Right now the Switch is in first place obliterating Pspro and PSVR sales combined.

WIll they keep this up?

Will Scorpio outsell PSPRO?
>>
>>376363095
I was surprised to learn the Pro is being outsold by the Vita. That's alarming. Even more alarming was Sony didn't provide a sell through figure for VR.
>>
>>376363095
Scorpio is going to be 30 times more powerful than a switch so like what is this meme of calling the switch ninth gen? It isn't. It doesn even surpass the nvidia shieod and that isn't considered 8th or even 7th gen.
>>

Only Nintendo's machine seems like it'll be an actual upgrade from their previous ones. PS4 Pro is and Scorpio looks to be more of the same thing, but in 4K!!!!
>>
>>376363271
I love VR, and I really do love my HTC Vive, but it's still not ready for a mainstream release.

Gens are dead. We will just get stronger versions of Xbone and ps4 from now :^)
>>
>>376363697
Nes Mini is not an 8th gen console. It is only loosely attributable to date of release, cause it implies using the newest tech for the time. Nintendo doesnt do that though.

fuck off arbitrary shitlord. Nes Mini Classic is not an 8th gen console.

Scorpio will outperform PSPRO

Scorpio is literally a new console and it about 5 times better performance than the xbone. New gpu, new cpu, new architecture. It's backwards compatable with xbone, but that doesnt mean its just the Xbone Pro. It's significantly better than either the xbone or PS4 pro.

Scorpio isn't next-gen either, it just plays Xbox One games in 4k.

So is the switch
>>
>>376363925

Yep. This. 100% this.

I'm a software developer so I'm both fairly well off in terms of money and tech knowledge so I'm loving messing around with my Vive, Rift, and PSVR.

That said, it's absolutely not ready for the average gamer Joe:

- Even after a year there's no must-have software for VR. Hell, the Switch has only been out for a couple months and even it already has TWO must-have games.

- It's not trivial to set-up. Even the PSVR will be difficult to set-up for the average gamer. Forget about making sure you have the right hardware requirements for the Rift (multiple specific USB 3.0 controllers) or can get through the hours-long installation and software set-up of the Vive.

- The resolution and optics are pretty shitty. It's like going back in time to 480i CRT TVs... A massive difference from your typical 1080p IPS LED TV and an insane difference from your new 4K HDR OLED curved TV. And then there's the issue that you need to train yourself to not move your eyeballs-only look ahead to where your face is pointing otherwise it's blurry and distorted.

>>
>>376363095
The PS4 already sold a shitload. Why would you buy a Pro/Scorpio instead of a Switch?
You can still play the same games on your non-pro PS4 or PC while Switch has a few exclusives coming (or already has, depends if you got a WiiU or not and most people didn't).

I'd say that most people who got a Switch, already own a PS4.


>b-but Scorpio is more powerful
Who gives a shit, just upgrade your PC instead if you want your multiplats in 4K
>>
>>376364356
Hahaha you actually believe that.
>>
Switch is already outpacing PS4, so get fucked.
>>
Sony, albeit not with the "Pro," is going to hold down the multiplat arena with its basic unit, along with various exclusives, primarily of the weeb variety.

Scorpio will be a great console, as the One S is, but as far as mainline, "powerful" consoles go, Sony has already cornered that, even if the hardware is shit in comparison. So it is.

Switch will do very well, but is likely to not be a direct competitor to either. It will be full of shovelware, first party exclusives, ports old and new, etc.

As for me, Switch is the only one I care about, since Nintendo is still the only one not attempting to straight up emulate PC hardware.

>PS4 won so hard it forced Microsoft and Nintendo to try again and make new consoles

kek

The Nintendo switch has the potential o be good with a hardware revision and strong first party support. Microsoft is the one who goofed the hardest because they thought Xbox lost due to bad messaging and PS4's power advantage so they canceled all their first party projects to focus develop the Scorpio and will be shipping with with zero games since they ported what was left on Xbox to PC.

Power isn't the name of the game in the console business and we've seen that time and time again from the Gamecube to the Vita. It's all about games, marketing and price points. The scorpio barely has marketing down since PS4 Pro coined the term ''The most powerful console in the world'' and Microsoft is playing second fiddle and will be seen as desperately trying to catch up and one-up Sony with ''guys please don't listen to Sony because it's WE who have the most powerful one now, we just canceled all our games to make it happen oh and that'll be $600''. PC: ''Uhh Xbox you not only game me all your game but we also have the most powerful hardware, why do you exist again?''

