Former PlayStation boss Shuhei Yoshida claims PlayStation still believes Xbox is their only true competitor, not Nintendo.
True, they have pretty different audiences..and some People just have both at home or a PS and a PC that emulates more or less everything from Nintendo.
Xbox hasn't been a competitor since the XB360. Last generation and this generation Sony has been running circles around Xbox. As for Sony vs Nintendo Sony runs circles yes but I don't really see Nintendo as competition. Nintendo does their own thing and it works.

Details are important. Console sales yes. Overall games Xbox seems to be doing fairly well in that department.
I think it's all PS fans have left at this point. Console wars were always a competition for fourth place behind Nintendo, PC and mobile. If Xbox evaporates into a hybrid virtual platform, then PS will be perennially left in last place.
Strange, I recall all those FCC documents and witness testimonies saying the exact opposite... Guess Microsoft doesn't know what it's talking about?
microsoft wanted to crush sony into dust and they had the money to do it, but with such weak leadership it was always going to fail
Had the money? They still have the money but the industry has changed since xbox 360. Microsoft is the number one publisher in gaming. I'd hardly call that failing.
The industry hasn't changed though, just ms, Microsoft was the no1 publisher for a month in december 2024, the actual no1 for fy2024 was tencent if game sales are all that's being counted.
Money doesn't mean you'll be successful large corporations have entered and failed before like Nec
Sony needs to build a studio that will do that too! the PS3 didn't start getting RPGs till well into its 5th - 8th year.
This gen needs to have major JRPGs from the onset for both PS4 and XBO.
Good to see Square forming new studio just to handle Console RPGs... Its time for them to get back to basics
Funny. Wasn't SE established to do just that? SE, consider this an open letter -- a short one at that: Just create an amazing JRPG and you're back to business. Sure, you can make it revolutionary, playful, or what have you. Just don't create a JRPG with the West in mind; otherwise, your game gets stuck between W and J + RPG.
SE, wanna know why Persona is higher than FFXV in the latest Japanese poll for the 10 most anticipated JRPGs? Because 1) It's a good combination of new and traditional, and 2) IT'S A GOOD GAME!
On the side note: If Bravely Default gets a console release, I'd buy it. But wasn't BD created by a dev that's not SE?
Shamelessly stolen from neogaf...
Now they can finally start development of FFXV
I'd really like some sequels or new installments from Square that are based on the Playstation classics.

This is the kind of support the Playstation 4 needs. Hell, i'd be content with just a Legend of Dragoon sequel.
They need a White Knights Chronicles type rpg that you can play with peeps online. Hell, make a rpg action game that you can go online and level and find loot!
Toukiden is an awesome type game like this. But let it go into serious detail like WKC.
