        They are a console manufacturer, a platform holder. It makes absolutely no sense to put your proprietary IPS on other platforms when you’re trying to sell your platform and system. It’s the entire reason that Nintendo still exists. Look at Microsoft, how many more nails in that coffin can possibly be put in it.

          Not if there is no impact on your console platform if a given market segment would never spend money on your platform in the first place.

          I bought Death Stranding and Heavy Rain on PC, I would not buy a Playstation just to play those 2 games.

          It’s their call of course, I think the era of consoles as a siloed platform is slowly coming to an end.

            I don’t think so at all. PlayStation and Nintendo want to sell hardware where as Microsoft does not care anymore because they can’t.
