The Nintendo Switch 2 reveal reminded me how much I take my Xbox for granted
Don't follow news much?
Sony are stockpiling consoles for a reason.
Where did I indicate that? It's just funny that all the breathless predictions of how many consoles certain people expect Sony to sell this year take no account of the tariffs.

Nintendo churn out endless GOTY contenders.
Xbox churns out…

I understand your squeaky outrage, because clearly on NeoGaf, every single thing mentioned in every discussion on the forum always relates 100% to the thread title.
Anyway, it relates to the topic because the "xbox has no games" meme is a very tired Sony fan talking point and was mentioned more than once in this thread. Sony fanboys chose to insert themselves into this topic. Clearly mentioning the tariffs hit a sore spot for you.
Xbox Series is not made in the US but as an American company they may be given more leeway than the Japanese companies.
I was talking specifically about the PS5 but you wanted to fudge the topic because you know the tariffs are terrible for Sony. As I said, they are spooked enough to be stockpiling consoles.
It's amusing that none of the breathless predictions on here of PS5 sales in the US this year took the tariffs into account.

Like Jizz, I am also English. The tariffs don't mean shit to me.I understand your squeaky outrage, because clearly on NeoGaf, every single thing mentioned in every discussion on the forum always relates 100% to the thread title.

I mean he's right. Xbox play anywhere is awesome, game pass is way better than switch sub expansion pass. The series S is cheaper and more powerful than the Switch 2. People have this caveman mentality of looking at things in 2 dimensions either "thing good" or "thing bad" there can't be any nuance or complexity. Xbox does do something's better than Nintendo, they certainly aren't charging $80 for Xbox One style games. The Wii u raised prices to $60 because it brought Xbox 360 era gaming capabilities. The Switch 2 is bringing PS4 era capabilities but it's raising prices higher than PS5 era games. And people wanna say that's better than what Xbox or even Sony is doing? Ridiculous.
How the Nintendo Switch 2 makes Xbox look even better

Sonytoo. No topic around Xbox can go for long without Sony being dragged into it. I've noticed it occurring in the Switch 2 topics more frequently too.

The Switch 2 reveal showed me 5 Exclusive Games I want to play this year (so far).That's 5 more than what's been announced for Xbox thus far.

Trying to vilify competitors and push their own products as the "consumer friendly" alternative is MS's and its shills modus operandi. They did the same with Google and Sony trying to paint them as evil and themselves the "good guy". Strangly nobody batted an eye anymore once they started charging high prices with the introduction of Redfall though.
Clearly it will effect all the companies to some extent, but it's bad news for Sony for this year in particular with GTA 6 on the horizon.
I'm aware of this. However, it's not unreasonable to think Microsoft will be in line for tariff waivers or exemptions on specific products. Sony and Nintendo will certainly not be.
Analyst: Trump will waive Apple’s China tariffs so it doesn’t ‘lose to Samsung’ - 9to5Mac
One major firm has shared predictions for the US market in 2025, and Apple getting exempted from Trump’s new China tariffs is on the list.

Apple got such exemptions during the first Trump administration. We'll see how this plays out.
They do to Sony.
