guess who's back :)
talked about the console wars and how they suck and i don't like them and stuff, hope you guys enjoy
(also btw this video didn't take like 4 months to make I just had a lot of personal stuff happen in my life that pulled me away from content, hope you enjoy this though)
War, war never changes, as said by…uhh…Ron Pearlman? As far as a quote goes, it’s a great one to describe the console wars. Times where people were genuinely up in arms to passionately defend their purchases of a certain console by dissecting each of them in excruciating detail. For those who don’t understand the console war, it’s hard to paint a mental picture of what is essentially, gaming not for fun, or for a goal, but just to defend a company. The release of games were just sales numbers, review scores you could screenshot and show other people. All of this in an effort to say that a console, not a game or even an experience, was superior.
Getting back on topic, this tale stretches back into the nineties. Sega versus Nintendo set the stage for what a console war is, with each company outright insulting the other in advertisements to get you, the consumer, to buy their product. Inevitably, this console war brought about innovation between these companies because the companies themselves were fighting on the front lines with each other. Nintendo, obviously, didn’t have to do much work by having a large amount of the “popular games” to play on their console, but SEGA put in work to popularize phrases like blast processing, which then made Nintendo respond by “debunking” it. This bickering was made especially funny years down the road because commonly, many people didn’t think blast processing was actually a real thing, it really was just a marketing buzzword to get people to buy the genesis. And it would almost be as funny as the truth if it just ended there, but blast processing does exist, and it’s a very real feature, that not a single shipped Genesis game ever used. This entire list, not one of them, ever used it.
In a more recent era most people know “the console wars” as Sony vs Microsoft, the Xbox vs Playstation. These two titans duke it out on the frontlines of consumer store shelves, while Nintendo just kinda does their own thing. All of this began in the early 2000’s, with Sony releasing the PS2, and it quickly becoming the best selling console ever made, a title it still holds to this day. The Playstation 2 was secretly, not so secretly, meant to step on Microsoft’s toes by competing with home computers, something Microsoft noticed, so they decided to respond with the Xbox, and the Rock. And even with the help of my baby (show stryxo videos mentioning halo count), Microsoft managed to make it 21st on the list of best selling consoles. It didn’t exactly dethrone the PS2, but what it did was a carve a space in the console market for Microsoft to dominate, especially when Microsoft released Xbox Live, which while not the first ever online option for a console, it was the only one to include things like, a friends list, a gamertag that sticks with you in every game, and voice chat. Maybe that one was a mistake, but you get what I mean.
The late 2000’s brought forth a surge of renewed energy towards a console war between Sony and Microsoft, except this time the front line of this war wasn’t fought by the companies. The companies were playing Cold War, they’re not buying advertisements to all over another console, instead they were letting the studios they owned or the games that released do the talking for them. - Ігри

How about no?

no
So much mis-info
the PS3 was prices at $600 get your facts straight
Console wars still exist? This war will never end 😔
Fr just let people play what they want to play
Unless you ignore it
Agree
Yes sirr and ps is better
@@AHHEUSyou got to pay $80 a year to play online nah PC is better 😂
The whole console wars thing never appealed to me, even as a kid because I've always been very passionate about gaming that isolating myself to just one brand feels like a very dumb and pointless thing to do.
For me, it was about combating the isolation. If somebody preferred Genesis to Super Nintendo, they simply weren't aware of how good the SNES was.
I can at least kind of understand how kids would get caught up in something like that, but grown men...
@@madspunkywhat are you seriously trying to make the Genesis and super Nintendo argument again both had amazing games neither was better than the other you could have easily preferred one or the other without just saying they didn't realize how amazing the other console was
@@OrgaNik_Music I can understand if you're a kid your parents buy you one console you want to feel like you're not missing out on the others. Even as a kid i wanted the others to play more different games and newer experiences. I've always been a fan of Nintendo IP. I got a Gamecube as a kid but than eventually saved up for a PS2 because I wanted to play some of those games like Gran Turismo and FFX, than the OG Xbox came out I fell in love with its PC influence because I used to play some Age of Empires 2 on PC and Diablo 2. Also Splinter Cell and Ninja Gaiden were FIRE!
