@Fiendish-Beaver only <1 million will buy Xbox if at that price. I don't think Microsoft will only sell 1 sku, I think there will be series s like version maybe at $600-$700. Maybe with lesser RAM let's say 32GB. We still don't know if Microsoft will use a single unified GDDR7 VRAM, that would be too expensive. I think they will use 16GB GDDR7 for the cheaper Xbox with 16GB LPDDR5X or maybe only use 8 core cpu. The expensive version probably 20GB GDDR7 with 24GB LPDDR5X with the rumored 11 core cpu.
Probably Silent Hill 2 + DLC shadow drop. Would love to if Koei Tecmo finally port Nioh Collection, Atelier Ryza Trilogy & other missing Atelier games for Xbox. Square-Enix probably shadow dropping Tactics Ogre Reborn, Valkyrie Elysium, Live A Live, Star Ocean 1+2 R, and any other missing Saga games. While it probably will never happened but I wish Earth Defense Force 6, Ys series and The Legend of Heroes series finally appeared on Xbox consoles and be shown on that partner showcase... Maybe PlayStation Publishing will port any of their old first party games for Xbox maybe Days Gone, Uncharted collection or anything they want, they need to do it so that Xbox can stay relevant as gaming console because Xbox already giving everything to PS5 but so far only Helldivers 2, MLB the show, and death Stranding given to xbox. Xbox even promise that more of their games will be on PS5, it would be bad for Xbox consoles health if Sony not doing the same.
I think Xbox would still exist if people still buying xbox consoles, but lately many Xbox One players refused to upgrade to Xbox Series consoles; Xbox Series sales already reached their peak sales for now. I think Xbox consoles will still exist in the next 10 years, but after that I don't know. Xbox losing 4-5 generations in a row probably will make Microsoft "give up"
Yet Xbox consoles still unavailable in ASEAN countries except Singapore. Xbox never try to sell Xbox consoles in Asia as a whole, only selected countries. Xbox skipped more than 70 Asia countries
New Xbox consoles or new Series X/S refresh, more multiplatform day 1 parity with PS5/Switch, not getting skipped by Japanese & Asian publishers, price drop for Xbox series to boost consoles sales, ask Sony to stop doing timed exclusives with 3rd party devs (too many big AAA skipped Xbox at launch because of Sony, we Xbox gamers need to wait for 5 years for FF7 remake to come to Xbox), ask Sony to port all their first party hits to Xbox because Xbox also give first party games to PS5 (fair trade), possibly ask Nintendo to port some of their games too (Xbox give some Xbox hits to switch, now it's time to return the favor by porting smaller games like Fire Emblem, Bayonetta 2&3, Astral Chain, and others), and announced commitment to revive older IPs like Banjo/Conker because Xbox first party need varieties not just shooters, racing, RPGs; we need old platformer nostalgia too, and lastly revive perfect dark; it's huge shame they cancelled it
Sony already multiplat publisher on Xbox: MLB The Show, Predator Hunting Grounds, Death Stranding Director's Cut, Helldivers 2, Marathon. Soon Gran Turismo 7, Fairgame$ (if the game not cancelled), Marvel Tokon (probably 2027 or Q4 2026), Death Stranding 2 (Q2 2026) I can see Sony porting Horizon Zero Dawn, Stellar Blade, Days Gone on Xbox next year
Why is it so difficult for Microsoft to just make a single SKU console, one disc and one digital just like PS5??? And why no demo units on every retailers? Why no Xbox console demo booths at Tokyo Game show, Taipei game show, bilibli events, gamescom? Microsoft literally stupid company when it comes to marketing.
Xbox should have used the money to buy publishers who like to skip Xbox like NIS, Nihon Falcom, Square-Enix, Mages. By having at least those two Xbox wouldn't have the biggest problem which is Japanese developers skipping
Looks like everyday is a bad news for Xbox. They always said that Xbox is dead, but here we are. Xbox still live and well, as long as lifetime Xbox doesn't sell <20 million Microsoft will not stop making Xbox consoles. Xbox is here to stay will always be PS5 alternative, Xbox publishers support this generation is much better than Xbox One too. Believe in Xbox everyone
Probably they will close Compulsion Games because South of Midnight flopped. Hopefully not Undead Labs, but no news about State of Decay 3 at all since teaser is concerning.
