Traditional home consoles are dying
PC destroyed them. Not only are they not keeping exclusives on them, but they're getting more expensive.

PS3 = greatest value and console ever.
PC and Consoles should never have been a race to begin with

Consoles are the cheaper alternative that are better as plug-n-play systems where you aren't constantly hassling with compatibility issues, outdated graphics cards, poor optimization, and all the other trappings that come with PC

Consoles will always have a place on the market. They are simply way easier to use for the average joe (or kid) and that's all they ever needed to be.
PC will always have a place for people who want full customization with their games and the hardware it runs on, and doesn't mind having to potentially install fan-made patches so a game works like it should.

The two can exist in harmony, and I'll never understand why people think one HAS to be definitive over the other. They each have their pros and cons and fit different needs.

I bought the ps2 slime at some point and had no regrets with it. But to be honest later in life a PC is just......Mostly better....well for me anyways.

Switch 2 is a hybrid, so it's a different market from Playstation and Xbox.

Mobile is the main PC competitor, not traditional games consoles anymore.
The last console I had was a PS2 and and GameCube as well as VERY FEW games for each. Maybe 4 to 5. Metal Gear, Silent Hill and Resident Evil.
Plebstation was always awful - glad to see people are finally waking up to this fact. And the only people who are sad to this are platform die are 1) Soyny Execs 2) Scalpers who made fortune by conning people into buying PS5 during the height of Scamdemic
So I need to say “goodbye” to my Colecovision?
I'm happy with my Switch. I won't buy a Switch 2 as it can be bricked by Nintendo.
Nintendo sucks too. they peaked with the GameCube - Wii.

Nintendo been going downhill, Especially now more than ever, the switch 2 gotta be the most mid underwhelming POS since the Wii U
Without discs drives and the ability to physically own games, they're making themselves obsolete.

The only upsides I see to consoles now is not having to deal with third-party launchers or "kernel level" software being installed in order to play games online, but who knows how long that will last.
Actually they are growing in popularity and this is in part being fueled by the rising cost of graphics cards.
