Sony is right, every indie or niche game eventually arrives to PlayStation so meh

>too big to fail
where did I hear this before

I hope this bites them in the ass REALLY hard.

I would be absolutely stunned if I found out even ONE of the people who spend all their time online complaining about videogame censorship had an actual job.

Sony has been the dominant gaming force in the last gaming decades

PSX 100 million
PS2 158 million
PS3 ~88 million
PS4 97 million

The PlayStation brand is extremely powerful, of course, no one is going to ignore them.

sounds literally like typical american sjws. theyll only allow sjw garbage like marvel comics to get there.

Except they received most games too late on the PS3
The issue is that this shit seems to go in cycles: console maker becomes big, assumes that their momentum from one generation will carry into the next so they don't bother trying to actively keep support strong. Which results in weak third party support and then that same console maker going overboard in the next generation.
>PS2: Strong support
>Xbox: middling support
>PS3: weak support
>360: strong support
>PS4: strong support
>Xbone: weak support

They will still release on ps, system is too big to be ignored
Indies can do fuck all to them

>799 US
>No backwards compatibility of any kind
>Dumbass censorship.
>Some dome gimmick built in to justify the price
Folks are gonna flock back to the Xbox next gen aren't they?

>Folks are gonna flock back to the Xbox next gen aren't they?
Nope

They are right in a sense that publishers can't be stupid and will bend over to have a game there.

At same time, vita is offically dead and publishers have nowhere to run aside switch.

>Pattern fag

Sony will still get all the indie and niche games because they are default platform for those kind of games, sure, it's kinda bad that Sony isn't giving them proper attention but AAA games are what sells consoles these days.

Maybe if they can get their fuckin UI together and get some good exclusives

I've never bought an indie game on console.

...

I doubt this would kill them but I am curius on how mutch damage it will inflict before they backpedal

Good, everyone wins when Sony goes full tyrannic.

Wii

Wii U happened then

Suits can't ignore due peer pressure, so devs going be forced to churn game there even if means multiplat. At same time, Sony is trying much as they can fuck over smaller devs while putting focus on AAA ones.

Indies mean shit since their games get ported everywhere. But PS4 didn't had a big catalog of games compared to past consoles and games only started pop very late into gen. Fucking over small devs is stupid because those games add up with time.

Game development time got bigger, acting holier than thou and look down upon small or even mid size games is utter stupid at this point.

Good indie shitters can fuck thenselves. Long live Tripple A I welcome 6th gen early 7th gen

The only part of the world where I see this costing them is Japan, and the PS4 has already lost there despite still being on top.

What causes the soulless suits at the top of these companies to lose any level of long term planning?
Every single fucking one of them fucks themselves in the long term for the possibility of maybe seeing short term profit.

After moving to California it's clear that they don't care about japan that much anymore.

Is this about indie games or weeb games?

You may not like the statement, but it isn't wrong. Developers would be stupid not to put their games on PlayStation.

the market for softcore porn weeb games isn't as big as you think it is

>waaaah ps4 is a fifa station

no shit, all the top sellers on all platforms are fucking sad

The only exception being nintendo but they literally have drought spells so bad that the only thing to do is to buy the nintendo release.

See early PS3 dumbass
They made it a mess to program in because they thought developers could not ignore them but they did

360 and Wii outsold the ps3
1. Wii
2. 360
3. Ps3
Just admit defeat

Indie, AA, weeb, etc. Basically, Sony said that how they're no longer supporting these smaller devs as they're shifting exclusively to AAA and parternships with bigger publishers.

Money, long term takes too long to make profit, make profit NOW NOW NOW

Both.

PS3 outsold the 360.

Japanese things can't be weeb.

Xbox is on that toxic masculinity tranny pride shit, I'm sticking with pc and switch.

It's funny because early in the PS4's life people laughed at indies and AA shit. Now Sony says they're doubling down on AAA, yet people still try and spin this like a bad thing.

Fun fact: sociopaths are damn near incapable of long term planning. Most corporate suits show many signs of sociopathy, such as
>concern only for self
>a willingness to step on others to get ahead
>very personal profit minded
>compulsive liars to those they speak to (consumers) because they have something the suit wants (money/sales)
>will set their compatriots up for failure if it makes them look good

Xbox has never outsold Playstation and for a while, there were more PS2s sold than every Xbox combined.

