>>726981736Perfect.
>>726982219He's going to continue doing the same thing he does every week, he's going to say that "Switch 2 will stop selling because the honeymoon phase is over"
>>726982219I predict him taking on child preying gambling sponsorships to stay afloat in the upcoming 6 months.
>>726981032>Switch 2 – 126.953 (2.870.398)>PlayStation 5 – 36.983 (7.180.453)
Snoy cope
>>726981032>Momotaro Dentetsu 2 – 28,074 / 118,780That's a throwback. Remember when the original game was inexplicably near the top of the charts for like three years straight?

>>726981490killed
>>726982739He'll probably go, "Choosing to be inspired by Mesopotamia and Persian instead of Japan or Medieval England is what makes it woke", or some shit like that.
>>726981741And the ps5 digital in Japan only was out for 2 days of the reporting week. The Nintendo cope is real.
>>726981724The original is rated even worse. Who cares?
>>726983091Thats some retarded shit but knowing how modern grifters call everything woke without a second thought you are completely right.
>>726983115Grim fucking cope
>>726981490AAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEENOOOOOOOOOOOO, DELET!!!!
>>726981585User ratings on some Amazon european site, lobbies having mostly japanese players, etc
>>726983091Part of it is just gamewars between FEfags.
>>726983201It’s just reality. The 23k is literally the bare minimum digital japan only ps5 sales for its first week on the market.
>>726981736too much shit.I would do it with a sad bob looking at nothing and neptune as nintendo looking at GAMES.
>>726983091Just wait till they find out FE1 was inspired by Rome Inb4 Rome is woke
>>726981741>489Well it is honestly amazing Japanese players bought 23k digital consoles. Don't worry I'm not some snoy coping, just genuinely amazed so many bought it at all considering how people there really don't like digital only consoles. Will the digital sales reach 50k during holiday weeks? I genuinely doubt it will go much higher without Japanese games focused in Japanese style.>>726983458It has XBOX slapped onto it already, so I don't bother because it would just be Nintendo games anyway.
>>726983439I want you to look at the past sales of the digital only ps5 and get back to us.
Sony won
>>726983620>Well it is honestly amazing Japanese players bought 23k digital consoles. Don't worry I'm not some snoy coping, just genuinely amazed so many bought it at all considering how people there really don't like digital only consoles. Will the digital sales reach 50k during holiday weeks? I genuinely doubt it will go much higher without Japanese games focused in Japanese style.The bigger problem is that Nintendo already has had an 8 year headstart on that front.

>Genshin switch popped on famitsu most wanted gameWhat? I'm sure they cancelled this long ago.
>>726983863would be funny if they replaced the ps4 version with the switch 2 version.

>hyrule warriors is flopping hardNice. Die you stupid bitch
>>726983921>>726983863Mihoyo games are basically the only thing left keeping Sony relevant in JapanLike most people just use their Ps games for Genshit
Eh, fellow Nintendo sisters, what's going on here?
>>726983628They have massively improved. More than anyone on here had predicted probably
>>726983942>already gaslighting that a token nigger per game is the same as a full pajeet castlol
>>726984169>vgshartzlol
>>726984132Didn't Mihoyo delist the ps4 vversion of Genshin impact because it reached a point where the ps4 literally could not run Genshin anymore?
>>726984169Why is Europe always the outlier with vgshartz
>>726984281yeah. they updated the graphics i think.
>>726984338Because they have no freedom.
>>726984235>pajeet cast >Literally have no idea how big it is beyond a trailer which will obviously only tease a portion of the full rosterLel
>Stellar Blade 2 will be multiplatform>SIE porting Death Stranding 2 to PC>Nintendo buying shares in the Bamco studio that developed Tekken 8Anything else I'm missing?
>>726983115It's been available for preorder all week though?
>>726984338Only market they can get away with reliably lying about since no unified statistics at continent level
>>726984281>Didn't Mihoyo delist the ps4 vversion of Genshin impact Correct.>because it reached a point where the ps4 literally could not run Genshin anymore?No, they updated the engine to have forced gaytracing, which mind you also priced out a lot of people playing it on low end shitphones.
>>726984169>vgshartz
>>726984338Because they can make up numbers for the vast majority of countries in Europe.
>>726981724This is a sequel to one of the posterboys for how divorced Metacritic scores often are from what actual players think
>>726984281>>726984379
>>726981032Wow, PS5 sold five digits again! I give it a week before it's back to third place.
>>726984412Shut up, and don't use that as "evidence" that the sales might be front-loaded
>Vgcharzt
>>726983830This. I'll be skipping niggerweave cause nintendo took blackcock's money.
>>726983091I'm interested to see what they're doing with the story. Fodlan's history is horror tier and the gladiatorial focus fits and is something I'm glad they're exploring. The Church controlled the culture of Fodlan proper to avoid endless bloodshed and cannibalism that would come from learning the truth about crests. The monastery is built over the semi-preserved ruins of what looks like a Roman city with its own coliseum in the DLC. Seeing a region like Alymyra that was outside the ground zero of the Nabataean massacre has me interested.
>>726984704Don’t look up who owns a majority of sony
So, they just announced Switch genshin to make people shut up about zelda?Still, weird that switch never got gacha like PS, even xbox got more despite being completely irrelevant for that.
>>726981724
jesus fuck i was not expecting kirby to open with 200K
>>726981736>>726983825And because all of Neptune's burgers tasted like trash. It was a quality vs. quantity metaphor.
>>726984704
>>726984787nintendo games have plenty of cute girls so gacha games on the switch dont make sense compared to the bleak offerings xbox and playstation have
What's he thinking in this very moment?
PEDOric status?
>>726984916"where will I get my free dinners when sony dies?"
>>726984916Cheese gyudon
>>726984623Fucking lmao. Where are the "this is anti-consumer" crowd?
>>726984960Children can consentStop deflecting
>>726984916He's just reassuring himself that Switch 2 isn't going anywhere and that he was right to not support it.
>The japan-only failed to save snoy in japan and people only bought it as a gachaslop machine.Unironically what can save them in japan at this point? When MH did nothing to save it and instead dragged it to the depths, it may be game over for snoy now.
Reminder Chinese gamers actually love Nintendo.
>>726985106No, he's giving a eulogy. Hee-ho.
>>726984704This is the logical next step for a game set in Fodlan's world. Shifting focus from the fantasy Holy Roman Empire to fantasy Byzantium/North Africa/Middle East is fine, especially when we already know just enough about the culture of Almyra to know war is a constant there.
>>726984338I'm from Finland so I can give you an answer other than retarded idpolshit. I'm not 100% if this applies to whole region tho so take it with a grain of salt.In past, Nintendo didn't do much advertising on Europe as it wasn't seen as very wealthy area. Take into consideration that when NES came out, USSR still was a thing. On top of that localization and translating stuff to so many different languages was hard. So Nintendo had some presence in Europe but not as much as stuff like PC gaming. However when Sony entered the console market, they instantly went for Europe because it was 90s and economy was rising in Europe. 80s and 90s kids can mainly remember when PS1 came out. Some people had NES of course, but even fewer had SNES. And take into account that Sony is a big, BIG, company. Especially back then.So PS1 sells like hotcakes and is "the" console in Europe. Sony also went with advertising to teens and adults who weren't into vidya with sports games and stuff. Helped also that they got stuff like FFVII and pumped out fuckton of games as well as acquired some studios(Psygnosis) and made an effort to market everywhere. Also Playstation controller is masterclass design, even as someone who despises nu-Sony a lot.To many here a video game console *is* Playstation. It gets the FIFA and other sports games and is normalfag magnet with constant advertising. Like Sony let Nintendo take over Japan completely, Nintendo has been 2nd player on Europe after PS1 came out. Shift has been happening a bit as people move to more towards mobile and PC market. Not that much of course but PC is still a big thing at least in Finland alongside the PS consolesBut these days you see mainly people with their PS4s because PS5 costs fuckton and PS4 has same games anyway. Ghost of Yotei? Who cares?Normalfags just want their FIFA(+ NHL here ofc) and Gran Turismo.If there are any other anons from European region(especially UK and Mediterranean), do tell if it's same there.
