Total tangent: But I feel Apple‘s transition from PPC to i86 has been much more rocky than from i86 to ARM, primarily thanks to Rosetta, which is essentially „hardware accelerated emulation“. I feel like emulation has come a long way in the past few years. Xenia is doing great stuff for Xbox and Yuzu ist really great. Good times ahead I feel.

This has been an ongoing trend for years now. Microsoft wants everyone to rent GamePass instead of buying a game physically forever.

… or they don’t 🤷🏼♂️
To be honest: supply chains be damned, the contracts for a PS5 Pro/Slim will have been finalized going back years, the pre production can be postponed to a degree, but it will happen in one way or another. Even Nintendo couldn’t completely stop the Switch Pro from happening in the form of the OLED, even when they realized they wouldn’t need it. The same will happen with PS5 Pro/Slim.
How will Prigo survive this?
Getting good Apollo vibes, like this a lot!
Normally I won’t bet against Apple. They know best and if they don’t (HomePod, AirPods Max), they still do somehow down the line. They are just better at selling than anybody else in any industry ever. But I feel like the Vision Pro could be the first real and complete flop Apple has in this millennium: If they would have know how insignificant Google Glass and Microsoft HoloLens are and how hard the primary vision for Zuck‘s bleakest of bleak legless corporate metaverse looks, they wouldn’t have build a headset in the first place. VR/AR/XR has a singular use case with gaming and its not really relevant there either and none of the major tech companies wants to focus primarily on that. Apple was afraid of AR dominance by Google or Microsoft a few years back, probably, and started this project, but maybe they should have written it off.
