Throughout the history of home game consoles, it's been notoriously difficult for a leader in one generation to maintain its leadership in the next generation. Sony, for example, went from dominance of the sixth-generation console market, knocking Sega out of the hardware business as Microsoft was gearing up for the original Xbox, to a third-place finish in terms of installed base with its seventh-generation entry, the PlayStation 3. Last November, Switched On discussed how Nintendo turned its back on much of what made the Wii a success, at least in that console's early days. Sony, though, seems to have carefully studied the lessons of the PlayStation 3 and has made many changes in the PlayStation 4 to address that console's challenges.
Eiyuden Chronicle is finally here, and The Nerd Stash points out the game's comparison to Suikoden, as well as the love Yoshitaka Murayama put into it.
Games Asylum: "Well, this is neat. As the name suggests, Wrath of the Mutants is the rarest of things – a genuine arcade conversion. With most modern arcade games being ticket redemption machines, this is something seldom seen. In fact, the last arcade conversion we can recall was Raw Thrill’s own Cruis’n’ Blast on Switch back in 2021. This is also based on an older iteration of TMNT, harking back to the series from 2012-2017. It’s essentially breaking franchise continuity (we’ve had two different iterations of the Turtles since) and could even be considered nostalgic for a select few – those who grew up with 2012’s Turtles are probably in their late teens."

Why do articles keep saying the PS3 finished in 3rd? They finished 2nd.

Ehm, the processor inside the Ps4 is NOT a CPU, it is an APU. The CPU part inside the APU may not be that powerful, but the APU as a whole is the most powerful APU AMD has EVER produced, and most likely the most powerful APU in the entire world.
Then again, neighter the Ps4 nor the Xbox one have a dedicated GPU. They do however both have a GPU inside their respective APU's.
So judging the processor's strenght depends highly on your point of view. And time will tell if they really are powerful or not.
