And yet Valve’s revenue was twice that of Sony Interactive Entertainment’s. Steam can run on a generic PC; Steam Deck and GabeCube are merely gravy. Storefronts are where the money’s made. Hell, haven’t PS5s been selling at a loss until recently? What’s 13 million times a negative amount?
I am all for the little guy. I looked up all the stats because of what you said. PS roughly 10 million estimated by end of year, Xbox roughly 2 million by end of year. Gabecube maybe around 60k per month with a total in 2026 of around 400k units sold. That will be roughly half of Xbox sales if they performed similarly the entire year.
Impressive start, but the PS blows them out of the water.
You’ve missed the point. Any computer can run games from Valve. Why buy a stupid expensive console when you’ve already got everything you need? This is why Sony and Microsoft are losing sales.
The original point was sales. I do agree with your point of view though. I just need to build a gaming computer for each gamer in the house. Six computers at today’s prices… Nevermind! I guess we are sticking with what we got for now.
It is estimated that Playstation sold 13 million consoles in 2026.
