PS6 and Next Xbox Coming in 2027? - Kinda Funny Games Daily 10.13.25

28:34Tim Gettys:And we will talk about a game that is just being announced now that is coming out on PS4 pretty soon, which is crazy. We're just at that place now where things are getting expensive. People are holding on to these consoles. So moving forward for them, it's going to be like Apple. It's like, we don't care if you didn't buy the last gen one. We're going to keep on going. We're just going to keep on doing this. We're going to keep on making it. And I know a lot of people, especially listening to this show that grew up in a traditional console space, they don't want to hear that. Which I did, yeah.

28:58I get that. But I'm with you, Roger. I do think that that is the future that we're going to. Will it hit 2027? I don't know that for sure, but I don't disagree with your logic at all.

29:09Tim Gettys:And if we were to actually fantasy book this and bring this out, as Karate in the YouTube chat says, PS6 shouldn't be until 2029, 2030. It's too soon. Yeah, I would probably say that too. I'd be like 2028, 2029, but it's just like, they're not going to stop. It doesn't stop them making money. We don't need it. Yeah, we do not need it. We do not need it. We have a pro that just came out. I want that clear. We agree. We do not. And also with the pro, like i you know this y 'all know this listening i love playstation i love tech i want to be able to play my playstation games as good as possible the ps5 pro has a lot of issues i know the pisser stuff like i've had a great experience with mine having said that totally unnecessary yeah like so far especially like the games that i'm playing and a lot of this has to go down i have to say this has to go back to the fact that i also am playing way more on pc like when i think about the last couple of games I played, like I played expedition 33 on PC.

30:03Why'd I do that? Because I wanted to be able to play on my, um, steam deck handheld. Cause I was traveling a lot and I knew it was going to be a severely less amazing experience, but at least I could play it. And then when I'm at home, I could play it with my decked out PC. I am in an incredibly privileged position that I could say what I just said of, I chose not to play it on my PS5 pro. Cause I want to be able to play it even better on a PC and portably, right? I understand that. But there's a lot of people that do have the same situation I do of having the choice. And when you have the choice and you're not choosing the PlayStation, what are we doing?

30:39Tim Gettys:Yep. Yep. Well, we have a lot more to talk about when it comes to Xbox and consoles, but we'll tell you all about that after a word from our sponsors.

Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless for$15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made$15 bills. But it turns out that's very illegal. So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch.

33:20Upfront payment of$45 for three months,$90 for six months, or$180 for 12-month plan required. $15 per month equivalent. Taxes and fees extra. Initial plan term only greater than 50 gigabytes may slow when network is busy. See terms.

33:29Tim Gettys:I'm going to go really quick to a super chat before we continue on. Brand Cakes asks Tim. Hey, Tim. Hey. Quick question. Which Pikmin game is the best to get into if I've never played any? I am the wrong person to ask that. You need to ask. Lakers had. Mike's also the wrong. Mike's going to say Pikmin 4. Is Mike here? No, he's not here. But I'm sure Pikmin 4 is actually a great answer. We will never know. Sorry. Here he is. Big Mike himself, everybody. We have a big question for you. Oh, wow. Joining the stage. Oh, wow. You look good. Michael. You know what I mean? Roger, I missed you. Hi, Roger.

34:09Tim Gettys:Miss you too, Michael. Mike can you believe that in a few weeks we're going to do the Silent Hill stream Can you believe in a few weeks Next week right? Mike and Roger are going to descend to darkness We're going to find the darkest pits and we're going to explore What are you guys doing? Give them the pitch Okay Tim what if I told you we're going to play a little game We're going to be handcuffed together Here inside the studio And we have to beat Silent Hill F With the kind of funny best friend support But if Roger wants to get some separation from me we have to play saw mini games created by Kevin and Nick where they've hidden keys around the studio to get a longer chain for these handcuffs Roger has to find these keys while dragging my ass around yeah I thought it was supposed to be a you and I thing yeah well you know I want to stay close so like I'm not gonna help at all and then we've also divided up the meal because of course everyone knows here the kind of funny marathon stream it's about the meals it's about the time spent together and Mike likes to eat big but this time I might not be able to.

