Good thing that's not the only nor main metric for success in it's case.

Yet, it was the only metric microsoft measured their success in gaming early last year, still no update on gamepass numbers :jbhmm:




Funny how they stopped talking about that too :sas2:

PC doesn't count. Most people don't have a gaming pc. They are console only.

As a PC person, I think you have to prefer Microsoft over Sony, for what you just mentioned. You get the Xbox exclusives day 1. It's amazing. Sony is coming more over to the PC world, but they make you wait years to get exclusives. If they dropped their exclusives on PC on day 1, I might be inclined to prefer Sony over Microsoft. However, that is not the case, so Microsoft is better in my mind.
Microsoft's objective is to get you to sub to Game Pass. Sony's objective is to get you to buy a PlayStation. PC gamers will always be second class customers to Sony. Their games exist on that platform to bait customers into buying a PlayStation so they don't have to wait over a year to access Sony games. Microsoft's attitude is if you want to not buy an Xbox and just do business with them on PC that's fine. They'll still treat you the same.

Thats exactly why a lot of these pc only gamers on here dikk ride xbox by default
I mean, can you blame them? I want to have access to all of the good games, regardless of platform, and that's why I have a PS5 and Switch, as well as my gaming PC. I typically always have every console in a generation, but there's no reason to own a Series X if you have a good gaming pc. If Sony did the same thing as Microsoft and released exclusives day 1, there would be no reason to buy a PS5 for PC gamers. Sony is forcing your hand if you want to play exclusives. So, PC gamers of course prefer Microsoft.

One might wonder, what's the big deal about playing on PS5 versus PC? Well, PC has better graphics, better framerate, and allows for super ultrawide resolutions. Games are simply better on PC than the consoles. So Sony forcing you to play an inferior version as a business plan puts a bad taste in PC gamers' mouths

No just pointing out the obvious and why the usual pc users are in every thread defending xbox and shytting on ps. Yall can be bitter all you want, you don’t share the same energy with Nintendo though, hence this thread :manny:

Now I'm trying to find a Breath of the Wild switch rom, but all I can find is the Wii U version :mjcry:

And every site that claims to have Breath of the Wild for switch is full of viruses...lol. Malware Bytes was going crazy :dead:

Edit: Found a torrent for that and Mario Odyssey on 1337. Now I gotta fire up PIA. I hate torrents, but they've left me no choice

You can play not only Xbox 1st party games on PC but random 3rd party with gamepass, so of course PC players prefer Xbox.

Nintendo doesn't make games that hinge upon graphics first therefore PC players don't really care.

Also Nintendo is 100% against modding their games and have features built with their console in mind that they would have to take out, change or remove on PC.

Sony on the other hand is telling PC players that they have to wait in order to play these 1st and 3rd party exclusives.

Meanwhile Xbox is like "here, day 1 go have fun"

I think that's Cemu. if so, it is the Will-U version

but yeah, navigating through all that is why I don't usually bother with emulation

:comeon: Straight up booty hole babble

How you gonna get the Wii controller to work on PC breh?

What about the Wii u controller?

How about the gyro and joycon features?

Mods, emulation?

:stopitslime:


The Smash tournament has been getting modding cease and desist for like a decade now.

This ain't nothing new, every since Pokemon dropped Nintendo has been heavy any type of modding of games or systems.

I just got a Steam Deck. I'm putting NES, SNES, Genesis, and Saturn games on it tomorrow.

Emulation is kinda cool at times. I remember playing Ocarina of Time on 3 monitors back in the day. I never played Mario Galaxy 2 or Breath of the Wild, and if I could play a better version on PC, I think I will. I'm kinda skeptical that Switch games will run well, even on my 4090. But we shall see

Are we only talking about wii games, do you not think playstation games use gyro also?

Theres very little switch games that require gyro to function, the only one i can think of is splatoon and i dont even think its mandatory.

Cut the shyt, chadly :ufdup:

Theres nothing stopping nitnendo from porting their games to pc other than they don’t want to, because they want to sell consoles, just like Sony.