>>726984916What did I miss?
>>726985338Bamco branched got boughted by Nintendo
>>726984750Isn't the setting possibly Dagda?
>spoilered image with Image (number) filenameNope, not looking at that
>>726985426*a support studio that makes assets for other games
>>726984412It’s still not showing the entire first weeks sales though. Sales do not consist of preorders entirely
>>726985561Afraid of old Japanese businessmen with alleged yakuza ties?
Interesting, his normal posts are missing
>>726985561it's not CP. it's the modern japanese devs worst nightmare.
>>726985318Swedebro here and I can corroborate, PS1-PS4 was huge in Europe with marketing and exposure, meanwhile PS5 has barely had any presence in comparison, the high af price for the console and the games themselves since 2020 also didnt help, Meanwhile I have seen way more Switch 2 ads than I ever did Switch 1 so I guess Nintendo want to claim Europe aswell.Also fuck Bergsala, happy that they gave up and the Switch 2 is now 200 euros cheaper and closer to the EU standardized price
>>726985673He's busy seething about Nintendo in an unrelated Palworld thread.
The absolute state.
>>726985338Nintendo bought (buyed) Bamco's Singapore branch
>>726984818Now post the user scores.
>>726985723>Also fuck Bergsala, happy that they gave up and the Switch 2 is now 200 euros cheaper and closer to the EU standardized priceAs a Norwegian, I agree. Fuck Bergsala and thank God they got fucked!
Also:>[NSW] Kirby and the Forgotten Land (Nintendo, 03/25/22) – 380,060 (New)Pretty fucking good numbers for Air Riders. Keep in mind FL came out when the Switch was 5 years old already, is it crazy to think that AR could pull off a MK and outsell the mainline series?
>>726985782I thought it was Sony that published the game on PC.
>>726985318Also I wanna add that Nintendo wasn't "unknown" back in PS1/PS2 days or anything like that. Mainly that they were known for Pokemon due to Pokemania and of course Mario. But otherwise Nintendo "recovered" with Wii and DS only to plummet back down with Wii U and 3DS(not bad console but you know not the DS either). Switch 1 sold well, and even my little sister has Switch 2 now that she got a job.Playstation just still has a foothold due to marketing and advertising. If Nintendo wants to have bigger chance in European region, they need to find some way to convince that Switch 2 is worthwhile purchase and get the boring normalfag audience on their side. Be it FIFA shit or their own more "normal" racing game etc. but I doubt Nintendo really cares when they have their own thing. They do however get some of the younger people on their side. The ones with computers and phones as their main avenue.Anons might laugh at this, but something like Deltarune 2 being on Switch 2 on launch was quite a big thing. Not necessarily because kids bought or wanted Switch 2 instantly, but because it was a "Wow it's coming to that new console?"-moment and inserted Switch 2 into discussion as a console proper.So.Will kids, teens, gamers, and weebs be interested in Playstation 5(and 6 in future) with their sportssportsports or Switch 2 with fun games? Just wait until next Smash comes out and if Sony hasn't recovered already with proper games it's kinda owari.>>726985723>Meanwhile I have seen way more Switch 2 ads than I ever did Switch 1 so I guess Nintendo want to claim Europe aswell.Also this. On both outdoors and in TV when I visited dad. Constant Bananza and MK World ads.>SpoilerLmao fuck them. I have a Swedish friend and he really has very happy opinions of them.
>>726985485It could be but I'm assuming Almyra since there's a land bridge to Fodlan making it easy for elements we know from Fodlan to get there. Lots of characters having darker skin makes it seem more like Almyra as well. It's close to Morfis which is already known to have a capital city of trade and magic surrounded by a desert which might be where Leda comes from. Dagda wouldn't surprise me at all since Cai and his companion girl look like they could be the same ethnicity as Shamir. Either way I'm looking forward to the game.
>>726985171The seething on Twitter I saw over this was funny
>>726986184>Deltarune 2 on Switch 2Lmao I'm tired. Deltarune* on Switch 2
>>726984235>pajeetIt's anime North Africa + anime Levant with European aristocracy.
>>726985171>Sony is losing China's favorPlaystation will only be popular in New Delhi at this rate.
>>726986184Don't know how it's over there, but in Norway I've seen Nintendo ads during YouTube ad times and on posters in large retailer centrals which is a step up from their usual stuff.
>>726986259I think the Japanese trailer mentioned the Dagza games or something.Plus the ruling class doesn't seem to have the same skin tone.
>>726985782Just how much debt is Kojima in? Paying for all the Hollywood actors to play pretend with him?
>>726986184Switch do have usual normiecore games, except cawadoody which MS is avoiding for some retard ass reason.Is just marketing brand thing, because Fifa, or rather EA sports FC do sell well.
>>726982486they'll both be upscaling from 360p so who gives a shit lmao
>>726986595Here in Sweden its the same, seen posters for MKW, Bananza and Mario Party Jamboree + of all things.
>>726984916he should commit honorable subarashi
>>726984057hope this encourages them to finally move on from botw hyrule to a new locale, sick of it after almost 9 years
>>726986449your cope is tasty!
>>726986723Jamboree is pretty much the flagship Mario Party right now and an evergreen, so I can see why they would want to push that one too. I have also seen Kirby Air Riders posters and youtube ads and Metroid Prime 4 ads.
>>726986898That's not what a jeet looks like and there's nothing remotely jeetlike in the trailer. When the Japanese make fantasy India allegories they're not subtle.
>>726986841they already said that they were done with that hyrule.
Wow, this guy isn't even that dark skinned, if not for bumpy hair I would have just assumed this was a tan.
>>726984057Not true btw
>>726987204He is Greek at worst.
>>726987204Yeah. Im not really a fan of the hair though. Maybe a timeskip will make him look cool
>>726987204I've seen enough unwashed hippie White guys to know dreadlocks aren't limited to niggers.
>>726986394I saw someone blame Nintendo/Pokemon for Atlus being all black, as if Game Freak isn't as well.
>>726986653>Is just marketing brand thing, because Fifa, or rather EA sports FC do sell well.Yeah true, my bad. Just that many on normalfag side still has the small "uh, isn't that console for kids?"I think those companies for some reason wants to advertise to the normalfag audience they already have on Playstation than take a """"risk"""" of advertising on Nintendo side more.But at this rate they might as well advertise for Nintendo consoles. I'm more of a PC guy with Switch 1 that I haven't touched much, but I still wish SIE would get their shit together because I don't want NIntendo to get pseudo-monopoly like Valve, where everyone else keeps tripping over their shoelaces while Nintendo/Valve just keeps doing their own thing and winning.Man I miss PS1/PS2.
