#047: The Price of Next-Gen Power 📉 (Plus: Granblue Fantasy: Relink is BACK! ⚔️)

The global franchise 'Call of Duty' will completely stop supporting last-gen consoles starting in 2026, and Nintendo is facing pressure to increase the price of its next-gen hardware due to rising costs. This suggests that the gaming industry is finally ending the long 'cross-generation' era and entering a phase where both hardware and software are being restructured into a high-cost, high-performance model. 📉 Ending support for older generations brings fundamental changes to game design. As developers break free from the constraints of legacy hardware, more sophisticated physics calculations and large-scale environments become possible. However, consumers will face the double burden of hardware replacement costs and rising software prices. This shift in platform structure may dampen consumer sentiment, deepening a polarization where demand concentrates on familiar major IPs rather than unproven new titles. Gaming has now moved beyond being a mainstream hobby to becoming luxury content that enjoys high-end technology. **The high-cost structure brought about by the standardization of high performance will serve as a cold testing ground, forcing 'selection and concentration' on both developers and consumers.** Only titles that provide a unique experience worthy of the increased cost—not just higher graphical specs—will survive in the market. 💡 Industrial growth has always passed through painful transition periods, and this generational shift is accompanied by harsher economic logic than ever before. It is time to see if the emotions delivered by technological progress prove valuable enough to open your wallets. Are you ready to embrace this change?
