Game development costs a lot of money, the costs of development are way higher than 15 years ago, yet the number of consoles sold is basically static overall. When your game development cost is triple/quadruple what it was years ago, and the development time of these games is now also like 4-9 years instead of 2-3 years (longer dev time = longer amount of time you have to wait to see any return on investment), the console numbers aren't good enough. |
The hardware console will market will shrink and eventually they will all sell games on PC day one. Think about this graphics upgrades have been the main reason handhelds and consoles were hyped since forever once that's over, people upgrading is gonna slow down, even now the biggest reason for wanting switch 2 is a graphic upgrade, and switch 3 will just probably be able to run games at 60fps instead of 30fps and with a little screen no one will see the difference, and if nintendo keep games at good budget switch 2 hardware will more then enough to do what they want, and if they release a pro look out cause the switch 3 might come out in 13 years lol.