Today the schizo is too busy in his PalWorld thread
>>726987519Why is he so hyperfixated on the Palworld vs Nintendo lawsuit, he doesn't even have a copy of it
>>726987204Fortune weave is going to suffer a similar fate to MH wilds if they don't tone down the brown.
>>726987770anything to "hurt" tendies I guess. it's going to be a glorious day when Pocket Pair loses the case.
>>726987770Because he's a glowie.He is trying to help take down Nintendo.
>>726987826As long as the brown is coupled with it being on cute girls everything will be Daijobu
>>726985835Both numbers are worthless garbage.One coming from corrupt urinalists and the other from retarded faggots.
>>726986184Strong third party support is important, sure, but I think Nintendo keep investing in their own ips.Otherwise they could end up like those deva waiting for GTA VI to magically save them.
>>726987770He hates Nintendo and will latch to whatever he has. Specially now that every game he previously latched onto is getting ported to Switch 2, or is Vaporware VI.
>>726987934If all brown/black girls looked like Timerra, I'd welcome the brown any day of the week.
look what just popped up in the catalogue>>726987947
>>726987995>sobering warning about the state of the games industry>Nintendo was not affectedHow do they do it?
>>726987770I actually like palworld and would prefer them repelling nintendo's bullshit patents. Last thing I want is snoys ruining it somehow with their shit karma like they ruined emulation.
Don't worry guys, the badly produced unity ark clone that already eroded its brand by collabing with literal who indies like ultra kill and diluting itself by mixing up with terraria will definitely kill pokemon.
>>726987770He thinks palworld is winning and tendies are seething when in reality no one gives a shit about that game except for NDSfags
Timerra is very unpopular sis, your fagbase is full of racist bigots!
>>726988248shut up, she is a certified cutie.
>>726988248She's an Engage characte, that's just too much of a debuff.
Palword won
>>726987826Do dreads really tank the framerate that much?
>>726985171>Atlus almost all blackI guess the chinks don't like how they were milking Persona 5.
>>726988521the losing competition.
>DEI is totally okay if nintendo does it.I see
>If I don't like it it's DEI
>>726988132It's funny how much better Nintendo is doing compared with their competition when the usual suspects keep doomposting about "the future of the gaming industry" saying stuff like "the gaming industry is in a dumpster fire right now" especially when they try to start forced drama about Nintendo and the Switch 2 at every single opportunity they have
>>726985318German anon here. I can say that for Germany AT LEAST IN THE RETAIL SECTOR Nintendo dominates.This can best be seen simply in how much shelf space is reserved for either platform and it's basically PC Accessories, then the Nintendo area as big as the PC Accessory area, then Playstation about half the size of the Nintendo are and then XBox being half the size of the Playstation area.Whether it means Nintendo only being over-represented in the retail space I can't say, but if it translates into digital sales as well then for Germany at least Nintendo dominates... because Germans already lean more to already having a gaming PC for all their other games.It seems to be specifically the East of the EU where Playstation dominates, so Poland, the Baltics, etc.Funnily enough the PC market being FUCKED right now is playing into Sony's hands because now the PS5 is the most price effective path to high end gaming. But should the AI bubble burst and hardware become more affordable again, this could result in PS5 sales dropping in favor of more PC hardware.
>>726985318>FranceAll I can say is that while Sony has always been very popular with the PS1-4 and has always been the normalfag/brownie console of choice because of PES and FIFA, Nintendo still had a fanbase here because they tried to translate their games to French (young French people hate playing in English), which not many other publishers were doing back then. Their handhelds have always done well and nowadays both the Switch and Switch 2 beat sales records.
>>726988810Maybe Atlus should add more Chinese characters to P5X other than Yaoling.
>>726985318If I recall correctly, Sega also was bigger in Europe with the Master System and Genesis than the NES/SNES. Is that true?
>>726984379I haven’t played Genshin in over a year but it is a legit gorgeous game on the PlayStation since it has improved texturesThat said I couldn’t remember what the fuck was going on in the story and decided I didn’t care
>every other company doing mass layoffs and ahitting out flkp after flop>Nintendo acquiring more studios and hiring as many people as they can to increase their game productionIt's almost like Nintendo was been playing the long game for decades and are finally being vindicated for all the years they were mocked for not chasing Hollywood trends and budgets in their games.
>>726987204>>726987305Mediterranean, really. Also don't forget that in the Roman Ages North Africans were ethnically COMPLETELY different to today.Nowaday they are mostly Arab leaning but that was due to the Islamic Conquests of the Early Middle Ages. By then they were all much closer to the Ancient Egyptians, which he certainly leans into. This ethnicity is nowadays pretty much extinct sadly. But these Northern Africans were a mix of Greeks, Phoenicians, Beduin and the sub saharan tribes migrating through the Sahara back and forth.Basically find yourself a mixed race American with black and white parents with the white parent ideally also being southern European and you get a rough idea what ancient Northern Africans may have looked like.
>>726987204the hair makes him look negroer
>>726987826I hope the trailers show the least bad stuff and the real game is full of pitch black negros, I want the shitskin pandering to die asap.
>>726989324Sony lost all common sense when they started their triple A movie game per year strategy. Ignoring AA games completely.
>>726981032No wonder PS5 sales are up when it’s so much cheaper than Switch 2
>>726989685Don't forget going all in on the Games as a Service train which only backfired spectacularly.
>>726989685>Ignoring AA games completely.not ignoring, actively trying to kill them
>>726989783Literally the moment that shit was announced anyone with a modicum of sense knew that shit was going to fail. GaaS by their very nature want to retain players to the exclusion of basically all other games. Not only were the main pillars of GaaS already established by the time Sony tried to muscle their way in, by launching so many GaaS games all at once Sony would be essentially competing with themselves. Completely fucking retarded strategy all around.
>>726989746Anon, it says used games.Those are second hand games.That's why it is cheap.
>>726989746>Wilds has to be sold at 15 bucks BAHAHAHHAHA
>>726985318Spain here, overall mostly the same as what you say, the NES here was niche but the SNES was decently succesful, I'd say on part with the Mega Drive (don't have sales data or anything just going on vibes)One thing I'll add to explain why the PS1 was so succesful here is that Sony actually bothered to translate its games to Spanish. All the biggest N64 releases (Mario 64, Goldeneye, OOT, Banjo...) were released here only in English, which was barely spoken here. I think the only big N64 games we got in Spanish were Pokémon Stadium and Majora's Mask. On the other hand, all the big PS1 releases had at least Spanish text, and some of them like MGS even got good quality dubs. I don't blame people for switching to PS1 if you take that into account.
>>726990007>Physical copies are down by 90%>The digital-only PS5 can't take advantage of thisHeh.
>>726989746lol this made me realize that even with that bottom deep discount Wilds couldn't even break 5k copies soldhow funny
Why are snoys and tendies in this thread? don't you guys have family to be with for thanksgiving?
>>726989746>Pic says used gamesIs it a win for Sony if the nips are only buying their games from a second hand shop?
So will the next Kirby game sell 500k in week one? How much would a Waddle Dee game sell?
>>726990238>implying 4chan in 2025 is still majority americankek
>>726982219The "Nintendo makes better games when they're losing" myth was always a retarded myth based entirely on N64 nostalgiaNintendo doesn't bother experimenting or trying to make anything niche when they're selling poorly, hence fire emblem skipping the Wii U.