35:10Tim Gettys:Yeah, we're going to split the meals. We're going to split the meals. We have to order one meal that we have to share. Okay. So we have to kind of game it a little bit. So you split meals. You're handcuffed together. You need the keys from the saw traps. So that we can get a longer handcuff. If you eat the meals and then you need to poopoo. Yeah, we're going to have a really long chain. We're going to figure it out. We have to still talk about some things. Mike is very. These are the questions that you will see how they answer. Next week. Next Friday. Next Friday. Next Friday. Next Friday, everybody.

35:40How's everybody doing? Y 'all feeling good? I'm just going to hang out all day.

35:43Tim Gettys:Brand Cake. No, I have a question for you. Brand Cake's asked Tim, but he's the wrong person to ask. What's the best Pikmin game to get into? Oh, man. I like the recent Pikmin, of course, Pikmin 4. I think a lot of people point to Pikmin 2, maybe 2-3 combo on that. But everybody's pointing to me and saying, play Pikmin 1 through 4. You can't go wrong, you know? But I think probably 2 and then 4 for me has been the most fun. Yeah. Lakers head, where are you at? I want you in the chat because he's the one that, like, he's the Pikmin man, you know? Oh, yeah. Story number two. Also, Roger, thank you for defending all of my old Xbox games.

36:17Great conversation about the Xbox. But, yeah, that is just, like, a nice layer of, like, something to think about with backwards compatibility and how hard they push. But also, like, moving into this next new generation. Hey, all these games that Mike has purchased over the years, I would still love those to come with me. How do we make that? Yeah. So, yeah, great job, Roger. on that.

36:36Tim Gettys:Oral Sanchez says, I bet Roger amputates his hand before the handcuffs even go on. I also want to clear, I do think there's no way that Microsoft doesn't preserve the backwards compatibility. Yeah, no, that would be a huge deal. I think Xbox will not exist before that happens. That'd be a huge, huge deal if they're not able to do that. Story number two, Target, Walmart will keep selling Xbox consoles despite Costco's move. This is from James Peckham over at PCMag. Some U.S. retailers are removing Xbox products from sale in their stores, but that won't be the case for either Target or Walmart. Over the weekend, a popular post on Reddit showed a user's local Target removing the Xbox section from its store.

37:17Tim Gettys:The post said, quote, the electronics manager says they will no longer carry systems, games, or accessories. The same manager told the Reddit user that all Target stores in the Kansas City area plan to remove Xbox products from sale. Some other users took to the comment section of the post to say they've seen similar cases in their local Target, and some said they hadn't seen Xbox consoles in their local Walmart for months. Now, Microsoft has confirmed that it won't remove Xboxes from sale at all Target and Walmart stores. In a statement to Windows Central, it said, quote, Target and Walmart, among other retailers, remain committed partners for Xbox consoles, accessories, and games.

38:04Tim Gettys:Mike, are you coming in here or are you just running around? Oh, Jesus. Like, he's actually just running around the studio. Man, this poor Xbox team, they can't catch a break. Give them a weekend. Give them one weekend, man. Break, man. These people have families. Week after week, month after month, they just can't catch a break on these Reddit forums, these Twitter posts, they can't catch anything, you know? Hey, team, we got stuff coming out in the future. Oh, shit, I'm going to make something up. They're never selling the console again. Boom. Fucking nose dive for the next month of the half.

38:36Yeah, man, look, we're in a not fun place, right? No. We're talking about, we have Reddit. We have target managers talking to Reddit users.

