    Companies would be foolish to release new consoles any time in the next 3 to 5 years. None of this is going away anytime soon.

      It’s still fucking ridiculous that billionaire literally just bought the world’s computing supply for a decade to build something no one wants and no one even knows how to make profitable…

      It’s getting to the point where it only makes sense if they don’t want us to have computers anymore.

        They’ve deluded themselves into thinking they can achieve full ai and take over the world. These tech billionaires got their money young and never grew up because of it

          Upside is that it means they’ll go full throttle until they smash into the economic equivalent of a pilon barrier. Maybe we’ll get lucky and see some of them kill themselves a la people jumping to their deaths at wallstreet when the great depression set in.

          Look a man can dream, and I dream of death and bloodshed.

      It’s not going to go away….ever. They’ve decided to control every thing and never let go this time.

      Right, but the fact that this is obvious means that anyone who DOES release a console in this time period is going to be able to capture a lot of market share since they have little to no competition.
