Console or skateboard?

Hi, I'm 14 and have never had a console in my life (which I don't think is bad either). I wanted to buy my first one this summer (300 euro). I have to ask my parents first if they want that. All my friends have one, which is why it annoys me sometimes not to be able to participate.

But today I saw a video about skateboards and wanted to start that too, which is why I'm considering getting one and learning to do it.

My grades are always between 1.2 and 3 (if grades were an argument)

Should I get the xbox, the skateboard or both?

I would have the money together and could pay everything myself.

It depends on which Xbox and which skateboard you want.

But if so, please have a PlayStation.

And best of all the 5 because that's the newest

I would get both, the skateboard is ideal for being outside a lot and for having fun alone or with friends. The console is there to play with friends in bad weather or, for example, to play both accordingly and you are optimally positioned

The guy has never had a console that you can tell by the fact that he wants an Xbox

I wouldn't buy an expensive skateboard straight away. Maybe you don't like it as much as you thought. With the console, it should be noted that the games all cost more, which means that it would definitely be the more expensive variant. But since your colleagues seem to be more attached to the console than to go skating, I recommend this to you.

Is so😂

Thanks!

The seriesS is also good and the Ps5 would cost 200 euro more and would need a much better monitor to get its full performance out

The SeriesS, when it comes to skateboarding, I don't know

The Series S is better for 300 euro than the Ps5 for 500 (my opinion) and the design is much nicer

To say you shouldn't buy an expensive skateboard at the beginning is basically the same as advising someone not to "buy an expensive console".

you need a usable board to get a real insight into skating at all. Otherwise you throw the board in the corner after 2 weeks, not because skating is nothing, but because the board is nothing.

No, even the XSS is better than the PS5.

The PS5 is rubbish, default 60 FPS. The thing with 120 FPS is marketing.

What do you all have against XBOX?

You just never had a clue about technology, that's exactly why you recommend consoles that are 60 FPS standard…

If you could read, you would know that the questioner doesn't have a good monitor. Genius nico

I think so too.

Finally someone who knows a thing or two about technology

🤦♂️
What does that have to do with it? You can tell that you have no idea. XD. See the resolution alone…

By that I mean that a qhd / fhd 144hz monitor is enough for the xbox, if I get a ps5 then I want to play with the full potential it offers

Ultimately, of course, it is your decision and both options are legitimate.

But I can tell you that if you don't take anything used, 300 euro for both will be relatively tight.

i'm for skateboarding in and of itself, gambling is all well and good, but in the long term skating is, in my opinion, the more fulfilling hobby.

Personally, I would definitely not be who I'm today if I hadn't started skating. Gambling was always something in my life, but it was never something that had such a massive influence on who I'm or how I see the world.

if you want to buy a new skateboard, a budget of around 100 euro is definitely sensible (at this point a reference to this answer.

If you could read, you would have noticed that there was no mention of a monitor anywhere.

Are you stupid

"The seriesS is good too and the Ps5 would cost 200 euro more and would need a much better monitor to get the most out of it"

The Ps 5 costs 400 euro

When you grow up with the PlayStation, you just hate the Xbox

I grew up with nintendo, so I was neutral about both brands. I then decided on XBOX and knew that you need gold for more things live. Since I wanted to buy it anyway, I didn't care. So I wouldn't have howled at Playstation either.

I grew up with Nintendo for the first time and also played minecraft on the PlayStation

Ok, I've only ever had Nintendo, but at some point I wanted to play other games as well. So something like COD or Rainbow 6 Siege, which is not available at switch.

I think the design of the PS5 realtalk sucks. I just like it simple.

I think the Xbox design sucks

Ok your opinion.

Useful does not always mean expensive. In addition, the topic of consoles and skateboarding is very different. Whether you buy an expensive board or a console can't be compared in terms of price.

Useful in the case of a skateboard means around 100 euro upwards.

The argument "better take something cheap first" is seen more often, and as I said, it provides the effect just described, which means that you prevent yourself from getting started.

then, to be honest, you'd better leave it whole.

If you make your skills dependent on the board, skating may not be for you. In the beginning you can't skate, because a 200 euro board is just as useful to you as a 20 euro board. As long as it drives and does not fall apart while driving, it can be used.

This is just utter nonsense. Skating is hard enough at the beginning. Then you need material that cooperates with you and doesn't get in your way.

and that is the case, especially with a 20 euro board. If you don't believe me then step on one.

And by the way, there was no talk of 200 euro either. 100 euro is the necessary budget.
