15% is high to be honest. If Valve were to agree to something like that (which is a big IF), I don't see Microsoft get more than 3%, with Valve keeping the other 27%. Microsoft needs Valve waaaaaay more than Valve needs Microsoft. They may even just put the steam store on there for free while still doubling down on game pass.
The part that does sound interesting is the AI being able to remind you what you were doing in the game if you haven't played it in awhile. It also could be useful as a guide so I don't have to go to YouTube. Not interested in having it play the game for me and it also needs to be able to be disabled.
As a smash bros player, I find no issue with the clickety clack of the xbox controller.
Fair point, but if the number of consoles don't tell us the size of the market, how can we know that the market is much bigger today?
Regarding the current gen's console count. While I expect it to eventually overtake the PS2 gen, I don't think it'll be by much.
Is it? 160 mil PS2s + 21 million gamecubes + 24 million xbox = 205 million consoles.
101 million Wiis + 87 million ps3s + 85 million xbox 360s = 273 million consoles.
117 million ps4s + 58 million xbox ones + 13 wii us = 188 million consoles
150 million switches + (and counting) 75 million ps5s + (estimated) 30 million xbox series = 255 million consoles
And that's without factoring in the handheld market that no ...
Most played game.
66% of steam users recommend.
Amazing abandoned games that you should ARRRR.
EA and Ubisoft don't produce consoles.
^ Whew that irony...
It will.
Not sure why you believe it isn't selling well. Donkey kong has been top 10 in the UK charts since release.
$400 = Easy day one buy
$450 = Maybe a reluctant day one buy
$500 = Playing the waiting game
I honestly don't expect Nintendo to gain much from releasing their games on 3rd party consoles. People are conditioned to buy Nintendo games on Nintendo hardware. Once that changes, Nintendo will probably lose out on revenue as people pass on their underpowered console to wait for their game to release on a superior console. Tons of people only have a Switch for exclusives, and those exclusives sell better than most games on the other platforms and Nintendo is able to pocket the bulk of ...
Sounds like they may be going the Sega route, to the surprise of no one. Whether or not they keep a console is going to depend on how many of their console owners are subscribing to game pass. If that percentage falls too low compared to PC or Mobile, you can bet that xbox consoles will be gone.
Reminder that GTA V was released on the PS3.
Not just Switch 2 but most Steam gamers aren't using high end gaming rigs, so it would support those lower spec pcs as well.
The S holds back games from Xbox. It does not hold back any games for Playstation.
None of those games "require" boost services.
And when GTA 6 or call of duty show up on the Switch 2 but not the OG Switch, then what?
They'd get laughed out the room. Again.
