I always found it cool how Nintendo always had something in the fray to help soften the blow and remain competitive. When the GameCube was struggling, the DS was there to pick up the slack. When the Wii sank like a stone, the 3DS was there. And when the 3DS finally ran out of steam, here comes Nintendo Switch.

The craziest thing about the console market is that nowadays there are really only 3 products Switch, PlayStation and Xbox and each of them with a by-product. There's no room for anything else, there's just the Steamdeck over there in the corner and maybe the Rog Alli, but they're not really new products.

[@FBl]

It’s because the cost of everything has ballooned in the last two decades and you have to sell your console at a loss for the first few months or even years. I heard that Microsoft is still selling the Xbox SX at a $100 loss so they reduced the SX production and now it’s harder to find Xbox SX in stores.

Switch has now almost 130m in just 6 years and 3 months! It took PS2 eleven years to pass 150m. So that means that Switch is outpacing PS2 by lightyears.

It’s kind of weird that Xbox isn’t popular in Japan. I mean Japanese people prefer IPhones over Sony phones. And prefer Apple computers in places that can afford them. The PlayStation uses American software and American games. So what’s wrong with Xbox?

[@The400iq]

Sony and Nintendo are Japanese companies

[@RejHiman]

TLDR, Xbox approaching JP market with American mindset imaginable which either result in doubt, skeptic, and outright humiliating. 1, Xbox is pretty much thought as "invader" in JP market since they already had Sony and Nintendo which is local brand that they support. 2. Historically bad move they ever made is they release first XBOX side by side with PS2 of all console they had to compete. That alone is pretty much bad move knowing PS2 made a record sale that still stand today, making them fell off from JP market just like that. 3. The console and the controller size is waste of space. JP houses mainly a minimalist and that's a no-go that is until XBOX 360 come into play but the stigma of being large console still remain 4. Whatever library they had, PS already has it. Buying two consoles is not a common thing in JP. 5. Their first party game cater to western market solely which result in none of it pick JP market who interest is vastly varied from JRPG, all the way to Visual Novel and collecting games you can can name of. 6. Since PS and Nintendo is their local brand, they're most likely cheaper than imported XBOX to buy anyway 7. Their approach to JP game dev and publisher is very poor which lead them to lose exclusive release of Resident Evil 4 to GameCube and Final Fantasy 11 to Sony. The only time they got the big score is from SEGA but that's because they close their door on gaming console market after Dreamcast low sales, not because interest in XBOX. Lastly... 8. Even before the XBOX email leak year ago, XBOX did try to acquire Nintendo back then, while completely ignoring the fact they're just a new kid on console market at the time. Numerous outlet said they were laughed at by the whole board of Nintendo, but it also serve stigma that XBOX never wanting to invest in JP creative development; they just want easy way out for cash by having JP dev team on their brand. Compare it to Sony who literally spent time making first party developer that still hold to this day, XBOX approach to wave money at you for the sake of having you instead of investing in your idea is outright insulting, especially in JP where they really push the creativity off the chart. So yeah, XBOX pull a Henry Ford move on JP. And its not very effective.

PS2 has some amazing exclusive Japanese games. Sony should get the publishing rights for and revive those franchises.

[@kitajecafrica5814]

This wont happened for simple matter that these games are not profitable enough. They've already shut down Japan Studios who made them those kind of games like Gravity Rush . Currently in Japan only Nintendo matters and Playstation or Xbox are almost non existent there. Majority of Japanese gamers also hate the new route which Final Fantasy XVI took.

Sony PlayStation is USA based now. So no, it wont do

[@MortalDeathGaming]

I love how you can see certain trends in console sales with huge games. Was looking at the switch in Sept/Oct 2019 with the release of Pokemon Sword/Shield. One of the few games that people will buy a console for. Sure Halo at times was that for Halo as well

Sega Dreamcast is underrated. It would've kicked PS2 ass because it had better graphics than the PS2. For example: MvC2, RE Code Veronica, Grandia 2, SF Alpha 3, Guilty Gear X, and SF 3rd Strike on the DC were the better versions than the PS2 version.

[@justinsm]

But it have the least sold even less than the Wii u. One of Nintendo's biggest failures.

[@ViciousAlienKlown]

Just because it sold poorly doesn't make it terrible console. The Dreamcast IS an awesome that only survived 2 years on the market. Sega's financial troubles didn't help. Great system.

[@SlainByTheWire]

It wasn't going to win. I had a Dreamcast, I loved it, but you gotta be realistic. The PS2 could practically play its entire back catalogue and it was everyone's first DVD player. How do you compete against that?

[@nwo2cool]

@@SlainByTheWire Also, the PS2 is backward compatible to PSX.

[@daedalus547]

Graphics don't really make a console, switch beats out the PS5 so far and their not even on the same level. What makes a console is the games, always will, the Dreamcast had some awesome games, but the PS2's library is a god tier level library. It's just not comparable.

[@toto_rf95]

The Switch on a tech level isn't all that, but if you look at its full first party library... it just makes you want to get a Switch. And that it's portable is really cool. The PS2 was just the GOAT, not as many first party games as the Switch but it was fully backwards compatible with the PS1 which had a great library as well and it could also play DVDs which at the time was a big deal. The DS appealed to non gamers as well as gamers, my little sister had one of those and she didn't even know what a GameCube was.