It's honestly sad MS marketers desperately try and have to latch themselves onto Sony and Nintendo in a desperate attempt to get mindshare because nobody on /v/ ever even semi-legitimately talks about Xbox now because as a brand it's so done and defeated. The only time people talk about Xbox is to ridicule it and circlejerk about the fact that it literally doesn't have a single game or exclusive left to it's name and is trying to gain an advantage by desperately using MS's bank account to start a spec war it already lost to PC before it even began not to mention all it's games are on PC and run better by virtue.

The bottom line is there is no reason for Xbox to exist in this industry, it has no identity, it has no games and all it's franchises have become trash that undersold and bombed, every single one.

How is the scorpio any different than a PC at this point?
>>
>>376368697
Well if that's the point you're going to bring up, which still has NOTHING to do with the logic you're attempting to apply to this scenario, let's at least establish that generations are basically dead now and what we'll be seeing from now on is smart phone like upgrades and increments. Now, as for the original point of this whole exchange
>The Switch is in first place because the Wii u was a huge failure and they had to make a brand new console
>The switch is winning because the last console failed
Again, you have yet to explain your logic or reasoning behind this statement, and you've been deflecting in every which fucking direction possible to avoid having to explain it.

this

generations are dead, and Nintendo hasn't even cared to keep up in lockstep with release schedules of MS/Sony since the Wii U. and neither of them clearly care anymore about that either, considering iterations (pro, scorpio, slim/S) don't coincide with each other, while also not truly signifying gaps to constitute a generation.

Honestly, this "mid-gen" release might have been really smart.
People already got at least one console, so they don't mind getting another one and since most games are multiplat anyways and X1 doesn't have any games, it only leaves the Switch

Honestly, why would anyone buy a X1?

Nintendo is just doing what Nintendo does
Their consoles always last 5-6 years, they don't need to wait just because Sony and M$ like to have 8 year gens. Nintendo more likely just wanted to move on a bit earlier than usual because there wasn't much point in making new games for a console that no one owned.

Switch is a 9th Gen console, I guess PS4Pro is technically just a midgen upgrade like DSi, but its still 8th Gen.
However Scorpio seems like a 9th Gen console and M$ is just using fancy marketing speak to make backwards compatibility sound like a new feature

Nintendo makes it difficult to use the term "generation" meaningfully. Not that Sony and MS with their rehash consoles are helping

I think 8th gen was the last generation because after this it's too difficult to reach consensus on how it applies
>>
>>376371606
Well yeah, no one bought it, its not really up for debate it sold pretty poorly.
Which is a damn shame too because its the only console that got interesting exclusives.
>>
>>376371697
>Nintendo makes it difficult to use the term "generation" meaningfully.
They've literally always had 5 year cycles with two consoles lasting 6 years instead
Just because Sony and M$ want 8 year gens doesn't mean Nintendo is the one doing something weird
>>
>>376364342
Because regardless of the specs the thing itself is only going to be playing Xbone games, not some sort of Scorpio exclusive games. The entire point of it is for Microsoft to take advantage of their "Dynamic Resolution" kind of thing where they can throw things to 1080p if the game allows it with much better AA or texture filtering and newer games taking advantage of the hardware. All games released on it have to work on the Xbone which makes it the Xbone's PS4 Pro or N3DS.
>>
Why is PS4 Pro 9th gen, but New 3DS is still 3DS? Oh wait, shitposters.

It would have been if they had made the NES Mini the successor to their 7th gen console.

Power and performance is entirely irrelevant to iterations of generations.

Exactly. Who cares?

The difference is that people who buy Monster Hunter are actual gamers who play games.
People who buy FIFA are most of the time people who just buy FIFA and perhaps one or two other games and nothing else. Ever.

There are reasons for why the PS4 even with its installed base has very comparable game sales to even the Wii U down at the very bottom when it comes to its installed base.
>>
Wait so why wouldn't people buy a PS4, a cheaper system that looks amazing, has actual games with more coming over a more expensive system with no games?

What's the logic here?

First off, games like uncharted, ratchet and clank, dark souls and so on sell a huge amount on the PS4

It's just that people buying the PS4 for those same 2-3 games is a huge amount of people

And there's nothing wrong with that, it doesn't mean that other games don't sell a shitton man and that people don't want them

What about said about nintendo makes perfect sense, because monster hunter, mario, zelda etc, is the "fifa" of nintendo consoles

Yes, because it's 10 times larger and heavier. It also has no screen and no battery, and comes with 1 controller that has a 4 hour battery. Completely inferior in every way that matters. What a PS4 supposedly does well is done better by PC, and it doesn't do anything the Switch does.

