Could the PlayStation 5 Pro be the titan of technology that fulfills our 8K gaming dreams?  Plus, we don't just leave it at hardware—get ready to mark your calendars with the exclusive titles dropping this year that are sure to keep your thumbs busy and your hearts racing.

Now, don't think we've forgotten about the other gaming giants. Our crystal ball might not be perfect, but it's giving us some pretty clear visions of Microsoft's and Nintendo master plan for 2024, from sleeker Xbox designs to Game Pass expansions that could change the way you play. And yes, we've got the scoop on that Indiana Jones title that's whipping the gaming community into a frenzy. Meanwhile, Nintendo fans, we haven't left you in the dust; we're talking about all the new adventures awaiting you, from a solo Princess Peach escapade. Every console has its day, and we're putting the spotlight on what could make or break their upcoming year.

 Keep your headphones close and your controller closer; it's going to be one heck of a ride.

Speaker 1:

Let's do this. Welcome everybody to another episode of the Game of Traffic show. I'm your host. Mike Sansa Tilly, my co-host, simply amazed what I'm doing today. Everybody get up for amazing. On today's Game of Traffic show, we're going to talk what to expect from PlayStation, microsoft and Nintendo Switch for the year 2024. Mr Amazing, are you hype or are you hype for this? Absolutely man 234 will be bigger than others, yo yo yo Know what we're going to start with the king of gaming right now PlayStation. Mr Amazing, you want to start it off.

Speaker 2:

Why not man? So PlayStation might come out.

Speaker 1:

I'll start it off, since I'm a PlayStation fanboy. Go ahead, playstation. Let's start with hardware. Alright, you know what I'm saying. So PlayStation 5 is now three years old and the reports of a PlayStation 5 Pro coming out this fall, mr Amazing, what do you think about this?

Speaker 2:

I think it's about right. Usually, if we look at the PS4 going back, it was within three to four years On that time frame where we saw hardware come in. So I think we're within that fall too. We're going on four years now in November. So it makes sense and I do expect that to happen, but you think it's necessary, mr Amazing.

Speaker 1:

At the time, 4k started kick-in and it felt it was necessary to get the upgrade for Mid-Gen.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you know why? Because guess what it's on my AK right.

Speaker 1:

I knew you were going to say that it's on my AK.

Speaker 2:

So why not you people? For those who have the money, who have the options for it, why not? So yeah, I say go for it. I don't see why not. And for those who want to get another who probably had a digital, did not think about getting a more powerful, you know the one with a disc why not? But then again, if you go to a Pro, they might just make it all digital. I'm thinking. But who knows?

Speaker 1:

I think I'll make it. They either do it still both.

Speaker 2:

So then, for those who have digital, they want to go to a Pro. This will be. I mean, this is probably the best line to get one, and maybe it'd be standard with a bigger drive, I'm guessing.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, this would be the tattoo of this drive. Yeah, like the slim right now. According to Tom Hennessey of Inside Gaming he claimed this a couple months ago a PlayStation 5 Pro will be arriving November of this year.

Speaker 2:

Okay, does that make sense? How this season?

Speaker 1:

I mean he also made an announcement for the PlayStation 5 and Portal, so he's been coming through.

Speaker 2:

He's been on fire.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he's been coming through with his predictions, not predictions with his leaks. Also, giant Bomb Bomb reported Jeff Garvin. Then he also confirmed in this leak the PlayStation 5 Pro is in existence.

Speaker 2:

Okay, so this definitely happened in 2024.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah.

Speaker 2:

This is pretty much a lock in then.

Speaker 1:

You know what I'm saying. Is that something you feel you're going to get?

Speaker 2:

No, no, not in the best way, you know. I don't think it's something I'm going to get. I mean it would be nice to have, but it's not something I need to get. What I need to get is a goddamn hard drive, but not the Pro man.

Speaker 1:

Yes, a new SSD card.

Speaker 2:

Yes, that's what I definitely need.

Speaker 1:

Yeah. So I mean, look when I get it, yeah if I get it.

Speaker 2:

But you know I'm not going to lie to you. I have been noticing a little bit off topic. Are we on topic?

Speaker 1:

Yes, you are, I noticed that.

Speaker 2:

I noticed what I'm playing. I've been on the Spider-Man Heavy, spider-man 1, for those who want to know. I noticed that every time I play it'll just cut off. The game kept cutting off. I don't know if that's my sister the game that was doing that, or was that the PlayStation 5 that was doing that? What, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what, what.

Speaker 1:

Ammofully playing, so it gets you a chest, the only game that does that to.

Speaker 2:

That's what it gets, because that's green and maybe that's it, maybe the game.

Speaker 1:

Check the game.

Speaker 2:

It might be the game. It might be the game. I beat the game already, so whatever.

Speaker 1:

Anyway Neb V Brexit. Here we go, Mission accomplished yeah right, mramazo Pig holden St war To place station five pro that supposedly poses coming out this year, this fall. This is how they season.

