Microsoft announces that Xbox One X is going to be their last ever console. They have canceled all ther game related projects and following the launch of the Xbox One X will be pulling out of the games industry entirely.

10 days later Sony annouce that the PS5 has been canceled and they too have canceled all projects and will pull out of the games industry.

Then when everyone looks at Nintendo they annouce that the Switch is great and you like should totally buy one.


How would you react to the two giants suddenly vanishing from the market at the same time?

Sounds like the start of a gaming revolution, and considering the state of AAA development these days it's probably for the best.

I'd feel really sad for all the Sony first party studios. They have a lot. Sucks for the Microsoft ones too.

I don't see how the two giants giving up can be for the best

Good.
The current gen of consoles is worthless.

Gaming itself could cease to exist and we already have enough good games over the last 30 years for multiple lifetimes, so i'd be fine.

Not entirely surprised because technology vs. cost hasn't been moving as fast as it used, but I'd be pretty horrified that Nintendo would have a monopoly on the industry.

Any company that gets the table mostly to themselves is one thats going to fuck it up with their inevitable arrogance.

This is a myth, Nintendo helped revive the gaming industry in the U.S. alone, everywhere else gaming was doing fine

Also Nintendo having a monopoly was what gave them their current stuck up amd head up their own ass attitude. Years after the monopoly has fallen they still act like they have one with how they belive that they're above criticism, that 3rd parties owe them subservience, and should flock to them for no other reason than their Nintendo.

Ironic considering they're more irrelevant to the industry today than ever before
