How is Nintendo thriving while Playstation and Xbox are down in the shitter?
>>747424192they make games that are funa difficult concept for other companies it seems
>>747424192What did Xbox do wrong?
I used to be a nintendo+PC cultist and this is the first generation I'm going just PC. Nintendo a shit.
Theres a reason most multiplatform go on ps5/xbox over the switch, their fans mostly only play Nintendo games and thats it
>>747424497*Nintendo is shit
>>747424192This template is annoying
>>747424352flippy bippy
>>747424587>revenue
>>747424192They make gamesBtw this is not a good thinngs. They need competition
>>747424694It's growing on me.
>>747424471They don't make games.
>>747424192I like being a Ninteno fan, Xbox and Sony are trash
>>747424749>>747424781Yes that shows who is more popular as people want to spend more on them. What metric you want to use? Twitter likes?
>>747424192>Console
>>747424192Describe thriving because the other 2 make more money selling games.
>>747424471A lot of reasonable decisions lately, undone by collaborating with La Creatividad.Honestly all the consoles are shooting themselves in the head, just with varying calibers of gun. I'd say Xbox is using 9mm, Nintendo is using .45 ACP, and Sony is using WW2 naval artillery.
>>747424587Yeah because switch players usually just have a PC and are either kids or adults. Everyone else uses their consoles and their only piece of hardware. How people can play decade old console with 1080p 30fps when PC's can do much better confuses me. I guess they are just broke.
>>74742447115 hours
>>747424192>nintendo>consolesbut they dont make consoles anymore?nintendo makes handhelds.
>>747425125Revenue is both expenses AND profits. What you want is ONLY profits.
>>747425887And they're winning, your point?
>>747425651>PC's can do much betterAll at the low price of $5000 lol, PC games barely look different any nowadays and costs more than ever
>>747424587There's zero chance those numbers are accurate.
>>747426221no, they're in a completely separate market.someone can own a switch for mobile play and xbox for home play.nintendo gave up on the console market when the WiiU flopped as hard as it did.
>>747425651>tendies trying to tie themselves to PC yet againget lost, rat.
i'm confused by this. isn't Sony more profitable than ever
>>747424632Hey, I know you.
>>747424192Nintendo is also shooting themselves, the difference is that their cultist fanbase is TANKING the fucking bullets for themI mean, just look at this fucking shit and tell me that it isn't pure mental illness. It took them a while, but they've finally unlocked the disney adult perk
>>747425697>/v/ suddenly supports cloud gaming
>>747425316After Sony is done shitting the bed, the finale of console dick waggling will be Windows vs Valve, with total user autonomy, prebuilt PCs for "consoles". PC master race, brothers, we've won.
>>747426585They are. Nintendo fans think Nintendo not spending money on game and service development is a good thing so they always crow about profits
>>747426516>it's literally impossible for a tendie to own a PC
>>747426848These same tech companies don't want us owning our own PCs, though. It's part of why they've been buying up all of the RAM
>>747427072correct, you're too braindead from playing toddler games all day to understand how to use one.
>>747427072You'd have to be retarded to own a switch 2, whether or not you also own a PC. It doesn't even have any games yet
>>747424192what did microshit do now?
>>747427072You have to understand snoys are constantly fighting to an imaginary person that only owns a Nintendo Switch and somehow browses /v/ too. Since they're teenagers who can only afford one platform, everyone else must be too.
>>747427072YesNintendo fans are cable of owning a PC, but tendies would slit your throat for even daring to emulate mother 3
>>747427303>You have to understand snoys are constantly fighting to an imaginary person This is hands down the most ironic post of the weekBy the way, I'm Eric, come at me bro.
>>747427191Anything
>>747426585all their profit comes from microtransactions and PSN. theyre closing studios, released at least 3 concord disasters and burning money trying to keep marathon alive
>>747426753what am I even looking at?
>>747427442The post seems to be a factual description of reality. I can only conclude you must be a pussy.
>>747427802mental illness
>>747426390Are they? They get the same third party games as the other consoles.Final Fantasy Revelation, RE Veronica, KH4, Witcher 3 Remasteres, Mobster Hunter Wilds.These games will never hit phones.
>>747424192by not being retarded and deeply antagonizing their user base whilst lighting money on fire
>>747428421The games don't get bought on there. Onimusha just flopped on Switch 2
>>747428569proof?
>>747428421>people buy consoles for the third party games!and 99 other lies to comfort the tendie.
>>747428569It did better than it did on Xbox which you claim is a home console sooo
>>747427802shiny hunting probably
>>747427092You think PCs are the only ones affected? Console prices are going absurd prices too
>>747429017Less absurd than PC
>>747426848>Windows still being relevant when they haven't released a good version in over 20 years and they can barely maintain their spaghetti code piled on top of 90s NT>Valve doing any work whatsoever to develop anything themselves when there are people who will do the work for free or cheaperThe last man standing will be Linux.>>747427092Anyone who built a computer in the last 10 years has a computer that will keep functioning for longer than the market can remain irrational unless they bought utter garbage,
>>747428604Famitsu
>>747429097Not for long. Most people will get priced out of consoles too with how these companies no longer want to sell the consoles as a loss leader
>>747427191>Game pass downgrades>Closing studios>Xbox series x raised its pricing >Changing lefties for jeets, further helping into enshittificationJust because snoy shot themselves in the foot doesn't mean that Xbox is doing good
>>747428805>No responsekek
>>747429234according to famitsu its in the top 3 best selling games this week
>>747429151>linuxthe only reason why linux isnt a complete meme is because valve is putting in the effort to make it compatible with shit.the second valve gives up on linux you guys are going back to>so if you want to play this game you need to download wine, bottle opener, cork, and bottle.>then you need to latch bottle onto the holder program so that cork doesnt crash bottle opener and finally you can boot the game with wine.>but first you'll need to download zipmaster and bootbuckle so that you can...