Speaker 2:

You know, I would like to see if they do drive, which I know I like to see not color waves like controllers. What do you never say? Color ways, the different color ways of it. I think I think I've been talking about things as much as the games to happen on foreign of it. Man, different color waves like the controls, like you know, different color way than the red blue. I think they, when they call the pro, they have offer different color waves. I think I'll be kind of cool, man, you get a custom like that when you purchase it.

Speaker 1:

They do that, they were, they were, so you, the. The plates is dead, I know.

Speaker 2:

I say the play but like my thing is for those who do, covers what you call it for both, say for those who do orders. You know they could be like you when you put your order. Oh, I wanted in red, I think. I think I'll be a cool option to offer.

Speaker 1:

Custom plates.

Speaker 2:

I Launch yeah, I think that's a cool throw in, but I know this is gonna happen.

Speaker 1:

I think the main thing is the PlayStation Pro would do this, play all PlayStation generally games.

Speaker 2:

I think that might be an option. I think I think that was.

Speaker 1:

I'm not a bad man.

Speaker 2:

That might be happy.

Speaker 1:

I'm sorry, I've discussed Saying that that's. My wish is they could play all the PlayStation generation games natively, digitally or by this yeah, I think that might happen.

Speaker 2:

I wouldn't be surprised if it does happen.

Speaker 1:

But may ask the question we think the price will be.

Speaker 2:

Good, good question. Uh, so the current Sony right now sits at what 399 right for the digital digital digital?

Speaker 1:

digital. This is the digital one is the.

Speaker 2:

This is a 49. I'm gonna go to this, so this is 499. So I think it's gonna be about that ballpark, but let me reframe, let me our backtrack.

Speaker 1:

That was the old digital one, but the new one, slim version, is a lot more expensive, about $50 more expensive.

Speaker 2:

So I think the price is gonna be the same.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I think, I think we for 600 bucks.

Speaker 2:

That's kind of high this way, that price the previous PlayStation pro is so 14 million.

Speaker 1:

That's good.

Speaker 2:

What's you mean?

Speaker 1:

That's not bad. I thought my soul 20, but 14 million.

Speaker 2:

That's not bad at all actually, but that said, I don't think it's gonna Use a bad price. I think you got to keep about the same ballpark, or maybe you go $50 more. I just feel it's just it is, but like it's it is for the two years, but it can also be a big selling point and I think, going on money, you got a free mistakes, so I think what?

Speaker 1:

if, but if it was to offer a plan all place in generation games Would you get it and and the upgrade, upgrade the frame rate and the graphic.

Speaker 2:

Well then, of course, because then you'll be selling out of a big time loss. Oh, that's what? At that price you got a bunch, because I'll be a southern point.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I was some point. Yeah, you be like, hey, would that ties you and maybe others.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, cuz. Then now I would I would do is I would sell mine or a trade mine in, source that. So I'll suddenly pay $600 flat. Maybe I get a cool 150, cuz you know these stores are. Let's not sell to someone else and then Use that as an advantage to get the problem from there.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I think that would be a big selling point if they could play all generation PlayStation games. Yeah native leave digitally or by this.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, exactly, exactly. Because once that, I would say, summer hits and you start seeing less productions of the PlayStation.

Speaker 1:

Yeah because they're gonna start pushing in your models in yeah, then we notice this is gonna be official. Okay, let's make sure you're not. You're not talking about the place in the slim, but the older model, fatboy model.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, then that's how you know those, because they know just be those two minus slim in the pro.

Speaker 1:

Mr Mason, let's go to accessories. Last year, playstation came out with what mr Mason VR to Portal, new headset and a PlayStation 5 slim with a tattoo. This drive, mm-hmm, mr Mason, well, detach for this drive. Okay, miss Maze, what do you think about this year? What do you happen?

Speaker 2:

I think, because we what we spoke about earlier before, I think we're gonna see more Controllers for those with disabilities.

Speaker 1:

I expect more that they didn't have one that came off. Yeah, I mentioned that.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think we'll see more of that and more in that and have frame. I think I'll probably see.

Speaker 1:

Another one knows you might, you might, step, might happen.

Speaker 2:

I wouldn't be surprised if we see another. Um, I Know those, those hi at tech control. We call them again. The Is the edge right was called again.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah do edge.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, do edge. I think we might see some kind of iteration of that beyond. Switch another one. I wouldn't be surprised if we see that.

Speaker 1:

We think price point for that, oh, the cheapest one's 200 bucks, yeah.

Speaker 2:

So I'm saying it's gonna be around that price it was. We'll see that. I expect that and I expect more Animated controls. Are you know when I say what I mean by that is like your whatever game beginning gonna have you get your party have a controller. That I expect some of that as well.

Speaker 1:

I don't.

Speaker 2:

I don't see too much in that market beyond switch you, so it's more aesthetics.

Speaker 1:

I think it's be more aesthetics okay, and um any kind of innovative features okay, hi, mr Mason, let's go to services PlayStation plus Services. So what, mr Mason?

Speaker 2:

a big pricey crease with the amazing sad to say but I think that's that's shocked the world.

Speaker 1:

Baby Shocked the world of price increase. No, I know to the point of Michael.

