Is nintendo's greed going to actually start hurting them? If you told me a year ago that the odyssey team would make a game that was good and that I somehow wouldn't buy the DLC for it, I wouldn't have believe you, but I'm pretty sure 0 people bought this trashThen Mario anniversary. $60 for 3 ports at the 35th anniversary, definitely stretching it but I know a lot of people who gave in especially since they made it a collectors thing. But $40 for just 1 mario galaxy game is fucking insane Friend of mine who owned every standard amiibo during the WiiU era doesn't even buy them anymore with how expensive they've gotten. And the virtual boy feels like jumping the shark on being comically greedy. Like who is even the audience for this people who watched some youtube critic make fun of it 15 years ago but have enough morbid curiosity to drop $100 on it even though they know it'll be trashDon't get me wrong people will still buy mario, zelda, smash, etc. But is anyone still buying the rest of this shit?
The re-releases and virtual boy crap are for Nintendo adults and "collectors" to mindlessly consume, not for sentient humans. They would sell the same amount regardless of price, so might as well milk the whales dry.
>>720685772i hope so because the patent trolling is a red line for me. i was just not buying their shit before, but now i want them bankrupt.
>snoy makes yet another seething threadYou won't be able to do this for much longer, gramps. You're over 60.
Nintendo is burning goodwill right now but I seriously doubt it will affect their actual profits in any meaningful way. We need to hit Xbox One reveal levels of "fuck Nintendo" before we see any noticable change, and I don't think Nintendo fans have it in 'em
>>720686825nobody cares about the "goodwill" of pirates and copycats.
>>720685772No, they successfully infantilized their fans during the Switch 1 and now they're too loyal to their product to quit it now.
No, because Nintendo now has a shit ton of consumers who feel a duty to buy shit just because they release something when they have money burning a hole in their pockets. Not actually being interested in the thing itself, but wanting to buy it to have something to buy. And of course the retards like half of /v/ who purchase stuff purely out of spite because they're addicted to consumerism that's framed as being "versus" someone else. "if you don't buy the $70 Pokemon game with an NSO requirement for starter mega evos and a $30 DLC they announced before release, then the 'snoys' win", etc.Of course, half the issue is that Sony and Microsoft have given up trying to course-correct with the PS5 and Xbox Series. Nintendo gets to do whatever they want with near carte-blanche right now, and people let them get away with it because, again, they feel like they're OBLIGATED to buy some new gaming shit.
>>720686825The xbone was enough to undo a couple years of good will but Nintendo has been generationally brainwashing kids since they were born for over 40 years. It will take a massive fuck up to reverse the brainwashing on someone who's been with you since they were 16 months old, vs undoing it on someone who was with you since they were 16 years old.
>>720687172>if you don't buy the $70 Pokemon game with an NSO requirement for starter mega evos and a $30 DLC they announced before releaseI don't understand this complaint since Pokemon's been operating on the "wait for the 3rd version that fixes all of the bugs" model since day 1
>>720685772>Is nintendo's greed going to actually start hurting them?No.
>>720687287yeah if anything turning the "platinum" version into DLC is actually consumer friendly compared to what they used to do.
>>720685772it hurts them really really bad
>>720685772NO, because the people whining was never interested in the first place.
>>720687351>>720687287Because of where prices are at now, dipshit. Especially with Pokemon games' obscene lack of polish.
>>720687451This
Releasing a product people will buy is "greed"okay tranny, just don't shoot any more college debaters
>>720687593>$50 Amiibo aren't greed because someone wants it
>>720685772If you mean the bonanza DLC, I'm not getting it because it just doesn't seem interesting to me.
They're losing positive word of mouth at a rapid pace but they'll still be fine for awhile. I'm not buying or playing any Nintendo games for a long time, or ever again.
>>720687737Literally nobody gives a fuck what journalists and dramatubers have to say
>>720685772Is Nintendo shit even for kids anymore?I feel like they've priced children out, and are riding on nostalgia and collectors rather than generating that sort of vital audience for their brand.
>>720687642Amiibos are just being priced like any regular decent figure + trumpriffs, people going "uhhhhh it used to cost $13" seem to have forgotten that they also looked like shit, on top of being way smaller
>>720685772>Is nintendo's greed going to actually start hurting them?No, they're fine. Next thread...
>people who happily paid upwards of 70$ for astrobot are now upset that other people are paying 70$ for a pair of games that are each individually better than astrobot
>>720687818Astrobot is $60
>>720687642I don't buy any Amiibo because I don't want them. It's that easy.
>$70 games with several tiers of season pass and DLC announced months before launch were 100% ok until Nintendo did something similarAnd they're still the cheapest option btw
Iunno maybe.
PS1 and PS2 beating N64 and GCN really sent Nintendo fans into an extremely dark, autistically vengeful place.
>>720687915I don't know what those are. Toys?
>>720687930>it's okay for Nintendo to be bad because someone else did it first!!!this is childish reasoning
>>720687946This one is fine because pokemon fans deserve to get fucked in the assAlso still the only Switch 2 Nintendo paid upgrade that doesn't add anything new to the game
>>720686825Back in the WiiU days where very few people owned one, some financial report came out that stated Nintendo could afford something like 3 or 4 WiiU failures in a row before they’d be close to financial trouble. With how successful the Switch was and Nintendo in full cocky mode, I think they’re back in safe territory and know they can afford to burn goodwill.
