Basically 3rd party exclusives can sway many gamers toward the platform they never intended to buy lol. So this is important to platform holders……..and those many people who won’t have enough disposable income to own both systems.

Although I was gutted to hear SF V goin to PS4 only, it’s a good play by Sony. Capcom, pffff. They’re splitting up their community with this……..and u can hear them on Capcom’s official blog. But yeah, Sony’s really tempting me now! But throwing up to $500 (including everything) for another system isn’t a small decision to make. Ideally, having both systems is the move, but let’s see how many of us will pull that off (kids and teens included).

However they are right it isn’t an issue. The whole point is to sell boxes not make people who only own the competition happy. Even if the deal only sells 1000 consoles that’s 1000 consoles not previously sold. They do tons of research before making such deals and know if it will sell systems or not. The sf5 deal is odd because it won’t sell many if any but its probably all Sony could afford after bloodborne and their current financial situation.

The solution is simple. Buy both consoles. Don’t give me that bs about there being no exclusives you like.because anyone saying that is a liar. Give them a chance and stop being a impish fanboy. Both consoles are well worth owning.