Had I pledged some sort of a pointless allegiance to one console manufacturer I would've missed out on so many awesome experiences.
The only thing I see being relevant is only having one console because of money.
And what annoys me is when your favorite multiplatform game gets a bad port on the system that you bought.
I'll never understand why a grown ass man in his 30s would care about console wars.
@@N.i.E.M.O You good dude?
@@N.i.E.M.O That...seemed quite personal. Most of the sane Nintendo fans would tell you that they hate Nintendo as a company while just loving the games they're not that toxic to the extreme level. Ethough it's normally the older ones that I see most likely defending them.(ones who grew up with the nes to snes)
@@KazShirodude. That’s the 30 y/o manchild the other guy was talking about. Wtf is this comment coming in and refuting someone else’s statement only to go on and affirm it. But in your own words. Lmao.
@@N.i.E.M.O Either that's a copypasta or you're an edgelord teenager with too much time on your hands
@@nameputhpong9041 The people alive during the NES era would be like 40 not 30, lmao. 40 year old manchild. Even worse.
I got to experience both Metal Gear Solid (PS1) and Zelda Ocarina of Time (N64) when they released two months apart in the Fall of 1998. It was at that moment I knew that life was too short for console wars.
goddamn, how did 2 masterpieces release so close to each other???
@@riston7264 The years around the turn of the millennium were a magical time for games. Felt like a future classic would drop every couple of months.
@@riston7264 We didn't know how good we had it! Zelda had lots of previews and hype but MGS was almost a surprise hit, nothing could prepare us for the first fully voice acted game that felt like a movie.
Funny enough Ocarina of Time was the one N64 game I was waiting for and the one I never played. I grew bored and frustrated with the lack of games releasing on the N64. Going to FuncoLand and looking around there was tons of games on PS1 I wanted to play. Eventually I traded in the N64 and got the PS1 and Final Fantasy 7. Stopped caring about brand loyalty and console wars after that. Just get whatever looks fun.
I got to play Elden Ring and Zelda TotK this year, I don't see why I would want to miss out on any of these masterpieces over a nonsense console war or PC masterrace blabla.
the console wars are so painfully pathetic to put it all in a nutshell it’s all just a bunch of kids complaining about why their toy is better then the other kids toy
The sad part is it isn’t kids anymore it’s grown adults still doing this shit
All I see these days are adults in their 40s and even 50s waging console wars.
@@PointingouttheObviousmentally, they are still children.
But halo is better than cod tho 😂
@@redwiltshire1816 Another kid here..........
I remember a friend telling me back in the day "if you bought an Xbox, we couldn't be friends anymore". It's crazy seeing how heated people get about this
Edit: I still do play on PlayStation so we never compromised our friendship really, and I guess it was two at the time middle schoolers thinking like this rather than depressed dudes on social media.
It is soooooo much worse now.
A big incident to remember is this (I PROMISE IM NOT MAKING THIS UP)…
There was a PlayStation fanboy who was in arguments with Xbox fanboys. He was a doctor and would tell them this. The boys weren’t having it so this Sony Pony decided to RECORD himself while at work.
Won’t go any further than that in this comment. I’m leaving out the huge issues with this.
I honestly could not believe it when I heard what happened.
Honestly it’s always Sony fanboys bringing this stuff up 😂
@@azuremk__3101 i remember that incident
I can tell you from experience, it still happens rn
I still remember people sending dick pics and to one of the developers working on GOWR trying to get a Reveal date for it.
It’s amazing how pointless the console war is when you either have a PC, or you can just buy all the consoles
Was gonna say that. But only us rational adults with disposable income can afford that. Most of the console wars today are just losers trying to validate their purchase. It's funny to watch tho. Good content, seeing goblings malding and such.
