Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

MODERATORS
Here are the trends with previous consoles:
PS1 : 455 -> PS2 : 512 -> PS3 : 180 -> PS4 : 58 -> PS5 : 15
Xbox : 106 -> Xbox 360 : 214 -> Xbox One : 12
Nintendo 64 : 129 -> Nintendo Wii : 328 -> Nintendo Wii U : 38 -> Nintendo Switch : 174
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
That's super interesting. Do you have a source you could link for this data?
I just referenced the data in the wikipedia container article here for some select consoles.

They’re a gamer what other credentials do you need?
Now do the same for PC
The source notes that for Mac there have been 2 exclusive games across all versions, and for Windows, there have been about 2560 across all versions. There doesn't appear to be a listing for Linux unfortunately.
So the Xbox one series (aka Xbox one 2) has zero dedicated games?
It depends on how the source categorized the information and how Microsoft classifies the Xbox One versus the Xbox One Series (whether as being two actual different consoles, or two versions of the same console.)

There is only one entry for anything related to Xbox One as far as I can see so I expect the 12 it notes are distributed across all versions of the Xbox One, or that there are 0 dedicated games for the Xbox One Series proper.
where is the GameCube or xbox series?
I don't think Xbox Series has exclusives. All of their stuff is on PC afaik.
There is no listing in the source for Xbox Series, however Gamecube shows 80 exclusive titles.
