>>717566862
It wasnt. Despite exponentially more retarded faggots in the pool, Sonys audience has been declining ever since the PS2. They sell at a loss, and the PS5 has an even lower attach rate than the PS4. Its dire for Sony. Somy and MS have always obfuscated how shitty they're actually doing by selling consoles at a loss. Xbox has basically never been profitable ever. Same story with post PS2 sony.

They sold a lot of consoles, thats true, because people just buy for sport sims like FIFA.

No, nobody wins when everything goes live service or babby/idiot centric. From a buisness perspective it is a good move (microshit already beat them to it), Nintendo on the other hand seems focused on raking in money atm, not making stellar, memorable games (or hardware by that logic).

so you're talking out of your ass. yes nintendo games have turned out baby easy but they are still devoted to memorable unique gameplay focused experiences. You can't praise Xbox Game Studios, Sony Interactive, or Valve anywhere nearly as much, as third parties have become their best sellers.

Only tendies would think $80 games is a victory for them. Only tendies would think that less competition allowing their friends to start charging even more for their baby tier 5 hour games would be a good thing.

Sold a lot of consoles yes but not a lot of games. Ps4 list 51 games that have sold over 1 million. Ps5 has listed 14 games that have sold over 1 million and that's over 5 years of console life.

Pyrrhic victory though.
The end result of Nintendo winning the 'war' will be Sony and MS going fully cross-platform, bringing everything to PC - the entire market shifting to PCs, and Nintendo being left with underpowered console hardware that will be a total mismatch for porting compared to the PC powerhouse.

Essentially, you'd need to get a Nintendo console for the few interesting Nintendo first-party titles and that's it.
Its systems would be relegated to serving as second-choice systems, indefinitely.

>>717574481
>serving as second-choice systems
who gives a fuck? switch as a "second choice system" ended up being the best selling system of all time with an absurd attach rate

this is why internet opinions about nintendo will always be retarded, people make up these arbitrary standards and then claim that nintendo is in trouble because they don't fit them when the reality shows the complete opposite

>>717566456 (OP)
>it’s nothing
Wow

>>717573136
Tomb Raider isn't first party, it was even (briefly) on the Saturn before it was on the PS1
imo it would've been a better shout to list Gran Turismo before the rest since it's their only first party IP which has consistently sold about on par with the biggest third parties each generation

>>717574705
You're right, Sony IS nothing.

>>717569942
No- the one who wins the console war will likely be Valve.
Word through the grapevine is they're developing their own Steam console, sort of similar to the old Steam-box idea except not outsourced. This time it's done inhouse and well-standardized.

Which means you get an easy, comfy, living-room ready experience for PC gaming that will be highly plug-and-play as a real game-console thanks to a well-standardized hardware and software environment.

And you get all the Sony and MS games on that system, combined, together with everything else in the PC ecosystem. With game prices and seasonal deals that will make people finally realize the lasting 70-80 USD price point on Nintendo's first-party titles is insane.

>>717574672
You don't know what a "Pyrrhic victory" means - do you?

Let me spell it out for you: Nintendo will have 'won' the console war, by being the last of the brands left standing with physical presence - but will also still be relegated to forever being 'second best.' So they've won, at the cost of never actually coming out on top anymore.

>>717566456 (OP)
PC won bigly

>>717569510
They took it down and put this one up

Post the whole quote next time for full context. He said that regarding the recent investment in Bandai Namco.

>Sadahiko Hayakawa: "Thank you very much for the question. So the investment in Bandai, and of course, we have been shifting to creation. So for example, the entertainment 3 businesses basically account for 60% of our consolidated revenue. So basically, our business portfolio is shifting more to the creation. And then as for the Electronics business and TV, compared to output devices, we are now shifting to creation devices that include digital camera. So as a result, we are seeing more stability in profitability and in revenue, and also the productivity of our performance is increasing. And against such backdrop, and for example, in the Music business, Music Streaming and EMI Music Publishing has been acquired, and then we increased the music catalog.
>And as I mentioned in the speech, in gaming business and moving away from a hardware-centric business to more to the community- based engagement business, and then that has been increasing. So now as we make more transition to entertainment creation, the stability and the productivity, our performance is increasing. So this upward revision might not have been a direct result of these. However, the Music Publishing and also acquisition of a music catalog and also the acquisition of Crunchyroll, these are the areas where we are seeing growth. And as a portfolio, we have been expanding our businesses and also improving our profitability.