@@Nebuchadin might be kids too
Even if you can't buy all the consoles if you're a normal adult with common sense, the console wars don't matter
Yea I can buy a Xbox one and a ps4 and a switch cheaper than I can buy one decent pc unless you have to e money to spare than don’t bother buying a pc
@@Nebuchadinah yes another form of elitism
lets pray for the people caught in the console wars 😢
🤣

It sucks to be toxic or be in toxic conversation, so why not have fun when we talk about the consoles or the games. Hope y'all have fun with your favorite games!
Yeah, just like in that one anime
Toxicity exists because people participate in them. Facts! 😂😂😂
The 360 vs ps3 wars were truly wild. I remember being a diehard ps3 fanboy mainly because its online services were free and it had superior hardware. Looking back at it, it's all just a disgusting marketting ploy, and the real crime is that we were deprived of crossplay for so long and I couldn't play halo with my fellow xbots.

The anime this time didn’t have a November deadline it released in April
Pokémon release schedule is a problem
For years we waited for a mainline console Pokémon. And when it came out it was the worst thing that ever happened to the franchise. And it's never really recovered. It sold fine because of course it did but look at the state of Pokémon now. It's a laughing stock.
sony fans fight xbox fans on who has better quality, nintendo fans fight nintendo fans on if nintendo is high quality
not actually into console wars, i just wanted a setup for a nintendo infighting joke
"My small plastic box is better than your small plastic box!"
Nintendo is firmly out of the console wars. They have won the youth market and they're never losing it as far as I can see, and they have loyal legions of adult Nintendo fans that will buy anything their go-to series puts out, I assume, for as long as they live. Now all that's left is Xbox and PlayStation fighting for what shrinking number of older gamers aren't migrating to PC.
They didn't really win the youth market, cause between 13 and 20 you're mostly like "I am not a kid anymore, I want to play CoD on Xbox/PS" and then at 20/30/40 you realise these games are full of teenagers and playing the new Mario is infinitely more fun
The Youth market! Idk if you know how many adults especially adult women love switch games and the accessibility of it. They even changed up switch marketing to be more young adult focused (18-22) when the switch launched cause when they last marketed to kids/families it didn’t work (wiiU) I love my switch and am planing to mod it and bring its clock speeds to the normal amount for the chips inside (they underclock everything for power saving) I also have no want to get a ps5 or Xbox series since most of the big budget games come to pc where I have a 3080 so I can run pretty much anything. The only reason I would want a ps4 is Spider-Man or demon souls. But I will just use an emulator to play the original demon souls on my pc with mods to make it 60fps and maybe some texture improvements.
It would be more accurate to say Nintendo has won the general market
Nintendo is the definition of the "hey guys look I discovered a new shape!" of the console wars.
I find it's the only company that's still trying to be truly innovative.
Nintendo : Traditional
Sony : Traditional-Modern
Mircosoft : Modern
outright false. all my younger cousins and their friends talk about is playstation and whatever. nintendo isnt even a thought in their mind. nintendo is actually the one for older gamers who havent migrated to something else because all they know how to play is mario.
I think it can still be fun in a causal/friendly rivalry way. But when it gets to the point of lying about game score and seriously thinking others are wrong to buy a different piece of overpriced technology. Well, it’s gone too far.
I bought my PS3 because the online was free (mostly Destiny), then I bought my PS4 specifically for Bloodborne, earned some trophies and said "well, I guess this is me now".
Yeah, free online was awesome 👌
I agree. 👍
Was Destiny during PS3? I thought it was with the next generation that released.
@SIPEROTH yes actually I remember playing it back when I couldn't afford a ps4, lol
I like the console wars, not because I want to prove a point, but just because it's interesting to analyse what companies did well or less so, and why that is. Plus it's cool to see the history.
This. Each company excels in so many ways and falls short in so many ways too. I like it as a healthy competition but it really has become a toxic debate since the Xbox One and PS4 launch.
that's not console war you're referring to, console war implies toxic comportment that have for only goal to make your side look better.
You just like gaming history.