>>726990238>Implying anyone posting in these threads are whitekek
>>726990620Fire Emblem was at its worst when the DS was on top of the world.
>>726983436I fucking hate the Zelda and FE gamewars. Why can't those fags just learn to like things without trying to tear down everything else? It's the same series for fucks sake.
>>726984169Vgchartz makes up numbers
>>726990751FE and zelda have went through significant enough changes over the course of their own series that you will always have arguments over which style of game is best
>>726986184>If Nintendo wants to have bigger chance in European region, they need to find some way to convince that Switch 2 is worthwhile purchase and get the boring normalfag audience on their side. Be it FIFA shit or their own more "normal" racing game etc. but I doubt Nintendo really cares when they have their own thingNintendo's got one goal to dominate the gaming industry entirely. When Xbox and Playstation is dead Nintendo will bag an extra 100-170 billion per generation. Again, to be clear, EXTRA, as in additional what they would ordinarly make. With that kind of money they could do whatever they want, they would become the megacorp of gaming.That's why Nintendo cares so much about third party support. It kills Playstation long-term and that's why it makes me laugh when people think Nintendo and Playstation can co-exist somehow. People are kidding themselves. 100-170 extra billion is an insane amount of money and Nintendo will do whatever it takes to get it.

>>726990751It's just how the Internet is now. You can't like something, ignore what you don't like, and discuss the positives. You have to be at each other's throats and accentuate the negatives. Generations are different enough that players can like and dislike completely different generations of a franchise but modern discourse doesn't allow people to not bicker. There are plenty of games in the FE series I don't like enough to discuss so I just don't talk about them and instead talk about the games I have a real passion for. Zoomers seem to take this as an insult since discussion of older games I like is taking up the space that games they like or hatred for games they dislike could be filling.
>>726990807I get that. I'm an old man who was around when Zelda 1 was still new, and my first game ever was Zelda 2 that my uncle showed me. That series used to change a lot more between releases and people were fine with it. I guess it's mostly Ocarina being the dominant style for the last few games, but even with all the differences I always thought they all felt like grand adventures at their heart.
>>726987035they said that after totk and then they made a new warriors game using it

>>726990675Objectively speaking awakening is still to this day one of the best if not the best FE so no clue what are you on about.
>>726991046It's funny how flop fags claims the switch 2 has the worst launch lineup ever when they had almost to nothing during their era but I guess they're too blinded by nostalgia and thinking nintendo was their friends because of Iwata and Reggie
>>726991258>*and people try claim retardeen isn't a snoy
>>726991258>5 days ago>9.1K viewsKek. So the well is finally running dry.
>>726991368most of the retards trying to claim the wii u was some kind of nintendo golden age are just snoys larping because it was the last window of time in the past 20 years that sony was beating nintendo
>>726989324This is something both Iwata and Gunpei Yokoi had the foresight to see. After the N64 and GC both lost to the Playstation 1 and 2, Iwata switched Nintendo's strategy to trying to do their own thing, and so far it's worked out very well for them. Yes, the Wii U was a failure, but the DS, Wii, 3DS, Switch, and Switch 2 (for now at least) are big successes. Hell, the Switch 2 has only been out for about 6 months, and already it's about to pass the Wii U
>>726987464>Just that many on normalfag side still has the small "uh, isn't that console for kids?"I think that will go away during the NS2 generation when everyone sees it has GTA 6 and all the mature games. Part of the reason why that reputation lasted for so long is simply that Nintendo didn't get third party games so people just saw Nintendo's own IPs and not much else.
>>726990620>>726991046>>726991368Don't you guys get it? "Nintendo is better when they are losing" is just a indirect of way of saying "I miss when Sony was winning"
>>726991349Awakening came out on 3DS not DS.
>>726990620The niggers who say this almost certainly play nothing but Mario, Zelda and Smash. The Wii U had jack shit in terms of other Nintendo IPs aside from a flopped Star Fox game. No Metroid, no FE, no Animal Crossing, and even the shit that did make it on to that console were largely god awful spinoffs.Meanwhile it was successful Nintendo that turned around and decided>actually you know what? let's get Sakurai out of the Smash dungeon and do a sequel to fucking Kirby Air Ride, a game that had mixed critical reception and lukewarm sales on the gamecube, of all things.
>>726990238I already had Thanksgiving with my family, and now I'm just chilling at home
>>726990238My family doesn't celebrate sandnigger death cult holidays, we are still chilling at home tho.
>>726991349It's not. It's one of the worst but it was the one most people played first so it's held in much higher regard than it should be. It kickstarted the careers of a few of the worst people still working at IS and injected this idea that Fire Emblem should always be anchoring itself to past canon whether it works or not. Three Houses was a huge anomaly that mostly came out of Koei Tecmo devs understanding the franchise's appeal better than the scrub crew who was tasked with throwing shit at the wall back in the DS era moving into the 3DS. The design goals of Awakening proved to not really be viable for long term success when Engage ended up falling short of Three Houses, selling similar numbers to Three Hopes, and not succeeding at the goals the director was aiming for. He wanted the game to bring new players into the franchise like Awakening did without understanding that Awakening succeeded due to marketing and timing, not Nami Komuro's writing and a focus on shallow references to other games.
>>726991757when people say that it's referring to their business practices, not the games
>>726991349>>726991693But yeah I was talking about the DS remakes, not the 3DS. The 3DS era was very successful, only beaten by the Switch era's Three Houses blowout.
>>726981032Based
>>726991971That's a lot of cope to try hide the fact antijapan fags cling to FE because it was le serious and le mature during tellius and 3H, and genealogy which they haven't played.
>>726991446Nintendo's next quarterly report is gonna break him lmao, nobody, not even him, ws expecting the Switch 2 to be at 10 million units already.He's gonna have to make a 10 hour long video to explain why the Switch 2 is selling poorly the next time.
>>726985835Considering you don't even have to own the game to post a user score, metacritic scores in general are 100% worthless.
>>726992016Ok? But I don't care about business practices. I care about games.
>>726992016>nintendo's business practices were better when NoA banned 90% of the games coming from japan and censored the other 10% so i didn't have to see any icky "too tranime" slopi mean, doesn't surprise me modern snoys would have this opinion
>>726981736>xbox there>Xbox Series X|S – 349xbox is mocked on the right with sony
>>726991485Yeah but wii babies fell for the meme and actually believe nintendo fans had it better when we just had droughts because we had a small few good games like 3D world and MK8
>>726992016I'll grant you Nintendo did more sales and cut prices more often during their WiiU era. But everything else they were as cuntish as now, if not more.
>>726991446Call me a schizo but I still believe all the doomposting and misinfo about the Switch 2 is orchestrated
>>726992070I'm not anti-Japan, even a little. Kaga's games have a uniquely Japanese view of European mythology which is why I love them. I just don't like the consumerist regression of long running franchises that start referencing themselves too much when they run out of ideas. Awakening was an outright parody of Mystery of the Emblem and I didn't like that at all. Engage is just putrid and completely misunderstands the appeal of even the more lighthearted parts of the series. And I've played all the FE4 I ever want. It's an interesting game but it's not very fun to actually play. I was ready to give up on Fire Emblem back when Engage was announced since an FE4 remake was a part of the leak. Fortune's Weave has me excited again since it seems like they learned the right lessons from the Switch era.