Speaker 2:

No, guy real more. Yeah, I don't have it, I actually do.

Speaker 1:

I'm a. I'm a by the Lord. I'm gonna get the lower tier one year, same for dollars. That's all.

Speaker 2:

I got. I got. The three more was just not miss. No sense for me to get that, but Miss.

Speaker 1:

Mason can ripped off. Sony love that, like we love mr Mason they do?

Speaker 2:

they get a 40 bucks every three months. Thank you, do the math Y'all. That's a lot of money to getting out of me.

Speaker 1:

I missed the amazing Um, I have nothing you say well, service. I think it was just gonna remain the same.

Speaker 2:

I don't. I think the person go up. I think it's another price like this year. It might not, but I don't think it'll be a big joke they can't do the price I'm okay, we'll see no price.

Speaker 2:

I remember I'm very pessimistic and I see a price like and in a year You're gonna get hit with the hey guys were raising it by buy a small portion of a dollar each thing. It'd be something small, not a big job like last year. See Netflix, you'll see. Remember I said it, you're gonna see a price hike and my, it might not be all the tears. Neither I would. It might not be all the tears it might be. What they might do is they might price, they might jump the Lord's air price, which would entice people to go to the higher tier price.

Speaker 2:

I'm like man, I'm gonna go up to this tier. I wouldn't be surprised you do something like that because that's how you make your money, so I don't think a price like some happened. Heck, I think I'm all the systems now after what they did to us last year. I will see if I said it. I said it today, in January 2024. I said it.

Speaker 1:

I Said it. All right, mr Mason. Mr Mason said it, but doesn't mean it's true. All right, mr Mason. Let's go to the key point games. Mr Mason, I'll go with some of the games that be coming out this year for the PlayStation. Mr Mason, most of us are making most most of our first party games. Also, some second party games that was exclusive to the Sony place. That's, mr Mason, fan of fantasy, rebirth coming out February 29th. Mr Mason, what do you think about that?

Speaker 2:

Everybody can't wait for. I mean, that's, that's everybody's favorite final fantasy. If you make a poll, so that's gonna be a big, big selling point for them. So the remake it wasn't, you know, never rebirth, yep. So I think it's gonna be good Constantly.

Speaker 1:

School's a form I not fighting for it is for the PlayStation cuz remember they wanted to several months, for a couple months, I don't know how long but that was a confirmed though.

Speaker 2:

Okay, we did a top of a night. It wasn't confirmed, Okay. So we don't know yet We'll see.

Speaker 1:

Speaker 2:

Right around the corner.

Speaker 1:

That's all go for now. I'm not going down the walk. Is there's no dates for other games? Probably you know the five games that didn't announce as a yet hopefully, because we more than that. That's the fun of first party. Yeah that's the main thing. We don't see anything from the first party. Oh, but step hell, dive is and conquer a console school, so which we don't know when's gonna happen. All right, mr Mason, anything else you want to say about the game partners?

Speaker 2:

Well, yeah, you're not gonna talk about what we expect to see I.

Speaker 1:

Don't know what's a special Sony I do. What more GTA?

Speaker 2:

6 trailers no.

Speaker 1:

But that's not Sony. Thing.

Speaker 2:

You talk about exclusive.

Speaker 1:

Everybody Xbox, I mean that you'll see in the switch. Yeah, but.

Speaker 2:

But now I mean we're gonna have more news about Death Stranded 2. Yes, well, I'm hoping we see it there about uncharted, because it's definitely not happening seven years now. I didn't even take not happening.

Speaker 1:

So I think we're gonna hear somebody uncharted and I think we're gonna hear it's not happening now see another one.

Speaker 2:

I think we should be here from sucker punches go to Sashima. I think we need to hear something about them yeah and maybe, maybe, what you wanted forever, yeah, but what I'm really really hoping for what for Sony is the hair selling from bungee about a big multiplayer game. That's what Sony misses out on. So I'm hoping bungee can, because bungee they're no for the multi-producing multiplayer game. So I'm hoping bungee could bad. A big enough for us because they're, they're, do they do.

Speaker 1:

The games of being delayed. Bungee know what the hell they doing right now.

Speaker 2:

Well, we'll find out, but they're, they're, do, they're doing. Hopefully we hear something from them.

Speaker 1:

But you heard, you know what, all the rumblings going on. Oh, the cuts. I didn't know that someone class so many places so we class at your workplace. I didn't know that either what the bleep is going on why two? Ways. That's what you do, but I do hope for that's why it gets off 250 million dollars.

Speaker 2:

The freak is going on, hey yeah, dude, you gotta do man yeah okay, okay, let's go, just go.

Speaker 1:

Okay, mr Mason, anything else you want to say?

Speaker 2:

No, but I do hope from you know, I do hear from something. One of those.

Speaker 1:

I don't know, I don't know what. No one's back Sony I I'm still hoping that Sony will give free VR games.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think they need to feature. Each VR gives a bit more. I feel like they don't Advertise the view, didn't even have a sale.

Speaker 1:

This how this, you know. Try to boost it up, make it.

