Uh? PS and XB users are used to downgraded graphics... or else they would go for PC and juice it up to get the max performance

I'm fine with PS/Xbox chasing better graphics while Nintendo just focuses on the games. I have fun with both approaches and have more than enough to play between consoles.

Every time I see brand new releases at 70€, I wonder why people ever buy day one stuff. Videogames drop in price so fast, even retail ones, it's always better to wait. Much more so for digital.

Except for Nintendo games, you can buy a game at launch and 7yrs later its still at full price lol

I know time to time Nintendo will have a sale but its limited then the price goes back up, it never just drops and stays dropped.

Switch games are perpetually expensive. I really don't get why people say Nintendo develop affordable systems when their games never drop the price

Gonna have to ask 99% of people to upgrade their TVs to take advantage of that. Less than 1% have VRR. I had one but the damn thing gave out, decided no game is gonna try to exceed 60 in the next decade so just went back to 60 hz. 

According to this article

https://www.cnet.com/tech/gaming/exclusive-hands-on-i-played-sonys-all-new-ps5-pro/#google_vignette

TVs with VRR that can range from 40 to 120 fps are going to work with the PS5 Pro, Cerny adds, because games will automatically get frame rate improvements without an upgrade patch. Dedicated 120 fps modes will come too. Cerny said over 25% of PS5 owners own 120 fps-capable TVs, while around 1 in 10 PS5 players have variable refresh rate TVs.

Surprised me as well, but I guess a lot of modern TVs have 120 hz panels and HDMI 2.1 supports 120fps input.

With the extra boost to PS4 games, you'll need the PS5 Pro to play PS4 games at 120 fps ;)

I'm fine with 30, RT modes look interesting, but I'll stick with VR anyway.

Are you sure its not the other way around? I thought for sure VRR ould be more common than 120hz.
Or is this like VRR TV's also at 120hz ?

You know the rules of the internet; Nintendo gets a free pass at everything and nobody is allowed to talk negatively about them.

You do tend to get a pass when you have the two best single player video game franchises in Mario and Zelda.

You'll have to ask Cerny, that's a quote from an interview posted by cnet (the link)

I guess PSVR2 headsets are included since they can be used for 120fps game modes.

120fps also works with HDMI 2.0, VRR only with HDMI 2.1
That would explain how there are more 120hz capable TVs out there than VRR capable.

I don't believe those numbers.

@ IcaroRibeiro This comment right here is what I'm talking about.

Rapsuperstar31 you've proven my point. Many people put Nintendo on a pedestal way above MS & Sony that feels Nintendo can do no wrong. No company should get free passes.

If Sony or Microsoft make games as consistently fun as Mario and Zelda I will give them a pass as well.   I do love plenty of Sony franchises and a few Microsoft franchises from Bethesda.
