| Soundwave said: I'm talking new next-gen titles that people actually care about. The PS4-XB1 are going to have an overwhelmingly advantage. As in we're talking like both of their libraries will be well past several thousand games by then. You don't think the average consumer will notice that? |
It's a hugely incorrect assumption to think that people won't care about those games. People don't buy PCs because of new games. They buy because of old games. You get steam because it's a legacy platform of old any new games that transend generations. The only reason consoles have had to depend only on new games to sell hardware is because there was no streamlined way to play older games at launch. That won't be an issue when the NX launches with a preliminary steam-like library of eshop games from the get go.
I think the average consumer hasn't bought the Wii U and will see most of those games as new games they don't have access to yet and will gladly jump on board because they aren't Wii U games anymore, they're simply eshop games. The line of thinking will be the same as buying into Steam after you made the jump to PC.