>>726992310Xbrokes need a win, pls understand
>>726992106He's going to keep rolling with the shipped not sold cope and fade into irrelevance like the OG Switch detractors did. The truly deranged will stick around and listen to his copes but people will move on to the next thing to be mad about.
>>726988215It's weird how the NDS fags keep acting like Palworld was going to piss off Nintendo/Pokemon fans but everyone I know who plays it got into it because it was "It's like Pokemon with,," then got bored and moved on to ZA
>>726992427Nah, it's 100% coordinated. NegroDeen started saying Metroid has "Millenntial humor" the exact moments /v/ did for the most recent example.
>>726990238everyone else in my family is sleeping off the turkey.
>Walmart, Target, and Best Buy are all shilling Switch 2 to normies for their Black Friday adsIt's only going to get more lopsided
>>726992562That's some pathetic leeching by xbox lmao. Nintendo is winning big, not barely surviving like them.
>>726992457>I'm not anti-Japan, even a little, BUT...sounds about right for kaganiggerssame as soulsfags really>i don't hate japanese games BUT from are the only good jp devs because its not le icky tranime vtuber gacha designs or crapcomfags before they utterly shat the bed with DD2 and MH milds and killed the goodwill they built up with their "golden age return" that started with dmc5
>>726992745What about not liking franchise regression do you not understand? I want them to come up with something new, not make parodies of games that already exist.
>>726992427>>726992701Don't remember which one because it's all stuff mentioned in these threads and it's hard to keep track of all the shit going down, but apparently some eceleb let slip that jewtube was (and likely still is) paying more for anti-nintendo videos than what they pay for normal ones.
>>726993037Hate gets clicks.
Oh no! Anyway.
>>726992016Wii U Era>shitty third party support>Reggie was anal over anime games being on nintendo platforms >Mario games having the soulless mandate >forced waggle/amiibo shitSwitch Era>Better third party support>Switch is the best platform for JRPGs>mario games starting having soul again the moment miyamoto stopped being involved in game developmentThe switch era is way better. The only loss is the price cuts but it is what it is
>>726981032Kek PS5 destroyed the shitch.
>>726993262>Switch 2 – 126.953
>>726993262We did it sonybros, we outsold the 8 year old tablet!
>>726992656Wonder what's the gonna be the cope when Switch 3 comes out.>Third time's the charm...right bros?
>>726993123>>Switch is the best platform for JRPGsAnd VNs now that steam is anal-er than usual.And JP solodevs because steam is anal-er than usual.And AA devs because a lot of otaku are abandoning steam now that valve is on their late-PS4 era.
>>726993262>Kek PS5 destroyed the switch.
>>726993349doubt a switch 3 will even come out within the century, moore's law is dead and all that's left is optimize current architectureswe may get a switch 2 redux that is basically the same but with better battery life from the reduced power consumption but that's kinda it
>>726993453128 bit CPUs NEVER
Japan alone with these weekly numbers will get S1 over 160mil.
>>726993349>they've been successful for two and a half systems already...but this is where their greed will really start showing!>$500? I can get a PS6 digital only no controller edition used for $700, how greedy can Nintendo get?
>>726981032>8. [NSW] Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD-2D Remake – 8,302 / 286,589Really, it only sold 300k total, and it's in the top 10 with these pathetic sales? Consoles are dead
Why does anyone care about the sales of these items on a dying island that's in an economic recession? US, Chinese and global sales data for growing economies is all that really matters. Even if Nintendo sells 100k Switches in Japan, what does it matter when Sony is selling a million PS5s elsewhere or some shitty Chinese app is making a billion dollars monthly?
>>726990751The Zelda gamewars is just OoT clones vs BotW clones war.FE is just the question is what kind of anime you like.
>>726992106>He went from "Switch 2 is dead on arrival" to "Okay it sold a lot because all the fans bought it, it's over for reals" to "GET A PC HANDHELD! IT'S THE BEST WAY TO PLAY NINTENDO. PLEASE IM BEGGING YOU! VOTE WITH YOUR WALLET!"This guy is fucking pathetic
>>726981032Okay very funny, now include the PS5 games you removed.
>PS5 DE does marginally better but not enough to move the needle>PS5 games lose even more presence on the physical side as a side effect of the digital only model doing betterWell done SIE, a galaxy brain move.
>>726993640because it makes you seethe.
>726993640No.
>>726993690top 30 in like 5 hours
>>726985318>UKYep. Playstation definitely has the mindshare of gamers here, even if there are determined contrarians like me who were raised mostly on PC gaming. The way my fellow countrymen gravitate to footie games, GTA, and the latest slopshooters is just sickening.
>>726993640second biggest vidya market
>>726993668Really fucking funny how he pivoted to shilling PC handheld when one of his biggest talking points is the critique of the Switch's third party support being overly reliant on game key cards and not being physical....
>>726993640Japan is a canary in the coalmine for future trends around the world. They are ahead of the curve and it takes us a few years to align with them
>>726993640The irrelevant pedo island is all the cultists have to cope with
>>726993668worse, he claimed yotei was selling better than nintendo because of digital and that's the reason nintendo refuses to disclose digital saleshe has gone full caco
>>726993910but enough about snoys and the UK
>Already back to claiming Japan is irrelevant after backtracking a few weeks agoWell that didn't take long.
Imagine caring about a dying nation sales
>>726993990>>726994006LolLmao
>>726994006you seemed to care about them a lot last week when you thought that the digital only ps5 was going to destroy the switch and switch 2.
>>726993990He's extra pissy because apparently ZZZ is closing next year? Can anyone confirm?
>>726993910No one mentioned George Cacioppo and the UK.
>>726993990Heh.
>>726993640Because they make the games I like to play, first and third party.
>>726992070>antijapanBut 3H is the most popular FE game even in Japan (Geneology is also up there for them)>>726992457Technically they started doing that back in 6 where they just redid FE3 but slightly different.
>NOBODY CARES ABOUT THE IRRELEVANT PEDO ISLAN>Switch 2 also winning in America, several European countries>NO NO NO NO NON O NO NO
>>726993990Called it kek.>>726590221
>>726994098don't forget the CCP mandate that made hoyo scrub off any mentions or portrayals of japanese stuff from their new bannerswhich came at a godawful time for them because even chinks were getting sick of chink pandering and were fairly hyped for the japan region in shart rail
>>726994098god, I hope it's true. ZZZ fags are the worst Hoyo fans. just under Genshin fags
>>726983863But Nintendo won't allow Chinese game in platform anymore as Nintendo has shut down Chinese server. As nintendo concerns about Chinese game taking over Japanese game's pie, so Nintendo has cut Chinese server. >>726984132Is genshin "national game" in Japan like Apex, Valorant, Splatoon, pokemon, street shitter 6, mario kart? Is genshin equivalent to starcraft 1 and LoL in Korea, in Japan?
>>726990620It's a Wii U cope from people who only played Mario (and other scrimblo platformers), Smash and Zelda. And also liked the price cuts since they could get shit on the cheap.
>>726994271Not to mention it happened just after the playerbase left the shit show that was Elysia featuring a bunch of shitters no one cares about in NotGreecebutit'sacomputersimulationtocreateamachinetokillagodbutitwaskilledandfromitsspacedustNotGreecewillbebornforrealandinthemeantimeeveryonelivingthereislivinginabook.