38:45Tim Gettys:You never want that. That's a bad spot. Hey, everybody, if someone walks out and you says, hey, I'm a Reddit user, don't talk to them. Just walk away. Just walk away. Yeah. So obviously, like, this is one of those situations where it is the definition of your location may vary, right? Where just because you anecdotally at your targets have this experience does not mean that it's everywhere. However, where there's smoke, there's fire. And what I will bring up, and people are going to say I'm a doomer about all this, and I simply don't care because I think that just I will be proven right over time.

39:18And that doesn't bring me joy because this reminds me of something very near and dear to my heart. Physical media, Blu-rays. All right. I fucking hate you. And this is how it started. This is exactly how it started.

39:31Tim Gettys:Oh, like some places are removing it. It's like, no, not everybody. Some places. Okay. Well, just this brand's not. And then whatever. And then Reddit users are going to managers being like, yo, Best Buy, what's happening? And they're like, yo, it's over. We are getting rid of them now. And then someone else was like, an article's posted. It's a whole doom and gloom thing. And then someone's like, no, no, no. Mine said this and mine said that and whatever. And then within a year, there's no more Blu-rays on shelves, period. So that, again, that's an anecdote in a different way. This is a different situation, but how different is it?

40:01Tim Gettys:It's not that different. And also, like, again, let's go back to the quote that Microsoft provided at Windows Central. Quote, Target and Walmart, among other retailers, remain committed partners for Xbox consoles, accessories, and games. Does that, that leaves room for the fact that they can just remove all Xbox stuff this generation and come back next generation, right? Like there doesn't, that doesn't say, oh, they're keeping all Xbox series consoles. Do not worry about it. It is just the Xbox brand exists and we're still partners with these people. So I, I'm with you on this. I don't think that this is happening because of an accident or a bunch of smaller places that are just being a little weird and kooky.

40:34Tim Gettys:These consoles are clearly not selling. And that's what's happening. The consoles aren't selling. It's not some weird gotcha thing. It's not, they're not selling the, the store sells things and the things aren't selling they're not selling and then all the prices just went up again i know so like they're not gonna they're definitely not gonna sell now like it's it's it's we're at the place where yeah also these these uh locations are limited on space so you remove a bunch of a whole xbox section you can double up on the switch section you could double up on the playstation section you can have a steam section or whatever the hell you want to do right like you can you can you can have all of these handheld consoles that are available you can have the xbox ally if you really want over there like there's a lot of other things that you can put in its stay that you know clearly xbox is they're not selling so yeah yeah i don't i i agree with you i think that when there's smoke there's fire uh but yeah i guess xbox and target and walmart are committed to the xbox brand one way or another story number three this is big for you tim psa pokemon legends spoilers are out in the wild ahead of its release this week ed nightingdale over on your gamer reports pokemon legends z a will release later this week on switch and switch 2 but already spoilers have flooded the internet's illegal rom sites already have unauthorized copies of the full game which has now been data mined for information as such if you're looking to avoid spoilers we advise being extremely cautious on social media until its games release on this thursday the 16th of october thanks to data miners the complete pokedex and all moves and items have leaked including mega evolutions on top of the those officially revealed by the pokemon company I also want to note right here, this is something I saw on Reddit, r slash gaming leaks and rumors, that people have allegedly figured out some form of source code and early builds of the game.

42:22Tim Gettys:So that's also floating around the internet right there. And going back to the article, what's more, there are already numerous streamers playing the game on Twitch ahead of launch. How fearful are you of this specific game being spoiled for you? Can this game be spoiled? Me personally, I'm cool on this one. Yeah. This one being spoiled, there's not. There's not much. Yeah, I mean, who the fuck? You don't know what you don't know. But Gen 10 stuff I'm a bit more sacred about. But even then, I'm not that concerned. What's Gen 10? The 10th generation of Pokemon. Scarlet and Violet were the ninth generation.

43:01Gen 10 will be revealed on February 27, 2026.

43:05Tim Gettys:Oh, okay. It'll be the 10th generation of Pokemon, celebrating 30 years of Pokemon. That's huge. Apparently someone said that there's Gen 10 leaks. Cool.