The Switch plays games, has a seamless sleep mode that activates in seconds, and is portable. It also has exclusives, both upcoming and current, especially for Wii U ports that aren't owned by most people.

No matter how much you spout about how the Switch is just using "le gimmicks" and will "never sell", you'll be wrong. Portability isn't a "cheap gimmick" and neither are motion controls in wireless, detached controllers. Most people are, in fact, using portable mode. Nintendo has already done surveys, showing that at least 50 percent of users play the Switch almost exclusively in portable mode.

Wii competed against PS2 and Xbox as a loose followup to the gamecube. Wii U Competed against PS3 and 360.Switch continues to compete against the PS3 and 360 as a loose followup to the Wii U.

Like shit, hardware performance is how you define these generations, not explicitly just arbitrary release dates. If you want to be a fucking retard and say it's based on release date, then the NES Classic Mini is a 9th gen console going off Wii U apparently being 8th gen. Moreover you get yourself into a different pile of shit as a fanboy when saying shit like the Switch is a generational leap over the Wii U or the Wii a generational leap over the Gamecube, but the PS4Pro doesn't count cause autism.

Nintendo isn't in the same game as microsoft and sony. They say by their own admission that they don't try to match what Microsoft and Sony are doing, so if they want to play by different rules then they play a different game unrelated to the generational leaps in console tech pioneered by Sony and Microsoft.

If you want to get extra autismo about it, you can go read the eighth gen consoles article on wiki, where they list 'microconsoles' like the Nvidia Shield by simple referential acknowledgement alone, stating that the likes of the Nvidia Shield are not 8th gen or even 7th gen consoles - and given the Switch has a lower threshold for performance than an Nvidia Shield, well you fill in the blanks.

Switch is not a 9th gen console and being a blatant nintendo fanboy isn't doing you any favors.

Sorry, but the Switch is 9th generation no matter how you slice it. A mobile platform isn't going to have its power judged in comparison to its peers as a requirement. It's running a mobile chip and still performs around 40% of an Xbone if we're talking pure power, and that's with the chip being underclocked. Correctly optimized games utilizing FP16 could be running just as well as an Xbone game. This would be on a mobile device, by the way.

It's like saying a phone isn't from 2017 because it can't compete with a laptop. That's not how it works.

Except I own a PS3 and the trilogy and played UC4 at my buddy's place. It's the same thing. The only difference is the story and graphics. Everything you experience in the game can be mostly retained by watching a playthrough, which isn't the case with more gameplay focused games, many of which come directly from Nintendo as exclusives.

Also, PC can't play Switch games, and once a PS4 emulator comes out you'll be able to play PS4 games, so I'm not sure what your shitty argument is. Killzone's also complete dogshit, you might as well have mentioned Knack and gone full Dunkey.

The PS4Pro is only like 80% better than the standard PS4, while the Scorpio is 500% better than the Xbone. The Xbone S is the practical equivalent to the PS4Pro, cause it's better than the xbone but not by much.

There's too much power there just for the sake of Xbone games that load faster and natively play 4K 60fps - even if their initial statements about it were it being just that. Between the generational leap in hardware alone combined with vulkan support which the original Xbone doesn't have, we're looking at a relative 10x increase in the upper limits of graphical fidelity between Xbone and Scorpio, with half of that expected just to push 60fps 4K.
>>
>>376375527
Yes, phones and consoles are good allusions. The Switch is the smartphone of consoles. The PS4 and Xbone are prebuilt PCs or overpriced laptops. The PC is basically just PC. Laptops are more powerful than smartphones, but smartphones get more powerful every year, with a smaller package and generally better or comparable battery life. That's what the Switch does for consoles. The PS4 and Xbone also don't have the advantage of having ANY portability or battery at all, meaning that the edge the Switch has in those categories are absolute.

Switch is probably going to get the Wii U audience, a big amount of the 3DS audience after the 3DS dies, and some older Nintendo fans. I think it will probably win the gen, especially when it comes to exclusives (Fact: Nintendo has won every gen when it comes to exclusives except 7th gen).
Pro is going to die. No reason to buy one.
Scorpio is going to probably be an impressive console. I expect a lot from Microsoft, i feel like they learned from their mistakes with the xbone.

Uncharted isn't the only exclusive the PS4 has
You don't like it, that's fine, the games aren't for everyone and I understand why some people don't like the games

The PS4 doesn't have enough exclusives to justify me buying one over a Switch, and the PS4 is guaranteed to drop in price. Its hardware provides nothing by itself to me over my PC or a Switch. What exactly is so difficult to understand about this logic?

