Game consoles usually become cheaper in the years following their launch. Not so the PlayStation 5, which was launched in November 2020 for $399, but five and a half years later costs $599. This obviously has a drastic effect on sales.
If you’re trying to sell a game console, what can that console offer except exclusives? It’s more a comment at how bad at business these giant cororations are than a complaint.
Less so in favor of exclusives and moreso baffled by how barren the PS5 is for them since it’s such a major driver of console sells. Especially given how many indie and AA studios would probably be willing to give Sony exclusive rights if they chucked the budget of failed projects like hero shooter whatsyamacallit with the botch retro scifi aesthetic.
Wait when did people start demanding exclusives instead of complaining about them