43:16Well, my life's fucked. No, but this sucks. This is the type of thing where it's like, God, we're so close. And I don't know how it happens with Pokemon every single time. They are so tight-knit and so good about not. They're so weird. They're so freaking weird about stuff. And somehow Pokemon games leak every single time. And this happens every single time. People get full-ass copies every single time. streaming it and then all the the surprises because yeah like the mega evolutions like the ones that are not i do want to find those out in game like i know it's not spoiler in the sense of like oh man this character dies or this character marries you want the reveal you want the moment you want the moment of like oh wow i didn't know that you know this guy would look like to get a mega evolution that doesn't even work you know um but yeah so that that sucks be safe out there I'm excited for Gen 10 I'm excited for Zaw obviously too Hell yeah

44:11Tim Gettys:Story number 4 Avatar Legends the fighting game was cancelled last year but now it's back with a debut gameplay trailer and a new developer whose entire existence is about giving games quote a second life This is from Wesley Yinpool over at IGN Kevin I didn't put the link in here I'm sorry about that If you can just go onto YouTube and type in Avatar Legends the fighting game and pull up the little teaser that posted yesterday that would be great Going back to the article, the pre-alpha footage trailer for Avatar Legends the fighting game has got fans of the enormously popular Avatar The Last Airbender animated series excited, but there are questions over exactly the type of game fans can expect and who's developing it.

44:49Tim Gettys:avatar legends the fighting game is described as being quote rooted in the spirit of uh elemental mastery its official blurb continues quote designed for both newcomers and veterans it channels the energy of classic fighting games while breaking new ground in movement style and combat expression built with a focus on fluidity responsiveness and online online integrity the game invites players to discover what is what it truly means to fight with purpose hand drawn in 2d it is crafted to preserve the style and expressive animation of the original series and we're looking at the trailer right now a little teaser that they showed at new york comic-con and it looks awesome yeah it's it's funny it really looks like those old like nickelodeon.com flash games yes but like and i love mega mega modern there was one back in the day i believe that was a fighting game that was on nickelodeon um website and i used to play all the time yeah it's funny because this uh first off love the name like unironically i'm like yeah this is how you you title an avatar fighting game i think it is it's work in progress but the name oh well then you don't actually i hate it you nailed it don't change it um but yeah this it's it's cool that we're getting so many fighting games like we are clearly in the the fighting game like yeah if not golden age i i might go as far as saying golden age like of course there's the like 90s arcade boom and all that stuff but we just have so much yeah high quality high quality stuff and e-sports is bigger and more taken more seriously than it's ever been and across multiple titles it's not like we just have one or two dominant forces like there are like six or seven viable options with more coming every year we have an invincible fighting game we're getting an invisible fighting game we're getting this it's like and i look at this and three four years ago if i read the story without looking at the trailer i would have been like okay good luck yeah now i see this i'm like good luck Hell yeah.

46:39I don't necessarily have faith, but I have hope, you know, and that's a hope I wouldn't have had years ago.

46:46Tim Gettys:New hope. Let me give you a little bit more new information on this because it's really interesting. Twelve player playable characters are expected at launch with many more released via a seasonal model. There are selectable support characters who, quote, influence your fighting style and grant special moves. The unique, quote, flow system provides movement centric gameplay. there's a single player campaign with an original narrative combo trials a gallery mode and best in class netcode and cross play uh going a little further they talk a little bit about the developer of the game uh according to uh the steam uh website it is uh gameplay group international acquires and reimagines commercial sorry sorry let me go around here the uh developer let me see if i can find the developer's name but they the it's underneath something called gameplay group international which acquires and reimagines quote commercially unrealized games it was founded by victor lugo who was for a time lead designer at iron galaxy working on killer instinct and philip mays who was managing director of australian uh games company mighty kingdom which has a number of licensed games under its belt you should read the entire article on ign they go into detail of like where because you've i don't know if you remember this game was like a thing and was like supposed to be worked with the people that made them fighting herds i don't know if you remember that yeah i mean everything you just said it's like oh shit i i take back like not having faith i have yeah they they were working on that game and then they that like was canceled like in like just a random press release of like hey this game is canceled like we didn't even know anything about it and then now this game is being brought back and it has a new team and that team is pretty unknown but it seems like they are under the guidance of at least people that are fighting game veterans.

