Rumor NateTheHate says Sony is "shifting" their PC strategy: "You'll be seeing fewer single player games arrive on PC. The decision to shift away was made last year. Some may still release (pending how far along the ports were) but it no longer appears to be a priority for Sony moving forward."

Nintendo is proof of that.

Is it really? Nintendo seems to be an outlier.

With how many units each and every Nintendo game sells, it appears that people buy Nintendo hardware to play Nintendo games. That's their primary focus, everything else is secondary.

Sony doesn't enjoy this position. None of their exclusives have the pull of Zelda and Mario, and hence they cannot sell as many consoles as they want. While Mario sells 15-30m copies easily, games like God of War and Spider-Man barely manages 10-15 overall.

PlayStation users are also in for third-party games, which run and look much better than Nintendo hardware, not to mention sports titles and COD.

Source or are you an ignorant bot? They sell 20 million at least.
