>>737505890
They don’t need to sell billions if they’re there to make the platform as a whole more appealing to disparate audiences. A perfect example of this was Nintendo moneyhatting Bayonetta. Bayonetta has never been a massive seller, most entries cap out around 1 million sales. But those 1 million people are customers who would have otherwise not purchased a WiiU or Switch, and when you get them into the ecosystem, now they’re going to feel inclined to buy more stuff. Studio JAPAN never made a mega-hit but I’m certainly never buying another Playstation now that they’re gone. You need foresight beyond just sales numbers as a successful platform holder.

Sony’s basically in the same position Microsoft was in the 360 generation, and they seem intent on making similarly retarded mistakes. I can see them ending up in similarly dire straits because they aren’t acting like Playstation is an ecosystem they need to cultivate for long term success anymore.

Nintendo will do its own thing as Valve will do theirs, neither compete with each other. Only the reactionary shitters, Sony and Microsoft, will suffer.

Better than nothing but

is HOW you recoup investment. You are pissing money away by waiting. Until you realize that not everyone wants your shitshow console and give them the chance to buy the game , they're not going to give you day 1 money 6, 12 etc.. months later. They're going to wait for even bigger sales, yu already had them wait after all. Plus youll be out of sales you could have gotten ON sale because you're waiting longer.

Just ship concurrently or soon after on Steam and realize that you're going to get the most sales from the most people that way be it immediately for those who will buy due to hype or at volume down the line for those who will wait for it to be a big discount 50%+ etc.

The Switch 2 isnt even getting AC Black Flag Resynced. Already being phased out of third party.

nintendo did nothing right with it and they have decades of experience with handhelds, it's sad really

The Switch 2 is a cost effective improvement on the previous hybrid that plays current gen games near seamlessly. It also has a solid line up of first and third party titles.

Its not even getting Black Flag Resynced, thats an early sign of things to come. Third party will maybe even pivot away early in its life
>>
>>737510254

it's using a 5 year old architecture, has a horrible screen and battery capacity and the joycons are as unergonomic as they come

Ps5 and xbox are getting it. And yes, you are a cultist because you will slurp up anything on nintendo store even if it is sub par performance just because its for nintendo
>>
>>737496693
Keep in mind that Yoshida retired from Playstation last year, so this is just his opinion and not some confirmation that the news is fake. Easily could have been a change that happened after he left. All we can do is wait and see.

Isn't Ueda's new mech game not first party? I don't think I care about any upcoming Sony games. It was over when they killed Japan Studio I have zero interest in anything California developers are making.

Lookin' like you guys might be going another decade with little to no third party. Must suck being a Tendie.

no, you're expected to decisively beat the deck if you're going to sell hardware that's worse than it at everything that isn't efficiency and raytracing and you're going to slap a console restriction on it

Not him, but enjoy paying for an $800-$900 PlayStation, and a $1500 Xbox while actual gamers just pay $450-$500 for a Switch 2, and $550 for the Steam Deck 2 when that comes in 2028, even a $700 Steam Machine is more worth a buy than whatever Sony or Microsoft shits out
>power is everything even if power has no games
You're retarded like Sony and Microsoft, the two companies whose ass you love to kiss.
>>
>>737511032
If you had bought a PS5 you could have just played both instead of Nintendo's lack of third party forcing you to buy two consoles.

PS6 Handheld is rumored heavily to be around 649 (by Kepler L2 and MLID), the home console could come in at 949 as well, but the handheld is already expected to be better than Switch 2. And who knows how much Steam machine and S2 will be by 2027. Pretty close id say
>>
>>737511239
>actually believes this
Even if it's true, will it come with games? Not cinematic experiences. Games.

>>737511121
Well then you'll just have to spend more for less.
>>
>>737511239
>he actually fell for this
>>
>>737511239
If it costs that much, then people will simply get the Switch 2 and Steam Deck 2, what reason is there to get a PS6 handheld or some third-party Xbox Helix handheld if neither has any games and the Switch 2 and Steam gets all the games they used to get? I'm not doing it anymore with PlayStation and Xbox, it's over.
>>
>>737511317
Ask the PS5. Still sold 92.2M units.

>snoy snoy snoy
I have no interest in consoles and never will
>what's anticonsumer about releasing an objectively shit piece of hardware, locking it down and forcing software exclusivity and then having the gall to charge AAA prices for games that should be $30

>>737510434
But it is getting TOTK port for $100
>>
>>737511353

If Nintendo can make a Series S ish handheld for 449, Sony can make one quite a bit better for 649.

Steam is not getting what PS will have.

What does PS have that I should give a shit about?

its got uh.... a microtransaction rug pull hiding inside a racing game... and... uh... it will eventually have the last of us with a disney skin!

>>737511643
You might not necessarily be the target audience. PS5 sold 92.2M without you, they aren't hurting for your sales.

>>
>>737511548
do you think you get to cast a hex on the thread that will prevent the majority of the board from entering it, you cultist console warrior?
I already told you what's anticonsumer about them, this thing is retardedly expensive at every level and it doesn't justify itself at any point
Nintendo games should be cheap because they're cheap to make and the console restrictions and vendor lock in should mean the switch 2 should've either been a better handheld or cheaper
You're paying more for less, a privilege to kiss Nintendo's ring
>>
>>737511792
>sony cultist just keeps going
reminder that nintendo is the one lowering the price of their games
>>
>>737511956
you think $60 for digital only on a locked down console is a good price for a game where the hardest part was designing levels?
>>
>>737511708
Their fanboys are annoying me
>>
>>737512019
>snoy hates astroflop now
>>
>>737497780
couch change is what they make porting these games to PC

they make their actual money from PS+ and having people tied into their ecosystem
>>
>>737512192
the snoy mario took more effort than what nintendo is doing with just upscaling the same assets and reusing existing property
it doesn't justify buying the ps5 just like nintendo isn't justifying the switch 2
>>
>>737512192
I'm in this thread and some Xbox thread and it's apparent that Snoys and Xbots really are the same, it's insane, lol. Both always defend the shit that Sony and Microsoft does, it's crazy.

Good because I will not buy a SAAROS machine no matter how good it is.

Returnal is the best AAA game released in the last five years.
>>
>>737505994
Yep tendies are the correct fanbase to market exclusives to. Family angle so children want it, plus the games are generally fun and timeless. Make that chart a ps5 exclusive chart on the right and you'll see it go as low as 1m
