The Leftovers 

Switch has no games

That's awesome. Can make the waifu character look how I want. 

Only a month away too. Switch is on fire.

Meanwhile, lemshits get yet another dashboard UI change because it's so fucking horrible.  Microsoft still hasn't figured out how to make a user interface that doesn't suck.

This was still the best console UI ever. The one on X1 is fucking atrocious. 

Switch owns

This, Condemned, and Dead Rising  

 

this shit was the best

 

When MS and devs in general had pride in Xbox and its exclusives.

Bioshock should be added in there.

Sony racing games  

Wipeout in PSVR is one of the best racing games of them gen.  

Alan Wake was a great concept but poor design. I think a sequel could be really great. The first one was an EXCLUSIVE that made me want to buy a 360 just so I could play it. MS just doesn’t get it.

How many levels are there in total?

 

Like 200 or something?

No it’s only like 20 or so. There’s different modes but the journey mode only takes a few hours at most. I did get an endless mode that took me 90 minutes until I failed. It’s a very good Tetris game. 

Best OST of the gen and really gorgeous. I enjoyed the entire journey mode. 

Also James Cameron is on as a producer and it’s being directed by Tim Miller of Deadpool fame. Hoping for the best for this one.

MS.needs casual GAAS for the XCloud phone audience they want so badly. Unless they make the next Fortnite no one is playing any of their shit en mass on phones. Same goes for Sony btw

That split controller for use on mobile is a sign they're heading that way.

Made it through over 100 levels completed on normal endless mode with still over 20 lives. Cracked under 10k in rankings. Such a good game and perfect everyday with my commute. I just use my phone as WiFi spot.

Looks like the gaming division is the only sector of MS that's not profiting.

Wasn't Mario Maker 2 the game that they advertised that if you buy the game with Nintendo Online, they sell it digitally for $70, basically a $10 discount for the online service?

 

So, the digital sales on that game are probably going to be considerable.

The NPD didn't even take into account digital sales for SMM2 which means it's probably sold a fuck ton overall.

You got to think everyone buys GTAV with a new console. Those continued sales are ridiculous. 

Switch also showing more YoY growth 

Looks like another solid exclusive for Switch.

It was my personal GOTY for last year. Loved every part of it.

Netflix just reported that their subscriber base shrinked for the first time ever, losing 130,000 subscribers in the US. They had originally predicted to grow by 5 million subscribers worldwide, but they only grew by 2.7 million.

 

Their downturn is coming.

 

Microsoft is picking a very bad time to get into the online streaming business.

 

The problem is the over saturation of the market. Every company and media is trying to stream. I expect a rise in piracy in the coming years. 

That's super impressive given that Arkham City was available on every platform.

Yeah the virtue signaling with this game is very off putting. You can make a great game with a strong female protagonist like Horizon Zero Dawn and not have it just be about that.