Speaker 2:

Do you think, do you think for Sony, since the poor such a hit, they might take the portal to a next level, quite, cloud gaming. Cloud gaming, yeah, but I'm thinking more like I'm making an actual handheld. You don't think so? Yes, you know. No, it's because I don't think they spend.

Speaker 2:

It's the port of the southern way, so it's not happening, the part of it really well I think, as you start out small and you see how big it is, then we like, hey guys, I don't think to drop this here, obviously, but I think maybe they might be thinking like guys, what if we make this an actual handheld? Oh, I'm gonna put it out there. I'll put it out there Not happening.

Speaker 1:

We'll see that not happening. They might do cloud gaming, stream cloud gaming to a yes, maybe that.

Speaker 2:

I see well that you can do. That's not a problem, that'd be a lot easier to do in a certain.

Speaker 1:

Maybe a software update and a software update that.

Speaker 2:

But other than that, no, I'm gonna see, but I do agree with you a cloud gaming wouldn't be would be feasible, mr.

Speaker 1:

Mason. Let's go to guess who Xbox man the weekly, my bag. Xbox my back. Let's go to hardware portal leak due to the FTC ruling. Mr Mason, we could might expect a refresher Xbox series X this year and a series s, mr Mason.

Speaker 2:

I guess it's okay. They don't have nothing selling on the first party, so Amazing yo, this is amazing.

Speaker 1:

The one who stated in a previous episode yes, that Microsoft is gonna be the king of I'm thinking by that, I'm gonna Roll back on my statement in for a PlayStation and for the Xbox and see what say both of them. It takes us a long time for these games to come out, I don't know what to expect for these companies.

Speaker 2:

Agree, a game's course. Some of these studios are not. Weren't around for just a year, michael did. Some of you there, quite, are Decades old. So these dudes have to be cooking something where they got purchased.

Speaker 1:

But it tastes. So what's my money? To build these games up? Okay and no, I think it's a long. Just takes much longer for games to come out them before it does because they first of all the anticipation.

Speaker 2:

It's big, the once you got a big fun. Look at like a game, like spider-man. Between 2018 to 2023 five years. I'm gonna take five years to make a Second.

Speaker 1:

You know big game like that game, like Stella Blaze been productive on me over six years. Yeah, and then even let me one we're gonna jump into Xbox.

Speaker 2:

They get stalker to that. He's always be coming off forever. But what boy can it come out? Because it's a Ukraine based game.

Speaker 1:

But you can't control that, that's.

Speaker 2:

I'm saying like this thing, but then there's a pandemic, there was this, was this something. So you can't control something like that. You can't control, I agree with you. But, um, that said, I do agree with your last statement.

Speaker 1:

Yes, I don't know like a, but with the hardware, back to the hardware thing. Series X will be smaller. Okay, according to the league, two, two terabytes. Yes, okay, without an optimal disk drive. This is what you said. You talked about the s, the X or the X good cuz I.

Speaker 2:

What about the X?

Speaker 1:

I didn't like how bulky it was beyond switch you, yeah, so I won't have a disk drive coming with it. So it won't be a tower drive like like the tower drop around, so like some people's garbage cans. Okay, the property might put, like you know, like either something you attach a disk drive to it, a little kind of awkward. We look at the places, did X and job what they did Okay. So I gotta get a price for that. And it also will come out Refresher s Okay listen.

Speaker 2:

Mine in the start is waiting for me. You guys all know what you need to do for me to get it.

Speaker 1:

What give?

Speaker 2:

it to you. No free god damn gives them war. That's what you gotta do.

Speaker 1:

So eight else for hardware. Mr Mazon, you want to talk?

Speaker 2:

about? Do you think, even though I know the answers, no. Do you think Microsoft even cares to entertain the VR world? No no what about the portable world? No, I don't think so. No, okay, you have to throw it out because, oh yeah, this is the.

Speaker 1:

Sabbath there's some kind of leak for somewhere.

Speaker 2:

I wouldn't mention that you're right, I guess I agree with you, so let's go to services, mr Mason, what do you think will services for Microsoft?

Speaker 1:

You know they have the game pass, the king of all game passes, the great, excellent price and you want to spend hundreds of thousands games.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think you see gay passing even more everywhere. You see when your mobile phones are you. I had you see them everywhere.

Speaker 1:

That's what I think I mean you price. I think we will see more backlog of old blizzard games and games. Yeah, the game pass flooded. Yeah, I agree with you on that one and I and the price increase, yeah, oh yeah of course, and I think I'm not positive Actually.

Speaker 2:

No, I'm gonna retract that, forget it. We could continue, mike. No, mr Mays, press yourself. No, no, no, no. I take that I was gonna say maybe something stupid people. I've been, he should have taken.

Speaker 1:

You should take back what he's about to say. I take it back. All right, mr Mason, let's go to games. Mr Mason, you want to see, you want to take this one.

Speaker 2:

Well, the one I was starting. Well, I already mentioned it was stalker to. Maybe we might finally get that this year.