Friendly reminder:It's not expensive, it's simply above your budget because you're not the target demographicNone of the people complaining about nintendo now were responsible for financing the gaming industry back on the nes, snes and n64 era when games were $60 which was over $100 adjusted for inflation for their timeThis is why your "boycotts" fail, you can't stop buying what you were never buying in the first place
>>720688030My point is not if it's ok or not, my point is that apparently this wasn't a problem for the past 7 years, but now it's unparalleled greed and it's going to destroy the industry
Roblox
>>720685772It doesn't seem to be hurting them at all.
>>720688030childish reasoning is to scream its okay for sony to do something then turn around and cry that its evil when nintendo/microsoft/valve do the same thing
>>720688030Then boycott the entire industry then and not just Nintendo
it's funny how many spregs lose their shit as if they can't just not buy a thing, we don't need 30 posts of retards going "I c-c-can buy a discounted Wii and b-both for less than 80" or "I c-c-can hack my Wii in less than five mins" when the average person doesn't give a fuck. Faggots always feel the need to justify themselves like insecure little shits
>Nintendofags organizing to post fucking demoralization counter-ops usually reserved for fucking politicsjesus fucking CHRIST Sony assfucked you guys badly>>720688183>childish reasoning is to scream its okay for sony to do somethingChildish is accusing someone of something that you have no reason to believe they did as a deflection.
>>720688104What goodwill are they burning? The people who hate Nintendo now are the same ones who hated them ten years agoZoomers and third worlders don't seem to realise that youtubers/twitch streamers always fucking hated Nintendo and used to rage about them stealing ad revenue from their videos which caused them to either not cover them at all or only cover them negatively
>>720688167Just saw someone a few days ago bragging about getting an used copy of Mario 3D all stars for $80 as a "good price", the people paying for it aren't bothered at all
>>720688114Its weird they keep putting the "in nintendo history" part, switch 2 just IS the fastest selling console
>>720687479>Buying a 30 dollar DLC instead of a full price 3rd version is bad pricing
>>720688209>Faggots always feel the need to justify themselves like insecure little shitsYeah, like gloating about heckin owning the snoys and calling everyone you don't like a snoy to justify your blind loyalty. Oops.>>720688321On top of a $70 game, yes retard.
>>720688321>and paid online >and home lol poketurds are the ultimate shit eaters
>>720688321please understand these are the same people trying to claim that a free update to a game that everyone gets along with an optional $20 expansion pack is somehow more greedy than being forced to rebuy the entire game again for the new console
>>720688281Some for the game journalists who never recovered from Nintendo Directs stealing their ad revenue from reporting stuff first, it was also really funny to see many of them excusing Silksong for not sending review codes right after they whined like crazy at Nintendo for doing the same
>>720688305I guess they made it to avoid drama from oversensitive people
>>720688281>The people who hate Nintendo now are the same ones who hated them ten years agoSpeak for yourself. In 2015 I was a blind Nintendo fanboy. All I played was my hacked wii and my 3DS. Now I hate Nintendo and don't own or play any of their products. All i play are hardcore arcade games that take skill
>>720688529thats fair considering sony cultists sending death threats to people for just buying a switch 2
I can see the Nintendo Discord is being more vigilant again after yesterday's thread (and the general board atmosphere Friday/Saturday after the Direct) didn't go their way.
>>720688530Didn't ask.
>>720688415>and paid onlineif you're too broke to afford $10 a year you have more urgent priorities than playing video games>and homeyou don't need this unless you're an autist hoarding thousands of pokemon
>>720688652I see you're still in the projection phase, OP.
>>720688167>>720688283The modern Nintendo gamer is the last bastion for physical game media owners. They know the digital apocalypse is around the corner. This is their last stand.
I see the snoys are seething their spam didn't do anything but make them look insane again Funny they spend all day crying in their nintendo derangement syndrome discord trying to figure out how to spin switch 2;s constant winning into something good for sony
>>720688848>The modern Nintendo gamer is the last bastion for physical game media ownersAlso, key cards.
>>720688652>Anime tranny>Talking about some discord basement dweller meetup no one cares aboutLike pottery
>>720688848A digital copy that you own on your computer can never be taken from you and never die. Physical is for toddlers sºys and niggers
>>720688885Key cards suck ass but that's due to the cartridge manufacturer not producing anything below 64 gigabytes.
>>720688281 the same as >>720688530. Was fine with Nintendo in 2015 when they were forced to eat humble pie. Now I just rim their older shit on my PC or Homebrewed WiiU.>>720688415I do genuinely wonder what will happen to these kinds of people if Japan was caught-up in a massive war and they couldn’t get their Nintendo / Pokemon fix. I know one in real life who’d probably sudoku themselves.
>>720688885Every game thats chosen keycards over a real cart has flopped seems like the greedy third party devs are reaping what they sowed
>>720688885Most hard-core collectors are avoiding game key cards like the plague.Normies will be the downfall of physical media.
