Nintendo won.
>>749561621>series x>prob8 or retarded
>>749561621my 11 year old pc plays every game I want to play
PS5 Pro cost $1,500 now
>>749561621Based. Looks like I'm buyinga Switch 2
>>749561621burning 100 dollars is only 100 dollars, should i do that because it's cheaper you retard?
>>749561621nonononon I won
Only 2 can play GTA6
>>749561621PS5 base is 599.99 and Series S is 499.99. Commence the cope.
>old tech would get steep discounts later in life>now, the prices for consoles go up.
>>749561621>$80 for each gameI can see why it's "cheap".
>>749562710You voted for this, chud.
>>749561621This has been almost every generation for decades. That's Nintendo's whole thing. They use older technology to keep prices affordable, and as a result become incredibly popular. They tend to lose in the tail end of a console generation because their costs were already low and others race to the bottom. But they've been doing this for over 30 years now. It's nothing new.
>>749561621>Two consoles, a PC and a handheldWhat is this supposed to demonstrate?
>>749562789I'm not even registered to vote doe
>>749562702>heh, the PS5, a six year old console, is only a hundred dollars more than the brand spanking new Switch 2. That's right tendies, go ahead and seethe *shits self*
>>749562925It's because you're underage
>>749562925So? Most democrat voters aren't registered either.
>>749563036>brand new>runs worse than ps5>has worse third party support>doesn't have GTA 6>doesn't even come with a real controller like PS5 does, have to buy it for 99.99 on top of the consolesad
>>749563193you forgot to mention it has paid online like the other consoles but ps and xbox gives hundreds of games with their sub too No anon i wont count the ability to play nes and gameboy games equivalent to ps plus or gamepass games.
>>749561621Man I really want Valve’s hardware to be cool but I absolutely don’t understand the appeal of the Frame or their home console.Steam OS is a nice front end, but the process of getting emulators, mods, source ports, and all of the stuff that actually makes PC gaming better than consoles is technically possible to run but requires way more tinkering than a normie would ever have the patience to put up with.I’m really into vr and I also just don’t get why you’d even want steam deck level hardware inside it when the quest is basically an android phone and already has an established homebrew ecosystem with dozens of awesome 90s and 2000s pc ports for half the price. Maybe it could run something like the Max Payne 2 mod standalone, assuming it doesn’t break it two the second you introduce proton compatibility into the mix alongside the vr mod. Maybe it could even run Alyx or No Man’s Sky standalone for like 20 minutes before the battery gives out, but at that point just buy a more reasonably priced headset and connect it to a pc for an incompromised experience.

>>749563634>Man I really want Valve’s hardware to be cool but I absolutely don’t understand the appeal of the Frame or their home console.The appeal is that they were each supposed to be about 65% of their current prices.
>>749562647GTA VI will run on the Steam Machine though
>>749563193>Has Nintendo gamesThat's all it needs.
>>749562414Base versions of those consoles suck ass and you know it.
>>749562925yep you definitely voted for this
>>749564004most of nintendo's games this gen are flopping hard with no legs, so thats clearly not true
>>749564152name 1 game thats flopped
>749564152>muh salesngmi
>>749564017Even the base versions of those consoles are vastly more powerful than a switch 2.
>>749564214everything outside of mk world, almost zero legs
>>749563634>Steam OS is a nice front end, but the process of getting emulators, mods, source ports, and all of the stuff that actually makes PC gaming better than consoles is technically possible to run but requires way more tinkering than a normie would ever have the patience to put up withBasically the same effort as on windows
>stop complaining about Pay2play online and 80 dollar games, you brownoid poorfag! Things costing more is good>THE SWITCH 2 IS GOOD BECAUSE IT COSTS THE LEAST
>>749564363mk world isnt even the best selling switch game. post sources
>>749564214Air riders
>>749564562Emulators are easy, I’ll grant you that. Getting Mod Manager to play nice with Skyrim or New Vegas is way harder than on a PC, unless there’s been new developments since the last time I gave a shit there’s nothing like Wabbajack that’s compatible with Linux. GZDoom, fuggetaboutit, I finally gave up and installed the Bethesda consolecuck version of Doom 1+2
>>749563991on the 1200dollar pc thats less powerful than a ps5?