Speaker 1:

It's not a tool I have that by this Hellblade to okay, you know saying of our no saying, and also, I think this is a mention, I don't know, new games for gay bastards come, I don't know the biggest one.

Speaker 2:

I mean I might not be big, for me news when we play this game, but it's actually a very big game. It's a Microsoft flight simulator 2024. That's a very big selling game for them. I mean, we don't play, but it's it's. It's like, for example, it's like what people tell me oh, golf games sold this. I'm like that.

Speaker 1:

Let me that much money.

Speaker 2:

When the back of the days, when the EA golf games.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah. But come on, we know it's partly because the title was yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

But like I, didn't expect to sell them Must be that great.

Speaker 1:

So you want me to get hype? No, but you.

Speaker 2:

My seat makes a lot of money. My guy, you mix a lot of money it does you taste flys to me.

Speaker 1:

Send 20 mil copies, 10 mil copies.

Speaker 2:

This fun. I was twice similar, wasn't. The last one was 2021, I think. How much did that sell this year with 2020? The notes with 223 he came up this past year.

Speaker 1:

I'm using this, so I can't tell some game pass, but these two have numbers of downloads. Come on, mr Maison.

Speaker 2:

Oh, anyway, as I looked at it, let's continue. No, what are the kids you talking about?

Speaker 1:

I don't really know, cuz I don't know what's coming out Well for my Microsoft I like to do it for this.

Speaker 2:

A big hit for them, of course, you know, for the game of force, a game obviously doom. Don't they got the doom zero rumor, doom here. Yeah something like that.

Speaker 1:

I forgot it's called when you're probably introduced in Indiana Jones game.

Speaker 2:

That's gonna be big cuz they be advertising that game for that. It's not even dropped in any advertising.

Speaker 1:

It's been mentioned. Yeah, but now we're gonna figure. Now, I believe it is a school suit to Xbox.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, that's definitely exclusive, so that should be big, I guess you get there on Charlie fix of Xbox. Yeah, I guess, and I'm guessing maybe some more news on fable? I'm I, that's one of my favorite games. Also, we are, I do. Yeah, I think, because they remember the teaser that their Xbox show yeah so we, I think we get we born, use the people playing the girls ugly.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, which I mean she wasn't most attractive woman.

Speaker 2:

These are supposed to be like oh.

Speaker 1:

People. So you get a little like come on.

Speaker 2:

These are not real people, yeah, but the glass looks smooth, though they always do. Hey was good, oh shoot.

Speaker 1:

Hey, he's lined up properly.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, we do man.

Speaker 1:

Even that time Yo, you brothers got a haircut, none.

Speaker 2:

And the biggest one obviously is I talk about it all the time is maybe get some news on obviously.

Speaker 1:

I'll be interesting.

Speaker 2:

I think that Would do. But I also expect Microsoft to drop something we're not. We don't really know, it's not on our radar.

Speaker 1:

Perfect dark being good to hear football. Probably that would be ideal.

Speaker 2:

So I kind of expect that as well. So we'll see. I mean it's kind of sucks, cuz you know I am big on Microsoft. I am big on them ever better than all the other consoles this year. Game wise, game, make clear, game wise. But they're not even teasing me of what.

Speaker 1:

I can see. But but as the astros come, it's made it say in the previous podcast Well, we'll get back to that. We'll get to the astros in a few minutes.

Speaker 2:

All right, we'll go in there. We'll go in there.

Speaker 1:

All right, okay, mr Mason. How about accessories for Microsoft? I think, similar, didn't have it, I think that the special controls with people with special needs, that I dance like they we came out with? Yeah, they did that. Okay, you know but and I think it was the high and control of where lesson price of the elite yeah okay 125. I thought about getting it, but I didn't never did but you know the one that you have now.

Speaker 1:

I know the big one that came with it. I Said I just I'm right, I'm not playing the other control. You know what?

Speaker 2:

control not be good for what nice to you later Was good for my call duty.

Speaker 1:

The damn numbers. Let's hope, mike don't say they want to fight some numbers.

Speaker 2:

So you said flacid 2023 dropped right in.

Speaker 1:

There was one place to be named never sold 50 million copies. Oh, let's find out.

Speaker 2:

Okay, microsoft lights in the Unit. So 1.6 million units old, yes, what year was that?

Speaker 1:

No, he was that, but the latest edition sold to me.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, how can they sell 50 million copies without Fifty million Freak out of here?

Speaker 1:

At the game of traffic house.

Speaker 2:

I know I got you for that. She plays both for them, but she plays Xbox way more if a game is offered up for.

Speaker 1:

I don't, I don't know, I did, I disagree. No, I disagree.

Speaker 2:

Monkai game only I disagree, I disagree well, we could bring it back to the show.

Speaker 1:

We can act. We'll go count the game or see what she does the game pass to.

Speaker 2:

But remember if a game is up for most of the she's getting on the Xbox, she's 99%, she's got a box. She mostly only has exclusives for the Sony.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but I don't know, I disagree. No, I call right now.

Speaker 2:

Call right now. Yeah, you see all full of crap.

Speaker 1:

It's amazing, is Talking ish and came back it up.

