Fair enough. Any news on your PS4 games release dates?
Well this will be very interesting then if Microsoft chooses to do the opposite and launch this year. Either way this is great news for Switch sales, I suppose!
That was expected.
@Dulfite if MS launches this year there is a good chance Sony already have a backup plan to speed up launch (which I hope they don't use because that always open space for fuck ups). I would preffer MS releases the spec and price of their machine so Sony can adjust whatever needed to have a stronger and cheaper machine.

No, some insider said Sony 7nm chip will be available in Q3 2020 https://www.digitimes.com/news/a20190416PD205.html
7 years after the last one? No way!

Disappointing. This is going to hurt them. I am sensing hubris in general from Sony going into generation 9. A powerful console and a late release date. This is like the PS3 all over again. I guess they have to keep learning the hard way.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
My Bet With curl-6

Seems early but always possible. Not sure how this benefits Switch.
I doubt Sony really cares. They know when they are launching (regardless of whether this news is a bluff or not) and software development for both PS5 and PS4 will match up with that. They aren't going to rush a release just because MS might launch this year, something they have most likely taken into account. They still have TLoU2, a Kojima game, and GoT (if quality holds up): they are fine for the next 12 months quite easily. |
It benefits Nintendo to continue having the newest console on the market as long as possible. No matter how many slim or digital editions Sony/Microsoft come out with for their current line, it is still older than the Switch. If the ps5 and Xbox Two came out this fiscal year, it would harm Switch sales even if just slightly. Most people buy consoles based on the games they prefer, but there are still some out there that typically buy whatever the newest thing is, and this gives Nintendo one more fiscal year of being able to retain the title of the newest thing.

That didn't prevent MS to rush X360 launch about 1 year to get a leg up against PS3.

Most people were expecting PS5 at holidays 2020, because if PS5 were to launch this year they wouldn't skip E3.
Not sure why do you think it is a late release when you don't even know when Xb4 will launch.

So it seems my projection of holiday 2020 is looking to be even more and more plausible.