>>720687172>spoilerHoly shit, point proven right here >>720687593Also, people "consenting" to being scammed doesn't make scamming healthy. Take Charlie's name out of your mouth, pharisee.
>>720688340>On top of a $70 game, yes retard.so you're saying you'd rather buy a second $70 game than a $30 DLC?
>>720687172> half the issue is that Sony and Microsoft have given up trying to course-correct with the PS5 and Xbox Series.anon, Playstation has been the one doing price hiking even more than nintendo
>>720685772Nintendo Adults are the most feminized passive golems there are. Nothing will kill nintendo
>>720689176Yeah, I remember when Sony introduced $80 with Mario Kart World. Dipshit. inb4 UHHHHH BUT THE PREMIUM EDITION OF THIS GAME IS $100>>720689175I'd rather these incredibly low-quality games not be $70.
>>720688340That's what everyone does, blame game industry at large, not nintendo.SEGA the board darling has the most prerelease DLC even.
>>720689075Third party devs are the only companies who made any software on the switch worth playing. You have to be a knuckle dragger to enjoy first party 2025 games, and that goes for all three consoles.
>>720689331>BUT OTHER GUY!!!!You retards don't get to both claim Nintendo is different from the rest of the industry and make excuses en masse for why they're copying more and more of the worst practices of the industry. Go ahead. Tell me they were struggling after the Switch 1 and NEEDED to get even worse. I fucking dare you.
Terminally online unemployed discord trannies living with their parents call someone who owns their own place and works a 9 to 5 job a man child because he spends his disposable income on his hobbyGames like Mario don't cause arrested development, it's shit like WoW and Runescape and FFXIV and CoD
>>720689331Sega has denuvo and a whole bunch of greedy shit within their games but they make damn good games so I forgive them. Nintendo and sony make manchildren garbage
>Nintendo releases a $70 game, the norm for games at the time>next console releases >nintendo gives every owner a free update patch for the new console >theres also $20 dlc >you can buy the game bundled with the dlc for $90 >"REEEEEEEEEEEEEE HOW DARE NINTENDO DO THIS THEY GREEDY"vs>Sony release the last of us for $70 >they release the last of us for PS4 for $70>they release the last of us remastered for $70>they release the last of us remastered part 1 for the PS5 for $80>they release the last of us complete collection for $120 >*silence*

>>720689760Are you 3?
>>720689869Answer my question first.
>>720689764yeah i'm on the fence with pokopia, but until then still not buying
>>720689723Yeah, I'm pissed that you want to turn all discussions about Nintendo into deflections about Sony because you think it's not fair that you didn't see as many threads criticizing Sony (which is fucking ridiculous and proves how tunnelvisioned you are). Sony is floundering badly, so there's not a lot of discussion to be had there. Nintendo keeps bafflingly succeeding despite being terrible, so that warrants more frequent discussion.
>>720689869generic megacorp is like EA and Ubisoft and SonyNintendo still very much has their own identity
>>720689810>snoy is seething because every grifter, paid journo, and the mindless cult all defend sony but shit on every other platform/company when they do the same things

>>720689854Weren't gba and ds games $30? And you can wait for the third version or go without it.
>>720689793DELETE THIS. P-P-PLEASE.
>>720685772It may never hurt themThere are a LOT of really shitty companies that flushed their good will down the toilet with retarded business decisions that are still doing just fine, now.Look at EA. As long as their actual customers are share holders and not their players, then it doesn't matter what retarded fucking measure they use to screw over their fanbase. EA has been fucking people over with the worst kind of gambling and gacha mechanics in retardedly worse and worse games and they're doing better than they were doing during COVID. Their last FIFA game was so functionally unplayable that they lost the FIFA license and had mass returns, did it matter? Of fucking course not. Whales buying virtual players will play literally anything.Nintendo could go down the path of charging $200 a game and people will still pay it because it has Mario and Pikachu on it, even if they were forcing you to pay for packs of pokemon and toads to use in the game. And as long as green line goes up, who is to say they aren't right for doing so? In the stock market, might makes right, and happiness is a gentlemen's agreement.
>>720689793Cool for Metroid
>>720690021they were $40, and you can just wait for the "including DLC" edition for modern pokemon too.
>>720689956Fucking hilarious considering only one of those companies was a generic white label product company at one point. Still technically is too because they still don't produce their own shit.
>>720690016>>720689793>>720690049>worse companies>only argument is "might makes right, they make money so you should be happy" here's one of those retards now. are you going to be buying shark cards and player packs from R* and EA because clearly they make the best video games on Earth because of how much money they make?
>>720690021>Weren't gba and ds games $30?$40
>>720689959No one is seething No one thinks snoy selling their shit remasters for 80 dollars is a good thingTake your medication and get your bogeyman in check
>>720689956>generic megacorp is like EA and Ubisoft and Sony>Nintendo still very much has their own identityMeanwhile they're run by former EA execs and act just like them. Maybe you're too young to remember but even EA used to produce high quality games with great gameplay
>>720689970No I didn't. That's literally this entire board. This mentality started with Pokemon SwSh, when people bought up extra copies of the game to countersignal the Dexit protesting and helped make it the best selling game in the series since the Game Boy games.