Once again, their arrogance is going to come back and bite them in the ass

You now remember State of Play

And everyone thinks this is the road to success.

Riverbond is ok.

Can I save this pic?

They have been treating smaller devs like shit since forever, only reason that people sticks around is due sale numbers and sometimes because its cheaper.

Nobody remember SCEA anti 2d policy or forcing dub on games with voice acting for example.

But user, you get for widgets for less! What more can you want?

PS5 will be a bigger success than the PS4
Keep coping nincels

Yes

With Master Chief still and will always be the min character of Halo, Xbox will always have masculinity. Meanwhile, I expect Sony to kill off Kraos in the next GOW game.

I mean it kind of is.
The top CEOs are borderline invincible and can do anything they want at any time.

It’ll be like PS3, wheee they backtrack
>H-here take your lolis, just give us some money
Don’t people remember when analysts were saying Sony didn’t have enough money to design a PS4 because they lost so much with PS3?

Loving the double standards of Yea Forums

>PS4 is launched, support Indies

LOL Sony love Indies no games

>PS5 is launching, supporting bigger games

Fucking Sony, they don't care for smaller games, they're arrogant

Don't forget the rumors that the PS5 is going to cost $600. Again. They seriously don't fucking learn. How can one company be so inept.

It's going to be the PS3 all over again.

The lesson is: sony is shit no matter what, now go buy a decent PC instead of wasting $600 on a movie machine

no that's PC.

This. You can make a PC for the same price that'll be more powerful than the next few console generations. Plus, you can bypass censorship bullshit with mods

>indie and niche games because they are default platform for those kind of games

Indies are on pc and niche games generally land on handhelds.

Both true, the PS4 still has little to no games and Sony is now actively strangling the studios that put out actual games, just like Nintendo was when they managed to enter the industry.

Arrogant Sony is back, PS5 will be another PS3. MS has been building up for next gen while Sony has been sitting on their asses being arrogant again.

Lol no one cares about indies and they're all on the ps store anyway

Why do you people want Sony to fail so much? They're the only good company in gaming

>PS2 158 million
damn, too bad none of their future consoles will probably the top the sales. I mean PS4 is only now reaching the sales of the PSX and is already gonna end up being replaced by the PS5 in the next year or so.

Uhh, I don't think Sony realizes that most indie and AA games do better on other platforms.

It's looking like it. But if the next Boner also costs $600, I won't buy that right.

Nobody buys a $300+ console to play Indies. Don't be fucking dumb.

Yea, they buy it to play Fifa.
Good thing Google Stadia is gonna snatch that audience up.

Most best games this year have been indies, and their sales numbers just keep growing.

PS4 will still be getting games for a few more years, increasing sales

>SONY IS DOOMED
Pathetic thread

If you want to play indies get a laptop or mobile phone

Most likely but I feel that with how close the PS5 is, it won't be able to get to the number of sales the PS2 has.

That's only because the AAA industry is moving towards the games as a service model.

Most people don’t give a shit about your hentai

>Stadia
Uh... What happened to Xbox?

???

Most people would rather watch a movie than play an actual game on their GAMING CONSOLE too, apparently.

You still living in 2012?

Sony evidently does.

No shit

I have those, and I play some games on those, but games like SOMA or Observation don't run really well on a laptop. I'm looking forward to Witchfire, it's an indie game that looks more demanding than any current AAA game, I don't think it'll run on a phone.

Good idea though buddy.

PS2 was also only $100 in its prime.

Sounds like japanese developers need to grow a spine and learn how to say no.

Yes I understand Sony is censoring things but the true fault lies in jap devs who won't just go elsewhere like PC or Nintendo where there isn't censorship.

I got this, bro.

To summarize, liberals want Sony to ban games now instead of censoring them.

What kind of dumbass question is this? Absolutely. I would happily stab several people in the back for hundreds of thousands of dollars yearly. I don't know who wouldn't.

you think ps5 will fail because they arent promoting indie games no one cares about. you are the troll

Fun fact, the fag with the Cyclops Avatar posts in every thread about censorship and not liking sexualized characters.

