Goukosan 2,258 Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 (edited) "It was another strong month for PS5 in the UK, with stock levels up 56% in August compared with July (GfK data)" "Sony’s machine is currently the UK’s best-selling console of the year (so far). The platform moves ahead of Nintendo Switch. Nintendo’s hybrid console also enjoyed a sales increase of 4% in August." "Xbox Series S and X sales remained steady last month, but was in third place overall." Xbox Switch is reaching its saturation point and PS5 stock levels have increased which has increased its sales. Xbox well... They're just last as always. Edited September 9, 2022 by Goukosan 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Any livingroom console will be inferior to the Series S. Probably the only "blue ocean" they have is VR, and I don't think Nintendo is capable of taking it on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It makes no difference to me, but I wonder how an actual fan could be optimistic. It would be cool if Nintendo did lean into VR but they'd be the worst company to do it.

BTW, DS and Switch are the two best selling Nintendo hardware ever. Nintendo will be here for you to complain about for a very, very long time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PSP was a great system and anyone over 12 who bought a DS is still a virgin today. However, there's a huge difference with handheld PCs: they don't need developer support. Without even trying, they're a better indie platform than Switch. There's no more novelty to a handheld that can plug into a TV because it is completely commodified.

Mario Kart VR, 3D Mario VR, Metroid Prime VR, F-Zero VR, Star Fox VR. Jesus christ. I'd buy that day one if done right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
