Furthermore, as has already been discussed here, there simply isn't as much Xbox-centric news as there is PlayStation or Nintendo news. Xbox is down to a single platform, while PS and Nintendo currently have 2 platforms ont he market. Xbox recieves hardly any news from Japan, while PS and Nintendo platforms have a steady stream of releases. Big mixture of trying to keep discussion to a single thread for years and a barren period for news. Recipe for disaster. |
Well, all 3 campanies have "nation" threads. I think it's important to understand why the xbox fanbase decided to stay in one thread, many felt it was a toxic environment outside of it.
Again I don't expect them to match Sony or Nintendo but the level it's at is abysmal, even while accounting for those factors. Underrepresented no matter how you look at it really.
I mean, if your console of choice is treated like a joke and you feel like you can't even discuss your platform of choice in peace, wouldn't that make you at least think about sticking to one thread or leaving? I can hang with it, hell I've always posted outside the nation thread but your average poster that isn't heavily invested in the forum isn't going to stick around. How many new big regulars are there recently that have an xbox one? Not many if any
There's a lot more Wii U owners and Wii U talk than Xbox One, and no offense but that console isn't exactly Mr popular. The fanbase is just more chatty and is more embraced here. And that's something the Xbox community can do if there's a big enough effort on both ends.