Do these retards not know Sony is literally censoring fucking everything sexual from Japanese titles now, not just loli-bait shit?

That's shitty. I'm not buying a Playstation next gen.

I know the PS5 won't fail but I'm boycotting it nonetheless since it won't have games I want to play or if it does, it would be a version of it I don't want to play.
Tell me why would I buy a console for games or versions of games I don't want to play?

Anyone whose not a retard but also too much of a normalfaggot to ignore consoles will. PC+Nintendo is still the way to go for exclusives and hardware quality

Nintenbro here. I'd just like to thank Sony for making sure all the niche Japanese devs who used to suck their cock exclusively have now been abused badly enough they're putting all their stuff on Switch too. So thanks.

>Sony official says no worries because they would release games to Playstation anyway

He's not worried about Playstation brand itself being ruined via getting the reputation of a "console for feminist babies"? ALL of its competitors are now more mature content friendly, even Nintendo.

this is not what you said in your message, if you like to lick corpo boots, ok but I dont want to see the Playstation brand going shit thanks to fucking Californians but you seems to be quite happy with all the bullshit, they piss on your face and instead of saying enough you want more and more...

What niche games?

the last 2 console gens finally pushed me to get a good PC and holy fuck i'll neber go back

Is the Master Chief too toxically masculine for Sony?

The Switch is actually the default platform for Indies, Indie studios report massive profits from their Switch versions compared to all other platforms, but thanks for sharing your retarded opinion.

If they can maintain any sort of fanbase after 2 gens of no games then I don't see them losing any time soon.

This.

I'll play fucking Google stadia before I would own an Xbox.

Nintendo will keep AA games alive.
Platinum already hugged their asses because they know it.

PS2 was the best console that ever existed as well. Proves that popularity doesn't automatically mean something is shit.

You're going to get murdered for another gen, Xtranny. Scared? Good.

$600 seems pretty standard for a game console

i just order a ps4, i hope the ps5 eventually drops censorchip

>Reddit fanwank shat out by an Xtranny

What I want to know is why you dilating fuckers keep trying to push this FUD.

That's not incorrect at all. Obviously generational shifts turn everything on it's head, but sony is going in very strong, with it's main competitor backing off of the console race entirely.
>hurrhurharurr MUH SCARLET
has had absolutely nothing shown besides some dangerhairs in a marketing video.

it 100% depends on what they do with "xbox 2" and if they release before sony.

Lmao

Kek, no.
Even a heavily-AMD favored benchmark in which a Vega 64 beats an RTX 2070 (something that never happens in the real world) has the PS5 below both the Vega 64 and the RTX 2070.
Which means we'll likely be looking at sub-Vega 56 levels of performance, a card that's selling for ~$300 here in the US right now.

>Sony doesn't care for LGBT non-game experiences
What did the sonygro mean by this?

I'll most likely take a break on consoles next gen. I got a 1070 so I'll pirate some shit that looks interesting but I'd like to let this SJW wave pass before going into consoles again.

what else was written in that post, retardo?

priority might switch more to nintendo though, leaving ps as an afterthought or in extreme cases, unecessary

You also seemed to have implied that does not apply to Sóy of War.

They're quite happy with that, but they always call it loli instead of just sexy because it makes their statements seem less orwellian for an outside viewer.

It's not the brand, it's the fanbase.

Wouldn't mind a 720 to be honest.

The climb will last with the Republicans. If the democrats get in, they'll drop the bottom out of it, climb the debt and blame the republicans.

Honestly this is could really going to fuck Sony over in the long run.

Sony seems to have this idealized image in their mind about what the Playstation "brand" should be about: Western AAA singleplayer games with "deep" and emotional stories. You can probably attribute it to Naughty Dog's success from the 7th generation, but the pivot is really obvious when you see the homogenized design decisions creep up in nearly all of Sony's 1st party games (Horizon, God of War, Day's Gone, Ghosts of Tsushima, etc.).

