I agree on everything except the last bit. It may be true for Xbox fans, but not for those who love the PS exclusives that may or may not come to PC years down the road. The number of PS exclusives that have already come to PC is very low compared to the number that have not.

If you're a guy like me you mostly wouldnt really care for playstation exclusives since by then i wouldve been too busy playing a hat in time and Sonic Robo Blast 2

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

no matter whichever side youre on we can all agree keef's video on the whole situation is hilarious

But I've already played A Hat in Time on my PC. Haha. Awesome, awesome game! I buy a console for games I can't play on my PC.

We're all just here for the SSD really, sony hasnt even announced any exclusives
tbh i wished that sony would just make online free and have the 'free' games that come with PSN be a bonus but that's never happening as long as theyre greedy.

But where's the profit in that? Nintendo saw that free online was a sinking ship so they joined the paid subscription but i'f you're so against paid online just play offline it's very simple.

we shouldnt have to play offline just because nintendos being a bunch of greedy fucks, and it would be fine if the online service was decent
But its not, we only get a few obscure SNES and NES games and mediocre online. No N64, no GCN, nothing that's worth you paying 20 dollars a year.
Also im sorry but these are multibillion dollar corporations, they really dont need to charge people to use the internet that theyre already paying for

Sorry but i feel it's the way moving forward I understand your fustration but no profit can be made with free things. ok i wish they would add folders and better file management like they had with the 3ds but to me the switch still feels like a rushed effort to hide the fact of the wii u. plus nintendo as well asother companies like to find ways to save money and make it not just throw it away.
