Nintendo exists in its own weird little corner with its consoles though.

I don't even know what company could enter the hardware market.

Valve, I guess
Asus maybe
Apple's been trying to make inroads with gaming, so maybe they'd try something

I don't know.

Gaming consoles are not necessary nowadays. Wasnt there rumors of Sony dropping consoles in the future?

Nintendo gets a free pass, no surprise there. If they were Apple they would be absolutely despised by gamers.

Im a PC gamer who gets to play all their games by default, so I have no particular reason to care either way.

They did not. They killed the physical games department.

Because a lot of others are in the same boat. Thats one of the primary reasons Xbox isnt selling consoles worth a damn.

How is the PS3 relevant to the discussion at hand? Were talking about Microsoft.

If you have a gaming PC, the only reason to own an Xbox is for backwards compatibility to play a handful of older Xbox exclusives that havent been ported to PC (or been remastered and had their remaster released on PC, like the Master Chief Collection). The only games I can think of off the top of my head that fit this criteria and that Id want to play are Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, and Tenchu Z. That isnt worth $500 to me.

I considered buying a Series X for that purpose when it was on sale for $350, but the timing was bad as the prior month Id spent $1200 on a chamber vacuum sealer, accessories, and pouches, and the following month I spent about $1400 on a 41 quart pressure canner and a propane camp stove to use it on, so I decided I couldnt justify $350 at that time to play 3 games.

Lol people that legitimately believe MS is done with making Xboxs are silly. These same mfs have been making Surfaces for the past decade.

Unironically this. Back to the old video game days, except with heavy monetization and bs.
