There is a huge buzz about Nintendo Switch Virtual Reality - we might just achieve our childhood dreams of actually living the game!
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse

I don't know why everyone wants the Switch to be a VR machine, when it still has to cement itself a place of profit as a console for traditional home console gamers first.
I mean, look at the games. Anyone with a brain can tell the majority of the library is going to be home console games, for home console loving gamers, with travel as its hybrid hook.
Why would they do anything related to VR with it before it's got a solid market foundation to fund any VR efforts?
Going straight into VR would just be spreading Nintendo's game development resources thinner, which would not benefit the system's chances of remaining drought-free.
It's got lower specs than the base ps4 and rightfully so as it targets portability so vr on this would be pretty weak
The NS doesn't need VR. Plus VR is an unproven platform for gaming. Its good for experiences, not good for gaming.
