@Erchitu true true my dad had a sega Genesis ans SNES but sadly he throw (!!!!) both away! My Gameboy saw no actions since years now when I got a DSi XL and a 2DS afterwards which saw almost no actions after I got my Switch...

True I play Xenoblade a lot too (the 2nd since I never got a WiiU) and it is absolutely gorgeous even with those hardware limitations! got 220 hours in and still go back to play some hours now and then. And as you said imgaine that world in 4K or even 8K would be mindblowing! But I like to have and own my games (I buy digital too since I still kinda 'own' it in i way with downloading) to still going back to play later even after years. As you said that you like to play Retrogames, I like my Gameboy and playing Pokemon Red or the Original Advance Wars etc is still a joy. I don't wanna having this freedom been taken away because games go streaming and you have to pay monthly or per game for xxx time or that when the servers get shut down/games get taken down I lose my opportunity to play it after xxx years... :/ that's why I wanna boycott it would be nice that even with the streaming services, we still get an option to download it even if the hardware is too weak to play it. Since technology is advancing fast, we could just play it on a future device no matter what happens to the servers. Then I would be on board too ^^

@Erchitu yeah true seeing the actual product and hearing it from a presentation by themselves is different I'm happy with my Switch and an only streaming gaming device is not meant for me. But I can understand why some people are hyped for this

Switch is my only and first 'home' console. I normally played/play on my DS or PC

@roadrunner343 wtf dude do you even read?? I even clearly said that I have nothing based it on but judged by myself (a hypothese?!!!) on their Android google Play system. I'm out if you can't get the difference between a fact and a hypothese. Ofc every company want to get profit, we are living good or bad in a capitalistic world. Do you think a gaming company won't like to make more money?

And your example with movies. How many movies companies/conglomates are out there compared to games? Or music? One should notice that music is not as costly as movies or games. On top how many series on Netflix are made by Netflix themselves? Why is Disney making their own streaming site now and moving away Netflix? Because they earn more with their own streaming site. Everything is as you said about money and making a profit. I said that if you want to get gaming companies coming over you have to promise them good profits. Look Epic store... and if you can't keep on having a neutral conversation with me without getting judgmental and attacking me, I will be out. If not I will gladly keep on this convo.

@roadrunner343 judging by their Android playstore system... Alphabet is a greedy company, much more than Sony or even Microsoft. PS and Xbox as well as Nintendo got the Internet locked behind a paywall... do you think Google would do the same? I doubt it in that regard especially with only streaming. Ofc I got no evidence to back my statement that we have to pay for every single gme but it is highly. How would you get triple A publishers to get on board if you promise them less revenue than on Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo's devices?

@roadrunner343 netflix or spotify is not the same. Why? Because there you pay a monthly amount for ALL movies/games! Here you pay for each game for a full price but can't own it? C'mon it is not comparable... you don't pay for each movie or serie on netflix and you don't need to pay for it again if you want to watch the movie after a year or so. You pay very cheap for EVERYTHING on their server and can watch it as much as you want to as long as you pay for their services. It would not be the same if the new google device is functioning like Netflix which will never be the case.

@ALinkttPresent uh ofc it is boycotting? just like the rumors about a next Xbox with only streaming... one should boycott it too since streaming a game means never having the game... as I said competition is always good... but an only streaming device is never good for the customers... especially if you have to pay the whole price for the game but never actually get the game