@@maximini4923 probably true, but calling it the console wars sounds more epic lmao
@@Und3rcov3r I didn't think of that, so true
@@maximini4923 A console war is a competition between video game consoles manufacturers in trying to achieve better consumer sales through more advanced console technology, an improved selection of video games, and general marketing around their consoles. When did it ever became "toxic" comportment between consoles?
Great video Stryxo, I never fully understood the elitism of the Console Wars but after watching this I don't think I will nor want to. Can't wait for your next upload in 6 months!
Thank you. I see so many ppl act like they’re neutral but then post something negative about the side they hate, knowing it’s gonna cause a stir, but swear on their life that they dc about the console wars. It’s cringe 😭 lol
Remember kids, independent unbiased journalism is cringe.
the saddest thing is that most of the gamers who actually partake in this shit very likely spend more time complaining about video games on Twitter than actually playing video games.
yeah, i've already spent way too much time on twitter. and i did involve in some arguments. but they were not about consoles - i like all the platforms and wanna collect more after some time. they were about the game i spent 6 times more time in than any other game - geometry dash. basically, there is a biggest update that ever was and will be coming, so some ppl are complaining about physics changes. and i respond them that most players don't care
Great video! I would like to add on a little story of my own.
From my knowledge, the very very first "console wars" were between magnavox and atari. Long story short, atari "ripped off" magnavox in some way so they sued, atari caved, but magnavox basically died the very next console generation, and has become only known by nerds or people who read comments like these, while atari basically became the start of the video game legacy.
I will say. After that ad for Brilliant I really will take that! You really know how to work your stuff
I appreciate how orchestral music throughout the background of this video--not a common choice for console/video game discussions, but an appreciated one for me.
As a kid I was a passionate Xbox fanboy. As I got older I got a PS4 after not liking the Xbox One and loved it. Then i got a Switch in 2018 and I realized as an adult that they are all great
Really happy a lot of people grew up and realized that fighting on behalf of multimillion dollar corporations that will never care about you is stupid
But... but...
"Playstation is awesome! They have good grafix and exclusive games!"
"Xbox is awesome! They have even better grafix and they have Gamepass!"
"Nintendo is awesome! They have Mario and Zelda and those games have 'art style', and I hate online features anyway!"
@@N.i.E.M.O You forgot that "Your system sucks!"
Console wars are dumb, but from a consumer standpoint it actually breeds healthy competition. Ever since the disastrous Xbox One release, Sony hasn't really needed to try that hard. The PS5 is even $500, a pricetag that supposedly hurt the Xbox One, while the Series S is over $100 less and even has game pass as a huge selling point. Even then, PS5 absolutely dominates and puts Xbox to shame. There is no console war anymore, Nintendo is off being Nintendo, and now Sony gets to play on easy mode.
Welcome back Stryxo! Great video!
I think the last time console wars really mattered was the 7th gen. After that (and even _in_ that gen), consoles just became so similar that it didn't matter which one you bought, we were all doing the exact same thing with them (unless you owned a Nintendo console).
Wii owners were stuck with (often forced) waggle controls, PS2 graphics, and the worst online service ever (til the Switch came out).
@@N.i.E.M.O I was mainly talking about Xbox/PlayStation, that's why I said Nintendo consoles were doing different things.
also can someone please tell me why switch online is so bad
Still better to get ps because of exclusives imo
@@zemchia
Switch Online is considered to be terrible when compared to literally every other online service that has existed since 2005 with the Xbox 360.
The only other online services that are close to being as feature and stability deficient as NSO would be other Nintendo platforms (although in some ways some of them actually had more features, a lot even - even if they mostly sucked anyway, there was at least an effort, which we certainly aren't getting with NSO ).
If you’re buying a Nintendo console, it’s just the assumption that online isn’t great and that the graphics aren’t great. It’s not like anyone expects them to acutely be good at that stuff
They absolutely exist. Twitter is hell. They're so petty and dramatic.
