Nintendo 1st party published games have shipped over 167M units under 3 years.
That alone is impossible for PS5 or XSX to replicate.
Yeah in terms of sales Nintendo's 1st party are almost second to none. Only Rockstar consistently compares and that's with them releasing like two games in 7 years xD.
Granted, GTAV has been an absolute monster in its own right and I doubt any other single AAA game will approach its success except maybe GTA6.
Very, very nice looking piece of hardware. The onus is now on Sony to at least match that, one would assume brand loyalty will win the day for the PS5 but the 360 proved MS can get it right. It sounds like they're not going to be outpriced by Sony either, I imagine MS can afford to take a bigger hit than Sony on hardware?
MS can; $1 trillion market cap vs ~ $60 billion market cap, yeah.
But the question is if Xbox division can. They may be willing to but it'd depend on the main MS departments okaying it. Granted, same goes for PS division at Sony, but they probably have a
bit more leeway. Though it certainly seems like MS is giving Xbox division a lot more to work with now, which is great news.
Bravo Microsoft. This puts me at ease. Just few things remaining:
1) How much AVAILABLE RAM for games. It must be 16 GB minimum available (not total)
2) How much bandwidth of GDDR6 RAM? Rumors indicate close to 600 GB/sec, hoping ideally be close to 800 GB/sec
3) Wifi 6? I am thinking yes.
We ain't gettin' 800 GB/sec, chief xD. 768 GB/s is maximum, and that's with a 384-bit bus and 16Gbps chips.
But rumors are suggesting it's more likely a 320-bit bus and currently using 14Gbps chips, for 560 GB/s. They could switch to 16Gbps chips,
tho, and get 640 GB/s, which is a more realistic upper limit.