>>749561621How much was the steam machine originally gonna cost if AI hadn’t fucked with hardware prices?
>>749564947More powerful than a series s.
>>749564915sold 2 millies already
>>749564998Ah fuck i forgot series s, i want to see how it'll run on that little fucker
>>749565157slowed to a crawl
>>749565157And still no players
>>749565205and?
>>749561621which franchises would you like Nintendo to revive? we are obviously getting a new mainline Mario and a new mainline Zelda game so what's next after that? they will obviously have to go for their other IPs since releasing games from the same IP gets boring and attracts less console buyers1)Kid Icarus: is a no brainer, but the thing is that for it to work it has to be made by Sakurai himself again2)Golden Sun: the original concept of the game was that the main character could choose to become a hero or a villain while playing the game, this became impossible because of the gameboy limitations and we ended up getting two games instead, but it would be nice to restart the golden sun franchise this time fullfilling the idea of having a protagonist that can choose his own path of a hero or a villain3)Eternal Darkness: Nintendo needs to revisit the horror genre and this would make many people buy the console if it is a good game just for the novelty of playing a Nintendo horror game
>>749562773Is it? Where I live it's like 50 bucks. I paid 55 for Fire Emblem and 30 for Donkey Kong.
>>749565242nintendo online is more active than any other game on any other system
>>749565339Tendie bot needs a larger context window
>>749565293Obligatory F-Zero plea, but I say it with utter hopelessness.
>>749561621The others pay for themselves because games become cheaper. The nintendo bing wahoo device is more expensive over time as games for it will likely not see more than 20% off for 5 plus years meaning you will pay 60 to 80 per exclusive plus higher price on switch ports. Nice try though retard. Surely you baited someone with this.
>>749564334>home console is stronger than handheldone would hope
>>749565489nintendo doesnt use ai to fake their playerbase either
>>749565573You'll also be paying more for storage.
>>749561621Don't you get tired of being console warriors?
>>749565573chances are they will get even more expensive in the reseller market as it is common with Nintendo products
>>749565573Third-parties also exist on the bing bing wahoo machine and they do get discounted during Eshop sales on a similar fashion to Steam as well.
>>749561621>Nintendo wonb-but nintendeen said they were finished
>>749566207Stop giving this fat retard attention
>>749564214FE: Kangz edition
>>749561621Nintendo got so lucky going all in on smaller tech
>>749566123This is true, but switch is usually the worst place to get third party games. They perform worst on switch. They take up a lot of storage, which switch has very little of.If portable is an important feature then it's not too bad.
>>749566443>Smaller tech>Bigger than every previous Nintendo handheldWhat do goyim mean by this?
>>749566123Why would you get a third party game on switch when it's the worst version?
>>749566589You can't exactly fit the Switch 2 hardware into a DS sized handheld
>>749566683That makes it bigger tech.
Actually PC is always going to be the cheapest long-term.Even with the fucked up prices now.But yall knew that
>>749566589Smaller tech in scale relative to the their competitors
>barely more expensive than modern consoles for something that isn't a locked down piece of shitif only gabe would let me give him money
>>749561621I can't imagine how bad the prices are gonna be for PS6 and Project Helix. Switch 2 is probably gonna sell 100-150m lifetime thanks to price cuts and the Lite model. I can't see PS6 sell more than 30m if it's around $1400, Sony's gonna have to start porting their games to PC again and maybe even Nintendo to survive
>>749566768Still smaller than the competition
>>749566954>and the Lite model.Don't expect one any time soon.
>>749566517>>749566603>le "worst version"only if you're buying modern western AAA shit but for the average japanese game and indie, Switch version is virtually the same as on other platforms if not sometimes actually better
>>749561621My gaming PC outperforms all four, but runs SteamOS. I'd say Valve won. But I really don't care about consolefaggotry
>>749566826Not really. PC is hit even harder by price increases. The prices shown in OP are basically at cost parts prices with little to no retail markup while Sony Microsoft and Nintendo eat the cost for the consumer while PC component prices have regular MSRP margins.