Oh god... Twitter is a wasteland when it comes to console wars. The amount of cope, pettiness and downright stupidity is concerning. I seen some xbox fan page intentionally glitch himself in the new Spider-Man game and then he went on a whole rant about how the game was broken and Pony (whatever those are? I'm guessing Sony) are malding.
And then I went on his page and he has 40k posts and I'd say a good 95% of them are defending xbox. It's an actual unchecked mental illness.
@@ShaquilleOatmeal849 twitter is a wasteland when it comes to literally everything. Stupid social media
HOLY CRAP…. This was AWESOME!!! Good stuff🎉
ahhhh i remember seeing your 5th video that blew the fuck up when you only had like 1k subs. So happy youve grown so much and i got to see it.
The last time I feel the console wars was a thing was probably Xbox 360, ps3 and the Wii
@@nyaranciayou right lmao i haven’t had a twitter since 2016 so I have no clue what’s going on
I was way too young during the Xbox 360/PS3, which is why I don’t recall console wars back then, I was too busy playing the Halo games that released during that time, wasn’t witnessing passive aggressive/trash talking replies in the comment section, but all we can do is just laugh and it right?
This is one of the reasons why I left the gaming community. Is there any benefit to fighting? When I see them even making threats, I just sigh.
Specially with this generation of consoles. Nothing good can result from console wars. Whoever wins, we all lose.
Yes, fighting for your gaming ideals, I don’t participate in these console wars much but I have picked a side and that side is Nintendo, it stems from them being the only traditional video game company left and their games speak to me more than PlayStation and Xbox games.
@@Adamtendo_player_1you have a preference, which we all have, but using the term "ideals" for a simple piece of plastic created by a multi billion company only to sell, is just childlish.
I did enjoy the console war stuff as a kid. It was fun arguing about dumb things. Then when a friend got a particular game like Halo, Devil May Cry, or Smash Brawl, NOW suddenly everybody switches which console is the best and we all want to play at their house until the next big game 😅.
They might as well fight for their country with that much dedication lol
Can't, because not enough time playing games when you are in the army. 😅
They already have a healthy surplus of morons joining the army. Imagine being dumb enough to join any army. What kind of psychopath loser wakes up one day and says “I’ll join the army maybe I kill or get killed for some old billionaire sitting comfortably in his office” 😂
I admit to being into the console wars when I was in middle school. Half the boys in my grade were, and they'd have arguments about it all the time in the restooms and in the cafeteria. It's pretty forgivable for kids to do that, it was a harmless way to pass the time and it's one of the few issues they have to worry about. It's pretty sad to see so many fully grown men (and I'll assume a few women) take part in it. They're not accomplishing anything, and they make it harder to talk about games with other people online.
The back half of this video was perfection. These twitter takes are making social media worse are fueled by people getting paid from impression counts on twitter
Neckbeards feel the need to breathe oxygen. 😂😂
PC all the way, baby. We now get basically all the games, emulation, and sales.
wait what the hell, how did you do that?
I was just thinking this morning "hmm its been a while since I've seen a Stryxo video
Damn I miss 3KB, what a throwback
All 3 companies are garbage in their own ways.
All I can say is I've got Game Pass PC, a PS4 with most exclusives available on it, and a switch, and I use all 3 regularly
I remember my first time switching to PC. There was no war. Everyone is super friendly. No monthly subscription required. The game discounts are amazingly cheap. Everyone is super social and wants to play together. Despite my first PC purchase was a gaming laptop with a GTX 1650, the performance was still really good. My next upgrade was an RTX 3080, CPU i7 12th gen with a motherboard with wifi 6. Man, that PC ran games as smooth as butter. I have play on every console version of Playstation and Xbox and I love several games on both. The console wars is a waste of breath.
Blast processing was too advanced for the game devs to handle
@Stryxo thank you for making this video :)
We missed you Stryxie bro ❤
It’s not a console war anymore it’s a content war
You gotta admit it’s so entertaining seeing all the fanboys argue
While my xbox 360 did red ring when playing L4D, the PS3 I bought also decided to die when playing Thief 3 so I really never thought one was better than the other. Now I'm afraid to even turn them on with them being out of warranty.
