Nintendo won because the competition is hell bent on committing suicide

Exclusives are literally the only reason to buy consoles, and Nintendo is the only one who still has exclusives.
Without exclusives, a console is just a less useful budget gaming PC.

Xbros we're still in it...

Get a PC. Being a consoleKEK in 2025. is embarassing.

>>725220871 (OP)
That's genuinely retarded. Of course a tranny-loving faggot like him has never worked retail so doesn't know how space is alloted in aisles.

>>725220871 (OP)
they won because they correctly identified the problems with the graphics obsessed performance rat race more than two decades ago

the fact so many retards are still in denial and think that ps5's lack of exclusives or sony's gaas obsession were simple temporary mistakes and not inevitable consequences of an unsustainable model kind of baffles me but then again vidya fans were never particularly bright

Xbox and PS are glorified PCs at this point. They don't even get exclusives anymore. Just get a steam deck instead.

>>725221180
I never needed an expensive desktop PC when consoles play the same games.

>>725223368
I’ll continue to play with chuds on ps5 multiplayer instead of women and trannies on pc

>>725220871 (OP)
Does anybody even buy physical copies of games anymore?

>>725224086
It's more a problem of CEOs looking for infinite growth with finite resources. As well as so many studios falling for their own gaslighting that their audience is 50% women.

>>725221180
>Exclusives were literally the only reason to buy PCs
Fixed

>>725223368
How's that Windows 11 working out for ya?

>>725223368
steamies don't play video games
they gamble

>>725224236
yea with the indie advent and the AA scene shitting the bed the PC necessity for gaming has dwindled quite a bit. Couple that with skyrocketing prices and you can make a case that multiple consoles is better than 1 PC if we're weighing gaming solely.

>>725220871 (OP)
Grok, what percentage of video game sales are digital vs physical in the current year?

>>725220871 (OP)
>groomerfist

>>725223368
the fact you can't even have threads on your own tells a different story. Embarassing.

>>725225541
The robot says 95% but it's considering ALL revenue including DLC and MTX. When I asked it to narrow it down to full game purchases, it still spat out around 80%. If this is true then the PS6 won't even have a disc drive.

>10.36 million units sold in 4 months
>before the holidays
>before new Kirby, Metroid, Zelda spinoff and Pokemon games
>before any new 3D Mario and mainline Zelda games were even announced

Based. All consolefags are corpo shills.

>>725223368
>Not having both
This board is filled with third worlders, gross. I don't dislike you because of your poeverty, it's you culture that disgusts me.

>>725223368
Being a PC vegan in 2025 is just pure cope at this point.

This is the era of Nintendo and Valve now. Sony's and Microsoft's time is up.

>>725224086
Alot of small Japanese developers could have saved themselves in seventh Gen if they had stuck with the wii instead of going full retard into the HD era without grasping just how expensive the games would become. For instance, cave would have faired far better releasing their games for the wii rather than the 360.

>>725224086
Snoys are as retarded as Xbots, it's expected. Sony were retards to fall for Microsoft's trap and used the Cell for the PS3, it was their undoing for everything going forward.

>>725223368
>can play Xbox and PS games
>can emulate Nintendo games
>free online
Yup.

>>725226510
They should have killed Xbox and PlayStation, it would have led to smaller western studios surviving and moving back to PC and less AAA teams being made, a shame.

>>725226625
>will never emulate switch 2 exclusives
>AAA industry is dogshit and about to implode
>steam releases are mostly shovelware and malware these days
>most popular PC games by far are all gambling "games"
It's over little guy

>>725224236
Not even true. PC has whole genres that are exclusive to it. Lots of them are some of the most popular games.
Ironically most of them can be played on a toaster.

>>725224086
Its the Body Dysmorphia of vidya

>>725226625
Thankfully consoles already play every PC game

>>725223368
Tendies seething.

>>725226839
You just agreed with me

Target will be dead before Xbox, what a clown.

>>725226761
The japanese, as devastated as it is from rising Dev costs, at least still have some semblance of a game industry. Smtv was alright, so are most Nintendo releases, and some other developers like vanilla ware hung on and are still making good shit. Even Sega never truly died.

The west's game industry was crashed with no survivors. The last time a western game actually impressed me as a quality product was fallout new Vegas/dead space 2. That was what 15 years ago now

>>725220871 (OP)
>Nintendo has two aisles
Yeah, and they're all chock full of Switch 2's that nobody is buying lol

BU-BU-BUT LE NINTENDO FATIGUE!!!!1

>>725224851
If you switched from console just to use Windows then you're a fucking retard. You're retarded if you use Windows in general actually.

>>725227342
The good news about here in the west is it rebuilding itself through indies. Even better is that it's happening at a time when PlayStation and Xbox are dying.

>>725223368
I have both a gaymen pc and a Switch 2.

>>725227824
>through indies
Basically the only notable stuff in recent memory have been ultrakill and silksong.
And even then the latter is considered the BG3 of indies, an extremely ambitious project that sets absurd expectations.
Everything else is vampire survivors clones, deckbuilder roguelite slop, RUST/ARK clones, and friendslop as far as the eye can see.

>>725223368
dude but according to the dog rapist in OP - PC games already lost since they got no stuff in target :/

PC gamer here. I love my Series X for its OG+360 backwards compatibility.

>>725229368
It'll get better over time

>All console companies kill themselves by becoming hyperjews.
>Nintendo wins by being slightly less hyperjew than the competition.
>Now nobody is left to stop Nintendo from becoming the dominant hyperjew
gaming is dead, slaughtered by end stage capitalism

It's more than that, physical games have become increasingly useless and discs on PS5 and Xbox force you to install the game to your hard drive, often with a day 1 update, so there's no point in buying physical except for on Nintendo where you can still play from the game card.

>>725220871 (OP)
i can't wait to buy key cards of ports for $80! When Nintendo turns off the server to authenticate my games, I have nothing!

I don't get it. I see random non-game merch and peripherals and re-released games from 10 years ago.

>>725224086
Okay but there are limits to that. There is a difference between stylization, not being obsessed with realism, but still exploring graphical improvements; and holding visual innovation and improved performance hostage because you know you have brand control and can take advantage of your consumer base who will eat up anything (as game freak proved)

This Best Buy has 3 aisles for Nintendo, 1 for Sony and like a small stand for Xbox. The video was posted today.

I watched a recent video wherein this dude was trying to tell me that the unregulated wild west was better at community building and capitalism because of small government oversight, but he conveniently failed to point out how niggers would up and take all your material at the point of a gun and with litter in the way of recourse other than vowing to undertake a personal revenge vendetta against those responsible.

video games.
