This is pretty much it for traditional consoles. PC has basically won and its the console manufacturers figuring out what to do when Steam is the default platform
>Microsoft giving up
>Sony basically relying on a few third party titles until Mihoyo/Fortnite players migrate to PC
>Nintendo will have to rely on Japan as they lose their grip on the US market

PlayStation will continue being a prebuilt PC for poor people.
Switch will continue being a hybrid handheld console for children.
Xbox will cease to exist.

But the Switch 2 is a massive success out here in the US.

The Steam Deck 2 will exist for that

Nintendo won the console war several years ago because people either talk Nintendo games or non-nintendo games, which are all grouped together regardless of platform. Nintendo won several years ago and people are finally beginning to realize it

Nintendo was smart to build the Switch and Valve was smart to build the Steam Deck several years after. Those two new where console and PC gaming were headed and made a jump. Sony and Microsoft, on the other hand, didn't see it coming and the repercussions for that are coming.

Bot, ask Nvidia for more GPUs. You're talking nonsense.

Nintendo just started 10th Gen and Sony and Microsoft has nothing to show for the entirety of 9th gen.

Its true. There are Nintendo games and there are the other games. The term playstation game or Xbox game is meaningless and hasnt had any real meaning for over five years now. You don't have to like it. There are Nintendo games and non-nintendo games. Nothing else

PlayStation and Xbox exclusives no longer exist and thanks to the Steam Deck and SteamOS, PC is becoming more console-like than ever before. It's over for Sony and Microsoft in gaming.

Nintendo is the one always leading the pack. PS5 literally has 0 games and you have 1 more year of it, and once PS6 releases what games will you play in there? probably another TLOU remake or Horizon re-remake2 or something, shit is embarrassing.

Mark Cerny wanted PS4, PS5, PS6 and PS7 to be AMD APUs because it was cheapest and easiest for programmers. any optimizations done for PS4 will just help PC get further ahead. ps4 and ps5 are both x86-64

>He points to an amusing video by Linus Tech Tips, which attempted to 'kill' the PlayStation 5 by building a $500 gaming PC that outperformed the console.

>"They had to get a used motherboard," he says. "That was the only way that they could build a PlayStation 5 equivalent for a PlayStation 5 price. And if you're using used partsโ€ฆ well you can get a used PlayStation 5 for eBay for $300-something.

FX-8350 @2GHz, a HD 7850 and a 5000 RPM hard drive are roughly equivalent to a PS4.

Ryzen 7 3700X and an RX5700 which are roughly equivalent to a PS5. Sony has the Tempest audio engine and the Kraken compression blocks. PS5 SSD read speed 5,558MB.

>TLDR
ps2 emotion engine and ps3 cell are japanese soul

ps4 and ps5 are basically AMD X86/AMD64 PCs

switch and switch 2 are basically NVIDIA tablets

steamdeck and rog ally x are basically AMD X86/AMD64 PCs

It ended in 2009. No one cares anymore, everything is a multiplat, they're all equally underpowered (yes even the tablet).

Never. Manchildren will always latch onto corporations for validation and fight their boogeymen.

That shit is going to cost $1000+, how the hell will the PS6 be for poor people? People are just going to have to a Steam Deck 2 if they want those next gen PlayStation and Xbox games.

>hybrid handheld
anon it's neither of those. in order to be an actual hybrid it has to use a much bigger GPU when docked instead of acting like a laptop charger with an HDMI output
and it's barely even a handheld considering you need a backpack to take it with you

The word you're looking for is "portable", and the switch is plenty more portable than any other option right now besides chinese emulation machines.
