Would you say that /v/ has a majority PC player population by a significant amount?

There aren't too many console players on here, but are they masked as idorts/multiplatform owners?
>>
>>321488891
There is a mixed bag of everything.

PC being the majority
Sonybros 2nd
Wii U owners
Xbone being the extreme minority
>>
>>321488891
Ive never understood the hatred of Sony on /v/. We're on an image board for Japanese culture and Sony has all the Japanese games.
>>
>>321489303
Because PC is master race, Xbros "do not exist", Nintenbros "keep to themselves" and Sonybros are really the only other majority you can blame shit on and hate all you want simply because they are the only other majority.
>>
>>321489303
Sony has a colorful history of shitting on and lying to customers. Majority of us never forgot that and wont forgive it
>>
>>321489303
Because the fanbase is retarded.
>>
>>321488891
Yes. Obviously.

Take this into note.

If you're a PCuck chances are you own BOTH a PC and Wii U hence the retarded Mustards making the "le PC+Wii U master race maymay"

Sony fans probably own both as well but the population of Sony to PC/Wii u on /v/ is higher then sony


Sonyggers are only considered the worst due to sheer numbers anyone with half a brain knows that they are all cancerous faggots.

And I'm an idort excluding a shitbox for obvious reasons.

PC users have done serious damage to the gaming industry and let me explain why.

Basically what happened before and during the PS360 gen is the rise of PC gaming and the mass migration. Those who had been raised by consoles were now turning their backs on them yet in such a way that instead of seeing them as platforms that supported game development for over a decade, they were now seen as mere obsolete pieces of hardware designed by greedy companies to hold back their gaming experience. This propelled the already growing subculture of PC superiority as we know it today.

What PC migraters failed to realize was the consequences of damaging consoles market share for it was to directly impact the capacity for the industry to fund and develop games in the wake of rising game budgets. Good hardware doesn't buy good games and many thought by moving forward in terms of consumer hardware would move the infrastructure that supports software development forward too, however, they simply didn't care to understand how that industry works and why it doesn't cater to the consumer with the best hardware and also how it ultimately puts them at a disadvantage provided their goal is to receive new software in the first place. The the relationship consoles and software developers share has since became demonized and attacked for simply operating under a sustainable model of financial and structural support that works for both the developer to provide software, the console manufacturer and ultimately the consumer.

As games continue to evolve they will simply continue to work hand in hand with console manufacturers who will adapt to the changes with hardware iterations toward the end of their life cycles. It is this infrastructure of complimentary support that actually holds the gaming industry together and drives it forward while also ensuring developers stay afloat and remain profitable and continue to make the games.

4chan is an enthusiast website. That's why you have all these people who are aware that PC gaming is the best, and they are also aware that the only console arguably worth owning is the Wii U, as it has the most and best games out of any gen 8 console.

Sony fans are the worst and most hated on /v/, and rightfully so. They get voted the worst in every poll because of their years and years of shitposting and ruining discussions. When there is a PC thread, or a Wii U thread, those people typically stick to their own kind, and Sony fans come in and start falseflagging and trolling. Then when they start losing the debate they start playing the victim card and feeling sorry for themselves, only to return in the next consolewar thread spouting the same fallacies, only to have them destroyed and their faux-convictions deepened yet again.

Again, 4chan is an enthusiast website. You cannot expect to come on /v/ and tell people that they should pay a $400 paywall and an extra online fee for one or two games; it's not a real opinion that someone who is really into video games would hold. Go on any other board and present their equivalent opinion to liking Sony. You'll get told to fuck off on there, and you can expect the same on /v/. Makes sense to me.

Microsoft isn't even relevant to the discussion and people should probably just stop bringing it up. You rarely will see someone who worships Microsoft like they do other companies, such as Nintendo, Sony, various game developers, etc.

I'd say it is safe to assume most play on PC.
Anyone capable of looking at the state of the industry should.
Then you have your Sonyfags because unlike every other system this gen, the Playstation actually has some mother fucking games on it.
Next you have your Xboners because they are 12 years old.
They don't know any better.
They grew up with Master Chief and feel some kind of attachment to the character equivalent of a standee.
Lastly you have your Nintenyearolds who thought Nintendo was going to have some first party titles and were wrong.
Considering the numbers last gen I think it is fair to say there are millions of Nintenyearolds who looked at the WiiU and said
>No Nintendo, you fucked up

I rarely see anyone doing that. Every PC discussion is about games, sales, mods, various controllers / other hardware (keyboards, mice, etc.) and then Sonyggers come in and say, "Wah, you guys only care about graphics!"

To which people obviously disagree and explain that they're wrong, to which the Sonyggers then become angry and we see them again presenting the same stupid opinions in the next thread.

When sony posters retaliate, they get called shitposters.

You guys have no idea what it's like being a fan of Sony games, you think the occasional shitposter in your threads makes sonyggers look bad. Nigger I can;t even have fucking threads about the games I like because it instantly dissolved into shitposting from all fanbases.

I've always considered myself someone who liked Sony and Nintendo, having owned a PS1, N64, PS2, GCN, PSP, DS, Wii, PS3, 3DS, and PS4, though in the past four years I've grown more PC-oriented in my gaming focus. Never owned any iteration of the Xbox line, though I wish Xbros no ill will. I just always found Sony and Nintendo exclusives more appealing to my own preferences than Gears of Halo ever had to offer. Only thing really holding me off from getting a WiiU at this point is the ever looming NX dropping in 1 to 2 years (though there's no guarantee it'll even be backwards compatible).

According to Steamspy, MGR sold ~500k WORLDWIDE at a maximum price of $30 (most through sales though).

According to Famitsu, MGR sold ~400k physical copies on the PS3 in JAPAN alone, at $60. Based on the sales of other MGS games, it's safe to say that it sold at least twice this number in the west.

In other words, for each discounted PC copy of the game, Konami sold 3 full priced copies on the consoles, and if you look at their quarterly fiscal reports consoles do in fact make the most of their gaming profits. PC barely even gets mentioned.


There is a reason PC ports are shitty and delayed.
