retardera has their own thread tho (since they have constant drama).
In a nutshell, a janitor under the name of cvxfreak (and also a huge sony fanboy) had enough of Media Creates threads where Nintendo continues to dominate the vidya market in Japan and the rest of Asia (namely Taiwan and South Korea) while PS games are met with ridiculously low numbers, due of no competition. The incident exploded when it was found out that the mod revealed his power-tripping on Discord and banned a couple of users from the forum, including the guy who had access to Media Creates (as that website started to have a paywall a few years ago) and made the threads on Resetera/Neogaf for over a decade and so.
Sales figures and industry trends generally dictate the kinds of games that are being made and on which platforms, so it's interesting to see how things play out. Especially with Japan still being a massive console game market. It makes sense to aim for the Switch and PC as long-term consumer investments (rather than the PS5) if you're really into japanese games for example, at least as far the sale charts have been demonstrating for nearly a year.
