Why Video Game consoles are going extinct

[The Mad Titan]

Interesting non bias (mostly) and (mostly) objective look on consoles, their history and the potential future.


Y'all know my stance on this.

Internet access in most of the US is not able to have an enjoyable cloud gaming experience.

Video is pure hopium.

Not extinct but the rise in non traditional consoles will soar
Emulation steamdeck good gaming laptops and pcs etc

 

[Kamikaze Revy]

Cliff notes = Xbox got obliterated last gen and is getting curbed stomped this gen
Conclusion = Gamers must not want consoles any more and would rather pay double or triple the cost for a PC or just play on their phones.
Reaction = Laughs in Sony and Nintendo

Cloud options may soften the market for consoles over time or make the overall audience more broad, but I believe there will always be a significant portion of gamers who will prefer to play on a native device because some degree of input latency or connection fluctuations will always be there. Same reason why people still connect to directly to Ethernet despite the prevalence of wifi

I don’t think console gaming will ever die out unless we get to the point where our smartphones can run AAA games natively and can hook up to TVs/monitors on some switch shyt

One of the many reasons PC gaming is the GOAT. I don't have to worry about y'all console peasants
