I’m biased but I really think Nintendo might be the last one standing in the system market in 2/3 gens
Goes to show what a few good IPs and an all-star legal team can do for you lol
I think PlayStation will still be around for the more high end games since Nintendo consoles are usually underpowered. And exclusive games
I also can’t imagine Nintendo’s next console not being a mobile one so I think there’s definitely a market for a traditional stationary console.
Well, they’ve already announce that they’re just doing a slightly upgraded switch for their next console
They have??
No, they haven’t. https://lemmy.world/post/14770183
First off, that’s not Nintendo. That’s a third party controller manufacturer. Secondly, they’re basing that entirely off the specs they got for new controllers and docks. All that’s really confirmed by the article is that the next system will have a similar form factor with iteratively improved controllers and docks. Which is in the ‘fucking obvious’ category. Their speculation about the actual internal hardware specs was pulled straight from their ass.
Yeah I had a read up and there’s been almost nothing from Nintendo, so everything is educated guesses at best