>>747424192All three are shooting themselves. The industry is collapsing because it's the only largely unregulated media type people actually consume.All three are dealing with the kinds of money that regular humans can no longer properly conceive of, or manage. So they hire people that say they can. These people are largely insane psychopaths, who proceed to do their brand of murder, that, time and again, escapes the consideration that these people being hired might not have the best interest of the people hiring them in mind. That people who make their billions by stripping the corpses of other businesses might actually do that to them. They hired them, after all, someone you hired has to have your best interest in mind, right?And so, the serial killers are given the keys to the old folk's home, and nature takes its course.
>>747429378>how these companies no longer want to sell the consoles as a loss leaderThey still do, thats why consoles cost less than steam machine despite having better specs
>>747424587Third party spending is up 76% YoY on NS2, massively outperforming NS1 or Wii/U. The problem is that third parties abandoned Nintendo platforms during the Iwata era so they'll have to groom that market again. It is getting better though, Onimusha on NS2 sold better than on Xbox. Nintendo ports frequently outsell PC ports also. Nintendo support isn't going anywhere and in fact it's improving due to the hardware extending what's possible on the console, the PS6 simply cannot be a substantial enough jump to leave Nintendo in the dust so it's not like the Switch 2 will be power-limited like what happened at the end of the NS1-era.
>>747429509Cope
>>747427802
>>747429908so true sis
Why is this thread CONSTANTLY being made?
>>747430094NTA but are you agreeing with them? You're posting figures for first party Nintendo releases. The decline in first party sales is a direct consequence of the explosion in 3rd party sales.
>>747430340buy the dipplease
>>747424192They're making games that don't cost hundreds of millions to make and thus doesn't have to sell 20 million copies to break even, or else layoff hundreds of employees
>>747430204Easy bait for consolewarfags
>>747430429layoff who? they already outsource everything
>>747424192They aren't triving. The fuck are you on? And is that the second time you posted that thread? Get a life loser.
>>747430553EPD? Retro Studios? Next Level Games?
>>747430429/threadThe oot remake will sell 30 million copies and it only required hiring one single man
>>747424587>24Gotta hude that Concord loss eh
>>747424192They still have the old company mentality of >How do we make products people want to buyinstead of the new company mentality of>How do we abuse good will and psychologically manipulate our customers.
>>747424192>another Kirby>shitty OOT demake >another metroid that will suckNintendo should be shooting themselves too and only Nintendo onions cucks that obsess over different color controllers would say otherwise
Nintendo is "thriving" when Mario is fucking dead, suuure
it's literally just americans that are crashing the industry
>>747426053??? What kind of retard are you. That's not true at all.
>>747424471Xbox hasn't had any relevance since mid xbox360. I believe they barely have a tenth of the sales of playstation
>>747424192The real answer is that Xbox and PS5 are subsidiaries off bigger companies who view them a nothing more then business ventures. When profit starts to look questionable then private equity is going to start forcing them to do weird things to squeeze as much money out of them for as little investment as possible.To Mr Goldstein who owns a large stake in Sony but knows nothing about video games, a name like Hideo Kojima is just some random Asian guy who likes to spend company dime on fancy dinner parties with top name celebrities because it's "required" for "game development". Why pay money for a hack who has yet to put out a resounding success like Fortnite or Roblox? We're cashing out now, so cut him off before he orders another $500 steak with Kim Kardashian or something retarded like that. Nintendo on the other hand - gaming is all they have. Even their biggest IP is only a joint ownership with Game Freak. It's sink or swim. They don't have Sonys mass good manufacturing or Microsofts operating system dominance to fall back on. It's sell Mario, or sell nothing.
>>7474245872024 was one of Nintendo's weakest years ever, do a comparison for 2025
>>747424192>down in the shitter>PS5 Pro sold out everywhere>GTA6 already sold 40million copies on PS5 aloneBuddy, you don't think anyone actually cares for Kirby, Yoshi, Air Riders, Donkey Kong, and Fire Emblem, do you?Nintendo systems sell because of Mario Kart, Super Smash, Mario, Zelda, and more recently, Splatoon. The rest is just nice shovelware for people to put on a recommended exclusives list to pretend they aren't filthy casuals like the rest.Yes, that is 5 more exclusive franchises that Nintendo has whereas PS and Xbox have 0, but at long as they can claim multiplat slop for themselves, Nintendo can't touch them and they can sell a hundred million units easily.You should talk to your colleagues sometimes about video games and ask them whether they'd prefer to play Mario or their favorite sports' game.
>>747424192Tendies are delusional.>>747424471They've done nothing wrong. They've done nothing in general.
>>747424471Name one relevant thing Xbox has done in the last decade.