>>720690125>>720689793i just don't understand the braindead argument that i should be happy because this company made a lot of money. you're not seeing any of that money, so why does it matter to you? are the games any better? i played super mario galaxy over a decade ago and can play it anytime i want on multiple consoles I already own. does it matter to me if they're selling a lot right now if they're functionally the same game?
>>720690169>s-stop noticing the reality around you! LEAVE THE MULTI BILLION DOLLAR BLACKROCK COMPANY ALONE

>>720689735>No one is forcing you to engage with Nintendo as a brand.You mean apart from Nintendo themselves? They literally just patented summoning mechanics in games. Nintendo being shitty is suddenly very much became my problem, they can't just be ignored anymore.
>>720690368>snoy can't read
>>720689810Notice how the videos are titled "Is it worth it??" and not "Sony went too far" " Sony lost their mind" "Sony doesn't respect you" like all the Nintendo ones
>>720690169>No one thinks snoy selling their shit remasters for 80 dollars is a good thingbut when Nintendo does it, and it's not even a remaster, it's just fine right?
>>720690374>Normies bought it because it's pokemonAnd yet not nearly in the same numbers for the DS or 3DS games. Curious!
>>720690106Pokemon emerald cost $35 and had a full pokedex and better graphics and better gameplay and more content than gen 8. Pokemon sword is unpolished dogshit that costs $90. These things are not comparable.
>>720690421What am i reading? Your headcanon?>>720690428Nope, Nintendo reselling Wii ports for 80 dollars is just as bad
>>720690432>NOOOOOOMBERRRRSSSthis shit is the nintendofag's one and only defense. it must be good, it made lots of money. Is it actually good? Tendies don't know, they buy games for the lifestyle like applefags.
it's kinda hilarious that nintendofans say nintendo is for kids but their current pricing is literally pricing out kids and cashing in on middle aged adults with money. There are now whole complete generation of kids that skip nintendo and just play roblox instead.
>>720690432Oh my god, go be mentally ill at /vp/ or some shit.
>>720690343>it's fifa and madden all the way downThose are gameplay oriented real time strategy games. Gameplay wise they're better than pompous walking sim garbage like metroid prime or dk bonanza
>>720690412>They literally just patented summoning mechanics in gamesoh no, another retard who fell for youtuber ragebait.
>>720690513yes, the lifestyle of playing gamesmust be inconceivable when you don't have any
>>720690412let me guess its another case of >patent filed literal years ago >is so specific that infringing on it would require going out of your way to do so intentionally >youtube grifters and journos are trying to pretend its fraudulently trying to patent broad concepts that would not be allowed through
>>720690523>pricing out kidsThey want the Nintendo Adult audience like Disney Adults who buy anything slop they out out
>>720690523??? any price will "price out kids" kids don't have money, their parents do. and parents are notoriously stupid with how they spend money on their kids.
>>720690620who can blame them? it's way more profitable to pander to these people. This is why they've resorted to making movies to get kids to like nintendo now.

>>720690593pretty much, although in this case i think the patent was either approved or updated this year, so your first point is off.
>>720690506two 10/10 games for $80>nintendo is the most evil company of all time how dare they why aren't they being like other companies and charging over $100 for shit no one cares about?!
>>720690523>There are now whole complete generation of kids that skip nintendo and just play roblox instead.There were always brown kids too poor for nintendo. The yuppies all give their kids switches and then they associate it with being upper class. Like apple or disney.
>>720690449>that costs $90Yeah the game is shit, but don't know why you feel the need to lie.
>>720690663look at nintendo's own charts. Kids already struggle to afford the switch and now switch 2 is impossible for them.

>>720690694so ALL consoles and games are priced out of the market for kids no kid has $800 of allowance for a ps5 or $500 for a switch 2
>>720690357Lol nothings changed with them. They hunt whoever is unfortunate enough to give them a bargain. The only reason gamecube had any kind of fucking discs was because Phillips let them use mini discs. They didn't give a fuck about "development quality in smaller games", they wanted none of the royalty money going to Sony for a full sized non bionicle game disk. Every single time without question that this company talks about an "innovation" it's usually just a coping mechanism for having an inferior polystation with a poor amount of documentation so that they can get a headstart on understanding their own product.

Nintendofags talk about Sony way more than Sonyfags do. The PS2 utterly devastated them. The Switch passing its sales count will never undo or heal 25 years of obsessive seething over Nintendo not getting their way over the industry for the first time.
>>720690774>5-12: parents bought games for them>13-15: rebellious phase: too cool for nintendo fans>18+: start working and have their own money to spendseems normal to me.
>>720690842So its improved over the wii u versions versions no one bought any way before the wii u was a massive flop, so its not like sony making people buy the same game 5 times

>>720691036so im paying 60 bucks for a resolution patch? lmao get the fuck out of here
>>720691108Sony had to sacrifice their entire mobile game division and got curbstomped by nintendo
>>720685772>Is nintendo's greed going to actually start hurting them?You're trying to rationalize Nintendo success because you just cant believe they sell more than your favorite company despite being anticonsumer. Its pretty funny
>>720685772Noticing how lately the hate circlejerk around Nintendo increased with e-celebs and journous spawning minions parrotting the same "le greedy evil" buzzwords over and over because they don't want to behave like the good goys at Sony and Microsoft by making everything multiplatform and destroy their legacy?
