Nope
That won't work again though because the geniuses at Sony are going to release the next gen ports to the fucking PC.
If you're referring to Halo as the "non-exclusive" in that list, it actually was exclusive to the Xbox, unless you're thinking of the PC port but that didn't come out for at least two or three years after the Xbox version. Halo very much was an Xbox "exclusive" game back then and BOTW did have a release on the Wii U but since that console flopped so bad very few people actually played it on that system.
I forgot about the time differential for Halo, admittedly but I'm not conceding shit on BotW, which was in 100 percent exactly the same as Miles Morales. If PS5 doesn't get Miles then Switch doesn't get BotW.
Wildly popular?
I'm still not really sure why people bought the PS4 when it came out TBQH
It won by default. People were paranoid about Xbox One eventually adopting an always-online, no-used-games policy, plus Don Mattrick being profoundly retarded to the point of outright telling people not to buy an Xbox One and to just keep their 360 instead. People didn’t like the Wii U for a variety of reasons, an important one being that the most noteworthy games released in its first year were Mario 3D World and Nintendo Land, which were good, but not Mario Galaxy or Wii Sports good. Xbox One got a lot better over time and Nintendo eventually pivoted to the Switch, but by that point PS4 had already established itself as the “safe” choice.
I think Mario 3D world was released in the second or third year. It launched with New Super Mario Bros. U, which was the third game in the already tired New SMB franchise.
PS4 went in with a lot of momentum. PS3 had gained a lot of momentum near the end of its life, at a time when the entire Xbox brand was killing itself, and E3 2013 had this video to openly mock Xbox's initiative to prevent used games from running:
Yeah, but what games did it have? Infamous: Second Son?
It was November 2013, exactly one year into the Wii U’s life give or take a few days. I remember it vividly because everyone was comparing a PS4+Knack vs. a Wii U+SM3DW.
If I could rate just that video as Autistic without doing your entire post, I would. Sony made a big deal out of having a basic feature that everyone else had and their mindless fanboys are still eating it up over a decade later as some epic own. Microsoft briefly announced that they wouldn’t support used games, then completely abandoned that idea a few weeks later, long before the system even released. This video is not a selling point, and it never was.
Like I said, won by default since people were more confident about its future than the other two. What, you thought people bought consoles based on what they have right now?
Wasn't so much that as weapon's grade copium:
Fixed it.
Those last two secret stages are a bitch and a half though
You damn kids need to get off mah lawn
every one else like who, nintendo? or what mysterious other consoles you're talking about? you are aware in return this means even hinting not supporting what "everyone else" had was a very big deal, right?