Speaker 2:

Okay, fine, we're fine, we're gonna put her right now. This is a live call. Hopefully she's not busy. Oh yeah, she'll curse you out Right now, speaker, and we're gonna find out right now. Let's see it's ringing, hey, shari. Hey, listen, you're on. Get with traffic right now. And the reason we're calling you is because we're talking, so you're gonna show live right now. And the reason we got you on live is because I was telling Mike that, um, if A game is out on PlayStation 5 in Xbox, you're more likely to get it for the Xbox. You mostly play games Exclusive to PlayStation. Am I wrong? Am I correct? See, I told you she only played. She gonna get it. Likes Xbox more.

Speaker 1:

What's gay? Okay who? You have more games with PlayStation on the Xbox right now.

Speaker 2:

I told you Xbox more.

Speaker 1:

That's all.

Speaker 2:

We just talk about Xbox.

Speaker 1:

That's terrible excuses which is true Okay.

Speaker 2:

I was right. Yes, what what? Mr Mesa was right again. Well, I'm not gonna thank you for joining the show. We hope to have your show soon. All right, so once again when I was right, yeah what a few times.

Speaker 1:

What a few times. All right, mr Basie, you're right with that, you know. Say so. All right, let's go to Nintendo.

Speaker 2:

Oh, that's what we should start it off with. Let's try. We ended with it with the best for last go to hardware and you start off.

Speaker 1:

So you, mr Nintendo.

Speaker 2:

Nintendo. We already know what the horror is gonna be. Everybody's talking about it, everybody's singing, everybody's people saying it's a fact. I'm gonna say it might be dropped this year.

Speaker 1:

Yep the new gay boy advanced for 2024.

Speaker 2:

I don't think it's gonna drop me personally, but people are saying it's gonna drop this year and that is a switch to which you know might be getting its final release, well, something about. So it's gonna be announced this year and you know it's been seven years since the release of the switch, so part two should be coming out this year. So, mike, you'll expand on that.

Speaker 1:

Oh, yeah, it was even seen as reporting that the Japanese game giant will have the switch to coming out this year, mr Amazing.

Speaker 2:

Wow.

Speaker 1:

So you know, saying so, it's even help. Even going to the mainstream media is Reporting that the switch is coming with a part two.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, absolutely. I mean, I still think it's gonna drop this year. Be honest with you.

Speaker 1:

It's gonna drop this year, mr no, but let me tell you why don't this drop this year because I think this year usually when you drop a system is because the momentum of the current system is no longer there. And it's, yes, it is.

Speaker 2:

Graphic-wise. Oh, that's a good fact, everything to it. But I feel the time to have a strong year again. Word that the current stuff that they currently have coming out this year is gonna able to carry. So I think you gonna see me personally, I think you're gonna see the switch to first quarter 2025.

Speaker 1:

Then I in the previous episode by the. Stuart did not report the switch sales have went down, it went down.

Speaker 2:

Yes, it went, it went down, but not to the point where you're like, oh my god, we need to, we need to drive this real quick. The cells.

Speaker 1:

One duck is 27 year by 20, 20 your system 20%.

Speaker 2:

But there's some stuff coming out this year where I think it's gonna be able to hold, Maintain the switch. For it to be like oh, you know what you know the cells are still is gonna pick up again. I think there's gonna be. We're gonna talk more about it cuz I'm you know, I'm sure.

Speaker 1:

I mean the switch. All time is sold over 132 million.

Speaker 2:

Yes, great, yeah, okay, good, great numbers.

Speaker 1:

Okay make it a switch, the second most successful console after the handheld for Nintendo DS okay, that's.

Speaker 2:

That's. That's great. You're talking about Nintendo specifically right now. Yeah, so I'm still I'm you're saying for 2024, I'm saying Early quarter one of 2025, but we both do agree that we're gonna get major news on the switch to this year.

Speaker 1:

I mean I Don't. I mean yes, we know switch to know we're getting it this year. I'm got me hesitated. Yeah, you said that. Yeah, you go you on next year early 2025. No.

Speaker 2:

I think it does gonna rock out what they have now this year. But we do both, I mean we do agree that major news is dropping on this. We'll see no, because if the switch to is dropping this year, Mike would you, I'm gonna get you calling quarter, you know it's okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, this we gonna do.

Speaker 1:

okay, the biggest bet, biggest, that game of travel show go ahead Big as a game. Travis show ahead in the switch to come out. Okay, this for you, buying it for me. Yeah, it's miss miss, come out and watch a birthday. I'll buy for you this amazing Come on, I buy your first game for it. I want to do it?

Speaker 2:

I would do it, but your traffic don't pay me yet Yo you got it, you get enough, yo all right mr Maze. I got seven. I Will get a major news this year, but I'm still sticking my thinking. Okay, we'll be back track a little bit. Give me one year. Your release date is for the switch to all these dates.

Speaker 2:

I mean I can release time frame. Yeah, I mean the exact date time frame. The tell us you're dropping over October. So he's saying October. So it offers us a drop in October. That means summer. We already got a half. We're gonna have a set of looks we got. Now it plays, we got no. All that already in order for the drop in October. Yeah, so that also means we're starting. We should be getting previews of this by like in the spring.

