Ron I have to tell you I went crazy trying to get a ps5 and now that I have one I’m not impressed, if the next gen is like this one I will not be entering it. I have a huge library of games I could play including my burger time quarter arcade. Great video.

The handheld should absolutely replace the SS

I’ll be very interested to see how Xbox goes from here. I don’t see them technically trying to ever compete with Sony or Nintendo again.

That doesn’t mean they won’t do unique things. They just want people to have a box that plays GamePass. They don’t care if it’s your TV, phone, PC handheld, PC, or a box you put in front of your TV. As long as Nintendo and Sony don’t want GamePass on their devices Xbox will have a device for GamePass is my thoughts.

If xbox can do a powerful handheld with great battery life at an affordable price that can do both win and steam os and can play game pass and steam then I would buy it in a heart beat. But I doubt it.

Nintendo is the only brand with the attachment rate for exclusive games to be a selling point and honestly it was because of the form factor that the Switch took off. Nintendo games also sell well on Mobile. Nintendo sells nostalgia and those of us that grew up gaming on consoles all buy our kids a Switch. Just as much for Fortnite and Minecraft as Smash Bros. It's just how it is.

If it plays Fortnite, Minecraft, Call of Duty, Madden, College Football, NBA2K, WWE2K, Roblox, and GTA it'll sell. That's the majority of PlayStation and Xbox gamer's. This is the end of traditional generations in my mind and exclusives won't do anything more than lose money. Most are barely breaking even.

The old way was sell a console to sell the games. Now it's a Unified Hardware front to obviously unify the storefronts. If this is a PC more streamlined for a console gamer to transition seemlesly as well as help the new OEM manufacturerers by giving them the branding to actually appeal to casual gamer's in the PC market which is the fastest growing market in gaming. It effectively kills exclusives through the use of multiple storefronts which they still will collect there 70%. If the Xbox/Windows store is front and center then the bulk of 3rd party sells will happen there but even if they didn't you can sell these devices off the Game Pass Ultimate proposition alone. The more they spread their games out the more they can make casuals aware of what Game Pass Ultimate ultimately offers as game prices potentially increase.

It also actively gives them more time to continue working on the cloud streaming technology and improving it through software updates potentially instead of hardware itself. The cloud is everywhere. This technology could actually be used to help bring the experiences to their TV partners just as easily adding the UI and OS in those devices as well. Essentially changing the living room experience with gaming and your library the same way smart TV's did.

Having multiple OEM handhelds works for them as well as games are already developed with specifications and benchmarks. Yes it'll extend the current generation but ultimately it won't matter as developers can create there games with the lowest target and optimize from there accordingly without having to worry about if it would run on whatever console or not. It's a PC basically. It's flexible.

It also creates a unified experience on pc, "console", and mobile which to me sounds Alot like what the this is a Xbox campaign is all about. There's literally nothing to lose in this. Not to mention if they're allowing the new Windows Xbox UI that Aaron Greenberg referenced and Xbox branding then there being monetizing it in the background. Better believe it. Since console gaming isn't really attracting new users this could actually be the best way to actually do it going forward.

You have no clue do you? Sarah Bond already said that their going to make another Xbox you up on this video saying if they do 😂 came on man they are

xbox is the best place to play everything

PC, Switch 2, and Retro Handhelds is all I need

Console exclusive don’t sell console, it’s third-party, the friends you have on that console and backwards compatibility.

They don't want to make games exclusive to a console that barely sells enough units to justify the business. It just doesn't work for them anymore in terms of making money.

"what makes a console important, exclusives" but that's the thing people keep missing. Microsoft sales their console at a loss to get people into the echo system where they try to make their money back. Why do that when they can JUST sale games everywhere. Valve had best echo system, Sony the "best" console, Nintendo the best selling games, Microsoft is trying to be the best publisher.

The subscription model is destroying Hollywood. Only Netflix is making any money

Lorax: let it die, let it shrivel and die. Xbox this is u.

I was more into handheld systems when I used to ride a bus to school back in the 90’s (I had a Game Boy and a Game Gear), but they just don’t appeal to me anymore now that I do all of my gaming at home.

MS should have done an Xbox handheld long ago and now that valve, asus and Lonovo are all in that handheld space and trying to compete with Nintendo, MS is in a battle royal they aren’t going to win. First of all a 3rd party Xbox branded handheld just seems absolutely ridiculous. There’s nothing about the idea that’s appealing imo. I’m going to stick with Steamdeck.

As for the question what’s Going to happen if they drop an Xbox in 2027? I don’t think Sony is going to respond and let MS sink on the hardware front and here’s why. Since MS is a 3rd party now you really think MS is not going to make their games for ps5? Of course they will and so will other 3rd party devs because none of them will be able to rely on Xbox hardware as a sole source of income. Also I seriously doubt that Xbox hardware in 2027 will be a significant jump in 2027 from series X and lastly as their hardware sales now show MS is in no position to lead the industry. 3rd party devs are going to go where they can make the most money and SELL the most software and that’s not Xbox unless they are paying devs to put their games on the service.

PS5 and Xbox Series: "A Generation of Nothing."

Hasn’t even felt like it’s been 5 years since this generation started, probably because we haven’t gotten many original new games.