I think it's hard for Square-Enix to release FF7 remake trilogy and FF16 due to exclusivity contracts, Microsoft acknowledged the deal (FTC leak) as games that won't come to Xbox in unknown period of time (highly likely until PS5 generation ended). However Xbox has another chance with other publishers like partnering with Atlus to bring Persona series to Xbox, and now partnering with Koei Tecmo to finally bring Atelier series to Xbox. I know Persona & Atelier won't beat Final Fantasy, but hey better than nothing at all. At least Xbox try and acknowledge that their platforms getting skipped many times by Japanese publishers, Xbox also got skipped by many Chinese publishers & indie developers. Well Xbox still has many homeworks to do well in Asian region
Huge disappointment, they released more games on PS5 & Switch than their own console (Xbox). More Japanese games also skipping Xbox, Square-Enix still skipping Xbox with Romancing Saga 2 Remake, FF 7 Rebirth & FF16 (their timed exclusivity already ended & no Xbox), more publishers skipping Xbox e.g. Capcom with Marvel vs Capcom, Bandai Namco with Gundam Breaker 4, NIS with Legend of Heroes & Ys still skipping Xbox. Terrible year so far, Hellblade 2 also a disappointment
@BacklogBrad Come on stop trolling, Switch can't even handle its first party games very well, take a look at Xenoblade. Low resolution (300p-500p) and framerate dip below 20
@BacklogBrad Switch is not capable of running Ratchet lol. It's too weak, do you mean cloud version perhaps? Xbox can handle it without problem but I don't think many kids playing Xbox
From PS: Helldivers 2; Marathon; MLB; Spider-Man 1, 2, Miles, Wolverine (if PS forced to make them multiplat by Marvel). Other than that I don't think they will port other games, exception is flop Japan studios game like Gravity Rush; however PS doesn't care about Gravity Rush. And Japan studio was already closed for several years, so the IP is dead now.
From Nintendo: Astral Chain; Bayonetta 2, 3, Cereza; Tokyo Mirage Sessions; Xenoblade 1, 2, 3. Other Nintendo games no chance, I only list those because they are the worse selling Nintendo published games, some are flops like Tokyo Mirage, Cereza.
@Banjo- Yeah some of them are timed exclusive but the others are multiplat games skipping only games which is sad... Maybe someday Xbox will get it like FF14, exactly 14 years later
@FraserG Yeah I think I missed it, the new shocked me so much. I think Xbox is done with first party exclusivity. I think I will not buy Xbox again in the future, missed too many good games
@Dr_ENT I can't play FF7 Remake, FF7 Rebirth, FF16, Nioh 1, Nioh 2, Atelier series, Ys series, Legend of Heroes series, Disgaea series, Silent Hill 2 Remake, Shin Megami Tensei III HD, Rise of the Ronin, Stellar Blade on Xbox
FF XIV comes too late, already lost interest. And I need to pay double subscription in other to play it... Quadruple actually (need to buy the base game + dlc)
Current gen barely even started for these past 4 years. Many games still ported to last gen, slow growth of this current gen remind me of 7th gen. This gen cycle will repeat the 7th gen cycle (8 years)

Re: Talking Point: Will Certain PlayStation & Nintendo Games Eventually Come To Xbox?

Re: Talking Point: Will Certain PlayStation & Nintendo Games Eventually Come To Xbox?
@BacklogBrad No, Switch can't. Unless Sony want to spend time to massively downgrade Ratchet which I don't think they will
Re: Talking Point: Will Certain PlayStation & Nintendo Games Eventually Come To Xbox?
@BacklogBrad Switch is not capable of running Ratchet lol. It's too weak, do you mean cloud version perhaps? Xbox can handle it without problem but I don't think many kids playing Xbox
Re: Talking Point: Will Certain PlayStation & Nintendo Games Eventually Come To Xbox?
@supercalifragilistic That's why I said until Marvel forced them to make Spiderman & Wolverine multiplat
Re: Talking Point: Will Certain PlayStation & Nintendo Games Eventually Come To Xbox?
@BacklogBrad Ratchet and Sackboy (LBP) are PS mascots, they won't go anywhere other than PS/PC. Unless the game really flopped on PS & PC.
Re: Talking Point: Will Certain PlayStation & Nintendo Games Eventually Come To Xbox?
@ShadowofTwilight It doesn't sell well. The game better of ported to PC, PS, Xbox to get more audiences
Re: Talking Point: Will Certain PlayStation & Nintendo Games Eventually Come To Xbox?
From PS: Helldivers 2; Marathon; MLB; Spider-Man 1, 2, Miles, Wolverine (if PS forced to make them multiplat by Marvel).