Context helps braindead fanboys.

Thats a bit Wrong. Tons of people get all their indie games on switch along with every couch coop game because its just way easier to play games locally on a switch then a fucking pc and people like to have all their genre specific titles on PC. Its so funny everyone ignores how fucking dominate nintendo is at local gaming. No company comes fucking close, and yes its a massive segment of the market. Their are birthdays, family get togethers, holidays etc where people get together and play games and nintendo is by far the most logical choice.

Winning at the cost of the victory becoming hollow, is exactly what a 'pyrrhic victory' means.

>>717577637
>Winning at the cost of the victory becoming hollow
No, that's your interpretation. An actual pyrrhic victory is one that is gained with a very (or "too") high cost. And while that CAN make the victory "hollow", it's not a necessity.
And your definition of a "hollow victory" with regards to Nintendo is also pretty debatable.

Oh we don't need those guys and their nerdy games, it doesn't matter they will buy our shit anyway they don't have a choice.
Oh nonononno turns out casuals only play Roblox, Fortnite, Fifa and Minecraft.

>>717566862
/v/ likes to clown on PS being the nogaems machine, but it did become actually become a legit problem this time. It doesn't matter how many Playstations you sell if the grand majority of your buyers just use it to get FIFA and fuck-all else. Hardware sales make the console making studio some money, but the real bank comes in the form of software sales and shit like online subscriptions. This is why you see Microsoft not giving much of a shit about Xbox these days and instead are trying to get gaymepass on everything, because if you can get shitloads of people from all 3 platforms subbed to a service like that you've basically attained an infinite money printing machine and you don't have to spend shit on hardware dev costs anymore.

I bought a series x and a ps5 on launch as did my brother and both of us do the same thing
ps5 for the 1-2 exclusives a year(console, they are on PC), and Xbox for everything else. Gamepass is too good of a deal plus all my 360 and og Xbox games still work.

I plan to finally go pc next gen.

Sony wants to cut costs; they sell consoles at a loss, and manufacturing is not inexpensive. Consider what happened to Intel; they are going bankrupt because they continued to manufacture, and they still did so in Western territory, which is unfeasible unless you are a massive juggernaut like TSMC, Samsung, or country-backed companies.

>>717566862

Most PS5 sales are fake. Remember scalper bots? Remember the vans being stuffed with PS5s in Japan? None of those PS5s are active. The real install base of PS5s is 50 million. max.

>>717584767
Anon, early zoomers love the PS5. They also love PCs, but the PS5 is still a big deal. Look at how gameplays post PS5 in all caps because people still care about the brand name.

Daily reminder that Playstation is American SLOP. Playstation is a US SUBSIDIARY of Sony. Its as American as Xbox. Nintendo is the only Japanese console maker left.

That has been the case for decades, no one buys a Nintendo console for third parties, but for their first party exclusives, with the Switch being the best example of them all.

>Its systems would be relegated to serving as second-choice systems, indefinitely.
If they keep profiting from their console and software sales, I highly doubt Nintendo would care at all about being the second option to PC. PC + Switch has been the optimal gaming setup for years, especially after Sony began porting its "exclusives" to PC.

>>717585004
>Nintendo is the only Japanese console maker left.

>>717566862
I feel like people don't realize how badly consoles are doing because they compare sales numbers from 20 years ago.
Like yah, the switch was 7 million away from PS2 sales, but the amount of gamers today is multiple times higher than the amount in 2003.
PC and Mobile have become such big markets, that you're screwing yourself by not attempting to sell to them.

