Nvidia's main business isn't even selling over priced graphics GPUs to dummies for $1500 so they can play video games. Someone might want to tell this crowd that the crypto boom is over and really they're being ripped off at those prices being kept artificially high. It's like a grocery store that's selling a bag of chips for $4 because they got away with doing that during the pandemic, but now they're not bringing the cost down even though the pandemic is long over. Their stock price is that high entirely because of A.I. speculation much like the dot com bubble of the 2000s, the 40 series didn't have the greatest sales. Game budgets are at their ceiling as is if they are going to "push boundaries" it's not going to be within the context of doubling, tripling budgets even further from where they are today. Playstation's own former president (Scott Layden) who was their president for like 14 years has said that. Several times. This is the guy that oversaw Sony and pushed for blockbuster single player titles like Uncharted to begin with saying this, lol. Their own internal documentation says going over $350 million is a killer. You can do the math from their own internal sales data and it shows even at 20 million sold, at a budget of say $400 million you are barely making a profit. $500, $600 million budgets are simply not realistic, it's not a matter of opinion, it's is cold hard math. I take Sony's own word and their own data sets over "one of three random posters on VGChartz". |