Using hi-fi rush as an example is just glorious with recent events
welcome back man, thought i'd never hear from you.
Also nintendo wii won the console wars back then, people just hate the truth.
HES BACK 🎉

Fantastic comment!

Oh wait
Lmfao
Console wars are the silliest thing, you need them all if you're a true gamer.
Nintendo started the wars and then went peaces out of it and did their own thing that got them reach while the others just war on another... That's called strategy
I agree that people who are fueling the console wars are usually under the age of 15, but the console war itself is actually really good for the consumers, because xbox, ps, and nintendo will try even harder, and make better games so they can compete. (the downside is the studio crunch but that's an another thing)
Unfortunately that's not how it works anymore.
Both Xbox and Playstation release unfinished broken games well below standards we expect. They don't push each other to do better anymore, those days died back when the Console Wars died, in like 2013. Now, it's just bickering and useless jabbing "Oh you're buying a company? Let me delay that in court as long as I can just to spite you" is the new stauts quo.
@@Perseus7567 What? How is PlayStation releasing broken unfinished games? All Horizon games were very playable and finished day one, the same goes for the God of War games and Spiderman games.
Ratchet and Clank the same, Demon Souls the same, Returnal the same, Ghost of Tsushima the same, Keina: Bridge of Spirits the same etc etc. I have no idea what you are on about?
@@SIPEROTH what about Cyberpunk 2077? That was a broken mess of a game and you haven’t even justified the money grabbing micro transactions from PlayStation and Xbox, thankfully Nintendo is all about the games and the gameplay and is the only one that’s getting my money, glad I left PlayStation behind for Nintendo as PlayStation sucks.
@@Adamtendo_player_1 Cyberpunk?
Are you drunk? What does Cyberpunk have to do with PlayStation?
It's nether a Sony studio game and nether an exclusive where you can say PlayStation is involved a little.
Is just a third party title, nothing more.
If we simply take any random third party titles then we have to accuse Nintendo for Mortal Kombat being bad on their console or having microtransactions which is just silly.
Also the vast majority of first party PlayStation titles aren't filled with microtransactions ether. Where do you see microtransactions in any of the titles i mentioned? The biggest guilty is probably GT7 and is still not pay to win and still has everything available threw gameplay.
This is just funny as hell, you left PlayStation angry because of third party developers that have nothing to do with PlayStation. If you are gonna be angry at PlayStation at least be for something valid.
@@SIPEROTH it has everything to do PlayStation because it was on the PlayStation. Maybe it wasn’t a PlayStation exclusive game, but the fact still remains that Sony too focused on their crappy live service and their games are over the complicated and clunky, the biggest reason is Sony has forgotten what made them so successful. Where is Nintendo is the only traditional gaming company left and I’m a traditionalist I never cared about 4K graphics. I care about gameplay and access with you and none of PlayStation games are really accessible to newcomers. Where as the Nintendo games are more fun.
I was just thinking about the days before cross platform play, and it was always so disheartening to have your mind set on a console, just find out all your friends got the other and you couldnt play together
Gotta love how Stryxo decides to upload a new video exactly when Wildspartanz goes on a hiatus
Nowadays it's really less about box vs box but two different visions of the market/industry future.
The Playstation (and somewhat Nintendo) guys are more favorable to the status quo with full price gaming in a varied industry while the Xbox (and somewhat PC) guys champion all digital, subscription services and industry consolidation.
Couldn’t agree more. I think exclusivity is also dumb. Exclusives should be timed and have a guarantee to launch on competing platforms eventually
Business wise they make sense I believe. Sure ton of people with other systems will not like it but it gives value to your platform.
Honestly everybody has a preference when it comes to gaming but some won’t admit it and some take it too far.
return of the king o7
Where are the great people who like both PlayStation and Xbox?

The console wars was something I had no concept of growing up. By the time I was 14-15, I’d owned at least one console from every manufacturer, and I had played games on every platform - Nintendo, PlayStation, Xbox, PC. Hell, I think I might’ve experienced the Dreamcast over at my old friend’s house, so I even squeezed Sega in there too.
