Please remind me how many billions were spent on r&d, games, commercials, and all the above for a failed Kinnect? Rrod?? Steadily declining sales on 1st partys that's gotten so bad that even ms have lost faith in their craft or making new ip's??? Plumeting sales that are so bad on the xb1s they could literally price it at 199, give out free games (New ones), and a bj by Cortonna herself... and they still wouldn't move consoles... If they are making lots of $$$ its from Xbox li...
Ms are forever and always "fundamentally rethinking" everything they do...
Ms motto.... If at first you fail, fail fail again
The switch has not outsold the ps4 every month since release and the months it did outsell the ps4 it wasnt by 100s of thousands... Less than 500k. I think the switch will have a uphill battle with ps4 getting pricecuts and the xb1x... But we shall wait and see.
Look i want the xb1x to be successful and all that but it looks to be a repeat of the xb1s... Sales will soar and prob sell well for the first 6 months and then taper off. Playstation has 3-5 big games launching in the first half of 2018 with more heavy hitters by years end. What exactly does xb1x have other than better versions of 3rd party games? I hope to god it can bring some life into the all but dead xb1s but when the ps5 is announced its game over for the "beast"
The last paragraph of the 1st comment on here... And you're comparing a 2017 console to a 2013 one. Ps4 has sold 63 million in 3.5 years and prob closer to 75 million after the slim and pro see pricedrops near its fourth bday... Thats 18.7 million a year and is about to be 249 and easilly be nearing 100 mil by this time next year. Sooo 6-7 mil switches in the first 6 months doesnt seem that impressive honestly and def not smashing any sales records like some nintendudes would like to beli...
I get you wanting to defend nintendo but i dont need a history lesson on nintendo or anything gaming related as i used to be the BIGGEST nintendo fangirl from the nes, snes, n64, and gamecube... The wii is where nintendo lost their way with me and the wiiu was just garbage so dont blame myself or others for being the opposite of optimistic. You almost sound like my points made above hold no weight at all. Theres a difference between being a fanboy and being a blind fanboy...
I remember being terrified of the 1st two silent hills... Or even like the first 2 fatal frames... I feel if someone did either 1 of those games justice in a recent build they could be amazing
Because besides forza and cuphead its slim pickings
If sony bought out capcom that would be insain... Plus sony has a track record of making great games and not just buying out companies and letting their frachise ip's die a slow death like another company...
Doesnt really matter as nintendo fans will ignore the switches shortcommings while others point out the obvious flaws and be called trolls lmao.
For 299 at launch nintendo could have offered much more yet instead they decided to be just good enough.
1. Zelda should have launched years ago
2. Mario should have been a launch game
3. Virtual console should have been there day 1
4. Online mp is a joke ...
It ended in 2013 as well
Kinnect has basically been doa since 2013 when the xb1 was announced to see it was being crammed down gamers throats whether they wanted it or not and was gimped further saying things like "xb1 wont even work without kinnect" 😳
Nahh... Well... Its too early to tell tbh but the gamecube and snes were the glory days
This to me seems like the same nintendo since after the gamecube gen
I wanted a stand-alone home console, no friend codes, 1st party games that arent mario, zelda, mario kart (within the 1st year) that also werent on the wiiu, fully fleshed mp, 1080p 60 or better for all games (its almost 2018 for crying out loud, better storage than the wiiu (not debateable the switch...
Honest question...
Isnt the xb1x something like 4-5x stronger than the xb1s? Although this looks great... It doesnt look 4-5x as great. Maybe like 2x as great. Even 3-4x as powerful you would think the x could do a 2016 game at checkerboard 4k 60 instead only 1080 60.
I cant wait to see games made from the ground up on the x with ms 1st party studios like hzd with the pro.
Neither... The ps4 slim will sell more than the pro, xb1s, and xb1x combined but just pertaining to the pro vs x noone really knows as both consoles prob wont get specific sales.
Failing? Lmao... Devs give no fncks if after 1-4 weeks ppl stop playing destiny 2 when collectively across all platforms (xb1, ps4, pc) the game still sells 5-15 million copies after a period of time spanning 1-6 months... Forget the fact the game is currently sitting at an 85 meta score but most ppl who have played the game claim d2 pretty much improves on every aspect from d1 and generally have great things to say about it with vets and new players alike **which will forever be all anyone c...
Hmm but how many nintendo games would look better on a ps4 or pro? Basically all nintendo 1st partys since... Forever would run at native 4k 60 on the pro.
These companies need to swallow their pride and say "ill give you this equally popular game for yours". Perfect example, sony could give nintendo the uncharted series for mp 1-4 😊
And ori and the blinde forest
Ms just has too many issues atm. Their xb1 sales are dwindeling, their 1st party games usually get canceled or delayed, and when they do put out 1st party games, they dont sell too well... Even some of their better known franchises have taken a loss. Uc4 1 game outsold halo 5, gears 4, quantum break, recore, sunset overdrive, and halo wars 2 COMBINED... ouch
Maybe next year when its 399 and comes with free goodies 😉
