That's not saying much, Microsoft fucked up hard with the Xbone
>no monster hunter
Dead fucking >console
The PS4 got to 70 million sales without it so how do you explain that?
Depressed millennials in college or in their twenties working shitty jobs have something to play while being depressed and drinking Starbucks drinks and listening to EDM, Trap, and indie music.
Didn't Nintendo already have a bigger share of the console market than Microsoft last year?
you can't play the soyny at starbucks, silly.
PS always win baby
I can't believe how salty you are that a videogame company is selling a shitload of videogames.
???
Will Microsoft ever bounce back?
For that matter, the DS sold over 150 million with no Monster Hunter.
You laughed at me for rooting for the underdog Sup Forums, and now look at you. Nintendo already won this gen
But it did get one, system is region free, and it's piss easy to make another account for another region to buy digital.
Oh no not again in anal vore
Isnt it more that Microsoft has just gone to shit though. I mean they have been laying down one shitty choice after another ever since the xbox one was shown at E3.
>Nintendo
>the underdog
lol good one
that would be microsoft, sony is the big bad
It still managed to sell around 30 million units, though I think they've struggled to sell another million from 2015 hitherto.
This is good. I just want more info the fucking games coming to the system, nigga. I know that if I go out and buy it today I can get Mario, Zelda, and Bayonetta, and with my backlog that would probably keep me busy half a year, but I want more. I need dates for Mario Aces, TWEWY, HW Definitive, MP4, and SMTV. And more exclusive titles. This is the first time since the N64 where I wouldn't mind another Zelda and another Mario using the same engine, and building upon what they learned from these first Switch entries.
Obviously. It's not possible to have less than zero market share.
Yes, given a new console generation, and good marketing/games lineup.
Nintendo just stayed the course of trying to be supportive of the industry more than the competition for far longer in gaming history.
It makes no difference whether or not you're a fan of Nintendo/Sony or not, Microsoft spent every single year of the xbox's entire life brand across three consoles digging themselves into a shithole and the mainstream audiences finally started catching on halfway through the 360's lifespan.
Everything went right. Which is why this thread hasn't been locked
im in my twenties with a shitty junior developer job and i bought it to play with gf because the last nintendo console i had was when i was 6 and i played emulating mario games for years
Microsoft is the under dog.
Xbone has nothing going for it except the Xbox/Microsoft brand name. Switch is late to the game, but it has good exclusives
>this year
Took 2 generations
Western localisation when?
Microsoft will try to brute force and buy their way back into contention.
Tomorrow.
dont worry guys. microsoft direct is happening too.
news.xbox.com
Literally the Sega of the 21st century
>microsoft direct is happening too
It's kind of amusing how the media bullying Nintendo to play their game, ended up biting them so hard when Nintendo rather than caving in chose to distance themselves from the media and play their own game instead.
Microsoft is a massive, massive corporation. If they are the underdog in the industry, it can only be due to their own incompetence putting them into that position.
I think Sega's alright, the incompetent ones are Sonic Team. They're so out-of-touch with their fanbase that fucking fangames are more anticipated.
Speaking of, how's Mania on the Switch? Is it 60fps? It seems like the best system to own it, IMO.
Not really. I played the kiosk Nintendo Switch before and I really like it. I wish I had one though.
I just like imagining depressed millennials owning one.
Probably.
>Microsoft is a massive, massive corporation.
So is Nintendo. They're the richest corporation in all if Japan.
Jesus christ I feel so attacked right now.
It doesn't matter how big or small the company is, but the output it produces. Nintendo puts out a plethora of first party titles constantly. Sony is off doing it's own thing, meanwhile Microsoft is barely doing anything. All the resources in the world, yet Phil and his clowns can't muster any games.
Nintendo is no where near Microsoft or Sony's size. They specialize in videogames.
>bigger share than Microsoft
that's really not hard at all
It is very impressive because consoles sell best around 4-5 years in. Typically the first year is actually quite slow.
I hope so, but not holding my breath.
In terms of total assets, Sony has 19.4 trillion yen. Nintendo has 1.74 trillion. Subtracting liabilities, Nintendo has 1.35 trillion yen, and Sony has 3 trillion yen. Microsoft's total assets are $256 billion, $78.36 billion after subtracting liabilities. Though Nintendo has very little debt, Sony is bigger and richer than Nintendo, and Microsoft absolutely dwarfs them both.
>implying I have the money for starbucks
Nigga, I just drink the free coffee at work, or buy a can for 5 bucks that lasts me like three months.
It's not fancy, but the fancy shit gets you fat anyway.
Sonic Mania is the same as other systems yeah
Didn't Sonic Team do Puyo Tetris?
It was pretty good, although the PC port's got some issues. I think the bigger moral is that Sonic Team is better at anything that's not Sonic.
Is there a goid homebrew scene for switch? I'm thinking of getting one but i mostltly just wanna play emulators tbqh
Yes, they already starting to.
They fucked up hard with no games, Sony fucked up the launch of the PS3 but 4 years in they were turning things around by dropping nice exclusives. It's 4 years in, there's no exclusive. No matter how hard Sup Forums and the Internet scream exclusives don't matter the proof is in the pudding
I think they should just drop the Xbone and focus on Windows. Maybe just give Windows an "Xbox Mode" and make their next console a basic PC.