48:25That's good stuff, man.

48:27Tim Gettys:Yeah, we have. Yeah. Exciting and it looks good. You know, Tim. Lakers head is in the chat. Yes, tell me. We have a Lakers head, everybody. Lakers head, I'm going to keep my eye over here. I think I saw Lakers. I think I saw Mike respond and say, see, I knew I was right. So I'm pretty sure that it was the correct answer. If the correct answer is all of them, I don't want that. Tell me the one. Tell me the one. Well, you know what? if we can figure out the one, that'd be pretty big news. I'm tired of big news. I would want something smaller. Maybe the tiniest news I need to know about. Where would I go?

49:04You go to our last story, the Wii News channel, where you can know all the small news items you need to know about. Don't question the Wii News channel. It comes whenever it wants. It comes whenever it wants. I distracted myself.

49:14Tim Gettys:Yeah, I know, I know. I'm in my head. I know, I know. Story number five, Assassin's Creed Shadows is going to get another switch. Sorry. Jesus Christ. Nintendo? Assassin's Creed Shadows gets another Nintendo Switch 2 leak, and it looks like it's going to be another game card. This is from Vicky Blake over at IGN. A French retailer has all but confirmed Assassin's Creed Shadows is indeed coming to Nintendo Switch 2, and it looks like it's going to be another controversial game key card. So just heads up for that. Eventually, that's going to be out and about. And that sucks. Obviously, not a fan of game key cards.

49:48There's reasons for them. Do I like that? No. but I will say Ubisoft so far on the good list for Switch 2 ports Star Wars Outlaws thumbs up across the board so hopefully Assassin's Creed Shadows it's a similar story

50:04Tim Gettys:I might try it out I will Vive VGC Lego Party and Tetris Time Warp will be both available to stream on Netflix this holiday on your phone you can play you can just connect to your phone you can just pull it up on your TV I love it is that how that works Yeah, that's what the article said at least. It's on your TV and you can use your phone as a controller. I don't know that I'd want to play Lego Party with a phone. I haven't played it. Yeah, I don't know. That sounds crazy. Yeah. Wait, you played Lego Party, did you not? No, I didn't. I wasn't there. It's a fucking blast. Yeah. It looked like you guys had a great time.

50:35It was amazing. Yeah. Like, so freaking fun. But you need the controller though, right? Yeah, I can't. Imagine playing a Mario Party minigame with a phone. I don't know.

50:45Tim Gettys:That's the way it got intended. re-animals demo the game by the original little nightmares devs is available on steam so i had to check that out from noble clover pit has sold 750 000 copies shout out to that team please use all that money all of that money and just make a little taxi goes room too fuck yeah dude from chris scullion at vgc a new toad jam and earl game is quote in the planning stage co-creator reveals who's the co-creator I will do the research on that I know Tommy Tallarico's involved is he? he's not co-creator no no no I'm wrong I'm just so wrong I'm absolutely wrong Greg Johnson

53:56Tim Gettys:Good is a member for 26 months. During the Tron Aries in review, everyone should watch the in review. I had asked if the movie could be better with Jared Leto. Opening weekend was worse than Morbius. Where does Tron go now? It goes away for another 20 years. And then it comes back when some executive says, we need IP. And then it's going to fail again. And then we're going to keep on doing this forever. Somehow even worse. Somehow even worse. I have full faith about it. Oh, it will be back. It will be back in 50. It will be back when my kids are ready to go see a movie by themselves. Again, that's what's going to happen.

54:26The only thing at this point I'd be okay with with Tron, and I don't even think this would be good, to be clear, but the only thing that I'm excited about is we're going to reunite Daft Punk. They're coming back. They're doing it. Joseph Kaczynski is coming back. He's proven himself after Legends was cool but not good.