>>749566985Yeah it might be like 2029-2030 but that gives NS2 life for several years after that, especially in poorer countries
>>749562925>doeRetarded zoomer.
>>749567056If you're in a thread about consoles and starts sucking gaben's dick you're just a stupid cultist yourself
Nintendo deserves to win. Sony and Microsoft both went full retard 10-15 years ago
>>749561621Conveniently ignoring that Nintendo games are by far the most expensive and will stay the most expensive. Breathe of the Wild is still almost fullpriced. also it doesn't come with a good controller like the other systems.
>>749567001Where's mod support for games like Rimworld and Factorio? Where's the feature to back up the game and ensure it remains playable on all future consoles forever? I got burned out by my copy of Shovel Knight not transferring between the WiiU, 3DS and Switch.
>>749567001If you were an actual idort you wouldn't be saying this with a straight face
>>749567207that's very millennial vernacular
>>749567063true but you forgot way cheaper software prices, free online, and an infinitely scalable system.When your console runs like shit you buy the next rendition and lose all your games in the process. If your pc starts to run like shit (usually after 10+ years) you just get a new CPU/GPU and can continue using the rest of it.
>>749567460Switch 2 completely replaced my desktop gaming PC though so yeah I can safely say that Switch versions of games certainly aren't the "worst versions".I was also able to actually finish Elden Ring on Switch 2 (with the SotE DLC too) whereas I never went beyond the capital city in the base game on PC.
>>749567832>I hate Elden Ring on PC >for some reason I bought the game I hate AGAIN>this time I finished it
>>749567931>for some reason I bought the game I hate AGAINWhere did I say I hated the game? Surely being able to finish a very long game on a more personally adequate platform has to do with it ?
>>749561621Isn't Switch 2 around GTX 1050Ti in terms of performance?
>>749568042If you didn't hate it, you'd finish it. Simple as.
>>749568042Why didn't you finish the game on PC first? why would you buy it AGAIN if it apparently was so bad that you didn't want to finish it the first time?Why even buy it on PC if it was so horrifically uncomfortable to you?
>>749563118Oh no, he believes retard cope that Republicans arent unpopular, democrats must cheat insteadRetard
>>749562925>>749563118>needs to register in order to be adequate to voteDo they really?
>>749561621Switch 2 has no games
>>749568239I bought the base game on Steam when it came out in 2022 but it was indeed the thing that made me first realize I couldn't handle long games anymore on a full stationary machine, while I could do RPG games just fine with the Switch since it's hybrid and possible to do quick sessions on it.I dunno why this comes across as far-stretched to you.
>>749567310>Conveniently ignoring that Nintendo games are by far the most expensive and will stay the most expensive.Who's going to tell him?
>>749568585Portability being an important feature for you doesn't mean that elden ring isn't 10 years behind on switch 2.
>>749568585Sounds like you could just get a deck or some other portable PC
It's not so much that nintend won. Everyone around them keeps doing stupid shit. Or fucked over by AI in steam box's case.
>>749567687I doubt it. You would have to pinch pennies the entire run of that hardware to break even.
>>749568758It's pretty much the same game on Switch 2 even graphically speaking so I dunno what you're going about.And I wouldn't say ER is your typical and average Japanese game anyway, most of them tend to be far more simplistic in visuals so the Switch versions are literally indistinguishable.
>>749562773>lying and coping>pretending everyone else isn't sellibg $70-80 gamesSnoygger post
>>749568585It took you until 2022 to realize that you couldn't play games on a stationary machine? And the idea of playing games in "quick sessions" is impossible to do on anything other than a handheld?
>>749561621Can somebody insert the Steam Deck price in the infographic too?
>>749564363Yet they all pulled profit in>no legsCoping btw.
>>749565242Keep saying it. Maybe one day it'll be true.
>>749569092Not a problem with indie games. Infact my favorite games often release for 0 dollars because profit isn't the main driving incentive.