>>720691223better than paying $120 for a "thank you" letter
>>720691108They had to combine it because nearly every home console they produced over that 25 year period was an abysmal failure save for the boomer health machine whose success was coat-tailed by releasing along side the DS.
>>720691248Ecelebs like drinking water too, Anon. Kill yourself contrarian tranny.
I don't know why you don't buy second hand games, I got years ago Pokemon shield+dlc for 25 euros just to try it since I didn't touched a Pokemon game in years.Hell there is a people selling Bananza for 50 euros already
>>720691248Look at who owns the most shares of nintendo vs sony sony isn't even the majority owner of the sony group anymore, blackrock owns more of it
>>720691248That's bullshit.But I believe it.
>>720686825nintendo doesn't need goodwill. People will just buy the best value games. Nintendos competition is borderslop 4.
>>720691008Ah yes I remember all the doomposting and panic from articles and videos about those games, oh wait it never happened, only when Nintendo is involved
>>720691361shitting your pants about nintendo makes YOU the contrarian much like if some retard tried to claim the PS2 was a bad console
oh great, here comes the tinfoil shit from ninpedos, are we going to start screeching about "le brazillian glowie" next?
>>720691562reminder that the snoy is the one who tried to post the shares breakdown of nintendo first
>>720691248"Blah blah blah, muh greedy, muh buzzwords." Nigger every notice how the hate circlejerk increased because they just released a limpdicked console and memed everyone into selling shovelware for 80$ a pop? Call me greedy idgaf, I want socialist homeless faggots to die just as a fast as crony capitalist corporation who somehow still has difficulty producing and selling products to the point they have to demonize scalpers.
>>720691248They can't understand Nintendos goal, one day they will realize it eventually
>>720691512The consumer market isn't about the games at all. The best games ever made are playable for free on a potato pc. Purchasing games are about brand identity and the feeling you get opening a game or having it in your library
Are Nintendo adults single-handedly keeping Nintendo afloat these days? It feels like it's all old people still into Nintendo and not so much anyone younger.
>>720691709Selling bad hardware and games sprinkled in with some cardboard to consoomer retards?
>>720691734The mass zillennial dieoff in 10 years from extraordinarily bad health/lack of physical activity is going to decimate Nintendo's gaming division lmao
>>720691516Literally all of those games are shit on for the price. Stop being a whiny faggot, Nintendo Adult
>>720691734pretty much, my gen alpha siblings exclusively play minecraft, fortnite and roblox and when asked if they wanted a switch 2 for christmas they all declined and asked for gift cards for those games instead. The launch day line for the Switch 2 was all older millennials and a lot of troons.
>>720691734Switch is pretty popular among kids>t. work at kindergarten
>>720691361Have fun having your personality shaped by a literally who loser who speaks on a mic for a living bozo
>>720691734It's "family friendly" because they're cowards who won't admit their target audience are the same people Hiroshi shat on years ago
>>720691770This you?
>>720688321if you bought the full price 3rd versions of the GBA and DS Pokemon games you'd be able to sell them for hundreds now
>>720692067definitely not, I haven't owned a console since the ps3 and wii and never will again, there's no point in them anymore, rather put the money towards my PC
>>720691248>Notice how when Nintendo is being shitty people complain?Yeah
>>720692067what a rip off they didn't even get funky mode in that remaster!
>>720689793>>720688167>>720687429>>720685772THANK YOU to everyone in this thread!I didn't even realize Metroid and SM Galaxy were already up on Amazon! I went there right away and pre-ordered both. This is why I visit /v/, you bros always have my back.
>>720692298no you don't get it, it's a conspiracy, Sony's behind it all, they're working with Eric and the CIA to make people hate Nintendo for no good reason, they're out to get me (and of course Nintendo is me because I've devoted myself to them)!
>>720690620Most of them are making fun of the first guy (i.e., the meme). This fucking place and its goddamn autism.
>>720692615settle down, snoy
The problem right now is Nintendo is releasing so many expensive items way too close together. The Kirby Air Riders amiibo are released way too close to the Metroid Prime 4 amiibo. amiibo collection has gotten expensive. We're looking at a minimum of $220 just for amiibo alone. Not to mention $70 for Kirby and $60-70 for Metroid Prime 4. This was a blunder.
>>720692868no one buys amiibo except collectors, and collectors are the reasons the prices for them have become so high so who cares if they suffer
>>720686825Nintendo has been burning goodwill for decades now, big or small it feels like there's a controversy with them.
I liked bananza but no way am I buying the DLC, does not look compelling or substantial enough to be paid DLC at all.Nobody's paying that much for Wii ports regardless of how good the games are. How much is that Mario tennis game going to be? Why are they acting like sliding is a selling point when it has been part of the series since the very first game? Nobody's buying $50 amiibos especially when they don't do much of anythingCan't get myself in the mindset of a pokemon player in current year so not sure if anyone will bite on that shit, I honestly don't understand wanting to play those games in general but they still sell so I dunno. Nobody gives a shit about the virtual boy, that was laughably retardedI say this as someone with more disposable income than the average person who likes nintendo shit to the extent that I'd probably do onions face if they flashed a JPEG of lanky Kong on screen, I think they've completely missed the mark on almost everything in that direct and came across as tone-deaf and greedy.