54:42Tim Gettys:He's going to go in a real video game and record all of this. He's going to scan Tom Cruise. But now after Maverick, after F1, I want to see a Tron Legacy sequel. He's too expensive. He's going to charge a bag. They clearly don't care about making money. You know what I mean? God. I'm not even going to say that. Keep going. No, it's just so negative. Zaxon Galaxian. I like that name. 2027 is too soon considering the first three years got eaten by the pandemic. They can get more out of the current gen. imho 2030 would make the most sense i mean i agree with you i agree with every word you said but i don't think that's the reality we're in there's no way kebabs kebabs asked the question do ps4 versions of a game outsell the ps5 version i would love to see that i'd love to see that uh brand cakes we already talked about the pikmin stuff pal lock prince says first time long time wanted to say thank you to kind of funny for making my hour commute to work enjoyable and feel shorter and shout out to tim for always hyping my favorite artist of all time daft punk before i just said what i did that's hilarious hashtag let tim host what's moving what is happening my computer oh my computer's falling apart uh a lot of the skill 17 says upgradable and modular are different guys we know but i do feel like those two things are also getting all All of this is just merging into this weird point anyways at this point because of just how tech has advanced.

56:12But yes, the difference between a phone and a computer and a console are there's more similarities than differences now. And compared to how different is it, though?

56:22Tim Gettys:Because if something's upgradable, doesn't physically upgradable, isn't that inherently module? That's what I'm saying. Yeah. Yeah. So. You're wrong. That's not an else problem. That's a you problem. uh foxy steve says we have to ask ourselves what will the economy look like in 2027 2029 the next home consoles might price so many people out that the switch to peace pc makes more sense i actually was i was gonna bring this up i was gonna bring this up earlier of like i know it's kind of a crazy thought process but let's say that these consoles are 700 800 or whatever does the switch to actually gain some market share of if the console if let's say call of duty is on there all the maddens on there every single year they look about right they feel about right it's all cross play like i i don't see i mean i see a world of course where everyone's like they're loyal to their playstations they're loyal to their xbox ecosystems but i wouldn't be surprised if some people just say oh i could just buy a switch for 450 bucks and then just pick that up and then play all my games the two games that i play every year on it i don't know yeah it's a an interesting conversation there i think bringing the nintendo side into it that's a whole podcast to itself especially at this point because what you just said was the future for Nintendo that I wanted so desperately and I think that they've squandered it already out the gate of the Switch 2 launch with the third party inconsistency is all I'll call it.

57:42It hasn't been swing and miss every time but there have been too many. Elden Ring, I don't give a fuck what the reason is. I don't care if it's from software's fault. I don't care about whatever. It's like that is a title that you prioritize and you make sure can play and sing. Final Fantasy 7 Remake exact same thing and they're doing that it sounds like. But like these are titles that you use to prove to the people that might think about making the jump because otherwise no the people that are playing call of duty and madden are like oh fuck nintendo's for little kids you need the story and the sentiment to be oh no no nintendo got the stuff and that's i don't think the sentiment i don't think that's what it's going to be no and i don't think xbox gonna put xbox

58:20Tim Gettys:or microsoft is going to put in the work to make some type of connection with nintendo switch other than the fact they're just putting it on there right they're not going to make like an xbox branded Nintendo Switch controller that feels like it. It's just always going to feel like, oh, it's a Switch that plays Call of Duty. How quaint is that? It's never going to feel like the actual gamer's way to play that game. So I think that's the thing holding it back. If Xbox actually wanted to and said, hey, everybody, we're going to have a collab with Nintendo and actually make an Xbox controller that is a Switch controller, I think we have a different conversation.