>>717577585
>one of the main attractives of the Switch is that the Joy-Cons work as two separate controllers so two people can play from the get-go
>Switch has games like 1 2 Switch, Clubhouse Games and of course Mario Party as popular party games
>but surely the portable PC brick with no detachable controllers that needs you to jump through hoops to do what the Switch can inherently do is a better option

Steamkeks surely are an unique breed.

>>717566862
Every Snoy sequel has sold less than its previous counterpart. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the decision to EXCLUSIVELY release sequels in this gen, compared to their previous tactic of mostly making new IPs every gen and rarely making cross-gen sequels. Yes, they (mostly) still made money, but the shareholders are obviously not happy about it, which is why they are pulling this shit now.

The PlayStation brand has been dead since 2020, the second Horizon hit PC there was no saving it. Snoys have to stop pretending otherwise.

>>717573975
I'll always praise them for refusing to bend the knee unlike the other two has-beens. But hell will freeze over before I pay more than 59.99 for a video game release.

>>717566456 (OP)

They can make a ps6 if they want. I will just play their games on xbox/pc now lol.

It's so crazy having grown up in the PS1/PS2 eras and seeing Sony become what they've become. The warning signs were there about a decade ago now but still, it's like looking at modern Ubisoft when you grew up playing shit like Rayman 1 and 2...on the PS1. Like, fuck man.

Can't say I didn't see this one coming. Sony's userbase has been in constant decline since the PS2. And their rate of game sales has tanked even further. Probably due to the fact that there are no games to sell.

They're both fucked, society is changing and so is the entertainment landscape.

It makes sense, what is the point of a console now when there are now exclusives? Once valve releases the new Steam Machine other consoles will be totally obsolete. All games are on PC now, except Nintendo which you can emulate on PC.

The Absolute State of Cope

>yfw you didn't buy a PS5

>>717595186
how?

>>717569694
Retard.

They made some good hardware in their time. "DO THE OPPOSITE IT DOES BOTH"

wait, i thought there were rumors of not just a PS6 but another portable system? are they axing the portable system?

>>717597351

>Nintendo kills sega, MS and sony
>Pc ponies adjudge the win like if they are not next on the list

Tic toc Gabe smegma suckers

Based

>>717597758
Nah, if even MS is still planning to release a console when they are on an unrecoverable spot and nobody is buying Series that means Sony will be here for a while, it is just that they know there is going to be nothing but decline for hardware sales in the future for them, that cope about MAU was how it started with MS and then telling investors about expanding their portfolio to other platforms.

>>717597351

>>717576050
>he doesn't know
Snoy already kneeled to basetendo

>>717566862
PS5 is a COD, Fortnite, and GTA6 machine

>>717597983
I just want gravity rush, they can shove all their other slop up their asses

>>717597884
sony killed sega
MS and sony killed themselves
Nintendo did nothing and won

>>717569942
It's not so much Nintendo won as Xbox committed suicide and Sony watched them do this and decided they'd do the same thing.
Like that old line, it's not showing who's right, it's showing who's left.

>>717598779
That's a lot of spin your trying to put on this. Snoy and MS werent profitable. Nintendo is.

>>717598779
>thinking snoy copied xbox like if it wasn't a slow painful dead by blood loss since the ps3

Sony wojaks are such a funny bunch

>>717598779
A win by default is still a win

The exact moment Sony died

The second Sony killed Japan Studio was when I vowed never to buy another Sony made product ever again, and I've yet to regret that decision.

>>717599297
Even after all these years this gif keeps being relevant is impressive

>>717569510

>>717599297
Peach ought to say PC these days.

>>717594357
Eh, I'd give it around the time Naughty Dog shat out Uncharted if we're gonna pin it down to any one thing. The headquarters move to California defintely shifted things into high gear but sure, some of those early PS3 games were a sign.

