The launch lineup for Nintendo’s new console has been revealed and frankly, it’s just one giant kick in the face. FOUR games at launch? Seriously?!
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

But if they put all their heavy hitters on one day killing each others sales then you would cry because "they released too much at once". No pleasing child bloggers. Nintendo was smart to move all their bigger titles out of the way of Zelda. Plus let's be real, there hasn't been a "good" launch line up for any system in a long time.
Will pick one up one day for sure just for the upcoming exclusives itll get. I do agree that the launch is weak but if Nintendo play their cards right then they could turn the tables similar to what they did with the 3ds....or end up like the wii u which I really hope wont happen.
A new Wave race and Pilotwings game would of been a great launch option, followed by a new F-Zero before Christmas.
I would have liked to see Skyrim or at least 1 3rd party game. There is only Zelda, the rest are not major games.
Agree. That's why I never buy a console at launch. What I don't get is why people are demanding from Nintendo what they don't from Sony or MS, they had very weak launches too!!!
Stop hating people. You will buy the console or not... But let Nintendo be Nintendo. You're asking the most original videogame company ever, "hey, be like the others"
