Even though I fucking hate nintendofags, nintendo is has the best future ahead of it. Trumps 25% tax will definitely skip Japan, a staunch US ally against China.
The worst news PC has is Epic, which can get pirated to hell and back. Looks like PC will win 2020 guys.
The biggest threat PC gaming faces is Microsoft itself. They're going to be more than willing to sacrifice PC gaming as we know it if it sells more Xbox games through their store. Trump's tarrifs could also negatively impact sales of PC gaming hardware, leading to a stagnation, or worse encouraging people to play games streamed to less capable devices.
PC games haven't been relevant outside of some competitive games that even a toaster could run. Call me when you guys gets some games that aren't city builders or isometric RPGs
If the tariff happens, which may or may not, i'd expect to see features trimmed to keep the price point at $399-499 range. I think Sony and MS, after early flopping with ps3 and xb1+ kinect have learned that 399-499 price range is as far as things can be stretched for consumer acceptance. people werent exactly wild over 3DOs consoles at like $700.
Also, if you adjust for inflation, games that were $60 in the xbox 360/ps3 gen (~2005) should be selling $70 now. The reality is game prices have been remarkably stagnant and not followed inflation. i wouldnt be surprised if a drop in Loot box bucks is followed by an across the board price hike to get more dollars/unit
>i'd expect to see features trimmed to keep the price point at $399-499 range The problem then is what would the new systems offer over the old systems? Everything in consoles these days is embedded into a single chip, so the only features they could drop would be the CPU and GPU features that come from using an older SOC.
>Games will be way more expensive because lootboxes are going to be banned The "games need micro transaction to make money" is fucking bullshit and been proven many time that company can make a profit without micro transaction, and even if games do need micro transaction, its can affect PC as well >PS5 is projected to be around 500 dollars on launch The PS5's prices will decrease in a year or so, just like how expensive GPU now will become more cheaper in later years and also console have been expensive ever since the Atari days (if you count inflation) and console are still relevant today

I mean nintendo shipped the 3ds without a charger, so theres probably room for that level of dickishness. "Yeah xbox one controllers are compatible, just use your old one!"
More likely they'd either crank up the price on psn/xbox live, or use some corporate inversion or loophole so it isnt counted as a chinese import. "We didnt ship it from China, we shipped it from Sony Taiwan (which is a warehouse that recieves shipping from a Chinese cargo vessel) and all they do is slap the warranty stickers on to call it 'assembled'" that sorta thing.

>The "games need micro transaction to make money" is fucking bullshit and been proven many time that company can make a profit without micro transaction, and even if games do need micro transaction, its can affect PC as well They will use the excuse anyway, and console fags are too stupid not to buy. >The PS5's prices will decrease in a year or so, just like how expensive GPU now will become more cheaper in later years and also console have been expensive ever since the Atari days (if you count inflation) and console are still relevant today While true, consolefags will still buy it for full price on launch and get royally fucked in the process. Still hilarious.
We have literally 90% of the console games. You have maybe 2-3 exclusives we haven't managed to eat yet.

You're probably right. I really dont get how a company like Sony can sell 95 million PS4s and still talk about losing money and being in the red