>>726993831GKCs has to be one of the most forced shit ever. Not a single gaming platform has taken away your digital purchases or at least on a nintendo platform. This whole "you won't be able to play these games 10 years later" narrative needs to die
>>726993640It's so insignificant that Sony did a whole absolute state of play geared towards it and finished with the company president begging for people from said insignificant island to buy a playstation.It didnt work lmao
>>726994434>NotGreecebutit'sacomputersimulationtocreateamachinetokillagodbutitwaskilledandfromitsspacedustNotGreecewillbebornforrealandinthemeantimeeveryonelivingthereislivinginabook....Gesundheit?
>>726994217FE6 was similar but it was a full reboot instead of a soft reboot. Awakening was trying to be a retelling and a far flung sequel at the same time. It was an annoyingly common trend at the time.
>>726994271>>726994434The shart rail worldbuilding/plot/lore is frankly a complete shitshow either way, it legitimately feels GPT generated.
>>726994489GKC are dogshit
>>726994403small reminder that chinks love Nintendo as you can see here >>726985171
>>726992457This retard is excited to play with turd hair and treehouse censorship lmfao.
>>726994489Even DSiware is still up. It's genuinely tiresome discourse.
>>726994489personally i wouldn't whine about the goykeys if they were actually cheaper to account for not spending the money on the sdxc storage to have the game in the cartbut no, they are the same cost as nintendo games that come in-cart
>>726994098If a hoyo game EOS it will be glorious, God I hope it's true
>>726994632preach it
>>726991258>Physical sales mean little in 2025>Posts a chart that has Z-A in second most sold with only physical (which means little according to him)Huh?
>>726993640
>>726994632VII Remake is launching at a cheaper price and the RE collection looks like a good deal. But yeah, otherwise I'd rather just buy the game digitally.
>>726991885being antiwhite destroys the soul anon.Should really stop that.
>>726994632Unfortunately people let companies get away with charging the same price for digital games as retail for decades. All digital games should be cheaper but they're just not.
>>726994567Chinks can't into writing compelling stories so they dump a shit load of "lore" and never bother to make it coherent
>>726994271>>726994341So no Japanese IP collab forever in Mihoyo? Maplestory had Frieren collab in JMS, OPM collab in KMS.
>>726994612Low information ranters don't know this. Old consoles still have their CDNs up and as long as a console has a valid game license they can access the CDN to redownload the game. The GKC just being the license that contacts the CDN when put into the console means they'll continue to function normally even if the Switch eshop becomes a deprecated platform (which isn't happening for a very long time since Switch 1 software is evergreen).
>>726994835Honkai impact 3rd had an Evangelion collab.
>>726994582How can Chinese use nintendo when Chink server shuts down?
>>726994897It is before Genshin release before Mihoyo wants to kill Japanese subculture a lot. Why does Mihoyo want to kill Japanese subculture and conquer them?
huh...where's Son of Eric? I hope he's ok.
>>726995003it was 4 years ago retard. and genshin had the Horizon collab. now shut the fuck up you stupid nigger.
>>726994532Eh, I don't mind it, Awakening was meant to also function as a swan song at the time and like I said, they started redoing those plot points even back then.Engage just anoys me more so because despite the Emblems, the structure of the game clearly only celebrates Fates
>>726995013
Reminder that when sony'pedos are getting BTFO they love to bring gacha drama to misdirect talks about sony's grim future.
>>726990238I'm English.
>>726995013Hes probably avoiding his family at Thanksgiving dinner right now
>>726994632>Digital version should be cheaper than the physical versionYou do know this will kill physical media for good, right?
>>726994897It is before Genshin release so pass. Mihoyo got ambiguous and turned into black ship, commodore Perry after genshin release and eager to kill Japanese subculture so that they never collab with Japanese IP at all after, as they thought Japanese IPs worthless.
>>726994781Fun fact, digital games are indeed cheaper in japan, physically you fork over 55-65 bucks worth of yen, digitally it's only 40-55 depending on the game.Even new stuff for preorder like MP4 right now is far cheaper in the JP eshop.And that's before accounting for sales and discounts, which are FAR more common on the JP eshop than on the westoid ones.Which is even more of a reason to buy on it instead of the western one.
>>726995080It celebrate Heroes you dumb fag!
>>726995064Horizon? It is American IP collab. Not Japanese. Blizz is doing collabs with Japanese IP. Vendetta would open chance for more collabs with Japanese IPs.
>>726995013he abandons his trips after he goes on a pizza spam rampage, happened to all his old ones so farexpect him to make a new one soon
>>726995137Genshin released in 2020 the Evangelion collab happened in 2021.now go choke on your piss eggs chink
>>726995116you do know in japan digital has been cheaper than physical since the 3ds and they still would rather buy physical, right?
Uh oh
>>726995080It's positioned in the meta discussion as a swan song but the game itself is just a soft reboot like every other early 2010s soft reboot. I felt insulted by it 12 years ago and my position hasn't softened at all.
>>726981032>Switch 2 – 126.953 (2.870.398)>PlayStation 5 – 36.983 (7.180.453)Jej...

>>726995414I want a Metroid ride in Nintendo World
>>726995310Don't tell me he started spamming pizza.
>>726995523Started? Bro, he's been spamming pizza all month if not longer.
>>726995414There's no way Nintendo would allow this, Mario and Metroid are completely different in style and tone.May as well make the live action Zelda part of the Mario movies while they're at it.
>>726995216>8 royals with 2 retainers each>your dragon dad is the villain>extremely girly dragon is the main character>your mom dies like 2 chapters in before coming back as a zombie in the endgameI dunno, feels pretty fates.
>>726995414The Marvel Cinematic Universe was a mistake
>>726995690illumination ruined peach and rosalina by making them into girlbosses, nintendo won't do shit to stop universal
>>726995668>Instead of spending time with the only people that are legally obligated to tolerate him he decides to spam pizza What a miserable fucking existence. I'd feel pity for him if he wasn't such a piece of shit.
>>726985901>is it crazy to think that AR could pull off a MK and outsell the mainline series?probably. no post launch updates probably means it'll get left behind, especially once MKW DLC kicks in
>>726985901yes because AR bombed outside of japna
>>726995767he's still shitting up falcom and inti threadsthe former because falcom abandoned snoy, the latter because they found out qureate also got taken over by chinks and the credits of any of their games after duel princess got completely fucking scrubbed off the internet (when people found CH, faglus, chunsoft, and the tekken team got taken over by chinks through game credits)
>>726995835>Japnayour hands are shaking in anger.
Him going back to this "Japan is irrelevant!" cope is all the confirmation we needed to know that the digital PS5 did not meet SIE's expectations at all.
>>726995873?
>>726984916Didn't the him or the suits at Bandai Namco fire of a bunch of workers who were working on Nintendo games a while back?
>>726995414lol not gonna happenbefore the live action Zelda movie was announced I also recall seeing a lot pf rumors about Illumination making a Zelda movie
>>726995887yeah pretty muchalready knew the claims of the new CEO of wanting to retake ground in japan were nothing but a cheap attempt at grifting otaku into buying a pis5 but it's nice to have a formal confirmation
>>726993709They know they aren't beating the Switch 2 so I think this move was to beat the Switch 1 which they BARELY did and it's the first week of the price drop so let's see if they can rack up consecutive weeks of beating a 8 year old console. On the software side, I don't know man, make a game or some shit.
