Why is the PS4 such a shitty console? pic unrelated

No one actually knows why some consoles are successful and some aren't. Even Sony said they has no idea why the PS4 was selling. The console market is100% unpredictable, which is why no one's seriously attempted to enter the console market since 2001.
Jackson Wright
Say what you will about the moviestation, but it doesn't have a $80 controller.
Zachary Russell
>EXTREMELY expensive controller
It's the cheaper controller on the market, wtf are you talking about
Jacob Peterson
Are you talking about the PS4 or the Switch?
Evan Sullivan
It's not an industry based on success. It's one based on hoping your competitor falls flat on its face.
Cameron Miller
it's funny how you can say that for every consoles.
Adam Price
Yeah the switch is the PS Vita of Nintendo.
William King
Yeah, hated that shit on the Dreamcast
Isaiah Murphy
I have played PS4 at multiple friend's houses and I just found it to be generally mediocre. It's not terrible by any means but it's flaws are noticeable. Here are a few things I have experienced in the short hours I have borne witness to the completely whelming experience of the PS4
>controllers have extremely short battery life, have a way too bright light bar, and it feels light and cheap >the PS4 always needs to update something. You will sit through an update no matter what you decide to do in one way or another >the performance was never really that wowing to me because the games look the same as last gen with better particle effects
I thought I was going to be really disappointed in the Nintendo Switch graphics but considering this was the most pathetic generation of consoles performance wise, while simultaneously being creatively bankrupt, at least the Switch has Nintendo games and some good last gen ports.
Cameron Martin
I laughed, *upvotes*

Still $10 more than it needs to be because of the fucking touchpad

Is this the "argument" of toddlers now?
Matthew Cox
That in itself was the joke, he'd go on a long description with an image attached that was supposed to make readers think that it was referring to the system in the attached image at first but then he subverts the reader's expectations in the last line by saying that he's talking about another system. A common joke really. And I didn't care enough to validate it. The switch is in itself enough of a joke.
There is no reason not to own a Xbone, Switch and PS4 if you have the money for them. All have exclusives that may be worth playing, depending on your preference of games. Console war shitposting is absolutely ridiculous and contributes almost nothing to any thread ever, unless the thread itself is dedicated to it (like this one). To fight against each other over what appears to be brand loyalty is retarded, no amount of shit flinging is ever going to convince the other person of anything.
Adam Lewis
You can change the back light brightness.
Battery life is shit though. I just got a dock thing I put the controllers in. Still shit.
The updates happen pretty much on their own. If you don't play a game for a while yeah you gotta update to play online. You can skip it if you don't care.
I bought my PS4 for the exclusives and couch games. It's been pretty good for that.
If no games interest you buy something else.
Brayden Anderson

>he looks sad He doesn't know the meaning of Killing Bites.
The updates are the absolute worst, they can take fucking hours to finish and it happens near constantly. I don't think the ps4 is terrible overall, but it sure as hell can be a lot better.
Aiden Phillips
As far as I can tell, Gears, Halo, Forza, Sunset Overdrive and Crackdown (if that will ever release). It isn't much but if you like those games it'd be worth getting. I also think it's the best for multiplats perfomance wise but don't quote me on that.
>outdated graphics Not even defending Sony but this is a false statement and you know it
Zachary Sanders
Wii U was innovative
Joshua Long
It was a the idea of a DS shoved into a home console. It was not innovative.
Henry Hughes
You know jack shit. Nintendo isn't 'innovative', Nintendo's innovation comes from implementing good ideas making them shine identifying its potential. This is simple thing is something Sony never understands.
Carter Evans
I can tell you came hereafter 2016
Lucas Mitchell
>Nintendo's innovation comes from implementing good ideas making them shine identifying its potential. And the Wii U failed to do any of that.
Ethan Wood
It did well, the switch proves that. Wii U was doomed by marketing.
Anthony Walker
>the switch proves that By being something completely different, the Switch doesn't utilize the idea of a 2nd screen like the Wii U, it's quite simply a handheld system that can be hooked up to the TV, something even a PSP did.
Wii U didn't really neiher. Almost nobody used its tablet gimmick because apparently it was bad.
Anthony White
That's still innovation. Doing a good idea right for the first time is innovative. As much as I hate Apple saying they're not innovative because tablets, mp3 players, and smartphones existed before their flagship products doesn't mean they're not innovative.
Josiah Mitchell
It’s a handheld
Lucas Moore
Nintendoland and New Super Mario Bros. was fun as hell with the tablet on multiplayer. It's just that no one else thought of good uses for it for some reason.
Colton Powell
>muh Blast Processing
Thomas Rodriguez
The Switch is designed as a home console that can be played anywhere. That part is the same as the original idea behind the Wii U. Nintendo saw a failed experiment and thought that maybe the problem wasn't in the idea itself, then re-worked it as part of a more appealing product. That's innovation.
Blake Ortiz
The switch is a handheld system disguised as a home console via clever marketing.
Colton Johnson
Wrong gen, friendoso.
Henry Davis
That doesn't even make sense
Bentley Adams