>>749569108The only shame I see is that because he bought it on PC he'll never own it so even though he's done with the game he is out the full cost with no ability to recoup losses.
>>749567931>>749568232>>749568239Holy coping steamcucks.You fags are one of the WORST fan bases out there.Just as cultish assnoyggers yet utterly in denial to it
>>749569361Oh please do tell us of these totally heckin free games anon.Put some names out there.
>>749569471>no ability to recoup losses.If he actually enjoyed the game, then it's not a loss. He can play a game he likes. If he didn't like it, he could've pirated it and saved himself the trouble.Do you have mental problems? Serious question.
>>7495649152 million copies sold Crossflops sissie
>>749569565
>>749569595If he owned he could simply bypass all those gymnastics
>>749569839That doesn't make sense. Piracy is the height of ownership. Buying plastic isn't.
>>749569108I could still do it during the 2020 coof since I completed both DaS2 and DaS3 (with all the DLCs) on Steam that year for instance. ER was the warning two years later however. Though I guess it has to do with working and family stuff that made difficult to stick to PC with long games.Also did you miss on purpose the mention of "hybrid" ?
>>749569940Actually what you said doesn't make any sense.
>>749569987>also did you miss on purpose the mention of "hybrid" I missed the part where this somehow makes PC worse. Literally your only "benefit" is the game being portable. That's it. Every other aspect is a downside. You also miss out on the massive modding scene.
>>749570213>Every other aspect is a downside.Despite the games I mentioned pretty much play the same? This isn't the Playstation Vita where ports and multiplatforms were actually downgraded because the tech back then wasn't there yet (looking at you Gust games for instance) but you sure act like it is.And I don't really care about modding, I always played my games vanilla even back on PC.
>>749561621Who is paying op topost obvious flamewar war low quality bait threads here?
>>749570550>Despite the games I mentioned pretty much play the same? Not really? Outside of modding, you're also heavily restricted in how you enjoy the game, like with the choice of control schemes. Also, your options in terms of graphics are limited. PC lets you enable and disable things on the fly, far more than what consoles offer. And as I said before, you're at Nintendo's mercy as to whether it will work with future consoles. My 3DS and WiiU copies of Shovel Knight, for example,refuse to work on the Switch or Switch 2. My 2014 copy of Shovel knight on PC, however? Still works on any PC I put it on.
>>749561621>499$>No games>Not even GTA6Yeah so much winning

>>749570795Okey but it doesn't have GTA6
>>749570697You seem rather unhinged by how I largely prefer to play on a console than a PC these days, and you keep listing things that either I don't care or has zero bearing on the games I play.
>>749561621>$350 USD
>>749561621you pay $500 to pay premium on all their games. nintendo games rarely go on sale, and they don't discount much. steam, on the other hand, is the opposite. you pay a huge chunk for the console, but everything goes on sale and you can get decent games for extremely cheap. you're still being squeezed regardless.
>>749566954>thanks to price cutsSwitch 2 won't get an official price cut unless it will flop. It will still the cheapest "current" console.
>>749566517>They take up a lot of storagejp third parties aside from the westoid trio of SE/capcom/sega are almost always in cart anon
>>749561621Nintendo really won. And it'll be a bigger landslide when "Project Helix" and PS6 prices are announced. "Muh graphics" losers will be absolutely BTFO.
>>749567352i like how the goalposts already moved to tinkertranny support now that every single worthwhile indie is getting an expedited switch port, often with it ending up the definitive edition
>>749571086You keep saying that PC gaming is objectively worse, and when pressed, you list personal opinions and try to push them as facts, and when people explain why they like PC more, you discard them as useless.If using mods is a meme that nobody cares about, then I can say the same thing about muh portability.
>>749571568>definitive version because... you can play it on the toilet
>>749571626NTA but yeah I'd agree with that
>>749571384>westoid trio of SE/capcom/segalmao what retarded cope is this
>>749571572>You keep saying that PC gaming is objectively worse, and when pressed, you list personal opinions and try to push them as facts, and when people explain why they like PC more, you discard them as uselessYeha that's normal. Can you not handle criticism towards computers or something?