>>720691248>whataboutismMicrosoft is dead and Snoy is dying
>>720692868>The Kirby Air Riders amiibo are released way too close to the Metroid Prime 4 amiibo. amiibo collection has gotten expensiveWhy does it matter? I swear people overanalyze everything nowadays. Its very simple anon. The amiibos release and you buy want you want. Its very simple. lmao
>>720690016>>720687593nigger one of the biggest games on their previous console you literally had to buy a 2nd console if you wanted to make a 2nd save file. This shit is indefensible
>>720693672>Nobody's paying that much for Wii ports regardless of how good the games are.I am cause I never played galaxy 2 and 40 dollar for one of the greatest games of all time is fine with me. >How much is that Mario tennis game going to be? Why are they acting like sliding is a selling point when it has been part of the series since the very first game?Mario tennis looks fucking kino and no other company is making arcady sports games with actual budget. So yes Ill buy this too>Nobody's buying $50 amiibos especially when they don't do much of anythingWho gives af if they do anything. They are meant as collector pieces and showpieces. That's like saying no one will every buy a figurine or a fucking toy because to you they do nothing.>Nobody gives a shit about the virtual boy, that was laughably retardedIll come back when that shit is sold out for over a year lmao
>>720693907>Snoy is dyingI highly doubt that with 80 millions of PS5s sold
>>720690774>average nintendo fan is so.ylent drinking millenial redditor
>>720692298>notice how when nintendo does nothing shitty people complain but when sony is evil they stay silent yeahreminder no one is talking about sony downgrading PS5s performance and gutting the hard drive sizes of the digital only PS5s
>>720694251this but snoys
>>720694417right
>>720685772the switch 1 era cycle>Game gets announced>"THIS GAME IS $60??? I AM SO DONE WITH NINTENDO!">game sells well and everyone forgets about it>repeatsthe switch 2 era cycle>Game gets announced>"THIS GAME IS $80??? I AM SO DONE WITH NINTENDO!">game sells well and everyone forgets about it>repeatsIt's going to be like this for the next eight years lol
>>720693950>I NEED TO SAVESCUM IN ANIMAL CROSSING
>>720685772they are greedy and scummy as hell now, especially with sony and microsoft shitting the bed, but no, nintendo is never gonna go bankrupt or anythingthey have cultivated a seriously insane cultist fanbase in the past few years with the switchyou can see it for yourself virtually anywhere on the internetreddit, twitter, and even 4chanthere's nintendo dickriders everywhere getting upset on behalf of nintendo over any criticism thrown at nintendo, with levels of seething one would reserve for actual cause like murder of a family member or getting robbed at gunpointit's pretty much a normie cattle fanbase now
>>720691248Incase you ever wonder just why nintendo has remained the same so long yet gets so much hate from the media while sony has cratered HARD yet has constant shilling
>>720685772they wouldn't sell it if people didn't buy it, lol
>>720694708You'll survive
Why should I give a fuck? I have enough money as is. Over half my income gets put into accounts I can't touch until I'm 65 and I'm not living a lifestyle to live that long anyway. Every couple of months I get in a fit of stress over my apartment being too cluttered and throw away most of the physical things I bought recently anyway. I can't eat out or go to a show because I'm too afraid of driving to go anywhere other than the store and my office. Just let me enjoy fucking video games
>>720694942i know, jeet
I didn't even get a Switch 2 this time. I didn't think the price of the system itself was unreasonable, but the games and accessories going up is the tough part.
>>720689764I'm basically holding out for new Animal Crossing, which I thought maybe they would at least announce, but I guess it's still like a year too early for that?
All of the claims greed, complaints and criticisms of Nintendo are always extremely petty or blatantly false
>>720693234>>720693915I collect them for my dying mom. Still sucks because amiibo used to cost a third or less of a game. And now amiibo cost almost as much as a video game. amiibo could have been cool things for games but Nintendo squandered their potential by making them physical DLC.
>>720689460>and works a 9 to 5 job a man child You are proud to be a slave, you are manchild
>>720685772Yes, but not immediately. People are finally waking up after the last direct. Expect sales to underperform.
>>720694626People are being WAY louder about Nintendo being shitty
>>720687930Nice revisionist history. You tendies were gloating on how nintendo doesn’t cut content from a game to see it a few weeks later. Then fetus game got its dlc announced.
>>720695665Maybe it's because Nintendo is fucking up wayyy harder than sony
>>720695436Sure pajeet, i am the slave, you should clean your bedroom though
>>720695665what does that matter lol they're both awful, you faggots act like youre in the oppression olympics
>>720693915I wish things were cheaper, but I think the outrage is based on FOMO. Like when a Souls game releases and its difficult for the mainstream to play, and people post sour grapes online because they WANT to discuss the [popular souls game] but they have trouble enjoying the game since they don't really care about it.So when the Virtual Boy plastic shell comes out at $100, not many people want it, but they feel left out so they complain about the price and how they don't like it, despite the reality that the Virtual Boy is a Nintendo nerd collectors item and novelty that Nintendo is most likely not counting to be super successful.
