I hope you know I'm joking, but judging by yur comment, it doesn't seem that way considering that you are ruining the irony of my statement

Oh, for heaven's sake.

There's no "console wars". Just stupid whiny fanboys who have nothing better to do with their lives than argue about which electronic box they bought from a multi-million dollar international company is better than the others.

Idiots. Effing grow up.

She-Ra is awesome. If you believe otherwise, you are clearly wrong.
Urban Champion is GLORIOUS.

@the_shpydar
Of course there is no "console wars", but the three companies are direct competitors in the gaming market. It's inevitable that comparisons about which is doing better will arise. It's the same with everything really: Apple vs Samsung, Apple vs Microsoft, Disney vs Universal vs Dreamworks, Marvel vs DC, McDonalds vs Burger King, etc. So there's no problem in debating which company is currently on top.

The money, the market, graphics pushed far more than it would be necessary, hardware manufacturers, lootboxes and other unfair selling methods are winning, quality and accessibility of games, gamers and passionate collectors are losing.

You all sleep on the Ouya, but it's the true winner of the console wars and no one can tell me otherwise. Nintendo Switch? More like the Nintendo Switch This Thing Off. Playstation 4? More like the Playstation Bore. Xbone? More like the Xbone'd. Ouya is the true winner. I will not rest until all you filthy casuals realize that. You want to see peak perfection? Here it is, but be warned - you gotta have a high IQ to understand it's true beauty.

Nintendo Switch is winning the console war....for my heart. Looking forward to a dozen games yet to come this year for it.
My Xbox one by comparison has two games preordered for it.
Don't have a modern gaming pc (just a laptop that can barely run starcraft 2 on medium settings) and don't own any playstations.

@the_shpydar so true. However I think if it goes the way Microsoft want it everything will be digital only in future on more physical games. I know it's gonna happen sometime, but I am old skool and prefer a physical game. You can re-sell or trade-in digital games. I also miss the old paper instructions in the case, lovely smell and some were think with nice art work. Online manuals sucks. Consoles are coming more like PC's you upgrade. So I fear a future of digital PC gaming only and 1St party will just have to sellout. Mario, Uncharted and Halo all on PC via downloads?

IMO:

The Console Wars have really died down in the past few years, with Microsoft/Xbox having basically given up the fight and is just content with being the last in line, so the real fight is between Sony and Nintendo at the moment. Sony/Playstation is kinda doing their own thing and really trying to be an all around home entertainment system/service but doing a good job all and all in the Console Wars with many exclusives, popular series, and new franchises. Meanwhile Nintendo is being Nintendo, as they've always been, by ruling the handheld department and innovating with their consoles and games while also relying on their classic franchises and Nintendo style games.

It's honestly hard to judge who's winning at the moment, Sony or Nintendo. Both are doing fine at the moment, both with good sales, good exclusive franchises, and loyal fanbases, although I will say Sony seems to be losing focus. Not struggling mind you, but Sony has so many different products/departments such as TVs, music, the such, while Nintendo being solely interested/invested in video games.

In the short term, I'd say it's an even match. In the long term, I'd bet on Nintendo, solely for the reason Nintendo cares more about the Console Wars than Sony because it's really the only business Nintendo does, and because Sony has so many different areas of their business to worry about other than video game (too many irons in the fire). I honestly think Sony could lose the Playstation/video game market completely and still do just fine as a company/business, sure it would have to scale back, but it would survive, meanwhile Nintendo would go belly-up if it made such a decision.

Like I said: in the short term, Sony vs Nintendo is where the fight is at, and it seems evenly matched. Long term, I'd place my money on Nintendo.

All hail the mighty Glow Cloud