Same goes for things like mascot platformers. Mario VS Sonic? Crash VS Spyro? I had all four of them.
A stryxo video??? Am I dreaming
10:44 Damn, Just skipping over the saturn. Feels Bad.
The console wars are fine, as long as the people look at both sides and see the good and tye bad and decide what's best, the rational discuss it with people
No it's not, it's extremely chilshid childshid childshisd I don't know how to spell that
@BeRnUgEeK As I have seen by your spelling u are a little kid and probably isn't grown up enough to have a say
Console wars don't matter anymore. Most people play on PC and mobile.
Personally, I just bought the series S because it’s a pretty good price for the power you get out of it. I’m enjoying my experience. I had a switch too but I gave it away to my friend, I just wasn’t enjoying it like I used to.
I find it funny that Nintendo kinda just watches their competitors on the side lines selling 10 million copies of Zelda in 3 days. And people call them the “underdog” of the console wars.
The console wars is honestly one of the most cringiest debates in history!
I want to apologize for being a hardcore Nintendo fan
Yo is that Fall of Cybertron within the first minute of the video!? My man has immaculate taste.
The console wars were so tough that Sega had to retire 💀
In the end
PC MASTER RACE
Solving the console war
Xbox: doesnt have genshin impact
Playstation: has genshin impact
Conclusion: the xbox wins
Remember when console wars used to be a friendly competition. Those were the good old days at the time. Sadly it’s all about harassing people on “X” for playing on a inferior console. All I ever want is to have fun. No matter which console I’m playing at.
"Babe wake up, a new Stryxo video just dropped."
It sure does......that said.....
Nintendo clearly is winning the war
Console wars kinda stopped meaning anything when people started being able to emulate gba, nds and PlayStation consoles well.
There’s a large library of old games that aren’t immoral to emulate since copies are no longer being sold.
It's never immoral to sail the seven seas scallywag
I have a PS3, Xbox One X, Switch Lite and a PS5. I love all off the Consoles. Eatch has cool exclusive Titles. ❤😊
Thank you for this video
Why? There's nothing wrong with competition.
It's crazy how much gamers defend companies that make Billions in annual PROFIT. Not even revenue just pure profit. You're a wallet to them nothing more
I remember playing on a friends console once... Then I went home and booted up my pc with reverence and thankfulness
On god
For real gamers it was NEVER about who has the most teraflops, the best GPU or whatever. And some gaming companies have never understood this.
For us real gamers it is one simple three letter word that matters the most to us: FUN
5 months in the making
Conclusion of the video : Nintendo earned money 😂
Great vid!
Stryxo upload? I thought he took the money and ran?!?
Great video by the way (xbox on top)
Oooo🤨 Playstation is on bottom and nintendo is switch
Xbox da goat
Moving to PC in 2016 was like retiring from the war. It felt great and it feels even better now having access to xbox titles and Sony titles on one machine.
Consoles have been rendered obsolete on December 20th, 2022 when Super Lesbian Animal RPG launched as a PC exclusive.
Wait, my favorite twitter shitposter has a youtube channel
I'm really surprised that the Steam Deck wasn't mentioned at all in this video
I feel like it would have been a great way to talk about pc gaming
Probably because PC gaming wasn’t the focus lol
he mentioned pc wdym? its jsut another option for it
So good the video
I own a ps5 and i thought hifi rush was a game of the year contender, but man its been a phenomenal year for games
TRAITOR! HOW DARE YOU! YOU ARE DISGUSTING SUCKING OF AT XBOTS.
SELL YOU PLAYSTATION YOU TRAITOR!
Yes, I'm a joking. Just bringing a little of that console war tension. 😜
Crazy seeing the 30+ year old men that still care about console wars and never grew up
Being on PC, I get the best of all worlds
Even worlds that stopped existing
I miss the Sega vs Nintendo console wars even though I wasn’t alive by then but still.
