All shit posting aside the console wars are just a meme right? No one truly has loyalty to a piece of plastic and a corporation do they?

steals your exclusives

Nothing personal, consolemonkeys

There is no console war because Nintendo won.

Daily reminder that Vegeta stole the Dragon balls from Frieza and left a note. It said Dear Frieza and it was a picture of a butt!

All shit posting aside the console wars are just a meme right?

In the first few console gens, no, because the post-crash commercial market actually had video games made by human beings and not shackled slaves and drooling retards. It was more impressive to go from console to console in the 90s because each one a significant jump in game quality or some other innovation. Also, consoles were generally a "buy one and that's it" kind of deal so whichever choice you made actually mattered.
It was only around 360/PS3 where consoles and PC graphics basically plateaued out and now we're in a war of who can generate the most fake frames. There is no incentive to care about someone's console choice in 2025.

bro people get stabbed in prison over console wars and I'm not even joking. This is the truth.

It's not loyalty, it's telling people who didn't buy what you bought they're retarded for thinking they're getting a good value and laughing at their fey justifications for why they're "satisfied".

Those first world problems escalate quickly!

Console wars were fun back in 2006 when there was actual competition. Nowadays you just see the Switch outsell everything week by week and it gets pretty boring.

It's hard to call it a war when nobody is even playing the same game.

Nintendo is focused on niche handhelds and trying to become Disney: Japan

Xbox is moving further and further away from making consoles at all in favor of converting Xbox into a digital platform for goypass

Playstation tries to pretend they're participating in a console war, but their console has hardly any exclusives and they're more concerned with gambling on dogshit live service games.

I don't know what you'd call this, but it's definitely not a war. A war on the customer maybe.

Since Nintendo started paying for online all console wars feels forced

If you only knew how serious it was for some people.

Console cucks are fighting again for the amusement of the PC gods

What you erroneously refer to as 'consoles' are in fact just repackaged rebranded x86/ARM PC's
I can see your confused and think they're different things, and there is a difference. your PC (that marketing has labled a console) cant play as many games as a normal non-locked down PC despite having all the required hardware to do so.
But they remain just that. PC's. We're all PC gamers.

Console? Those havent existed since the WiiU.
All we have now are PCs some of which are locked down worse than Apple garbage

They are all PCs. The other PCs are just locked down so as to screw their owners over

How come you can't run console games natively on PC then? You need hardware 10 times more powerful than the console it's emulating to make up for the emulator's mistakes

Apple garbage

Apple’s left microsoft in the dust,

Artificial limitations mostly

No one truly has loyalty to a piece of plastic and a corporation do they?

Unfortunately the Sony fanbase does

PC gods

while posting one of the most homosexual manga out there

You do you buddy.

PC is like Broly

i don't have loyalty to any system but i still hate tendies

ENTER MOBILE GODS

Shut the fuck up, snoy.

He doesn't speak for all of us, matter of fact he's a Bakifag he might as well speak for nobody

that picture makes me sick...

PC

Steam deck

Are you LITERALLY retarded?

KEK yeah that'll definitely win the argument retard HAHAHAHA. Doesn't matter what image I post, unless consoles pull out a fucking miracle PC will eventually be the main way to game.

I'd argue that's worse since you either have a completely irrational hatred of them or were manipulated into it.

Nintendo is the only company worth being loyal to

Compared to other consolefag companies yes I agree

PC shit on their fans

What? PC market is completely decentralized except for Steam, there's nobody to fuck the userbase over except game developers themselves and digital storefronts

the PS2 already won the console war and still reigns supreme

t. ntoddler pretending he owns a pc

Steamsnoys and snoys are the same flavor of filth.

Can you elaborate on that?

Steamsnoys

Why haven't you got banned for being a worthless faggot yet?

Just a heads up, if you see someone praise Nintendo while acting like pc is run by a single company, they're trying to get you to hate Nintendo by making you think they're a fan

fight that cell lost

not the best image to go with but tendies are retarded so its understandable

Well, unlike snoys, PCfaggots can actually back up some of the shit talk, Snoys got completely fucked over by Sony by killing console exclusivity and releasing the most awful woke movieslop games you've ever seen, I'm not even sure why you'd even be a snoy nowadays unless you're a tranny

Struck a nerve?

beautiful smug cat posted to get attention to my answer

Most snoys are PCfaggots and most PCfaggots are snoys.

Excuse me? There's almost no overlap I those two communities.

I guess you should clarify which console war because there were legit inter-company conflicts
Console war 1 was Atari vs. the world (everyone lost)
Console war 2 after the crash was Nintendo vs. Sega (Nintendo won)
Console war 3 was technically Microsoft vs. Sony (Microsoft won in the sense that it reframed the war to be about subscription services that could be used on PCs... Running Microsoft software.)

The inter-personal flamewar happening online while this was going on never stoped, for 40 years. It is actually older than the internet

You keep spamming retarded terms that make no sense.
You're the only one that says "Steamsnoy".
It will never catch on.

Microsoft won in the sense that it reframed the war to be about subscription services

To be fair that was more Sony.

That's the first time I've used a conjuction of the two terms because of the discussion. Actually read the post chains you're replying to.

