Before the first direct of the year, we didnt know about smash, mario party, pokemon(neither lets go neither new gen), hyrule warriors, DKCTF, dark souls, diablo, fortnite, civilization.
If follows the same for this year, we will have plenty of games to be announced beyond all we already know: like pokemon AC, luigis, yoshi, deus x machina, mk11, marvel aliance 3, town, doom eternal.
For me, just release a direct that show as may games as last year directs and switch will carry its momentum the entire year.

No problem and no need to discuss if you were or not, as you said it wasn't your intention and that is enough to me.

And yes both are on the brink of either having a price cut or sales level being lower than what they should be (they certainly are below what they could be with the cuts).

Ok, glad we could come to an understanding then  

I personally kind of think that the price cut for Switch will come in the form of a mini releasing around late Q2/early Q3. Not sure about the PS4 though ... 

As the other guy said you are a fine poster so no biggie =´]

PS4 is due to a real slim PS4 and slim Pro, but considering how much it sold and what is expected to sell from now on it may never see it.

And yes same or smaller form factor (it is a little big for a portable) with equal or bigger screen on a smaller entry price would be good. And they could save space and cost with a full HH with the controls "fused" to the body as well.

No?

Ironically I think you are interpreting stuff from my comment I didn't say. All I was saying is that both consoles are overdue for a cut. I didn't say kero said otherwise. I did however say it was an excuse, but thats mostly because it could be said about both of them. If its only said about one console it makes it sound like its doing great despite the constraints. When really both have the same constraint. It's called a clarification. Someone said something, I clarified something. Doesn't mean I was arguing against something someone didn't say. Just adding to what was already said. 

It seems more like several other weeks when someone either complimented PS4 doing great on holidays (by not being that far behind and all) but someone needed to point out that Switch should be receiving props because it was selling incredible. When it was very much expected to do those great numbers, and praising one doesn't remove the other if don't praise it as well.

He and no one was giving excuses, they were stating a fact, for a 6 year with that price and so long without a cut PS4 is doing good. So your comment seemed like a strawman because no one was arguing anything regarding Switch or even using price as an excuse, it was just pointing out on what is expected and achieved.

Praising PS4 when Switch is the leader doesn't mean you're a Switch hater

Praising Switch when PS4 is the leader doesn't mean you're a PS4 hater

Like everywhere else on the internet, people must chill



God bless You.

My Total Sales prediction for PS4 by the end of 2021: 110m+

When PS4 will hit 100m consoles sold: Before Christmas 2019