>>717599756
It's a natural byproduct of Nintendo STILL being the only company of those four that actually wants to make video games
>Playstation is the only thing really keeping Sony afloat right now (Sony the whole company) (Their hardware isn't doing well, Samsung ate them alive)
>Xbox had to have its numbers fluffed or hidden for its entire life and the whole plan to buy its way into console dominance didn't work; their best shot was the Xbox One, which they fumbled so hard it launched the PS4 to success
>Western AAA publishers almost entirely pump out Hollywood trash as a form of embarrassment at being associated with video games, are owned by Microsoft or Sony like Naughty Dog is, or both
>Nintendo did the smart thing and made a pretty by-the-books upgrade of their intensely successful Switch, even though it's also leading to another wave of "arrogant Nintendo" like the immediately intervening Wii to Wii U years

>>717597351

i wonder how Sony is going to deal with the ID laws popping up in the UK and EU.
with how many times they get hacked, I'd be worried giving them my ID

>>717597351
Can't lie to you anon, I feel nothing. Shit stank from the start, it felt obvious.

>>717600254
I bought one and it's been a paperweight. Strangers of Paradise got ported to PC, Astro's Playroom was a fun tech-demo but it made me a bit legit upset that it's pretty much a graveyard for Playstation, then its full game sequel with the false glory of claiming a bunch of Capcom IPs and stupid shit like Gex as "Playstation." On top of knowing it's what became of Sony Studios Japan. The Dualsense is worse than the Dualshock 4. I laughed out loud like a fucking donkey when they announced the Dualsense Edge, and again when they announced the PS5 Pro.

>>717574224
>>717575003
What they took down

Too many think nintendo won the console war, when in reality is that nintendo lost the least in what is heading towards the largest economic depression in history.

This isn't a sega losing to nintendo situation, this is nintendo and valve scraping by a second industry crash.

>>717569510
Pauline>any snoyslop

>>717574919
So in other words Nintendo survived and remained the last company standing but are left in a perpetual state of ineptitude unable to produce anything

>>717600778
these coping attempts are getting sadder by the minute

>>717600793
If things get really bad, valve probably outlasts nintendo. I think gaming as a hobby or industry will downsize a lot. To something resembling the 80s again where only a few hobbyists really engage with it.

War with China over Taiwan and ration lines are coming, bro. Nobody will spend money on entertainment

STOP THE COUNT

>>717600960
>using actual economic data is cope
I know nintendies are children but jesus. If you don't see war on the horizon you are a genuine fucking idiot.

Sega won.

>>717601089
two more weeks sister!!

>>717601089

Why did sony stop making (non movie) games?
PS3 was kinda rough at start but they managed to somehow salvage it, the second Americans got in charge with PS4 they never recovered.

>>717599967
Why?

>>717601404
non movie games stopped being interesting for their core audience

this is what happens when you build your entire identity on being the next step in videogames and scoffing at those who came before you (actual videogame makers)

>>717577851
I didn't forget about him
he's in my basement, bent over a couch

>>717567942
Ummm...aren't you forgetting someone you slut.

>>717566862
The success of the PS division over the last decade has been built on Fortnite, Roblox, GTA5, CoD, sports slop, Genshin and Minecraft so it's no wonder Sony is considering bailing from the console race before things start to go downhill.

>>717572235
The PS5 trailing behind the PS4 should be very worrisome for snoys since the Xbox has been even weaker competition compared to the 8th gen.

>>717583998
The truth is that ever since Sony moved to America they have been infected by the libtard disease, now the disease have taken it's host while Nintendo continued in Japan and stayed as a safe conservative company.

>>717566862
Typical dishonest tendies taking quotes out of context and making up their own elaborate fiction, to obscure the fact Switch 2 hasn't sold a million 3rd party games combined
He's talking Sony as a whole making more money from entertainment than consumer electronics.
So less cameras and more Kpop Demon Hunters

>>717605287
Is that the cope we're going with? I'll tell the rest of ours sisters to update the script

Phil was right.

>Natethehate said more Sony games are coming to Xbox
>Kepler said PS6 is going to be way less powerful than the nextbox
>now this
Ponies, you ok?