58:49You just brought up a real good point. I actually see that future happening. I actually just don't see them putting in the work to make the game work. oh we'll see i mean they have to legally oh they have to put it on the on the console i think they

59:02Tim Gettys:have to make it work i mean i mean it runs on a series s at 60 fps i know but elden ring runs on a series s and it doesn't on the switch too you get what i'm saying yes i understand what you're saying yeah it's like i it the switch 2 has proven to be a system the devs need to put extra care in to making sure that it works yeah and i have zero faith they're going to do that with call of duty dcash stupid stupid situation i think it's going to run really well i think it's going to i hope so i don't see a world where they put out their biggest because they wanted to make a lot of money and i that is a huge marketplace for them and i mean i think people that is a place where some i can see people buying us that game twice potentially on a switch and also their console so i that's a big money maker for them i love it dcash 114 also has some thoughts says ps6 handheld with e gpu dock to it to do 4k on tv no shot no shot i don't i don't see them any doing any type of, ah, well, ah, well, well, well, now I'm talking myself out of it.

59:58Tim Gettys:EGPU, I think, is such a loaded word. Yeah. That's like a very expensive solution to them doing that. So actually, no, I don't think it's going to happen. It would be some type of pisser up-res situation. Yeah. Jew Roosten, seven, mega scrafty for the win. He got that fit on for real, for real. Ooh.

1:00:22You talking about a Pokemon?

1:00:24Tim Gettys:Oh, I thought I was talking about Mike. I was like, that's an insane way to talk about Mike. Mega Scrafty? I'm like, that's a good one. And if you were to see this guy, Raj, you're going to fucking die. But yeah, I... Is that a spoiler? Potentially. Okay, I don't like that. I don't know. I don't know. But yeah. Scrafty is a Pokemon. Gotcha. Toasty Toast member for one month says, So if Xbox goes hybrid with PC, then wouldn't you be able to play playstation games on it eventually absolutely absolutely i wouldn't be surprised if they if they uh if they uh actually do some type of like viral marketing there of like hey here's an xbox and then like just boot up fucking ghost of tsushima and just yeah yeah you can play these things on this thing i think it's actually going to be a pretty big selling point for them i mean i think isn't this future already happening with the ally right yeah but i mean like an actual like hey here's xbox xbox that can play playstation games technically yeah i mean again i there's no way that's not what happens next yeah uh jordan deeb says the data mining happened due to copies of za out in the wild but the gen 10 leaks are from the terror leak last year someone held on to them until today jesus christ uh dcash 114 has one last super chat of the day who is xbox hybrid for weak pc won't sell pc gamers an expensive hybrid console will not retain uh enough console gamers i i don't know it's that's a good question that's a good question for their marketing and who who it is for it's for me i that's the thing is like i do think it's again we're we're we know too much and xbox has made too many steps yeah that they just have a lot of baggage to deal with and i often bring up kind of funny as an analog of in terms of subscription services and in terms of just like decisions we've had to make we have to struggle with the same shit Xbox does of 10 years of decisions.

1:02:13And we're going to be on two Patreons. Now we want to be on one. We're going to offer memberships. We're going to do this. Every choice we make adds baggage and like just so much to just doing things how we want them to that. We can't just be like, we're doing it this way now. Yep. Cause like, even if we did that, not only is the audience going to be like, no, you're not. Yeah. But also the systems in place might not allow it. And I think we're just stuck there with Xbox right now. and the PC console. None of this should matter. We're at a point that these are close enough that once this is being sold, it's not going to matter.

1:02:45It's backend stuff. It's OS stuff. And it's ecosystems that Xbox has clearly been building in front of our eyes, all working together. It's just the Xbox console side of things is a thing of the past, I think. I think it needs to be. Or else this confusion will never go away. And that's not going to help them.

1:03:03Tim Gettys:They're going to name it some dumb ass shit, though. there's no way they name it in a clean way that actually makes any sense that's the issue here they're they're not going to say this is what they should have i should they call xbox pc i think it's xbox 2027 no they wouldn't xbox parentheses 2027 i think they're called xbox surface or something weird which they should no stay away from a brand that doesn't work i mean but it's a known brand and people like. No. I mean, it's people like it that use it. Use it. But it's not a known. Surface is not. It has no market equity. I do feel like there has to be some type of computer element to it.

