I have a personal theory that Playstation overprepared for Gen 8. After how Gen 7 exclusive push helped rescue them in PS3, they planned for a new war with the same strategy. Which is fair, and ultimately was the right one as exclusives are what sell and those games on top of the better price and sharing ease was what won Gen 8 over X-Box. However, they overestimated X-Box and put too much into their exclusives, while also having a fanbase that expected that level of work to be increased each time. So they are trapped in a cycle that gets them diminishing returns because they have to push these games harder each time in order to compete with something that never truly manifested.
The Democratic Nintendo fan....is that a paradox? I'm fond of one of the more conservative companies in the industry, but I vote Liberally and view myself that way 90% of the time?