Speaker 1:

All right, you know, you think even before that you can't do this summertime, so you did.

Speaker 2:

Summertime drops October. You think I know you're gonna now see in June for the release day. I mean, you're not wrong, but I just think the timeline is it's too fast because of what I'm gonna talk about next. Go ahead, mr Mason. I'm moving on to games. Now we already are we doing hardware for Nintendo? Because, I'm honest, I think we are, because the sounds. What we know is what kind of system then working on your system? There's no reason for you to be making it. I current, you know hardware for this one right now.

Speaker 2:

I Let you taste it you Light coming out or you OLED to something coming out? No, no, okay, so we could move on.

Speaker 1:

All right.

Speaker 2:

Now the reason I'm stuck on next year is because I think they're gonna have a very good Year of games that's gonna sustain the cells of the switch. Just like no one saw Mario Warner coming out and being successful, no one saw that this year the tenors doing what they gave peach, our own game, which is people like, oh wow, peach game, our own game. So we should be high for this. Yes, we should be high for this, because if they did what they did with Mario Wonderland, so what they could do, they could do a peach, her first game, her first iteration. I think that can carry the switch Cells. The other games are gonna come up. We're gonna talk about later on the switch cells. The peach game is coming out earlier this year. I have this. That's my little doubtful. It does come out in March but that is gonna give the switcher momentum for these two months. I it's gonna give like a, you know, a little momentum that's gonna hold on to switch numbers. I think, wow, look at my you know it's my silence, right?

Speaker 1:

No, go ahead, you go on going to get you, mister. Okay, you miss the Nintendo go on.

Speaker 2:

we do know the Peach is having a very first game, one of longest Mario characters besides Mario Luigi, it's always know about me she's gonna first game Princess Peach power to the women.

Speaker 2:

Yes, shout out to women for that. So March 124 women play that second to cause cyber what we saw this year Donkey Kong getting its own Attraction. Donkey Kong now is being released. Are we the remastered in on February? But they're doing it a two player co-op this time. Well, isn't them? Dunk up versus Mario? That's another one, as in talks as well, but that's what I think they're doing Donkey Kong versus the very look the regular Donkey Kong. I think they're doing okay.

Speaker 2:

And they're also gonna do Don't go for some Mario week I thought we checked it, but I'm pretty sure I'm right, though they can do that. And then, eventually, there's talks that they're gonna have a Donkey Kong movie, which is gonna be big. So it's it's building all that around.

Speaker 1:

Okay, they're building all that out. The Donkey Kong movies gonna be the thing they'd have in this year. That's like several years.

Speaker 2:

Oh, some of the Zelda movie coming out, yeah exactly, but I'm just saying that Nintendo, they're very good at marketing. That's. One thing they're amazing is is their market, their marketing so like being that the peach, the Donkey Kong games like that, and then Luigi's mansion, another one to all getting touch-ups, pretty much three, or the remake I got confirmed with, I think, I think it's, I think it's a remake me on to your master. Yeah, so I think those can sustain the switch and whatever is gonna drop that and whatever other gives. I don't know, and you're pretty, you know, I don't know. I think those could hold the momentum of the switch for one more year, cuz I think they're gonna squeeze the system as much as they can to finalize the finish, the final touch, to make this a perfect.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's just dumb.

Speaker 2:

It's like you just said 10-15 minutes ago games, all that stuff are taking time and I don't think the switch to is ready yet. I really don't think it's ready yet.

Speaker 1:

Be honest with you, but go ahead. No more juice left, bro. Your prediction of the switch take it over a PlayStation 2 sales will not happen right now that 132 million ain't happen.

Speaker 2:

What's the two? What's the sales on this? 155 million 155 million Now. Okay, we'll do that.

Speaker 1:

Don't forget.

Speaker 2:

Just cuz the switch to comes out doesn't mean the sus the switches, they're gonna stop, they're gonna get rid of whatever security have is gonna slow down it's gonna end depending on it. They can try to just get rid of what they have. I'm so valuable, all right, so remember what's gonna happen. The price cut. That's when the numbers are gonna start moving like crazy. The switch is gonna get a price. It's gonna get a price cut.

Speaker 1:

I think 50, 50 bucks maybe 50, 300 I would say, and also predicting that the switch might cost 400 bucks the new one.

Speaker 2:

Yes, it sucks, but it's a days world and what this switch. We don't know what it's gonna do yet, so it might be worth it. Inflation on that, it plus it's gonna transform it's gonna. We don't know what it's gonna do yet, so I can't comment on that yet. But even a 400, it might still be a very good, you know.

Speaker 1:

But if I was a person into stocks, go get you into 10 of socks.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yo keep buying that, telling you, yeah, I did get it. It's only it goes up. Best time to go buy the 10 of course, best is to come out. Yeah, it's like 10 12 hours. Why are you so several stocks for under bucks?

Speaker 2:

No, absolutely no. You're right about that.

