Take shitposts seriously and point out their obvious errors

-Carl Friedrich Gauss, probably

Why? The argument was that MS wouldn't make CoD exclusive, when they've made the highly anticipated Starfield exclusive.

1. You said yourself that a lot of gamepass subscriptions were on PC. You know how many people own PCs?
2. That's what happened with the Xbox one X and the PS4 pro. Game devs want to make their games look best for trailers, so the graphics will be focused on instead of optimizing for the lower tiered consoles. It'l be like "if you want stable 60fps, you'll need the PS5 pro".
3. Starfield already didn't come to the PS5. There even was a version for the PS5 in development.

Sony has sold double the consoles this generation (60 vs 30 million I think).

Sold consoles isn't that great of a cathegory to judge the two, since both lose money on every sold unit.

And the Series S is very unpopular with devs, increasing the complexity of developing games for Xbox to get just half the PS market.

Get ready for the same thing to happen on the vanilla PS5. Devs will target the PS5 pro for trailer footage and the games will run like shit on the old PS5.

Game Pass is popular, but it’s just one stream of revenue, and a lot people are only using it on PC

It's very cheap to offer and if they don't need to sell xboxes to have a wider customer base, that's a bonus - not a drawback.

but Sony and Nintendo is dominating console gaming, with MS lagging far behind

We'll see how far they'll be lagging behind once they leverage their Call of duty monopoly.

I'm curious: How do you think someone "shit the bed" with xbox, when Gamepass is incredibly popular and successful?

Here's the speedrun

Didn't know they?/she? was trans. That's awesome for them/her! :D

back in the 360 era.

An era famous for its' tacked-on multiplayer modes.

Revenge for playing Yeti sports back in the day.

I don't have faith, I try to unnerstand their actions and tactics. And I dislike nonsensical arguments mainly informed by gut intuitions rather than thinking for a second.

Illusion of Gaia/Time is not a Nintendo IP. No copyrighted material is being distributed. They can't even legally takedown decompilations of Zelda and Mario. What makes you think they'll go against a completely and unquestionably legal romhack of a 30 year old Quintet game?

company that hates its customers.

You're describing every company.

Nintendo mainly goes after Switch emulators, since that's their current system. Also, their legal angle is that certain emulators circumvent DRM (like cg/wii or switch emulators). Rom patches for 30 year old games should be fine, as long as you don't distribute copyrighted content.

The game is not by Nintendo. Also, it's a patch. They can't takedown a patch.

And beating down protestors is the cops' point

Predatory life-service bullshit before it was cool.

Afaik, the phrase is supposed to mean "don't count on the internet forgetting something you want purged."

It's probably not about that but rather to destroy the secondary market of modchips and save-file editors in Japan.

Recent laws in Japan have criminalized console and game modding, as well as save file editing

What the flying fuck, Japan?

They also left the original game where it was. If you don't enjoy the remake: don't play it.

How is 7 "ruined"? It's still there, isn't it?