They have completely moved away from developing any First Party AA, experiential titles this past console generation. Japan Studio used to put out a whole bunch of funky mid-tier games back during the 6th and 7th gens. Now they're mostly being used as grunt work for collaborations (Bloodborne) or inconsequential shit (Knack, Astro Bot). That studio has not seen any sizable investment at all in a decade, meanwhile fucking awful studios like Ready at Dawn and Bend Studio get the budgets to work on garbage like The Order 1886 and Days Gone.

Japan Studio has a single decent team right now, Team Siren, and even when they manage to put out a game Sony fucks it up. They outright refuse to market any game that looks too "Japanese" because doesn't fit in with the "Playstation" brand image of mature, cinematic Western AAA games they're trying to sell. Remember 2016 where they had Gravity Rush 2, Persona 5, Nioh, Yakuza 0, and Nier all coming out as (at the time) PS4 exclusives? Sony literally never marketed a single one in any significant capacity, none of these games were given a single minute of showtime during E3. Then they wonder why games like Gravity Rush 2 bomb and those developers don't get the budgets they should.

As I already said on other threads, games went downhill after the PS2 era because of graphics whoring. AAA games need to play safe to make a profit and AA games can't keep up with them on the marketing department because people want pretty games.

They're going to lose that battle.
If I wanted a movie, I could go get a roku for 20 dollars. Fuck off with your story.

And that's just First Party. Pushing away the Japanese 3rd Parties is a bad move and has the possibility to completely kill their already mediocre console sales in Japan. Assuming they're just going to release games on the PS5 anyway because it's "too large too ignore" is a risky fucking sentiment when their consoles sales have faltered hard in Japan since the PS2-era. The Switch is dominating the market with a healthy ecosystem for mid-tier AA games (significantly better sales in Japan, less powerful hardware evening the playing field, actual marketing support from Nintendo), handhelds have always been the home of mid-tier games in Japan.

I guess the point here is the PS5 is probably gonna bomb fucking hard in Japan and Nintendo is going to eat their lunch.

SEETHING!

Name one (23) game not on PS4

nope, that's the switch or PC

Lolno, normies and Euros and spics will continue buying Playstation.

tl;dr

Softcore porn developers aren't as large as AAA developers. They dont need a huge market. They just need ACCESS to their primary market, which they aren't getting these days.

Intended audiences:

Sony: shitskins and children obsessed with sports games and multiplats, soiniggers who like the 6 hour "games" (movies) put out by sony, LGBTAIPQ gamers

Xbox: holdovers from last generation, nostalgia faggots, people still hoping the next halo will be good, fat old guys who rage over the ingame mic

Nintendo: small children, manchildren, childless couples, child molesters, weebs

Choose wisely

Sony does jack shit to support their actual exclusives like Gravity Rush 2, and instead give the budget to shit like The Order 1886 since they think is more appropriate to the Playstation brand because of TLoU success.

I think people who run corporations are legitimately mentally retarded

If you observe any sort of audience scale, you can easily see that the current money rests in lewd games and gambling gacha
Whilst past successes leaned on the scale of freedom of expression and some basic game loop (Ie: Moba genre)

Also this site hates story driven single player games but I am glad Sony invests in them. Not a lot of publishers out there funding new AAA IPs.

They is the one single biggest truth about the modern games industry. Shit's been this way since the 7th gen.

Those are first party.

This game was unironically the worst thing that happened to Sony.

It worked so well that they made it into a formula, and now nearly all of their first-party titles follow the same "third-person over-the-shoulder deep cinematic experience" template. You know it's fucking bad when you've got faggots like Druckmann running things and talking about how "they don't use the word 'fun'" WHEN TALKING ABOUT FUCKING VIDEO GAMES. Really, how far up your own ass do you have to be?

I mean, sure, ¨PC and Switch only play low quality indie games because that's the only thing they have but still, they sell decently enough on PlayStation.

Can't wait for sony to btfo Yea Forums niggers yet again. Another generation of constant Yea Forums nigger seething
Fifa and COD normies alone ensure its success. Poorfag pc nigger hardware cant keep up and theyll have to upgrade to PS5 or keep getting 15 fps. Xcucks from this gen will switch to sony, I have xbone friends irl who admit they fucked up and will get a PS5

All thats leaves is nin-toddlers, pc virgins, and poorfags, and they have all been irrelevant in games for decades

At least Mario is a game. And Mario is one franchise. Sony's problem is it's EVERY franchise.