1:03:42I think you know. You don't do that. It's just this is what Xbox is now. Get rid of the confusion. There needs to be no separation between Xbox PC and Xbox.

1:03:51Tim Gettys:Yeah. It has to just be Xbox. It has to. Yeah. Or else they're fucked beyond belief. You're wrong. From SoftSurf brings a great super, you're wrong, which I think is awesome. I put this in assets for you, Kevin. Regarding Elden Ring on Switch, Lance McDonald showed the latest build of ER at Gamescom in Australia, and it ran very stable at 1080, 30 FPS in handheld mode. Sorry to put that, yeah. So, looks not bad. I mean, again. It looks like a game. Hope beyond hope. Having said that, Nintendo, with the Switch 2 launch, they're at a point that they're they should not allow games to be shown off at trade events like this like officially that borderlands right because these are at nintendo boots am i correct there i'm pretty sure um because that to me is the thing i'm just like you can't be doing this or else you're letting the message get away and there are so many people that are not going to hear this not going to get the update and they're just like nah i don't believe it yeah but i mean it's also such a small audience that is like connected to the video game news of the of the daily variety but Look at the damage that can be caused by one person taking a picture at target.

1:05:02Tim Gettys:But then also the game comes out and then it's good. And then people don't care. Like my problem. I get what you're saying. It's not good optics. But the argument I'm making is it's, it's, it's not good optics to a, a smaller subsect of people, but they're the people that we're talking about. Sure. They're the people that need to be convinced that the switch to is a competitor. Yeah. Yeah. You get what I'm saying? Like it's not the randos. Is it? I think it is. I think it's the, the mass art audience, the mass audience of people, the millions of people that bought Elden Ring that don't really play that many video games that are locked into the Elden Ring world.

1:05:30Tim Gettys:They're like, oh, maybe I could buy a Switch 2 second play Elden Ring on the go. And I also like Mario Kart. Like, I don't know. I do think that that is the audience that you're looking for. Not, you know, us nerds that have Elden Ring on three different consoles. Like, it's a weird, I get what you're saying, and it's not good optics and it's preventable. And that's the biggest thing that I think we need to talk about. It's like, Nintendo could have figured this out and just been like, no Borderlands. It needs to be a solid 30 FPS before you bring to our booth or you show off the game. But yeah, it's a little weird.

1:05:57Tim Gettys:to end the show. Lakers head, super chats to finally get this out of here. I was on a work call when Tim summoned me. Sorry, real quick. I just want to point this out. Big in the chat says, I mean, I still don't feel convinced to play Cyberpunk. People can have long memories. I do think that they're, and again, I know that we're watching games daily. I know, I get that, but. But also we liked it when we played it. You know what I mean? Like when we played it at the Nintendo event, Cyberpunk. They're talking about Cyberpunk like five years ago. Gotcha, gotcha. I thought about the switch to, I get what you're saying.

1:06:28Tim Gettys:Yeah. And I agree with that. Laker said, says I was on a work call when Tim summoned me, the KFBF would should start with Pikmin two way better than Pikmin one. And it offers a nice challenge. So Mike claimed that he was right. Not right. I'll give, I'll give my credit for that. He said one and two. He kind of said every game possible, but he did. He did call out to the most. I'll give him that. I'll give him that. I kind of blacked out when he started saying that he was going to handcuff me. it was a whole time uh everybody this has been an apple awesome episode of kind of funny games daily where each and every weekday we run you through the nerdy news you need to know about live on youtube twitch and podcast services around the globe if you love what we do support us on the kind of funny membership with patreon or youtube to get all of our shows ad free watch us record them live and get a daily exclusive show enjoy the games cast next which is nick's reveal for his game of the year big deal everybody love it he's calling it early And the stream afterwards.