>>720695718peak of delusion
>>720688458TendiePsssstThe performance patch is locked behind the $20. You’re paying $20 for a performance patch lol
>>720695705>Nice revisionist history???
>>720695852When was the last time Sony sold a PS3 game for $70? Or an action figure for $50? Or announce PAID DLC before a game's release??
Dont PS4 games also have paid upgrade packs for PS5?
>>720688652Tendies needed to be humbled a bit. Didn’t think they’d get humiliated like that though.
>>720688652where's all the eric brazilian bullshit boogeyman spam
Kill the income tax and then everyone can buy their tendies
>>720695914the last of us is a ps3 game they've sold for full price 5 times and then charge $120 for the latest last of us 2 promised paid multiplayer dlc that they quietly cancelled when the game was a flop
>>720685772Nintendo is dying a slow death. It's amusing seeing tendies try to justify everything nintendo does tho.
>>720695914>When was the last time Sony sold a PS3 game for $70?PSN Premium is $150 a year, and that's for streaming, not even downloading, PS3 games.
>>720695861and its less evil than sony charging FULL PRICE to force you to buy the game again
>>720685772It'll take them a while to erode them of their goodwill. People used to view Bethesda as good guy Bethesda back in the Skyrim days, now look at how their reputation. I mean people are already memeing lawsuit Nintendo so their image isn't really as good as it used to.
>>720696169>n-n-n-nintendo is doomed!!!!! two more weeks right?
>$70 Wii U game>doesn't even include the expansions
>>720695784We need to be better men
>>720692298Tendies as a species literally cannot understand this concept in the same way a dog can’t recognize itself in the mirror.
>>720696303I said it will die a SLOW DEATH.
>>720686825It doesn't happen across one title. If they don't course correct then it's definitely gonna happen lol. See: Ubisoft, Blizzard, Bethesda.
>>720696169>Nintendo is le greedy>Gambles in gachaslop for some copypasted sex dolls
>>720694131>I never played galaxy 2 and 40 dollar for one of the greatest games of all time is fine with me>I never played>one of the greatest What the actual fuck tendie.
>>720696413Nintendo: doomed and dying since 1889
you know a redditor is mad when they go full passive aggressive
>>720685772Not this generation, probably not even the next one, Disney adult nintendo cultists are weird like that.
>macaco thread-4 karma to sony
>>720685772>nintendo's greedHuh?
>>720696489Nintendo has been declining since the 1990s. Wii and Switch are fads that only brought a temporary relieve.
nintendo adults are some of the weirdest cultlike retards on this board
>>720690663That's because millennials don't have kids and the ones that do buy these for themselves next to the Funko shelf
>>720696482If it bings and wahoos it must be great. Stupid snoy.
>>720696741maybe if you ignore their entire handheld lineup and the Switch 2 that actually proves that the Switch was no fad.
>>720696741>relieve
>>720696793the sony cult is still far worse those freaks will send death threats to people if they don't buy the sony branded plastic or they will buy multiple consoles just to hear the first time boot sound again
>>720696613I wonder what game will get a switch 2 port next so the snoy will be forced to denounce and call that game shit
>>720686917Do they care about the good will of Pokémon? Because not even the most overzealous fans can claim the new game has good graphics.
>>720697507>hes back to screaming about GWAYFICS
>>720696482>played galaxy 1 and it's the best wii game I've played>can finally play the sequel and I know it's going to be just as fun as the first oneIt's really not that hard to understand macaco
>>720697507>Retard still doesn't know in the year of our lord 2025 that Nintendo only publishes Pokémon and doesn't actually develop itThe Nintendo Derangement Syndrome Is fucking real
>>720687272The Xbone launch is why I went from loving my OG XBox and my 360 to never purchasing an XBox One or anything after that. If you look me dead in the eye and tell me you're planning to screw me over, I'm gonna believe you the first time and not trust you again after that.I've owned every Nintendo console since the NES to the Switch, with the exception of the Virtual Boy (which I played, just didn't own,) and the WiiU. I even got an OLED Switch last year. I'm so put off by what Nintendo's been doing (no Player Selects, raising the price on 7 year old hardware, selling their manual as a $10 game that locks other things behind paid peripherals on top of that, taking the lowest-powered console of the generation and selling it for the among the highest price of any Nintendo console, then telling people if they can't afford a Switch 2 to just buy a Switch... before raising the price on the Switch,) that I'm probably not even skipping this generation, but instead just calling it quits on the company. It's clear their leadership changed, and though I'm just one man in a sea of people willing to throw money at them, they've lost me.I'll probably get one of those handhelds you can load ROMs onto if I want to play something, or buy used games for my Switch. Or get a Steam Deck or ROG Ally or something if I want to play games handheld in bed. But there's no incentive for me to get a Switch 2, and plenty of reasons for me to not want to give Nintendo my money anymore.
