It's a closed system that is one of the most widely used OS' in the world. So how "closed" is it really, lol. It's not like it's some niche OS, Apple has roared back in the US especially and taken back nearly 60% of the smartphone market and completely dominate teenagers and college age consumers especially, Android has been taking it on the chin for a while, and Windows phones ... welp.
If Apple really wanted to, they could roast the Sony PlayStation, don't kid yourself. They're not a clumsy company like Microsoft is that's been coasting on the success of Windows for like 30 years now (Microsoft Zune? failed. Microsoft XBox? Lots of money spent for 3rd place thus far. Microsoft Phone OS? Failed. Buying Skype? Massive Fail.) Meanwhile Apple ... iPod? Revolutionized the music industry, huge success. iPhone? Arguably the most important and successful consumer electronics product of the last 20+ years. iPad? Big success. Air Pods? Big success. Apple Watch? Pretty big success I would say, shipped almost 60 million in 2021.
And Sony lets not even start. Aside from getting lucky that Nintendo didn't use CD-ROM for N64 and stealing their 3rd party support with pay-offs, the last big thing Sony did is like the Walkman from the 1980s?

Among all the crazy and insane stuff that has been said in the last ten days or so, this one takes the cake.

Agreed. I'm going to sell my ps5 with RE2, 3, 4, 7 and 8 so I can buy Apple at 2-3x the price to rebuy the games I already own while also losing access to ratchet, spider, last, uncharted, demon, sack, Horizon, God of War, etc. Lol, makes perfect sense! Day 1 for sure!!!
