| RolStoppable said: Switch is the future for consoles. Consumers prefer laptops and tablets over desktop PCs, so it only makes sense for consoles to follow this trend. It's why Nintendo is well-positioned for the future, because they are already there. Microsoft isn't going to care because they are decentralizing Xbox and moving towards games as a service. Sony is the company that will have to think hard how they go about things because they are reliant on AAA third party software, but said software publishers aren't going to be satisfied with the technological limitations that portability brings with it; stick with stationary home consoles to secure support, go the Switch route with reduced support or try to juggle a home console and a hybrid. Needless to say, the last option constitutes a major disadvantage because Nintendo won't have any problems to fend off a halfbaked Sony solution. |
I think switch is an excellent concept for consoles moving foraward, but I definitely think games a service is the future.....
PS NOW and Xbox play anywhere are going to take off as streaming becomes better and better