>PS3
>turning anything around
Sony didn't turn shit around, the PS3 still lost and ended up in third place. While the Xbox One X is getting a lot of good will, now that we have Inside Xbox again, we'll see how things go for them at E3 this year.
Why? there's no reason too, no one plays Windows 10 games because the Windows Store is a mess, the games end up playing better on the Xbox any and sale on the Xbox, and with PC prices being very high in the US, there is no point in getting a PC anyway.
>billion is bigger than trillion
First your you hate metric and now this?
Fucking hell murrica get with the program
Not him but dollars vs yen you stupid Europoor.
Here comes Mr. Xbro know-it-all. Eat a dick
I'd have to say they were probably joking about that.
Still mad both Microsoft and Nintendo curb stomped you last gen, be prepared because the same thing will happen again next gen when Sony fucks up with the PS5.
But I'm 30
They mean more sold consoles.
I just hate revisionist X-cucks. They turned the PS3 around faggot, it's a fact, you can't revise history with your Xfag agenda
>turned it around
>could never outsell the Xbox 360 or Wii.
Surprising nobody. Xbox is a joke.
The Xbox 360 had a year head start an tied with a $599 no games machine. Thats a L
Marketing
The PS3 was a lot more damaging to Sony than the Xbox 360 was to Microsoft, though neither was very successful.
>tied
>still shilling VGChartz as a source
I didn't say it wasn't damaging I said they turned it around, with video games, and Microsoft could do the same with Xbox but they refuse to make video games
WOW Xbox 360 sold 1 million MORE, Xfags get the SPECIAL AWARD, are you happy? You have no games bitch
Xbox is dead. Bury it.
The PS3 was the best console of its gen.
>PS3
what a weird way to spell "Wii".
PS3 is still in production, whereas the 360 is deader than dead. I expect when Sony puts out the final numbers for PS3 to be at 88M or so, surpassing Xbox 360 for the fucking Xgroids can shut up already.
>Wii
Sony never salvaged anything with the PS3. They managed to get units moved with big price cuts, but that only drove them further into the hole. They never really reversed their fortunes until the PS4.
If you take away the %50 that had to rebuy due to RRODthe final sales would be around 60 million
Nah they had games and they sold consoles, they turned it around no matter how hard you try.
Don't worry Playstation will be dead come next gen.
Says the fag with no games. It's pathetic that Sony hasn't put out shit and PS5 is around the corner.
That's not the Wii and Xbox 360.
That doesn't matter, Wii and Xbox 360 have been discontinued and already won that gen, it doesn't matter if the PS3 outsells either of them because that gen is already done.
They lost billions in the process, and didn't recover until PS4.
Switch has a MH you faggot
I've very satisfied with Sony's line-up but thanks. Let's just talk about PS5 rumors to win your arguments since there's no other way
If you were born somewhere between 1982 and 1996 you qualify as a Millennial.
Though I kinda would imagine the depressed millennial being in his or her 20s.
>i-it doesn't matter
As expected.
I'm glad you are but to me, their lineup is shit. Now they are planning to rush the PS5 out by 2020 to 1up the Xbox One X but the next Xbox is coming in 2021. Sony will be getting butt fucked by both Nintendo and Microsoft because they have gotten arrogant again.
It really doesn't when both the Wii and Xbox 360 are no longer being sold in stores.
Probably some time after PC gets World which is when Sony's paid strangle hold for timed exclusivity on World runs out. I guarantee part of Sony's fat check they wrote Capcom was to delay localization of XX to keep full attention on World. I don't fucking care thought because I have both consoles. Still a shitty move.
That's why you X-trash are in disarray. So concerned with financials but never concerned about games. Touting the bankruptcy of Sony for now 12 years? Meanwhile each E3 Xbox got shittier and shittier, all you could cling to was Sony's supposed demise. I'm sure the X-trash on v are leading edge financial analysts.What am I sonys accountant faggot? I'm just here to play games
>They turned the PS3 around
No they didn't
lmao, no they won't. Xbone has sold 40 million Xbrraps. The Nintendo Shitbitch will take 5 years to catch up. The Shitglitch has NOGAEMS and sales will come to a screeching halt just like with the Wii U because of that.
This article isn’t about install base. Nintendo isn’t going to sell double this year what they did last.
Yeah, E3 let's see how that turns out for Sony this year. I bet they have the same games they had last year, VR, and third party shit. While Microsoft and Nintendo are about to bring the games. The only thing Sony can do is announce the PS5 next year but it will be a disaster like the PS3 and PS4 Pro.
Yes PS5 rumors will save you and Xbox. Is this your first generation? These rumours will persist for years until Sony is ready
PS3 outsold 360 around 2012
360 had a higher attach rate though
Lol, Switch had more games in the first six months than PS3 and PS4 lifetime combined. There's a reason sony owns the no games meme. Just accept it.
If dev kits are already out then that shit is coming in 2020. Prepare for a worse reveal than the PS3.
literally noone plays xbone except for COD dudebros
>VGChartz
Having exclusives and a reason to actually purchase the console.
>being this mad over videogames
