過去一年間,遊戲掌機領域持續升溫,多款產品性能已突破性支持3A級遊戲流暢運行,並加速向主流消費市場滲透。然而,仍有相當一部分玩家堅持選擇傳統家用遊戲主機。

暴雪前首席執行官邁克·伊巴拉近日公開表達觀點:相較於斥資約1500美元購置GPD Win 5掌機,以749.99美元的價格入手索尼PlayStation 5 Pro主機更具性價比優勢。
The issue is this thing is $1500. I get the mobile capability, but just get a PS Pro and a ton of games. This is why a subsidized console model will always be of benefit to a lot of people. The upfront cost has to be made up over time (via services and 3P royalties) as most people can’t afford $1500 devices. Especially if GPU prices go up (and RAM) like expected. PS5/Pro and Xbox Series X could last another 4 years if needed.
此番言論源自其對Digital Foundry關於GPD Win 5評測的回應——伊巴拉在X社交平台指出,儘管理解掌機"可移動性"的核心賣點,但在當前定價體系下,選擇PS5 Pro並搭配多款遊戲才是更理性的消費決策。
The remarkable GPD Win 5, based on the monstrous Strix Halo processor, is the first handheld we've tested that offers PS5-class performance in the palm of your hand:
他進一步闡釋稱,索尼PlayStation與微軟Xbox採用的硬體補貼模式對資深玩家群體始終具備長期價值優勢。多數普通消費者難以承受1500美元級別的掌機定價,尤其在半導體元器件成本持續攀升的行業背景下,這一矛盾或將進一步激化。
伊巴拉還強調,PS5、PS5 Pro及Xbox Series X等傳統主機平台至少具備4年以上的產品生命周期保障,而高價位的遊戲掌機往往難以實現同等的長期使用價值。