>>720696741This but sony
the nintendo adults dont care at all
>>720697757Seems like Sony is the only console manufacturer worth buying from these days
>>720697739you can play it right now for free, and you've been able to do this for almost 20 years
>>720698209>no games >the "pro" console is having its performance gutted because it melts itself >the digital only version is having its storage reduced >sony keeps raising the price over and over >PSN constantly leaks user and credit card data
>>720696741Still pretending the Switch 2 is another Wii U situation huh
>>720686696snoys dont exist. people are only complaining about the last relevant console developer because they are being shit.
>>720685772Lmao, no. I hate Nintendo but between the Switch 2 not fucking bombing despite it’s numerous flaws, and the CHICKEN JOCKEY movie, they’ve won. They’ve accomplished every live service developer’s dream: Having an audience so mindbroken they could sell literal shit to them and still get thanked for the privilege as long as it’s cute animal-shaped.>>720686825Exactly this. The Switch 2 was a rubicon for consoomers to show some goddamn taste for once in their empty lives. They didn’t. And now because the Switch 2 sold, they’ll buy Switch 2 exclusive games to fill that sunk cost fallacy. And because they buy those games, they’ll be more engaged in Nintendo IPs. More engagement=more money. All Nintendie had to do was not fuck with the core value proposition (get a cute animal! Be Mario/Donkey Kong and jump on shit! Bright lights and platforms!) to keep the dopamine hits coming. YES, objectively speaking they’re being comically greedy. And they’re going to get away with it too because the average normie is comically naive about what quality should even be like.
>>720690016Gachatards can never and will never criticise Netease, Lasengle, etc because their wives are on the line. And Blizzard/Bungo players are so mindbroken that the last spark of defiance was snuffed from them long ago. You’re not hearing any bitching from the actual worst companies because they fucking won.
>>720692521Why did you have to do that? You're so mean.
>>720699570They're evil and they won but oh well. Not my problem the normies are donating their funds to them. At least the real games are still out there and playable
>>720699570>spend 2 years saying Nintendo waited too long and Switch 2 consumer hype was dying up>sets sales records>"actually the consumers are wrong, not me"
>>720699570You wasted your time to write that? All you had to do was post pic related.
>>720700878Nintendeen still thinks the Switch 2 will be a failure lol
>>720700878>>720700953Niggers, even the Wii U sold out at first. Atl east wait a fucking year
>>720700839Yeah pretty much, it’s like complaining about Amazon or BlackRock at this point. Yes, the evil corporation grew larger and there’s no real competition for it. >>720700878>2 yearsNot your bogeyman. I said from the start it would succeed. I’m not surprised, only disappointed.>>720700915I’m at a corporate wageslave job. Writing essays fuelled by spite is more productive than anything else I could be doing right now.
>>720698206>nintendo>adults
>>720701214they're no different than Disney Adults desu. overzealous manchildren hence Nintendo Adults
>>720701206>Writing essays fuelled by spiteWrite an essay about Nintendo's downfall will you?
>>720701027could you get a new script alreadymaybe your buddy chat-gpt could help you with that
>>720701027Four of the Top 5 best selling games on Amazon are Switch 2 games right now, including a GKC
Too many retards consuming their shit
>>720698348ninten tranny is stupid be easy on him
>>720701268i know. its just hilarious to see those words together
The snoy is really obsessed with this disney shit funny he only started spamming this after he got outed as some angry 60 year old
>>720688114>None of the people complaining about nintendo now were responsible for financing the gaming industry back on the nes, snes and n64what a coincidence i am the exact amount of years older than you where n64 is where i exited the nintendo ecosystem
>>720701206Im not interested in what emotion Nintendo makes you feel
>>720694673you know it's a family console right?
>>720701347>the consumer is wrong, not me
>>720685772I'm of the belief companies can never truly die. Look at image related. They have spent many years insulting males and males still buy their shit like the recent Live action Lilo and Stitch.The point is that companies can always be abusive and greedy and nasty to their customers. They will never stop buying. In the event that Nintendo angers people enough that they stare at bankruptcy what will happen is this, some big giant titan corporation will show like Apple and Amazon and buy Nintendo. And before you say anything I mean a Japanese Corporation will own Nintendo should they need to sell out. And doing this is how Nintendo's brands survive. So Nintendo's evil nature will NEVER haunt them.So I say get ready to see Nintendo behave worse than any given criminal on this Earth.
Does anyone remember when the IP counter somewhat deterred trolls?
>>720701964some people are scared of criminals or bears or skinwalkers getting them in the nightyou're scared of a toy company lol
>>720701279Nah I’m good. The other fags have a point, it’s all pointless when they’ve won already.>>720701964If they’re big enough, sure. Loads of mom and pop shops close all the time, it’s the big ones that can keep feeding with mergers and acquisitions. Or even in worst case scenarios, will survive as part of one through things like the Warner-Discovery merger.
>>720701964>Charging $70 instead of $60 is worse than any criminal action on earth!
>>720687642Yeah, that's how capitalism works.
can you do the nfc tag bullshit to spoof these new ambiibos?
>>720701746Hell are you even doing in this thread, then? What the actual fuck did you expect, unironically corporate dicksucking?
>>720702165No, but it at least made these kinds of threads funny when you see it's just two or three anons replying to themselves for hours.
>>720702348yeah man fight the power! down with corpos! fuck toys!
>>720685772>s nintendo's greed going to actually start hurting them?No. Their fans are brainwashed.
