i know conventional gamer wisdom says otherwise but i think this just goes to show how more horsepower just leads to diminishing returns at this point. people call the switch underpowered but it's best selling game is a wii u port! gone are the days of each generation looking infinitely better than the last

GeneralEmergency,

This was already established with the PSP vs 3DS.

yggstyle,

This was already established with the gameboy vs… everything else.

Ancient hardware. Complete market dominance.

I love my switch, but speaking of replacements I’ve gone through too many replacement joycons.

the switch was one of my absolute favorites until the steam deck came along. i loved being able to play on my tv normally but then easily pick it up, toss it in my suitcase, and take it on a trip with me.

Kit,

I’m in the same boat. Steam Deck has been a game changer for me and I’m finally working through my library. It’s great to be able to play on the couch with my SO instead of setting aside dedicated game time on the PC.

The hardware was crap from launch.

Switch should have been replaced with Tears of the Kingdom as a dual launch title for the successor and switch

As much as I dislike Nintendo, the Switch is an excellent console despite its hardware. It’s no surprise that it’s been as popular as it has been for so long. These days though, there are a lot of competitors in the handheld space that have much better hardware, so it really maintains its position due to a combination of branding and the game exclusivity.

I’m curious what their next console will be. I probably won’t buy it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it was also a huge success.

thingsiplay,

The Switch really isn’t that good. It’s just the competition is so bad right now. Nintendo sells so good because they keep making good games and knows how to appeal to the mass market, not just to a specific core audience. I don’t like many things about the Switch and that includes its hardware, software and the shop. But I’m not the core audience of this system either, so fair enough I guess.

A reminder that Microsoft coined the term “Embrace, Extend, Extinguish” and they are going to continue doing this on purpose

So Xbox bought the studio about 3 years ago and then just went ‘nah, not profitable.’ Fuck Xbox.

I’ve been through a similar process (as an employee) and all I can keep thinking is “Fuck you.” after every sentence this guy says.

Hi-Fi Rush might genuinely be one of my favorite games of all time.

These guys did great, and I’ll be thinking twice about any Xbox product I consider purchasing in the future.

The shareholders aren’t making enough money until every worker’s dreams are crushed.

frog,

Not even then. I think the thing that’s easy to forget about shareholders is they’re not doing this because they’re evil and get off on watching people suffer. They’re doing it because their own personal inadequacies are so vast that the only way they can cope with life is by trying to fill that enormous emotional hole with money. As a result, even when every other person on the planet has been crushed and ground into paste, and just one person with this mindset finally owns everything… it still won’t be enough for them. They will still be left with that unfillable emotional hole. They will still be empty inside.

Just wait till next year for remastered X chronicles version with horse testicle physics and customizable skins.( $9.99) There’s a secretary outfit and a gangster with a Tommy gun and even a cheerleader one!

The battle pass auto expires if you miss 3 dailies in a row and every micro transaction directly donates 10 cents to the “build an Ai Cory Barlog” foundation.

Didn’t last of us part 2 come out seven months ago?

DarkThoughts,

What? It came out 4 years ago.

Kazumara,

The Last of Us Part I released last year in March. Part II isn’t out yet.