Speaker 1:

All right, mr Mason. How about the services for switch?

Speaker 2:

I tell them the wreck is gonna be the same. I feel like out of all the well, the dreaded wreck is the stuff.

Speaker 1:

They uh the showcase.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I just browse off out of all the stuff that they, they do that I think they're their price and everything steady.

Speaker 1:

I mean the 12 month description. Yeah, it's 1999. Yeah, it's steady in the US, so that's not bad for the whole year. All right, mr Mason, and else, but by accessories.

Speaker 2:

The things with accessories. I don't anything for the current generation. I think now their full focus is on the new switch.

Speaker 1:

I don't know if you are.

Speaker 2:

No, no for that, not this year.

Speaker 1:

So no, I don't know. Paper box accessory, maybe Paper boxes, maybe that you want to buy the body by word?

Speaker 2:

I was like I was like, am I kissing on like that?

Speaker 1:

I saw that garbage of the people bought it, not Mike. Mr Mason tempted to buy that.

Speaker 2:

The one I was kind of interested was the one with the car, the Mario car. We could control the car.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but the way that was kind of cool. I know I have never seen anybody, I don't know anybody hasn't either bad so. Hot wheels. Have one now.

Speaker 2:

But um yeah. But what about games is? What games would you like to see on nintendo?

Speaker 1:

Adult themed games were m rated. I I think maybe the next one only game might get is the remaster of um, to rate it the first three.

Speaker 2:

Okay, yeah, I might get that Okay.

Speaker 1:

I just hope they change that. You had to be so precise on the jumping.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, that was.

Speaker 1:

That was annoying. I was to get headed. I was like I can't take anymore. For why stop playing until the new Realtion of the little craft games came?

Speaker 2:

out. I agree. What I kind of expect for us is, uh, announcement for new Mario Kart, actually because it's been a while, because remember the original Mario Kart 8 no, the major Mario Kart 8. I think was released in like 2014.

Speaker 1:

No, they made the. Mario Kart 8 Edition for the switch, but not night.

Speaker 2:

No no, this shit, I mean announcement, like hey guys, you know. So I kind of expect that to happen. But usually when a new sister comes out they usually come with a one big Mario game. So I think that would be Okay. So I wouldn't be surprised. But I don't question you. Do you pedal getting the purchase? Peach cake.

Speaker 1:

I Love your mother, mine Versus Donkey Kong.

Speaker 2:

I think you should play that.

Speaker 1:

We could play together, no problem.

Speaker 2:

It's fun. It's actually very fun. I just do it in Manning. Yeah, Rules one for five. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

I'm 75.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

Oh the hug people task yeah.

Speaker 1:

Had a dog said or something making a killer you know I'm looking for, I'm gonna for to Mickey versus Wayne the pool.

Speaker 2:

That's what's on that movie Come baby.

Speaker 1:

I'll wait for that movie. That's gonna be a fire.

Speaker 2:

This is bad, bad and what's gonna happen? Safety we spoke about last year. We spoke about that budget for great as a teacher didn't know the kid had a lot of fourth graders traumatized with these people killing people. It's gonna happen again this year. Another great age group, you know, you should not knowing he said no, what's wrong with him? It can happen because my mother didn't know. I think I told you a story already. Well, I saw basic instinct in my mouth or something about learning. I was a child that's what I thought.

Speaker 1:

The base is the death of a poster.

Speaker 2:

But I know she's not working in the CDC to be my brother. We said that we enjoy basic instinct at a very young age.

Speaker 1:

I don't know why you don't get that and anyway, mr Mason, to a green light, red light it or you'll like to travel.

Speaker 2:

I'm a red. I'm sorry, yo, I'll give you this, the bright green brother.

Speaker 1:

We're gonna go see this when it comes out.

Speaker 2:

I like. I said I'll see about getting a red though. Yo, that's all, maybe just my mind when I see it, we'll see, go, go, go see it, man, it's probably a crappy movie. Most likely the crappy movie, and plus the troubles, it didn't even incite me, though.

Speaker 1:

By a crappy in the Winnie Pooh movie. I if it come like really cheap or come to be. I'm like three dollars, I'll buy it. I like freaking kid. I'll buy it. But the budget for the Winnie Pooh moves, I think, was a hundred thousand thousand, oh, less than that. But now has a million dollar budget.

Speaker 2:

I'll say, good, little more. We'll see, maybe gonna find his friends tonight.

Speaker 1:

Yes, it's friends involved who?

Speaker 2:

Mr Mason, this shows that digital, yes, the future, your game, can take away anytime from you. And there's no, no, our monsters available. Oh, that sucks. Oh, I think it's might be off right now.

Speaker 1:

I could trade in and still get some money for it.

Speaker 2:

It might, it might be, is you know I come out in that. You know he ended online, so maybe. Nothing how you play it.

Speaker 1:

It's not a multiplayer game, it's a single-player game, so much the Mason should be. Care a lot a little another all.

Speaker 2:

I was gonna say we should care, but I Guess a little bit. What are you going with, okay, okay, yeah, it doesn't affect me either, but those that do, I'm sorry.