The point is that niche/indie games sells fantastically on PlayStation too

Sony doesn't need to care about em because indie devs needs to maximize profits and they just won't leave Sony.

You people didn't buy Gravity Rush 2

Not if they don't bother porting. Porting a game costs money user. There are many indie games that are PC or switch exclusive.

I wish Mario was all the same, these last few games fucking sucked.

I too hate platformers

Aren't normies getting fucking sick of Fifa due to EA's garbage practice of fucking with it's audience?

I remember seeing a stream about some brainlet chad talking about how his friends all hate the new Fifa and won't buy it ever again

Also is COD even still a thing?

Standard JP successful company stance, "we're too big to fail!", proceeds to fail, then they get their shit together and fix their mistakes only to arrive again at "we're too big to fail!".
What fucks over PS5 is going to be the cost. The interview imply that the console is more expensive than previous ones, and it is a niche console targeting hardcore gamers. The logic behind this is that they control the normalfag market and therefore can only expend by taking gamers from the PC market. I wouldn't be surprised if the PS5 cost $800 or $1000.

Nah, PC is going to start eating their lunch and not Nintendo. PC gaming had a growth of around 50% in Japan in 2017, PC is going to be the largest non mobile gaming platform in Japan by 2021.
At the end of 2017 it was 15 million PC gamers vs 23 million console gamers. The reason that so many JP games get Steam releases isn't the West, it's Japan's growing PC gaming market.

Sony would only ever be satisfied with movieshit numbers. And GR is mediocre.

>There are many indie games that are PC or switch exclusive.

Such as?

Indie yes, they're put out they games on literally every platform because they're desperate for sales.
Mid-tier AA games? Fuck no, especially from Japanese devs. Their bread and butter has always been on handhelds, and with the Switch doing so well and providing a better ecosystem for them to be successful you'll be seeing a bunch jump ship when the PS5 launches and Sony starts ignoring them.

Literally hundreds of games. Are you this much of an ignorant consolefag?

>Aren't normies getting fucking sick of Fifa
>Also is COD even still a thing?
Lmao. Someone has no friends

Japanese games still releases on PS4, specially niche ones

Ok, name a few

No, I do not have retarded console fag friends.

My friends are playing Shadowbringers and Dota underlords atm

Sony's based in California now my dude

For me, it's the GT franchise

How do we finally put the nail in Sony's coffin?

They can't keep getting away with it every time

The cycle has to end

Sony is right, in the short term. This is how you burn bridges with publishers and developers alike though, and the new console generation is right around the corner where every platform starts again from zero.

Fifa is routinely the best selling game every year, followed by call of duty

The "PC is going to be the largest non mobile gaming platform in Japan by 2021. " is a prediction by me based on the available data.
The source for the 2017 numbers is famitsu.com/news/201806/11158825.html

Exactly. It's like everyone forgets that the top selling of these super niche fan service things was Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus on Vita that barely sold over 100,000 copies and since then every single game in its series on top of every single other one of these fan service games has been selling less and less because it stopped being a novelty.
It's also ignoring that the line has been progressively pushed over and over again since that game released to see what they could get away with. It's not like playstation had a 20 year history of degenerate top selling games to begin with, if anything it was more a fad that came in to being because the Vita tanked and fan service games were one of the only things besides DRPGs that consistently would sell in the 30,000 copy range.

That's why i don't like current Sony. If it was the PS1 and PS2 Sony i wouldn't have any problem, but since that fucking game everything has gotten worse. Is all about cinematic experiences over the shoulder. You just have to see the new God of War and compare it to the trilogy to see the change of pace. And the problems lies in that people eat it up, because if people bought things like Bloodborne instead of shit like TLoU, Sony would have to change their minds about their current direction.

>Japanese games still releases on PS4, specially niche ones
For now. Sony is partially right in saying the PS4 is too big to ignore if they want to be profitable.

