The most switches were bought in 2020 by a pretty big margin, and while covid helped a lot I'm willing to bet Animal Crossing lifted just as much

it's not like the eternal nintendo century is caused by their steady release window of good enough exclusives that keeps their base energized

Cr1tikal said in his stream while watching the Xbox SGF stream that exclusives need to go away to save the industry, and I don't know how you think that at all

I bought the PS4 to play bloodborne, the switch to play FE 3 houses and zelda, the idea of exclusives not mattering always sounds crazy to me

Weird the only people kept pushing that narrative was like Microsoft as well and gaslit enough people to believe it

we live in such a weird period of time where exclusives have all but been given up but every publisher is trying to make software platforms instead

Of course exclusives don’t matter, Xbox has no exclusives and they’re doing fiiiiii oh no, oh no oh man that looks bad oh fuck they blew their legs off oh geez

Like even if it’s a bunch of niche titles or only a handful of major exclusives, it’s still A reason when there isn’t that much difference compared to the older generations

its surely pure coincidence that the one platform holder that has completely given up exclusives and is trying to get them on any and all platforms just so happens to be the worst performing platform
