The benefits of console vs PC gaming is essentially gone. What exclusives are there outside of Nintendo. Nintendo being the only company that didnt try to compete for best graphics this keeping their products cheap.
How cheap are Nintendo products actually though? I have a switch 1 I got as a gift forever ago that I mostly use for indie games and monster hunter, but out of curiosity I checked to see how much SSB Brawl or BotW were, and that shit is still $60.
You want first party nintenslop, you pay through the nose.
I just bought Ender Lilies and Ender Magnolia for like $30 together instead. Lilies has a wonderful soundtrack.
It's insane that people consider an exclusive a "benefit." The only people that exclusives have ever benefited are stock holders.
It had justification when consoles had custom architectures, and pushing other innovations. The last innovations were the 360/ps3 and Switch. Consoles were actually different in capability from each other during the 80s and 90s. They also had a different capabilities than a PCs, which started converging when 3dfx and Nvidia came around.
