What Does Switch 2 Mean for PS6, Xbox?

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! Ryan and Max are back as they discuss what the Nintendo Switch 2 Pricing means for the eventual PlayStation 6 and next Xbox. Can any console going forward reach the same success as the original Switch? And for handheld gaming PC's and the Xbox handheld, can we expect those to cost $450+, just like the Switch 2? .

probably not much.

the new gen will have its big appeal for alot of people.

the big question will be if the dwitch 2 will be left behind by devs again due to the games being too demanding, again.

but, and ive said this before, nintendo will be fine without it.
their big selling point is nostalgia and people eat it up.
and thw handheld option, but we are yet to see how the battery life actually holds up.

Portal already allows third party games like Cyberpunk on a handheld so I think people are hyping this up too much. Games will look better on Portal and have better battery life. My only interest in S2 is exclusives.

Means PS6 and SX2 are gonna be expensive af

OtterX398d ago

doesn't even matter for me, because my Switch 1 was 80% a handheld system for me throughout its lifetime. PS5, then PS6 will continue to be my proper console, bc Nintendo will always stay gimped in that regard. With that said, I'm excited for the Switch 2's extra power solely as a handheld. I don't find the system price unreasonable, but I do find the game prices crazy.

Yeah tend to agree ps is my main but i travel for work and having a switch has always helped with flights and hotel stays

I use to bring my PS5 with me everywhere with a huge case hehe. Now I bring my Portal with me everywhere unless I am going to a cabin with no Wifi and then I bring my Pro with me.

The Switch 2 is, what, $629 CAD? I'm not paying that, I'll wait for a price drop. But I'm just wondering how expensive the next PS and Xbox are going to be. I'm definitely not buying them at launch.

This is where shit is just getting too expensive to be worth it for me. Smaller jumps in visuals each gen, poor quality games in general, many games broken or borderline unplayable on launch, mtx out the ass, higher game prices, etc. For me it's not worth paying so much more for so much less. I'll stick with PC where I have a higher cost but so much more utility and usability for the money.

PC upgrade costs are astronomical as well. Furthermore, AAA games on PC will be priced comparably to AAA games on console. If you want cheap quality games, there are hundreds of good indies out there which will run just fine on a console or low powered PC.
