Literally just rubbing it in the day the PS5 comes out. KEK

Good. More games and less walking cinematic experiences for us.

You see folks, this is what happens when you make games that are fun to play and never gets old. I bought Mario Kart 8 and still have fun with it today as much as I did 3 years ago.

Literally how? How and why the fuck are people still buying these things when the PS5 is launching?

Switch has games and is cheap.

There is no reason to buy either of the new systems and there won't be for at least a year, probably 2.

I think it's because the Switch is a handheld.

It’s going to be real funny to see PS5 and Xbox debuting at #2 and #3 for their launch month.

Nintendo Switch has Games

>switch has video games
>ps5 has cinematic trannybait

Different demographics. People interested in AAA shit (Moviegames and soulless shooters) are not interested in games that prioritize gameplay (Nintendo games)

>There is no reason to buy either of the new systems

I can think of a few

>Demon's Souls
>Spider-Man Miles Morales
>PS4 games playable in 4K
>Dozens of PS4 games for free via PS+
>AAA multiplats day 1 - Cyberpunk 2077, CoD Cold War, Assassins Creed Valhalla, DMCVSE
>Game suspension and ultra fast loading
>B A C K W A R D S C O M P A T I B I L I T Y
>New technological advanced controller that it revolutionizing the industry more than Nintendo ever did with the Wii controller or joy cons

>population of s o y is increasing

Yes, I know, it has a remaster of an 11 year old game and a port of a PS4 game and you can play the PS4 games you already have and played again, and it will have cross-platform games for 2 years until everyone transitions to next gen exclusively. Literally no ACTUAL reason to go buy a PS5/SeX now

Yet, they still let Alphadream and Skip die and refuse to greenlit more Fatal Frame games.

I know this is shitposting but do Snoygroes actually believe that?

this nigga straight up listed PS4 games 5 times (and one PS3 game)

>try my hardest to get an animal crossing edition switch back in march
>literally impossible to except for $800
>cave and get a regular switch
>animal crossing switches are plentiful in stock again
Should I sell my switch and get an animal crossing switch
I'd be losing about $100 for some aesthetics on a switch I barely play anyway

They have the benefit of using 2013 outdated hardware so there isn't as much of a supply issue haha...

Are Switches still hard to find in the US? Are any of you anons still searching for them?

I'm gonna puke.

alphadream killed itself trying to get into HD development on the PS4

wait for the switch pro user

it has games.

>haha...
Tell me how I know you play kiseki

I tried playing these games actually but they're all shit.

It already has games for it, and by that I mean a sizeable library and not just a couple of exclusives and a little bit of backwards compatibility.
It has a gimmick that people find legitimately useful.
It's cheaper than the PS5.
It's also actually in stock and not being gobbled up by scalpers.

Impossible not play Kiseki nowadays with all the shitposting it gets on /vrpg/

Retarded zoomer, they didn't make games for it.

That's part of it. Because someone can easily pass the Switch around and people can play games live and in person. Very good for word of mouth. Faggotstation 4 and Xbox are mostly sitting in people's basements.

That's how it looks like at this moment.
Unless Nintendo does something stupid like launch Switch 2 next year.

Now imagine the 2021 numbers, especially if we get a new Pokemon game as well.

Switch hardware is more modern than PS4/XBO

>PS4 in 2018 with 342 000 units sold

PATHETIC

Mario Kart 9 will rape and murder all of those combined. I wonder when Nintendo will launch that nuclear bomb.

lmao

Not this gen, for sure

How are people still surprised by this?
Despite your tastes, objectively the switch has more games.
Wait a while, and things might change when/if the new gen gets more games.

$299 system with $30-$60 games vs $499 system with $70 games that you can get for $60 or less on last gen consoles.

COPE.