Down the line we might see that paradigm shift though. The Switch is fucking great for mid-tier Japanese games. Sony doubling down on their shitty Western AAA cinematic games is just going to drive away the Japanese audience even further. And if they're outright pushing mid-tier developers away with their censorship practices (aimed exclusively at Japanese devs) and arragont shit like in the OP, I can definitely see a lot of mid-tier devs jumping over to Nintendo exclusively in a generation or too.

No not really. It's not like publishers can jump on to the Switch because it cannot handle any games.

Conveniently ignoring the Wii vs PS3, DS vs PSP, and 3DS vs Vita.

>I'm such a fucking newfag neogaf refugee that I didn't know steam has literally thousands of Indie games that aren't on ps4
Dragon Commander
Faster Than Light
Into the Breach
Azure Striker Gunvolt
I could name literally a hundred more but that would just waste time.

Why the fuck is CoD even still a thing?

Arrogant or not, they're right. No third party publisher in their right mind is going to turn down such a large margin of potential sales in the name of artistic integrity or some shit.

>ps3
>A success
I know sonyfags are retarded but come on now.

Yes it did retard. The ps3 only outsold the xbox because it sold for longer.

sony is getting rid of nonce games though, thankfully

Same reason as mario

Normalfags.

He is talking about consoles, not portables

It still sold almost 90 million consoles, which is impressive

The Pee Poo sold only 13 million after the Wii sold 100 million

Why the fuck is smash still a thing?

yea yea, on your phone too

>Pee poo
Lol, you are a literal child.
The ps3 was a massive fucking failure that lost sony over a billion dollars. It was beaten down by the xbox 360 the entire console gen and only "won" because it sold more in 3rd world countries and japan after the gen was over.

Mario changes it's concepts each time, with some new or unique twist on the genre

CoD is literally shoot shoot with no change in anything

There is virtually very little difference between the first CoD vs the modern one other than better movement speed and fucking abilities

>Dragon Commander
>Faster Than Light
>Into the Breach
>Azure Striker Gunvolt

Ok, some few exclusive indie games but 99% of them still arrives to PS4

People who run such companies have one priority and one priority only: deliver value to shareholders. These people think in terms of numbers. They know where these numbers are coming from but don't actually know how they get there. They're not interested in knowing either, it's not their job. So they delegate the function to know how the money gets get to the Marketing Department.
Now the Marketing Department has two jobs: advertise their products to the target audience and determine who their target audience should be. Mind that I said SHOULD BE not WHO IS. No one in those companies have the job to know who they are. That was fine in the past, since gaming was a bit of gambling for them; they'd release a game and hope it struck gold. That can not be done anymore, there's too much money involved. Fast forward to the start of the millennium, companies know that games are big among different groups of society, executives must deliver the biggest possible numbers, so of course they must sell to the biggest possible number of people. Just selling the same kind of games won't cut, you have to sell MORE.
But how? That's a perfectly sensible question. You know people are buying, to some extend you know who, to some extend you know why. So, logically, there must be a why people who wouldn't buy your products before would start to buy it. If only there was some way of knowing what large groups in society want. If only...
By now you guess God came to save to save the executives and the Marketing Department. Social Media tells them EXACTLY what these large groups want. They tell you WHY. The Marketing Department do their job, the executives do theirs, the numbers rolls in. Guess who gets the axe when a product fails.

TL:DR Social Media gives company misguided feeback and it's no one's job to understand it.

FUCK

Man, you really are a retard.
There are thousands of games on steam that aren't on the ps4.

Sure, PS3 wasn't financially successful but it still sold a huge amount of consoles., retaining its loyal fanbase which is important.

Name one new unique twist

no indies on that list
Sony BTFO

You think that's bad, the anti-Nintendo posting is through the roof all day every day.

Porting games has never been cheaper or easier to do. PS5 is going to be backwards compatible so doing a Switch and PS4 version would be extremely easy and maximize the amount of people that have access to the game, and AA games need every sale they can get. That's why I don't see them jumping ship to exclusively go Nintendo.

Mostly shovelware or low quality indie Chinese rip off games.

Most indie games are shovelware retard.

>the current money rests in lewd games and gambling gacha

you're literally making shit up, maybe partially true on gacha shit that doesn't even apply with sony

No they aren't.