>>726995321Looks like you chased him off
>>726996126>Sony maneuvering to beat Switch 1 in 2025
>>726996126honestly they should have announced the japan-only digital-only sku the same day hoyo announced they were discontinuing genshit support for the ps4it's already the chink gachaslop machine, may as well just play into it properly, and they likely lost a lot of sales by not doing so
>>726995887Hey, at least it might encourage Konami to release alternate art of Maxx "C".https://x.com/financedystop/status/1993727198050873432
Just to show how the schizo is doing
Not a single Sony game listed.
>>726995757the girl boss narrative for peach was such a nothing burger. she accomplished nothing in the first movie
>>726996465Nintendeen has dropped off...
>>726996481It's funny how they portrayed her as stronger and faster than Mario only to be kidnapped anyway.
Too bad I didn’t see PS5
>>726996465>his best performing video is at 55k views a month ago about the THE HONEYMOON PHASE IS OVER THE SWITCH 2 WILL NO LONGER SELLdamn, the fag is really falling off
>>726996465>>726996531>>726996586Looks like Nintendeens honeymoon phase is over
>>726996226They can do it in 2026 if they just fill every new PS5 with cockroach eggs and force everyone to go out and buy replacements when they hatch
>>726996556What is up with that mask?
>>726992701That's because he posts here.
>>726993532But sony said the ps2 was a 128 bit console, anon.Did they lie to me?
>>726996839I think it's a face massager.

>>726996465>That "physical sales mean little in 2025" video was when he claimed yotei was selling better than mario kart world because of digital sales.>That very same video he drops from 60k views to 9.1k>He instantly drops off from 9.1k views to 8k and even further into 6.5k as his most recent one.Guess lying doesn't work long term.
>>726981032>Thread 3I've been needing to commute lately, what did I miss?
>>726988995The future of the games industry can be doomed for all they care; Nintendo isn't going to let that stop them from thriving in whatever future is waiting for them.
>>726995757For a girlboss, Peach was pretty incompetent on the first movie.The biggest thing she did was passing in a training ground on her first try.
>>726997125>hoyo is fucking imploding>the digital only japan only pis5 sku failed to move the needle in any meaningful way despite frontloaded sales>nintendo apparently pulled out of china>there's rumors circling around gta6's cancellation>ea got bought and butchered by saudis>loveR kiss got released for the switch 2 with zero censorship while it got banned by steam>even gooks are protesting to get chinks out of their country after new japanese policies displaced chinks into gookreajust off the top of my head
>>726997356>there's rumors circling around gta6's cancellationWait, really?
>>726996049I remember Netflix wanting to make a Zelda anime directed by Adi Shankar, but Netflix was dumb by leaking the project themselves and Nintendo silently cancelled everything.

>>726997356Duskbloods is being reported as having more time spent on it than any other FromSoft game. Naturally this is making anyone already annoyed at it's existence and exclusivity even more annoyed.
>>726996531>>726996586>>726996704>>726997097Shitting on someone or a group only works if you already have a BIG viewership and you get millions of views in every single video you do, kinda like Cr1tikal/Penguinz0
>>726997681>JUAT TWO MORE WEEKS!!!!1!1!1! HODL
>>726997557They still need at least Star Fox and Kirby for a Super Smash movie to be functional. I guess Pokemon doesn't need another one since they already made Detective Pikachu.
>>726995690The Smash Bros. movie will be like Roger Rabbit. Mario will be CG, Link will be live action, Detective Pikachu will be in a weird middle ground of being CG but the more realistic CG used for his movie.
>>726997681a-any day now, right bro?
>>726997681Uh oh, more bad news for Sony incoming, then
>>726988995AAA shit was gonna get run into the ground eventuallyNintendo really avoided ever risking anything on a budget that huge for a game though even for titles that took forever to release like TotK
<mfw nintedo didn't win goty
>>726997695This reminds me of an 2000s interview of Nintendo and Sega comparing Mario and Sonic games and they mention how Nintendo spends more time tweaking Mario games compared with Sega
>>726988132All they did was not focus on bullshit hyperrealism and stick to making fun games.That's it.People will constantly call their games nostalgia bait but you would be struggling to find someone who doesn't know about Mario.
>>726997978Nintendo: Budgets must be within a reasonable level.
>>726998060Nintendo doesn't even announce anything at the Pride.com Awards
>>726998130The rest of the AAA industry: NOOOOO I MUST SPEND 10 MILLION DOLLARS MAKING THESE HORSE TESTICLES AS DETAILED AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE.
>>726997434>>>>Netflixwewwe dodged a fat fucking bullet there
>>726995757>>726997321The thing was that Peach had higher talent but also ran out of steam sooner while Mario was working hard on the grind and just didn't ever give up.
>>726997356>>726997695Oh ZAMN, tasty.
>>726997978>>726998130>>726998276Someone called Kiwi Talkz said Prime 4 costs 100 million and journos spread that info was gospelDoes anyone knows if is true? Does that even said anything proven to be true
>Sal Romano's shilling Sony's Black Friday deals and only Sony'sOh yeah. Sony is scared of the Switch 2's holiday sales.
>>726997695can i get the article link? i know a huge fromsoft fan.he'd find it neat
>>726998527unironically sounds like BS when botw cost like 12-15 million and nintendo said they were never doing something that expensive ever again
>>726998284Potentially a double-barrelled blast of bullshit.>Netflix>ADI SHANKAR
>Only 3 shitty famitsu threads todayWeird, we should've been in the 5th or 6th thread by nowIs it because of the shitty cloudflare stuff who is blocking legit users?
>>726998527It's probably a blind estimate based on simply funding an entire studio for however many years and then changing to another studio. We don't even know what stage of production it got to with the bamco studio.>>726998571type in duskbloods, filter to this week and choose your news source, most places have made something on it
I'm reading duskbloods comments and it's hilarious. The amount of salt and coping is insane.
>>726998276>Well below even the most conservative analyst forecastsWhat analyst was predicting more than that in the first month?
>>726998701He is too busy spamming Palworld and Prime 4 threads today
>>726998815well i found two, but coulda just direct linked.anyhow I find it hilarious that once Fromsoft partners with Nintendo they bolt down on extensive gameplay testing and prototypingIt's Takahashi all over againlmao
>>726998965he forgot the quotes around "analysts."
>>726997356Also this.
>>726998701Even he realized he can’t cope with this and is spamming Palworld vs Pokemon instead
I LOVE NINTENDO!!!I LOVE MASTORBRATING OVER SALES NUMBERSWAHOO!
>>726999201>MASTORBRATINGSAAAAR!
>>726998579No, the official quote is that BOTW needed to sell 2 million units to break even. Which means BOTW roughly cost $100m to make.
stay mad li'l monke
>>726997695I think that headline is probably a matter of Duskbloods being a multiplayer game. It takes a lot more tweaking to make a game that's fun and engaging for many people playing together than it is for a single player experience.
>>726998060> <>>726999201>mastorbrating
>>726999105>stellar blade 2 is signaling a multiplatform erado people realize how catastrophic is this for both snoy and steam? if everything third party is everywhere then people have no reason to use anything other than a switch 2 given that's the only platform with exclusivesand mind you that is before taking into account the current RAMpocalypse
>>726997125Don't forget Nintendo buying Bandai Namco (Singapore).
>>726999271>visual diareha teh game
>>726998936This is going to be Bayonetta 2 all over again, isn't it?We really are back at the Wii U bad press/doomposting, salt and negativity
>>726999482except this time, the console is successful.
>>726997681Switch 2 is only 3 million away from outselling the Wii U's lifetime sales.