Also, even considering that the PS4 may be worth owning because of any of the games it has, how exactly does this prove the Switch is not worth owning, again?

It's gotten 2 first party IP games in 2 months, and they're big ones. The PS4 took 2 years before their first good exclusive title came out. Besides the fact that there are at least 3 more exclusives coming out this year, the Switch has a shitload of indie titles worth buying for the portability aspect and it's getting multiplats and 2nd party games coming out this year too.

The Wii U is out of production, and the console sold an abysmal 13 million. Nobody owns the Wii U to justify buying the Wii U version. The game also released at the exact same time on both consoles.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has additional content for the Switch, would be portable, has updated graphics, and has local multiplayer.

Both of these games are worth buying the system for. If you personally don't care about those games, then go ahead and wait. But the system already has plenty of merit under its belt, and it's only going to become more attractive as a device as the year continues.

they were close but PS4 was better.

also I misquoted the boost of the Pro over the PS4. Pro was about 300% better, from 1.8GFLOPS to 4.something

The Vulkan support is whats going to add even more boost over simple better hardware alone, with vulkan also being how the Switch is even possible given it's hardware raw limits are worse than a PS3's.

Even Nintendo can survive lacking multiplats, but nobody can survive having 0 exclusives on a console that doesn't have any major benefit over its competitors.

the PS3 had like 5 or 6 cores available at 3.2GHz with most games or API configs not utilizing all the available cores. The Switch, docked or undocked, only has 4x1.02GHz cores but a better GPU which safe to say is carrying most of what is there. The PS3 had an upper limit of 230 gflops while the Switch undocked is like 190~, and the docked mode only serves to increase performance to the effect of upping the resolution - not drastically changing the graphics. Since a switch game has to be fully playable in undocked handheld mode, the undocked 190~ gflop limit is the practical design ceiling.

If there was some extra way to bump up a PS3's graphics to 1080p for free much like the dock does for the Switch, and if the PS3 could support Vulkan, you'd find the now 1080p Vulkan PS3 more capable than the Switch in performance.

In other words, a game that tries for some heavy duty graphics via openGL rather than Vulkan on Switch will run worse than it would have on PS3 - or if a straight PS3 game was ported to Switch without vulkan optimization, it would run worse on the switch.

Those are just how many multiplications and additions can be handled per second by the GPU (And Terra stands for *1.000.000.000.000 so one trillion) FP 16 and FP 32 refers to the accuracy of those numbers. As you know, there is an infinite amount of numbers (if you only look at pi. It is infinite by itself. Which means, that no computer is ever able to store the full number.) FP 32 is a number format, that uses 32 bit (4 byte) per number. You basically have one bit that shows if the number is positive or negative. >Then you have two to the power of an 8 bit number (-127 to 127) and then you have 24 bits for some fraction.

Wii U didn't have Vulkan support so it evens out.

they could just as easily released a Wii U successor with Vulkan support though and rivaled xbone and ps4 graphical fidelity.

There's a lot Nintendo could have done with a next console and technically there is a lot they did with the switch, but the price of the Switch is fucking retardedly high for what you're getting when the vulkan API is making up for the signficantly lower hardware specs.

Nintendo is being awfully disingenuous and anti-consumerist with their Switch pricing and marketing in leading people to believe it's worth more than $199, virtually praying on what the average consumer doesn't understand about the importance of the emerging Vulkan.

"The argument against FP16 ALUs was lost from the start, however, as the improvement in game performance and benchmark results from a Series 6XT part (boosted in no small part by said FP16 ALUs) versus an otherwise similar Series 6 part with the same number of FP32 ALUs proved to be very real. FP32 ops performance obviously hasn't been much of a limiting factor.If the argument is that GPU designers who support a more flexible range of precisions that more optimally target the workloads of real apps are somehow holding app designers and the industry back, then... well, that's a ridiculous argument. By that logic, nVidia's lower competitive performance, efficiency, whatever is holding app designers back. Their inability to provide unconditional color blending accuracy and floating point Z precision like PowerVR does with its tile buffer is holding the industry back. Their architecture's inability to cope with overdraw as well as PowerVR is holding things back, etc. That kind of argument is ridiculous."

