the sales of 3rd party was bad already at the start of the gen and just got worse. And even attach ratio for those 3rd party games were a lot inferior to X1 versions that for a long time had a lower userbase

But point is that 3rd party always sell bad on Nintendo platforms compared to PS/Xbox, so that isn't nothing new, what make 3rd abandoning so fast are terrible Wii U sales.

Well, I believe I can agree with you on it. Anyway, I do want Nintendo to sell good this new interation and pull enough 3rd party support to have a health environment for Nintendo 1st party, because I'll keep on PS4Pro or PS5 anyway but there are certainly experiences that only Nintendo pulls consistenly with quality.

Ok, whatever... keep talking to others like they are imbecile. You certainly won the argument.

But I'm only talking to you in the same manner you've spoken to me. Those with glass jaws shouldn't throw punches.

But since you got me here, I was thinking more about your wacky comparison of consoles to cars last night:

Yes... sure that is the reason no one look at car reviews before buying or look which is the best version of multiplats, people buy things on random.

I think I finally got what you were trying to get across. Think about it: how do the vast majority of people buy cars? Do they buy cars based on things like top speed and engine horsepower? No, most people buy cars based on price, fuel economy, and purpose (minivan for families, small economical car for a college student, etc.). They couldn't give two shits about how fast a $100,000 Ferrari can get. They need to know how much mileage they can squeeze out of a Prius between fill-ups compared to that used Toyota. The Ferrari crowd does exist, otherwise the Ferrari wouldn't exist, but unless you live in Beverly Hills, how many Ferraris do you see on the street on a normal day? That crowd is pretty niche.

Consoles are the same way. The majority of people buying them aren't doing so based on pure horsepower. Up until the PS4, which is the market leader for completely different reasons that I know you have read already because you seem wont to hang off my nutsack lately, the strongest console of a generation has never been the best seller.

Hey Don, thanks for helping me out with a great example! I don't care what anybody else says, you're a cool cat.

Don't remember calling you an idiot or anything alike or saying to others that they shouldn't behave like you basically putting your name as synonymous with cursing. But perhaps you can show where I done it, because you have done it in basically all posts you answered me.

On the car comparison. You aren't wrong that buyers will survey the cars and compare them to their needs, so at least you rectified yourself on that, because you wanting or not people will do similar things to console on a smaller degree. They may not put power as the only important mark, but considering that in cars you were separing classes and that in consoles it's quite different since their price range, power and library is quite similar so every little thing counts. So yes, power will be one factor (the consumer may not know it's the most powerfull, but every outlet will say which multiplat version is better or which console is stronger), the othe will be library and considering X1 focus on FPS and PS4 being more well round and Nintendo for as most as fans says they get the best library in the world only a small amount agree when taking the sales.
