How did Nintendo win the console wars?

what do kids these days even mean when they say something or someone "won" like what is this fixation on "winning"

They won it by moving away from consoles

parents indoctrinate their kids into sports where the only acceptable outcome is 'winning'. They pay thousands for their not even teenage kids to go to sports training camps, they spend thousands on sports equipment, they even bribe the coaches to give little junior more game time. They have sucked all the fun out of sports for the holy grail that is 'winning'.

because graphics have stagnated and theres been zero gameplay innovation that could not work on a switch 1. Nintendo then proceeded to release banger after banger with at least 2 big games every year with the exception of 2018 and maybe 2020, but id still disagree with that. Switch 2 comes out and shows not only is it able to run games from the ps5 and xbox series with some compromises on a fucking tablet, as well as outperforming series S in many scenarios due to better tools for optimization despite the hardware being weaker on paper. Ocarina of time remake this fall and GTAVI launching day and date on the console (according to many insiders, im not sure i totally buy it, but i do know for a fact theyre working on a port it just might not be day and date). Even now Nintendo had several large switch 2 exclusives with DK and Mario Kart, with metroid prime 4 being an unfortunate disappointment for many. Now we have Starfox next month, Pokopia back in March, splatoon in July, fire emblem this year, and the ocarina of time remake. Having both FF7 remakes with part 3 being worked on for the system, resident evil 7-9, and soon to be GTAVi the console wars is over. The thing you need is compelling exclusives, which nintendo is continuing to use that strategy.

It honestly feels like the only people playing games are PC owners and Nintendo fans in their own little bubble. I don't think people that buy xboxs or playstations play games anymore, they just buy the systems out of habit and use them for video apps if at all.

Blackrock investments went up for nintendo. Blackrock investments went down for Sony and Microsoft. Suddenly more shilling for overpriced baby console. It ties into Blackrock trying to crash the rest of the US market. They're pulling out of the west and moving into the Asian market, because the Rothschilds (who fund these big shareholders as major backers) are themselves communistic legacy families of rich Jews. They have their hands in almost all levels of western culture and infrastructure. It's very simple, and easy to investigate, which is why they pay for thousands of third worlders and bots to start artificially boosted arguments on social media over their artificial economic wars between companies they have nearly equivalent hold on. The same reason they pay for journalists and youtubers. It's all a kayfabe. This is wrestling for rich jews. It's all speculative finance and backdoor dealing. Why else do you think AAA gaming is currently the most profitable industry in entertainment while simultaneously being the most suspiciously nepotistic and lazy (and increasingly so)?

Yeah, dumbass. It's an artifice of a culture war. Coke and Pepsi do the same shit. This is nothing new to people who actually study finance, and don't waste their time playing baby games. They do this in all levels, in all fields. It's all chess. It's fake. There is no console war, you fucking goy.

This board is genuinely full of Nintendo fanboys. It has no clout in real life except with 30 and 40somethings desperately trying to cling to their childhood when they felt safe. Even my gen alpha niece and nephew have no interest in sitting around and playing games on the Switch 2 and they're who all those baby games are made for. It's been crazy watching the games industry deteriorate over the last 10 years and even with that you still have fanboys that buy into the bullshit, get scammed then spend their late spring beautiful days defending the shit online. Amazing... simply Amazing.

They're better, they do the same shit, but have a semblance of game development and knowing when to pivot when they're fucking up. They know that indie, A, AA, optimization, and efficiency are the new hot shit and are pivoting towards that. Microsoft fucked the Xbox to know return because they have no creative back bone nor under them. How long has Microsoft been making consoles, since 2001 and they still don't understand this market. If the game industry is this hard for Microsoft's corporate asses they should just quit making hardware and go third-party fully and stop doing these half steps.

Blackrock isn't the only issue. The poison reaches across most if not the entire major sharedholders, and just about all of them with power are either backed by people like the Rothschilds or by Chinese communists, especially lately as in the last 30 years. There's an industry-wide push towards blackrock-like WEF psychosis. Look at even "private" studios where the drip-down nepos from these companies leave to make an "indie" game and it's just masonic commie stuff like Clair Obscur or Mixtape. Removing Blackrock doesn't remove the hubris. There are also consulting firms and thinktanks, etc and other private investors with their claws in the industry. Certain countries and areas practically by law mandate this hyper-egalitarian, unionized makework commie shit now, as well.

