Xbox bought up a lot of the best western devs and will still get the big third party western releases, while PS5 gets more TLoU and GoW type games, with few big japanese releases. Really the only big japanese studio I can think of that would go exclusively (or at least for a while) PS5 is Squeenix

Most big japanese games also come to the switch eventually. I'm just not seeing much reason to buy a PS5 until they get really cheap

Thots?

I don't see any reason to be in a rush to get the latest-gen systems in general. I'll almost certianly get one of them one day, but it won't be anytime soon.

For reference, I got PS3 in 2012 and PS4 in 2017. Only console I ever got close to release was the original Xbox (I really wanted Munch's Oddysee).

I'll end up with both but yeah it'll still be next year or the year after before I get my first one

Honestly I never use my console to watch Netflix or stream anything. I use my PC/Phone/TV App

Even when I was XBO/PS4, I'd do majority of my gaming library on XBO and would keep my PS4 sitting in the closet and only dusted it off and plugged it in when an exclusive came out.

I kinda hate the xbone and I play the shit outta my PS4. And previously kinda hated the PS3 and played the shit outta my 360. Guess now I'll flip flop again

I'll get a series x eventually, they just haven't given me much reason yet to upgrade from my X1X.

I'm not a huge graphics guy, so upscaling games to higher resolutions and frame rates doesn't really appeal to me. Maybe when Halo comes out i'll jump on it.

I'm still rocking a 1080 p screen and will be until I can't see what's on it anymore

I thought my timeline was similar to yours, but I was off by years, apparently.



XB360 in 2015, and XBOne S in 2019.

So I guess I'll get a XSX in 2024? I'm earning points from MS Rewards even faster now, so it may only be 2 years until my next system.

As an Xbox/Switch owner, Persona is the one Japanese series I feel like I'm really missing out on.

Damn dude you really are. P5R is maybe a top 30 game for me. It was so god damn good. Here's hoping they eventually come to their senses and release it on other platforms

I got the PS3 and 4 in those same years.

Though I had a 360 in 07 and then it red ringed.. Fixed for free.. Red ringed again.. They wouldn't replace it.. Bought another and it red ringed.. Threw the bitch away and bought a PS3.

I will get a PS5 when FFXVI releases.

Atlus games are the last big holdout yeah. I think the days on Persona and SMT being exclusive will be done very soon.

It's cool that Game Pass gives Microsoft the opportunity to target these Japanese games for a port and a Game Pass addition. I doubt it costs them much and it gives the platform more credibility. Total win win. I'm sure the Game Pass team will be looking at Persona next.

Sony is locking down certain Final Fantasy games with timed exclusives but I think they'll move over eventually.
