how do exclusives benefit the consumer?
At this point exclusive games barely even benefit the hardware makers let alone the consumer. In terms of Sony and Microsoft the games they make are so expensive to produce they can’t justify keeping them exclusive to only their consoles anymore.

Meanwhile Nintendo has built their entire business off of only really existing on their hardware.

Nintendo still makes console exclusive games. That won't change. The death of such games is not inevitable.
Nintendo has shifted their entire handheld software business to non-nintendo platforms.

Nintendo console games are no longer exclusive to one piece of hardware.

They may not be going PC (yet)but their business is shifting away from “exclusives” as well.

1. In no world has backwards compatibility ever meant 'non-exclusive'.

2. Twilight Princess was a Wii launch title/GameCube release, BOTW - Switch launch Title/Wii U release, they've literally been doing that since 2006.

Switch 2 launch/Switch release isn't going to be new territory for Nintendo or some sort of gotcha for this narrative lol

1. no one ever said it was

2. This will extend well beyond one game with switch 2. Software cost too much to make. They are not gonna cut off the 100 million switch users any time soon. By the time Switch 1 stops playing nintendos new releases we will be thinking about a switch 3.

Beyond your homoerotic fantasies.

Seems we should respect our own community members insights more than the random cacs some of you chose to follow.

As @The Mad Titan pointed out. We’ve had community members bang this drum a long time ago and their insights were thrown aside just for now the industry cacs some of you chose to respect are saying the same type of shyt.

If we had a real community here outside of people trying to score console wars points, we wouldn’t need these cacs opinions here.

But you would rather attack a community member cause he’s not following what an outside cac has to say about things.

nikkas crazy :wow:

IE “i want to use these cac sources to console war but don’t want other people to do it in the future, so I’ll mock them while using them to further my agenda in the meanwhile”