Because Xbox and Sony keep shooting themselves in the dick. Meanwhile, Nintendo has been making the same boring games with minor twists for 50 years.

One again, PC is the winner.

>>739512402
No, as we keep saying, it's just backdoor trading nonsense. There is no console war. Stop lying to yourself. All of those companies have dealings with each other and don't care about your fictional back and forth. They rely on that to perpetuate the whole industry, you absolute child.

They tell Nintendo to keep making games and their end of the deal is... copying Nintendo and failing, then hurting themselves with their own decisions?
>>
>>739504029
Microsoft owns all the studios in the world. No games.

Sony used to be the console with the most games of any system. Now no games.

Nintendo sucks shitty asshole in many ways but at least their business model isn't "sustain by taking 30% of microtransaction fees from live service games, and focus on making our own so we can keep 100% instead "

It's over man, investors are being forced to shove their cash in the tech sectors and drop ESG. In terms of countries outside of the USA and Japan, I don't care, when AAA falls their countries are the ones that will be hit the hardest by it. Their entire game development is controlled by the governments of their countries, it doesn't work that way out here in the US or in Japan who have actual creative freedom. Plus, indies, A, and AA try the wokeshit here now, we can kill the studio by not purchasing their products. This is why capitalism will always beat socialism, baby.

That's the last of their bad games coming, add Wolverine and Intergalactic to their shit list. These were games that have been in development for years while being too late to shitcan them. Their failures will give Sony's Japanese wing an excuse to gut the western wing which was a long time coming.

Do you still not understand that the AAA gaming industry is a money laundering front and that it's all for these investors? They don't care about the smaller guys who work on this stuff, that's why they turned it into an assembly line and why they're replacing half of the infrastructure with AI. You fool, look at the bigger picture. This is a fake culture built entirely for money laundering. This is not the real game-making scene at all.
>>
>>739504029
>How did Nintendo win the console wars?
its literally only about doing a big ecosystem of exclusive games
the console gives you access to 30-40 exclusive good/fun games
so people buy it for zelda, pokemon, mario, kirby etc

it also offers plenty of options for local multiplayer, parties, and has 2 controllers as default and not extra

What's even the plan for Sony and Microsoft? Just do the same thing again, but more powerful?What would the new consoles do that the PS5 and XSX can't?

OP is a nigger, but since we're console warring....
Both PS6 and Switch 2 are going to struggle vs the pervious console (no one is going to buy the New XBox lets be honest). On the Switch 2's side, we already saw this most recent holiday where it sold less than Switch 1 despite having more supply problems. Even Q4 2026 was weaker than Q1 2018 despite the system getting a bump with Pokopia This is Nintendo's fiscal years which is why it seems weird, and even now, Nintendo is probably gonna have to rely on Pokopia in the Holiday because they really don't have anything else, and no, an OOT Remake isn't going to do much just like it didn't do much for the 3DS either. Switch 1 sold 16.9M in its second year and that was with Smash Bros, Mario Party and Pokemon Lets Go. They're projecting 16.5M, so they a big titles, especially with the higher price tag. It will never beat the Switch 2 without another plandemic.
Sony is also in a tough spot. The PS5 got a huge boost in demand from COVID too which probably why its keeping parity with the PS4 despite having no worthwhile games. The problem PS6 has is it wont have the carrot on a stick that is GTA6. Not to mention its probably gonna be expensive. There will be plenty of people who stick with a PS5. There also hasn't been a major hit in a while. Genshin was 2020 and its been on the decline. Fortnite has been declining for a while. Destiny isn't as big as it was. COD has gone through a really rough patch. There aren't any of those games that would keep someone in the Playstation eco system other than more Ball games that will be on PS5 anyway. The only edge they may have is a hybrid console. Japan loves hybrids so they may get a little bit of sales growth from just being more appealing to the Japanese (would also have to make Nintendo get off their asses since Sony would be on their home turf again and will be more Competitive in Nintendo's best market). Shits fucked.

You think these corporate investors give a shit about Kirby and Mario. You're such a god damn child it's insane. They INVEST in these companies for billions, then make that back through liquidation after artificially inflating the worth of the company through backend deals and marketing, and convincing other rich people to invest with inflated spreadsheet data. It's fucking money laundering. That is ALL this will EVER be. NO ONE important gives a FUCK about MARIO unless it's the NAME if their GOD DAMN BANK. FUCK! You people are SO STUPID, man.