Leo Rogers
>Implying moot is a cancerous redditor-tier.
Based moot, come back fag.
Jayden Wilson
The difference is that games are developed for it with home console specs in mind. Priorities have traditionally been different with portables vs consoles.
Caleb Wright
Sup Forums turned to shit when moot made it his primary board eat shit newfag
Caleb Torres
I'm pretty sure that the Switch is exactly what it's advertised as. Nobody is being fooled. It sounds like you're stuck in a narrow-minded way of thinking, just like Sony was. Being able to look beyond these assumptions is what it takes to innovate.
Charles Brooks
Imho
Pc Ps4 Xbone Switch
Nintendo is gay now desu. The days of the 64 and gamecube are gone. The best things they put out are either mario based or just weeb shit Smash bros and mario cart are probaby the only things it brings to the table that makes me consider throwing some saved up spare change to buy one
PC has its problems, unless you're shilling out major $ for a good rig (that will be outdated in the next 2-3 years) you're not going to have the best experience using it. With that said, everything works better on PC. The only thing i can think of that console beats PC on is say the souls/borne series. Its just better on controller and doesn't need to run on DSfix just to run like it isn't a fat kid on a treadmill. Other then that it does everything better in vanilla alone
Ps4. Has bloodborne as its all time exclusive that is pretty damn old at this point, And the lack of exclusive titles or backwords compatibility makes it a giant headach if you buy it at this point. Also, making me pay to play most games online was retarded on sonys part. Ps3 had such a good thing going for it...
Xbone. 12 yr olds calling you a nigger jew on COD while there mom brings them chicken tendies and tator tots. Still better then switch, but it is too damn toxic for me at this point.
In short. Buy a PC
Mason White
I wish they actually did anything cool with the gamepad. Such wasted potential. I doubt anyone will ever revisit the concept either because how poorly the WiiU sold.
Austin Turner
The wii u was shit
Anthony Sanchez
Gotta love how retarded fanbases eat anything up because of "goodwill" a company accumulates over years. Enjoy being deaf and blind.
Ryan Hernandez
It was shit, but the gamepad itself could've been really cool and used for some great asymmetrical multiplayer. Nintendoland was a great proof of concept but it never went anywhere. I also liked the idea ZombiU had with having all the inventory management on the bottom screen, making it so when you loot you're actively looking away from the game screen and putting yourself in possible danger. Mario Maker also used the gamepad very well. I would've loved to see something like a DnD game where the DM uses the gamepad to manage the dungeon while the party of 4 explores it like a typical dungeon crawler.
Connor Scott
Please, tell everyone who bought a Switch about why they did not really buy what they thought they bought. I'm sure that you can help them see the light.
Dominic Powell
He has a point tho.
I expect SMTV use the gimmick, the real gimmick, not just the 'it's portable' crap.
Samuel Parker
Based on how much current-gen port begging you see, it's safe to assume some retards out there actually think the Switch is a current-gen console.
Blake Diaz
You're speaking as if "generations" are something quantifiable. They're not. I don't think any phrases like "current-gen" are used for marketing the Switch, though.
Cameron Reyes
>They're not. Sure they are. If the Switch isn't much stronger than the Wii U and the Wii U is on par with the PS3/360 then that means the Switch is in the same ballpark as other 7th gen consoles despite releasing only a year ago. That's impressive as for a handheld but embarrassing for a console.
There is no quantifiable measurement of generations or benchmark to determine whether something is "current-gen" or not based on processing power. Typically, "generation" refers to time frames. For instance, PlayStation 3 and Wii are typically considered to be of the same generation. You can also see reliable sources such as NPD referring to the Switch as a "current generation console".
The Switch hardware is decidedly more advanced than the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. It uses a modern architecture and technology that was not available to use until recently. It is also clearly above the Wii U in performance, with Wii U ports on Switch receiving significant performance boosts and new games for Switch being capable of more advanced graphics. There is a plainly visible difference when comparing Splatoon and Splatoon 2.
