I’ve never skipped a console gen starting from Super NES, PS1 through 4 plus the Switch Oled 5 years after launch of the OG Switch

It seems like exclusives are rarer now with Sony and Xbox pushing games to PC and Nintendo spending resources on remasters. COVID made it incredibly difficult to own a PS5 and they have some disappointing exclusives as well

What do you think? Any reason to own a PS5 or PS5 pro?

The best thing about this gen so far is the rise of handheld PCs, like the Steam Deck and ROG Ally. I mostly play on the Deck nowadays, while the PS5 gathers dust.

The OLED Steam Deck has reinvigorated my love for videogames. I’m playing Dave The Diver and DBZ: Kakarot now.

Yeah, the Steam Deck (and clones) will be the cover story in this chapter of gaming history.

I’d like to think this is due the Chinese handhelds picking up where Nintendo left… (In its own way ofc 🏴‍☠️) and I’m glad I was a participant of this…

But I think it is mostly because of cloud gaming and Nintendo Switch inspiration.