>>749571572PC gaming IS objectively worse. Just lying on your couch and turning on a console is objectively better. The only "advantage" of PC are "muh graphics", but only turbo faggotrons give two shits about that. For straight people, consoles are superior.
>>749571684>>749571728And somehow this doesn't apply to the steam deck?>>749571707>can you not handle criticismWhen you actually offer some, then I'm all ears.
>>749571053Enjoy your goyslop I guess?
>>749571728So PS5... is good?
>>749571765That's weird. I can handle criticms towards things I like. Maybe you should work in it.
>>749571468PS6 and Helix don't need to sell that many, good graphics consoles that came out 6 years ago have already sold nearly 140m units.
>>749571894Sure.
>>749572028Yeah just like that. Well done.
>>749571765the goydeck is irrelevant now because its weaker than a switch 1 while being more expensive than two switch 2sand thats before counting the fact its tinker tranny slop and not a real OS because lol troonix
And this is before the PS6 and Helix that are guaranteed to be at least $1000.
>>749572202>the goydeck is irrelevant now because its weaker than a switch 1 So it doesn't care about graphics.>being more expensive than a switch 2So it filters out poorfags.>it runs on linuxSo it filters windows babies.Omega based.
>>749572202The Switch 2 would mog the Deck even if they were the same price.

Shan't be buying any of them.
>>749572273Not quite there yet but you almost handled his criticisms.
>>749562710they're only that cheap because they're grey, the orange and indigo would never be that low
>>749572273>So it doesn't care about graphics.This is just admitting the switch 2 is the best current way to play vidya and the "muh worst versions" cope was indeed nothing but cope in the end.
>>749572405>his criticismsI didn't see any criticisms. Just console seething.I'll be patient and see if he actually posts something worthwhile, instead of inane babble.>>749572438All you care about is graphics. You literally embrace chains and non-ownership, over actually owning the PC version. A shame.
Switch 2 DLSS is clearer and sharper than PS5 and Xbawks Go Home
>>749572438The switch 2 gets late and diminished ports of other consoles games, it is among the worst ways to play games, if not the worst
>>749572356I'm not interested in those games
>>749571765>And somehow this doesn't apply to the steam deck?It does. Steamdeck is the definitive way to PC game since you can play on the toilet.
>>749572493except it runs at lower resolutions so it doesnt even look nearly as good with upscaling and runs at shit frame rates too
>>749572334>Next gen outside of ninteno is going to be a disaster.current gen right now outside nintendo is already a disastterat this point its going to escalate into a full blown westoid industry crash

>>749573648Don't forget about Silksong and AMR2
i own a steam machine (upgrade from old shitbox) a switch 2 (fiance loves zelda) and a seriex x i got for free from work, and i gotta say the steam machine is the most based since i just pirate whatever or get keys from gmg, too bad thing kinda sucked to buy. it seems liek my dream console and the controller is nice
>vegan is seething so hard he pulled out his phone
>>749573723No it in fact doesn't.
>>749573825Elaborate. If you have an excuse for buying digital games then the entire market of consumers does as well. You are no better.
>>749573715>baldy already pretending other people are snoysloleverything worth playing runs on a switch 1 btw
>>749573910Do you really need elaboration or are you just starved for attention?
>>749573715>admitting again that his PC is garbage This is why you get laughed at. You keep gloating about PC gaming but you can't even fucking play anything on your shitty PC except 3D pinball and minesweeper
>>749573723>>749573910>PC goyim already this pissy over the fact he sold his ownership rights to the yacht company like a goddamn moron.LOL
>>749573980What is so hard about elaborating? It's very simple. But it seems like you are falling into buying digital, just like the rest of the market. So you don't actually care absolutely about physical ownership.
>>749573980hes been having this exact same cope to bump limit all the way for at least a full year and half now anonhes THAT desperate for attention because its not like PCtards can spend their time actually playing vidya
>>749573989>>749573959i'm still waiting for those amazing recommendations. Isn't it strange that you always deflect and try to move onto another topic?
>>749573778>i own a steam machineI find this hard to believe.
