Okay, so today we have our current gen (Xbox 360, Wii, PS3), and then we have the last gen (GameCube, Xbox, and PS2), but YEARS before that, we had the N64, SNES, PS1, and NES. We consider those “retro” today, and you can find those games in most pawn shops or independent gaming retailers, or you can download them from services over the internet, or over the Wii feature called “Virtual Console”. So that’s the retro as of now, and in the next couple of gens, the Wii, PS2, and Xbox 360 will probably be retro, and considered totally “out of date”, and just not cool anymore. What will happen with systems like I listed before, the NES, SNES, PS1 and such? Will it still be retro, or will it just go beyond retro and just pretty much be ancient? Will we still be able to get the games at places or over the internet or even our consoles? What will happen with the “retro” that we know of now and love?
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
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