No one truly has loyalty to a piece of plastic and a corporation do they?

Yes they are, and for some reason their the type of person who are perpetually miserable and has little to no actual interesting or valuable qualities or goals in life.

Wasn't this guy a pedophile or something? Am I making this up? I swear his name sounds familiar

I love this old broken bastard so much. Everytime he shows up, Itagaki is allowed to just do more absurd shit through the biggest asshole ever.

Friends/roommates with a Smash groomer pedo or something, so no, but Sky is perma-fat faggot.

Nobody is loyal to lawsuits.

It's not really an actual real insult, since it makes no sense, the "insult" comes from the fact that it's a completely retarded term that makes no sense
It's an insult in the same way an ugly downie is an insult to human beauty

I mean, it used to make some sense when each console was specialized on a specific market share, like Playstation was the RPG machine while X-box was the FPS machine and Nintendo was the fun with friends machine.

Now they are all essentially the same except for a few games and having steam so that you don´t have to buy the same game every gen makes more sense.

You're the only one slapping snoy on to everything so it definitely is your style.

No one can even buy a switch 2 because Nintendo is forcing artificial scarcity again

Yeah, shipping out millions of units world wide and preorders being completely filled out sure is "artificial scarcity"

Why can't I preorder then?

Nintendo has be number 1 since the SNES days.

Playstation is very close at 2, and xbox is very very far away at 3

Nintendoo>Playstation>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Microsoft

And it still makes zero sense outside of their warped little minds, go figure

If you don't want to be called a snoy then stop acting like one. Only snoys and PCfags seethe and shitpost about Nintendo so obsessively.

Which PCfag has seethed about Nintendo in this thread? I'm a PCfag and the only thing I've done so far in this thread was praise Nintendo on the fact that they're the only console developer with any integrity left on the current market

no one needs to get me to hate nintendo
I've hated it and all it's fans since the mid 2000s

Nintendo has be number 1 since the SNES days.

they lost every time since they n64 and only had one rebound with the wii. ever since they rely on gimmicks since that's all they got.

loved original DB

completely lose interest in the franchise where Vegeta is creeping around Namek like an incel

DBZ is like a non stop tournament arc. It's just not a fun adventure comedy like the original.
Sorry, not sorry!

nintendo was not number 1 with the camecube or wii u

Tendie schizo thread

Goku: Nintendo

Vegeta: PlayStation

Piccolo: Xbox

That's been my in-head canon for a while.

Yes there is. For the last 3 gens all you needed was a playstation and a PC and you'd have access to every new game coming out.

Ignoring Nintendo games

Anon I...

i would bury my face in playstation's hairy ass

you should be used to that by now, it's been happening since the gamecube

This made sense in the 80s and 90s when these companies were genuinely trying their damnedest to earn your dollars. Brand loyalty wasn't just about trying to convince people you were cool for siding with a particular company, it was about reinforcing the sense that you as a consumer were on top; that by repping a brand, they owed you something for wearing their shirt, because you could easily flip to a different side if they fell behind. A big part of marketing in that era was "I used to go with brand X, but now I'm all about brand Y!"

This largely stopped being a thing around 7th gen when the idea of the consumer having power started deteriorating rapidly, and businesses became more directly adversarial in their endless pursuit of growth. In other words, companies stopped trying to win your loyalty and instead started demanding it, and millions upon millions of weak-willed troglodytes were and continue to be more than happy to give it in exchange for the chance to taste corporate boot leather.

No, I do mean every new game coming out. Switch and Wii are easily emulatable. Wii U had no games.

Thanks for proving me right, tendie schizo.

If Emulation counts then you can include every console except the current gen ones

Difference being that Switch and Wii were emulatable while they were still current gen which isn't the case for Playstations.

That's PC+Nintendo retard.
PC + PS has become increasingly more redundant over the last 3 gens, that's why there's no overlap and sonyfags are hostile to PC constantly calling them PC vegans.

That happened because Nintendo used the Nvidia Tegra X1 chipset, which suffered a massive source code leak in 2018, the fact that it's not a particularly powerful console either made it even easier to emulate

sonyfags are hostile to PC

Ironic

Why would you need to buy a console you can emulate?

I mean, if you want to be another lolcow like Eric and ACfag then be our guest.

spoiler

Shit for a while, then was insanely good for a while, now shit again? Accurate

the sonyfag posts

Fucking cope retard.

Shit unless you overclock it to the point of melting

retarded snoy janny deletes any pro-Nintendo posts

pro-Sony and PC posts stay

Did Snoy and Valve fucking buy Anon Babble or something?

Eric trying to accuse others of being as mentally ill as he is

You're the only one who would get offended at being called a Steamsnoy, Eric. Probably because you're the definition of one.

Xbox is Yamcha at most.

Yeah, mods are in Sony's pocket which is why you get banned for calling them out. It's most likely this guy if I'm being honest. since he seems to get irritated when people call him a sonyfag for slapping "snoy" on to everything to devalue it.

Anyway, this is a good opportunity for me to work on my model backlog

Didn't this guy job to a net?

Loud annoying and one note?

the same retard is still seething at being called a "Steamsnoy" by a grand total of two anons

Don't reply to me, ACfag.
