No one is competing with Nintendo, they're in their own lane.

They should have taken a few notes, cause super powered consoles with expensive development basically ahut them out of Japan altogether
The Switch took all the Game Boy Advance and DS IPs, along with the previous Nintendo console IPs, and made the Switch into a legendary success. And They gotten Japan to fukk with it.
The gaming market in Japan is different than everywhere else and im sure Sony and Microsoft are happy with the success they've gotten outside of Japan.They should have taken a few notes, cause super powered consoles with expensive development basically ahut them out of Japan altogether

Japanese gamers are usually into more casual and family friendly games. That's not the direction the other two companies want to cater to.
Japanese market was the standard of all gaming success. Hell, wasn't the main argument of Sony's Playstation to M$ was the support of Japan?
So now, goalposts are being moved. Sony is just trying to move away from its Japanese roots and sacrificed it, to comepete with M$ and be more efficient than them.
Nobody give a fukk about Japan brehJapanese market was the standard of all gaming success. Hell, wasn't the main argument of Sony's Playstation to M$ was the support of Japan?

So because Sony got removed from the Japanese charts, is,why they no longer matter. Limiting 1/3 of the entire gaming world is a smart economic strategy.

That's not an argument I've ever made so you can miss me with that stan shyt.Japanese market was the standard of all gaming success. Hell, wasn't the main argument of Sony's Playstation to M$ was the support of Japan?

There was a time where Japan was the standard, but now it's a country where most of the people rather play mobile games on their phone because they don't have time to sit down and play games for hours. They like simple games that you can play in short spurts while on the move. Nintendo is the only company catering to that market.
Again, moving goalposts because SONY is losing. Its Like Nintendo adapted to the times of mobile phones and gaming, and innovated on it. Sony wants to be stubborn and think people want super powered consoles with super high end graphics and the yearly rehashes of GTA/COD/Madden DLC.
"pick the ball up when you're losing, and go home" is the SONY motto. Ignore the home of PlayStation because they chosen American gamers over Japanese ones.
Because I don’t live in Japan is why Japan don’t matterSo because Sony got removed from the Japanese charts, is,why they no longer matter. Limiting 1/3 of the entire gaming world is a smart economic strategy.

@PS5 can easily see that, as a M$ head
Find a post where I've ever cared about the Japanese gaming market, show me how I'm moving the goal post.
Sony can move 100 million consoles without catering to the casual gaming market. Microsoft can move 60 million consoles without catering to the casual gaming market. Theres more than one lane in the gaming industry. I don't even know what you're trying to argue with this shyt.
You think without Japan, would Sony ever reach the PS5? Japan was vital of building the PlayStation brand, and they abandoned it because they rather compete with M$. They even moved the PS headquarters to California, from there.
My Goalposts always been in America
You should go debate someone who actually made all these arguments breh, I don't know why u coming at me with this bullshyt.

they would have to have those studios adapt heavy to their team and build a strong ass relationship. Spawn Wave did describe it best. I've said it before but MS will be fine and laugh hard in due time. they have from what I've seen the best service, accessibility, affordability and just downright inviting service to the consumer right now.
MS can afford to let these new acquired studios be comfortable and work on their projects for brand new games. Nintendo needs studios to adapt to their structure which would take a lot of time. I believe Nintendo acquired the studio that works on Luigi's mansion the other day because they've just built a relationship up over the last while.
Could you imagine Hideki Kamiya on Nintendo's team? That troll would drive them nuts.