>>717574672
>reality
The enemy of many internet faggots

>>717574768
>Word through the grapevine is they're developing their own Steam console

>>717575014
Once again snoys show their reading comprehension is zero.

>>717576218
>Go look at the top games on ps, they're all ms owned
thats because snoys haven't played games since the ps2, their starvation led them to buy ms trash, for the only reason those are games and not movies.

>>717601606
PC lost before even sony did

>>717600793
In a nutshell, yes.

>>717569510
I'm a Nintendo fan
I do not want them to have a monopoly
Anyone celebrating a monopoly is an idiot

>>717607726

>>717566862
It is but soulless businessmen are in charge now. It doesn’t matter how well the PS5 is doing, it could be doing 2x as well as it is now and these fucks would still make this same decision. This will just lead to PlayStation further stagnating like Xbox is. You have to be a grade A retard to see your competitor fumble horrendously and then say “let’s do exactly what they’re doing!” but here we are. If these faggots had any brain they’d follow in Nintendo’s footsteps. As a console enthusiast it’s fucking depressing that the only platform that truly cares about the console experience at this point is Nintendo. Fuck pc gaming and all the horrible shit it’s done to this industry and fuck pcniggers

>>717609574
>If these faggots had any brain they’d follow in Nintendo’s footsteps
but they can't

this isn't the kind of thing you can magically do, this is a result of decades long strategies that both companies have followed and because sony have made certain choices they're now stuck in this trajectory

this is why the whole astrobot shilling campaign from last year was so disingenuous too, obviously sony weren't going to start regularly releasing midrange gameplay focused titles because they don't have the human capital for that and their audience don't want games like these

>>717576960
The idea that pc users will buy a PS5 because the exclusives are timed is so nonsensical I find it humorous. I’m an Xboxfag (yes, really) and I bought a PS4 last gen for all the exclusives I couldn’t play. If you told me those same exclusives would all come to Xbox after a year or two, I would just fucking wait and never would have bought that PS4. Pc users would buy a PS5 if it had actual exclusives they couldn’t play like the Switch, that’s why every pcfag says Switch + pc is the “best combo”. Sony is cannibalising their sales already with the pc ports, sure if they shorten the time it would be worse but they’re already making their console completely irrelevant

>>717601089
>using actual economic data is cope
Where is the data?

Oh boy, all those goodies

>>717594108
>tendietroon reading and comprehension skills
he's clearly saying they value the engagement of the players with the content THEY make, not how many consoles they sell
he was saying that in reference to the picrel slide
kill yourself

no gta 6 for tendies and pcjeets, cope and sony literally won

>>717610202
>Zero pattern recognition

>>717566456 (OP)
All they had to do was making games, 3 year dev cycles, 4 year MAX and anything more than that is dev hell failure. Less than 100M budget, hire people exclusively based on skill.
It's really that easy.

>>717610085
Fucking thank you, someone who gets it. PlayStation died almost 5 years ago.

>>717610980
>tendietroon/pcjeet straight up lying
ok bro keep coping lmao

>>717591813
>since the 6th gen
*8th
lmfao the shitcube was a pile of shit

>>717610202
Look anon, being ride or die is fine and all but you know damn well if it had been Furukawa making this exact same announcement you wouldn't be making copes like this and instead you'd be shouting "NINTENDO IS GOING 3RD PARTY", and rightfully so, from every rooftop. You can keep coping if it makes you feel okay, I'll make sure to look back on this exchange while playing God of War or Gravity Rush on my Switch 2

>>717613496
>if
can we stop talking nonsense for a second?
>you'd be shouting
cool it with antisemitism chud
and no retard, I don't care, I don't even own nintendo products (meanwhile all the pajeets are coping and seething because no gta6 at launch, it's different)
>while playing God of War or Gravity Rush on my Switch 2
two more weeks, enjoy the games btw

>>717613840
Lel, you lost snoy, keep coping though

>>717613840
>meanwhile all the pajeets are coping and seething
snoyjeets are indeed coping and seething, like (You), very undignified behavior, very sad!
