The NX codename is referring to a team up with Microsoft to developed the new system.

The console's final name will be WiiBonedU.

PS4 is good but you know they should really make some games worth playing on it.

all the GOTY candidates for the year are on ps4. enjoy.

To this day it saddens me just how badly Sony hosed that up. At least with the PSP they actually bothered to make a variety of games based on their IPs. It bombed, but I still got some mileage out of it. What little they even do with the Vita anymore just seems to be targeting one specific demographic with incredibly Japanese style games. That's not such a bad thing, but the problem is that they do very little to appeal to other things.

Want to play WipEout? gently caress you we care about that less than Nintendo cares about F-Zero.
Maybe Ratchet & Clank, or Twisted Metal? Haha no!

Granted, this problem also extends to the PS4, but at least that gets 3rd party support.

the psp didnt bomb at all, it did really well especially considering they were agiansnt the DS

the ps4 has plenty of first party games out alrady and up for release, alongside 3rd party titles. it has more games out and upcoming than the xbox or wii u will have over thier entire lifespan.

The PSP only sold a WiiU's lifetime sales less than the second best-selling console of all time.

This thread is a paved parking lot outside a Whole Foods that's still 2 months away from opening and people are complaining about kids using it to play dodge ball.

Also some other kids came by to talk about how lovely dodge ball is and that street hockey is objectively more fun due to sales of street hockey equipment.

And no matter how much the dodge balls kids ask, the street hockey kids just won't shut up about it.

Also the hockey kids are massive and swole and beat up the dodgeball nerds for torturing a metaphor to breaking point.

THIS is MY metaphor and you will not commandeer it

console wars = dodge ball (and playful rough-housing)

shopping at whole foods = discussing actual NX news

Wondering if the unopened whole foods will have good prices on kale = speculation on if THE CONTROLLER MIGHT BE UNIQUE IN SOME BIZARRE, UNEXPECTED FASHION THAT ULTIMATELY IS UNDERUTILIZED