Mario and Rabbids tactics

>Most indie games are shovelware retard.

But PlayStation still gets the good quality ones

Nintendo E-shop and PC Valve is inundated with mobile tier crap.

literally nothing wrong with hating bing bingers

Good post

>Good quality ones
Lol no. They didn't get the games I mentioned.
They also aren't getting Black Mesa, Bannerlord, ect which are better than literally anything on the ps4.

is that tweet even real? Because the font look weird.

Just look at patreon and how much tractation games like Dream Daddy or Huniepop made for having literal zero budget

You've proven my point. Thanks for the help.

>Good quality ones
This. They get the feminist cock sucking games while the PC and switch getting the shitty gameplay focused ones.

>They also aren't getting Black Mesa, Bannerlord, ect which are better than literally anything on the ps4.

Trust me dude, those games will eventually arrive to PS4

Nice post, nice boob evny, but the word is "extent" not "extend".

>T-Trust me!

Ah a Ubisoft spinoff game. Nice.

nintendo threads don't hit the post limit with anti-nintendo haters, but sony threads do. I wonder why that is

>DOESN'T COOUUUUNNNNT
Typical.

If the yakuza series gets on any other console, I'll jump, it's the only thing keeping me there

Because sony is run by trannies

yea nice fucking games you nigger
just go jerk off to hentai or something, why do you want literal hentais with the sole purpose of jerking off or getting a hard on to pretend to be vidya?

Lol, yes they fucking do you liar. Most threads about Nintendo gamea are hate threads. Fuck off.

I didn't disagree. Ubisoft did make a Mario spinoff game. I'm sure COD had a few mobile games as well.

Hopefully Japan really does hop on the PC bandwagon I'd hate to have to buy another console next gen for a handful of Japanese PS5 exclusives that would play better on PC anyway.

Literally everyone during E3:

-Fuck these indies. Get to the real games already!

Everyone now:

- Wow i can't believe Sony is not sucking up to indies!

>15 nintendo kiddie threads up right now
>entire board filled with banjo threads a couple weeks ago
stay delusional

>ResetEra: Ban loli
>Also ResetEra: Come to are Discord where we talk about how much we like loli

The banks that the US govt bailed out and are still running?

>kill them again
They are winning hard 3 of 4 gens you idiot hahaha

Isn't about indies you retard. Smaller games are getting the short end of stick.

>resetera
>discord
>lolis
they all pander to the same target audience

>All smaller publishers are indies

>making up stuff
besides not buying a ps5 doesn't mean they'll buy xbox 2, they might either wait until price lowers or settle for a switch until then

Same shit. Everyone bitches about indies and smaller games at every presentation.

because snoyfags are subhuman scum, and they should be encouraged to their eventual suicide. they deserve to be miserable. fuck that shitty company and its tranny fanbase sucking cock after cinematic cock

This chart itself is filled with normalfag style contrarianism but that's to be expected by modern Yea Forums. Fucking Fallout New Vegas is "niche" despite selling almost 15 million copies. Souls is aimed at the "gamer" crowed despite being significantly smaller than many titles from the "niche" crowd. And very much being comparable to DMC or MH. Sales wise it's smaller than MH, and the latter is mainstream in Japan. Also, listing entire categories itself is retarded and implies that the person who made the image hasn't played a significant amount of games. Also, Yea Forums falls into the exact same category as Reddit or Neogaf, i.e. place that talk more about e-celebs and drama than about games. Actual niche game discussion is primarily in /jp/, /vr/ and/or some /vg/ generals.

Are you stupid. Ton of niche games are popular on Yea Forums or among game community.

Do you think that Sony would give a flying fuck if Nier would had released this year?

also nintendo fans pretending they ever cared about third-party devs or games

>PC has games
no wonder you are always begging for ports

yes, I hope they squash that industry

That's why they're niche, because very few give a shit about them, including here.

>begging for ports literally in their "commandments"

and they call others peasant? lol

No

Yeah, I'm thinking they'll win 9th gen

There's only 2

loli isn't the same as actually being a pedo though
they use "loli" to demonize what they don't like and to make themselves seem morally justified
