And that’s why the newest console I own is a Switch, and everything else I play is on PC.

I’ve even moved all my Switch playing to PC hahaha

where is the GameCube or xbox series?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

I don't think Xbox Series has exclusives. All of their stuff is on PC afaik.
