Nah, Sony is a paper tiger.

They keep selling PS4's at a ludicrously low price to try and get them into as many homes as possible, and then no one actually buys games for them.

Their consoles are being propped up by the big third parties which, of course, are getting noticeably worse and worse every years. Remember Mass Effect Andromeda, and how that was TOTALLY going to be one of the best selling games of the year? It completely bombed.

The Switch audience actually buys games.

You're kidding right? As someone who owns both a Switch and a PS4, I own like 20 games on the PS4 while I only own Zelda on the switch. Guess which one hasn't been turned on in a month and a half?

Needless to say, PS4 just has me coming back to it for the variety of games it offers. While I like MK8 and games like Arms look neat, they don't look worth the $60 price tag.

It's because Sony fans constantly shit post about sales to the point where it's impossible to take seriously. Especially since they ignore how badly the Vita, PSVR, and PS Now are doing.

PS4 is really Sony's last frontier, and that is going to be destroyed by the Switch in the long run.

But at the same time a console that’s been out for nearly 4 years still outsells it, honeymoon phase is way gone for PS4 but Switch is still in it.

Glad to see Based Europe and Japan still buying Vitas

And I love my XBO for what it is, but seeing the Japanese sales make me laugh so damn hard.

Fucking what?

Nintendo fanboys are delusional.

They will never recreate Wii sales which is the switch’s only hope in surpassing ps4. Ps4 still probably has a good 20 million in it.

Switch will probably be lucky to hit 40 million lifetime.

Because Nintendo will stop producing games a couple years in like they always do, they don’t have the casual audience, and they don’t have third parties so people that play FIFA (real fifa) and call of duty won’t buy it.

Do you think the PS4 can hit 70M by the end of the year? I predicted Days Gone would be their holiday title, but now I think Spider-Man might just be early 2018. Not to mention God of War in March, which will move units. Either God of War helps Sony reach 70M by April-June, then Spider-Man around that time frame.

That or Spider-Man might be the holiday 2018 title.

The PS4 has sold 60 million consoles.
The Switch has sold like 3 million.

Try almost 55 million more.
Also I doubt the Switch tops 30 million lifetime sales. Yes the Xbone will outsell it in the long run.

The mod here is a Nintendo fag.
When the PS4 and Xbone both launched we didn't get a sticky for either launch.
Meanwhile every single Nintendo direct got a sticky during that same timeframe. Also the Wiiu launch got a sticky.

I basically said the same thing as you.

I’m sure ps4 will hit at least 80 as sales don’t seem to slow down much.

And yeah I was being generous with the switch sales. The WiiU hit what? Like 10-12? I’m sure Switch can double that if Nintendo supports it.
>>
>>383271743
Nintendo fags literally do the same shit. During the Wii years all you saw were sales threads. Even the first 2 months of the Switch you saw tons of sales threads because it was outselling the PS4. Now sales threads are bad because the PS4 is crushing the Switch. Trust me once the Switch outsells the PS4 again you will see dozens of threads highlight it.

It’s sold 3 million in the honeymoon phase, I’m sure this will pick up later this year when supply increases and Mario comes out.

So it’s been out 4 months, less then a million a month. 5 months lef in the year but with Black Friday and Christmas so I’m gonna say 10 by the end of the fiscal year.

Nintendo consoles lose support after around what? Year 4? I think 55 is pushing it, between 30 and the 40 I said is more reasonable.

Also Vita is doing alright in Japan, and PSVR is the best selling VR headset on the market, dumb ass.

I like how you say Vita is a flop despite outselling and outliving the Wii U. The PS4 is slated to outsell the 3DS by the end of the year, and Switch can barely hold up 200K in its first four months, and is getting beat up by a four year old console.

You're delusional if you think the Switch will ever beat the PS4. Sony has too much of a lead and market dominance for that to ever happen.

Honestly, Microsoft made a really smart move when they released the XBox. They don't even care about the international market. They just knew two things:
>that Japan basically had a monopoly on video games
>that Americans will buy anything as long as it's 100% American (this is also why iPhones are popular)
So they released the Xbox and made mad money. The fact that people overseas bought a few Xboxs is just the cherry on top of the ice cream.
Nowadays the Xbox is selling less and less, but that's because instead of going the safe route (making a video game console), they went a risky route and fucked it up (making an NSA machine to spy on every American citizen, and also you can play games on it)

Japan is one of the largest game producing counties on the planet, and they typically make games only for the best seller. For 20 years it has been Sony's consoles. Japan makes games like Resident Evil, Metal Gear, Yakuza, Project Diva, Dark Souls, Final Fantasy, Ace Combat, Persona, and Sonic to name a few. And with the sole exception of Sonic, none of those games have consistsently shown up on Nintendo's consoles, but Sony always gets them. Japan should be treated as a game producer, and everyone knows a console is defined by its games. That is why Japan is so extremely important. That's why Microsoft was so adamant on getting Japanese developers to make games for their systems.

It's becoming increasingly apparent that Nintendo fan boys despise competition. It absolutely boils their blood.

They cherry pick regions, jerk off to pre-order numbers, and ignore sales numbers. If they had it their way the only console on the market would be the Nintendo Switch and SNES mini. Nintendbros are sore losers.

Always something with Nintendo babies. When the Wii as at its peak mainstream was good. 100M people had good taste. When the Wii U began tanking, they argued it was good that normies and casuals weren't buying it like Xbox or PS. Right now its too early to determine where the Switch stands. It's almost a mixture of the two.

How is it not? It's not like it even has any real competition this gen.