>"You have got it backwards. It is not a case of FP32 catching up to FP16, it is FP16 capabilities being enhanced. It is happening in PC graphics as well, witness AMDs Tonga and where Intel is going since Gen8. The reasons have been given before. All else being equal, FP16 operations take less power, requires less internal (and external) bandwidth, the hardware takes much less die area which for a given level of performance which lowers cost and improves yield which lowers cost again. Alternatively, for a given budget of die space and power draw, FP16 yields much better performance. Routinely using a compact numerical representation and only using larger formats when actually needed simply makes sense. Why waste limited resources?"

Gens don't need to be 8 years long, christ. Yes optimization gets better, but the power disparity becomes ridiculous. 4-5 years is a good amount for a refresh, and it keeps up with PC upgrade timelines.

sony has no shot next gen. Sites they bribed like Gamespot, Eurogaymer and IGN have almost zero influence this time around.

Sony tried their best to slander Nintendo and that shit failed. Switch still outselling ps4.

Sony and Microsoft are the only companies that didn't abandon their console this generation. Also Nintendo is not considered next generation. The Switch is two generations behind. The PS4 is outselling the Switch worldwide.

I can find many reasons to buy a scorpio over an Xbox one and a switch over a Wiiu but no worthwhile reasons to buy a pro over a ps4. Barely any games get support for it and they don't offer automatic downsampling or "boost mode" like the scorpio does. Digital foundry themselves said in their outlast 2 video that they're disappointed at this lack of support because even outlast 2 doesn't use checkerboarding or support downsampling at 1080p, something the scorpio will have built into its OS.
>>
>>376383713

Keep moving goalposts.

You're gonna need it after 2dsXL launches.

Ps4 has scorpio and switch problems to take care of.

>Ps4 has scorpio and switch problems to take care of.

This. Switch is already cutting ps4 sales in half. Can you imagine after Scorpio?
Wouldn't be shocked if sony only sells 3 mil from here to the end. Sony is an antique console now. No kid wants the old dusty weak console.

If you have a child, that child will be of a new generation regardless of whether or not that child is a complete and utter failure in comparison to all that you are and all that you have ever been at any point.

Generation in engineering has to do with iterations of production. Not performance or power.

The only thing said is that it shipped 20M over the fiscal year, the 60M still says sold
And you seriously expect after years of the 3DS's sales stagnating even after several new revisions and models that a new model will just magically cause sales to skyrocket? The PS4 managed to catch up to the 3DS even with the thing being cheaper and having over 2 years worth of a head start
And what the fuck are you huffing that makes you think the Scorpio is magically gonna pull sales out of its ass when the Xbone and S couldn't?

No one should have accepted it on the PS4 either.
It was like a huge kick in the balls to PS3 owners. Right after the PS3's best year yet.
Especially with the incredibly weak launch lineup of the PS4.

Why the world did people move over to the PS4 and take PS+ deep into their behinds? Doing so benefited no one.
>>
Switch
PSPRO
Scorpio

Switch will be as big as the Wii but not quite to their peak tho, if they continue this solid lineup they have the 9th gen on your own
Pokemon alone can save the Switch from its niche today
PSPRO will suffer trough the WiiU problem and will sell less as result
Scorpio will have mindblowing specs hindered by Micro$oft's kikery

Holy shit this Sonybro cocksucking
9th gen will be another PS3 like era until you make great games on the PSPRO
Is this what happens when you lost the 7th gen to Wii and DS by a light year?
Yeah you won the console war by a mile but PSVita is such a joke no western devs want to touch it and lost again to 3DS by a landslide
>>
>>376384440
You personally only have the choice of not buying in or buying in, there are a vast majority of casual core consumers that don't mind paying, and for Sony's sake there are a large group of consumers who like the idea of paying. Because of this large group of consumers you can't do anything to stop paid online, especially after you realise how cheap it is to run and how much money these companies get.

Here's a hint, it's more than what they get from third party royalties or first/second party game sales.

>>376385896
Hopefully, Microsoft pre Xbox actually released better games than Sony ever has.
>>
>scorpio and pro
>9th gen
they are gonna be playing the same fucking shit as the base consoles and nothing more, 9th gen my ass
>>
>>376363095

Switch is 7th gen though, it's the same power as a PS3.
>>
Speaking of paid online. Microsoft still sucks and the Xbox One is still completely redundant by the existence of PCs.

But it's pretty weird how Microsoft are probably the ones the most likely to drop paid online. Since there is a rift between PC players who have free online and Xbox players who have to pay fr the exact same thing for no good reason.

Of course. I am sure Microsoft would rather try to force paid online onto windows or something if they could. They would never give up paid online after all.
It would still be totally crazy if Microsoft who started it all would end up being the ones without paid online.