Xbox doesn't really have exclusives as everything is also avalible on Windows 10, which runs it better.

Switch has one game that is also avalible on the Wii U

Nintendo fans are the only ones who argue, and they'd argue nintendo winning the gen even if all they did was re-release the SNES. They are notorious for worshipping daddy nintendo like a god.

Fucking embarrassing for Shitendo. Glad to see the larger gaming community on /v/ being redpilled to the face that the Shitch will be another WiiU level disaster. No games and selling like hot pigshit. It's a bomb, plain and simple.

The switch is a complete waste of money and will continue to be a complete waste of money for at least the remainder of 2017, but fuck off back to /pol/

we already know Nintendo is stockpiling Switches in order to keep up with demand for their major releases.

Switch will outsell Ps4 again once Splatoon 2 is released and they increase supply.

>PS4 software sales, led by critically acclaimed titles such as Horizon: Zero Dawn, also remain strong with more than 487.8 million copies*2 sold at retail stores globally and through digital downloads on PlayStation®Store as of June 11, 2017.

There's a reason Nintendos stock value is the highest in 7-years and that they surpassed Sony in market capitalization. Can you guess what that reason is?

>>383282539
Last gen was pretty much a tie between MS and Sony, but MS was selling the lion's share of the software because everyone was buying multiplats on there. Which makes sense because on average they looked and ran better. Most 360 games were 720p at 30fps locked while their PS3 counterparts were 540p-640p at an unlocked and unstable 20-30fps.
This gen Sony is the leader by at least a 2:1 margin, and they're the ones with the high software sale amounts instead of MS.

Not even blaming the developers on that one, games running bad on PS3 was entirely on Sony and their weird, hard to code for architecture. 360 being the leader in software last gen was entirely an extension of poor running PS3 games.

It sells out in Japan and USA all the time even 3 months after launch. All it needs.

I don't know? Anyway stop saying is sells great when gets outsold by 100% by 4 year old console though.
>>
>>383277983
They can be wrong too, but in this case is because it has the best games AND also has normalfagcore games like sport shit and other multiplats, it isn't a gimmick machine and now that paid online is a thing for nintendo they lost any advantage related to multiplayer.

>>383286497
Of course it gets outsold, it has massive supply issues.

Sony offers a console that is:
>cheap
>more powerful than competition
>has the best and most exclusives
>plays every single third party game out there and they run better on their console as well
>is the focus of every dev in the industry and even in multiplats it has exclusive content
>satisfies the broadest range of tastes, from hardcore waifufag weeb to murikan dudebro, everyone finds a place

Microsoft offers a console that:
>has tried and failed miserably to integrate a forgotten gimmick (kinect) nobody cares about into its core experience
>is more expensive than competition while being weaker
>has literally no exclusives aside from has-been shit like Halo whose online was botched for the longest time
>has already made clear they won't have exclusives anymore
>runs multiplats worse
>gets shafted in every big multiplat game by missing out on content and is treated like a second rate citizen (i.e. Destiny, CoD and some of the others best selling multiplats)
>zero japanese support whatsoever
>tries to fill the exact same spot as Sony offering substantialy less by sating only the murikan dudebro market, which Sony also does better while not forsaking the other niches. It basically has no reason to exist

Nintendo offers a console that:
>is substantially less powerful than consoles that came out 4 years ago and were already nothing to write home about then
>focuses on gimmicks
>has pre-historic and bloated online system
>is a hassle to develop for due to the huge power disparity AND the fact that devs need to account for both docked and undocked modes
>has garbage shoddy build quality
>gets one so-so nintendo game once in a blue moon and nothing else in-between
>has its mains appeal (Zelda) already fully playable on PC for free with much better performance and visuals and it's only getting better

I mean, it's pretty obvious.

Nintendo charges more for less. Fans eat it up and try to justify the pricing by calling people poor. It's not like most people can't afford the Switch, it's more like they're not dumb enough to drop 300 bones for a console at launch w/less features.

I think they're kinda angry that they spent $300 on a paper weight with no games.
>>
Sony as a company is dead, gaming as a business is dying and the PS4 is selling at a loss and not making any money. All their ventures have been massive failures like PSVR, Vita and PSNOW.

There wont be a PS5, Sony cannot afford another gaming disaster and will leave the gaming business. This is a fact and there's nothing anyone can do.

>I think they're kinda angry that they spent $300 on a paper weight with no games.

It's called overcompensation by post-purchase rationalization. I mean, this >>383290845 is fairly recent. The nintendo fans on this board are extremely obnoxious because they are always trying to broadcast their delusions to others in hopes that they end up convincing themselves that they haven't bought a turd.

If you went by their word, you have believed that the Wii U was gonna dominate the gen unrivaled and that there wouldn't even be a PS4 with those hourly "And with these 5 steps I'm gonna prove to you there won't be a PS4". Then the thing came out, sold 1 million units in the first 24 hours and completely destroyed the foundation of their delusions.

>gaming as a business is dying

Yeah, that explains why it has overtaken Hollywood in profitability years ago and is a 100 billion dollars per year business, alright.

>There wont be a PS5

Okay mate, let me hear your explanation as to what makes a game a good exclusive, or a good game in general.

>If it's based on sales, then guess what? Not a single console can compete against games like Minecraft, which have a 150 million strong userbase.
>if it's based on metacritic, then you can't say sony has no games since games like TLOU and Uncharted have a 90+, and games like MLB: The Show have a higher metacritic than even BOTW
>if it's based on your personal opinion, then why should I share it?