>>726999445i must be too used to GAMEplay on my videoGAMEs because that seemed fine to me, a bit slow evenmy only complaint is they are definitively overdoing the camera shake but im also used to that thanks to westoid indieslop having vidya cameramen that suffer epileptic attacks whenever someone breathes
>>726999585and you can turn the camera shakes off if you want.
>>726999585it's great fun.buy it.
>>726999408I was a PC gamer, I pirated literally hundreds of games and at the end of the day I ended up buying Switch 1 at launch and had way more fun than I ever did on PC.
>>726999536and the game will also be a successsorry not sorry bayo fags
>>726999705Why are you saying that?Bayo1+2 in WiiU did 1mil far faster than it's initial release.It was a success as well.Don't be a nigger starting fights.
>>726981032Meltdown status?

>>726983829PS being the eternal second it's really funny
>>726999664big if truei fucking kneel
>>726999887lmao
>>726999834here not much, he got laughed at for the pathetic pis5 sales and ran awayhes too busy shitting up metroid prime 4 threads and running damage control for palworld again
>>726999908https://youtu.be/_ZHYjYHHiBM?t=3198
>>726999887why even make ONE horizon MMOthere's two now?
>>726999834He's busy seething in the Palworld threads. He was here briefly but ran away because he returned to attacking Japan after like week he was calling it an important market that Sony would dominate.
>>726995414>inbefore retards on the internet want this to happen
>>727000387nah, retards want a live action metroid so they can beg for Hunter to play samus.
>>726999887Since the Horizon game is skipping PS5 it actually might have a chance
>>726999887Probably sold license for piss cheap. Also there is a upcoming chink mobile mmo that they are suing atm.
>>726999973>>727000243I can't wait for the day when palworld loses the lawsuit just so I don't have to hear about that overshilled asset flip game anymore
>>726997681Well, you'd have to wait until 2039 at the bare minimum. SIE and Xbox are going to be long gone by then so...
>>727000929Keep waiting pokefaggot. Maybe instead you should want a good pokemon game to be made
>>727001041film your suicide when they lose.
>>727001041Already have one, and it's called Pokémon Violet.
>>727001041>you should want a good pokemon game to be madeLike legends ZA? pokopia looks fun too
>>727001092>Cultist goy cattle thinks violet is goodhahhaPalworld mogs the fuck out of Violet, retard
>>727000929whats funny is nintendo is suing for a pittanceany real jp dev would have instantly folded to get on nintendo's good graces and recouped the fee costs within hours of releasing a switch portbut no, they continue proving to be chinks by doubling down and going as far as throwing the entirety of modding under the bus to save face
>>727001152Palworld can't even reach the tip of Scarlet/Violet's toe.
>>727001147>ZAI knew tendies had low standards but holy fuck
>>727001165they are also calling for an injunction.
>>727001165pocketpair knows their shovelware would be forgotten in a day if they didn't have the lawsuit to cry about
>>727001207Fun games are good.
>snoy is yet again having a meltdown trying to defend a shitty Ark clone
>>727001210When you think about it, PocketPair should transfer ownership of all Palworld trademarks and copyright materials to Nintendo. It's only fair, after all.
>>727001195>32 million salesHow about you reach the tip of my cock, tendie faggot
>>727001041>He's posting his shitty ports again.
>>727001367>sales
That Palworld thread he was seething in just got archived BTW.
>>727001367*players*also counts pirated copies
>>727001401Figures it's why he's here now.
>>727001401he made a new one>>727000552
>>727001401I think that was his third palworld thread today
>>727001367I love how nervous Palworld makes tendiesThe copes never end
Palfotm asidePokopia really is looking pretty good, it just needs combat and as much content as DQB2 and we're golden.
>>726981032>The PS5 price drop boost wont do any-ACKTENDIES ARENT READY FOR NEXT WEEK
>>727001559looks like fresh shitCan't wait for this too to get moggedCan't wait for pokefag tears
>>727001590you mean when the price goes up as black friday ends?
>>727001590>Switch 2 – 126.953 >PlayStation 5 – 36.983
>>727001515Did something happened to palworld or is this schizo just hiding the fact that the digital PS5 didn't sell as much as he thought
Has palworld ever been brought up without mentioning pokemon? Like is there any record of it just being a thing to recommend on its own and not as some alternative to or means of protest against the other game.I know when it launched there was attention for the absurdity but now you never see anyone talk about palword for itself.
>>727001559I hope we get lots of space. I want to recreate some of my favourite routes.
>>726998276>In a recent blog post on the Japanese GamesIndustry.biz website (via Tech4Gamers), Yasuda stated that he expects the Switch 2 to shift an impressive six million units in its first quarterhttps://www.nintendolife.com/news/2025/03/analyst-expects-switch-2-to-sell-like-hot-cakes-in-its-first-quarter>Nintendo also confirmed the total unit sales for Switch 2 in its first quarter were 5.82 million,https://www.gamesindustry.biz/nintendo-switch-2-sold-582-million-units-in-q1-2025Seems pretty fucking spot on to me
>>727001607>>727001559Would you kindly stop samefagging?
>>727001559loved DQ builders so glad to see that team getting to make more games like itits funny how much pokemon makes palcucks seethe, and how shitty their latest rip off looks that they announced the day after pokopia
Take-Two? Activate order GTA 6.
>>727001702Much like Astro Bot it lives and dies by Nintendo.It has no fanbase, no fanart, no nothing.
If Palworld is so successful, then why haven't they released that VN they revealed years ago?
>>727001776>Implying GTA 6 is ever coming out>>726987995
>>727001702I'd say the only people who ever played it without using the phrase "pokemon with guns" were vtubers who didn't want to get in trouble with management.
>palworld seethe thread dies>anti/pro palworld shit starts up in famitsu thread>actual palworld thread talking about the game remains untouchedCurious.
>>727001679The latter, he also first tried to spam Spain sales threads before Famitsu reveal and nobody gave a fuck
>>727001679The rating on Steam hit Overwhelmingly Positive, that's it.
>>727001979I think some retards had a spergout on twitter at bucky too. Other than that, not much other than an update announcement.
>>727001979oh right, he's been starting threads with a comparison of the palworld steam rating and console warrior faggots spamming their 0 ratings for Pokemon Z-A as well today
>>727001890Schizos magically disappear when people start talking about game itself or when hornyposting takes over.Help that they are ridiculous obvious. Like recent shitfling on Inazuma threads.
>>726994710Yeah I really think he didn't even realize what he did there.
>>727001590Does that excuse why nobody buys PS5 software? You see, none of the PS5 games are on the top 10 chart.
>>727002161Someone should post it in his comments.
>>727001979>Game being fun and sales numbers don't count but rating scores made from randos does
>>727002327Kill yourself, jeet
>>727002449Is it good because you like the game and you think it's fun or do you like it because other people told you to like it, NPCfag?
I'm convinced Nintendo was planning to ignore Palworld until the asset rips became apparent. If it was really about patents they could have started the lawsuit before it released based on footage shown of ball throwing mechanics or whatever. Maybe they were just taking their time building a case in the background, or maybe they hoped it would fizzle out quietly like so many other knock offs. But I still think it's the stolen models. The only other time Nintendo went to court over patents was when another company was trying to patent something they owned. And it's not like they care about Pokémon clones since they host several of them on the eShop. It has to be that they want to get the trial started so they can pivot to the models and slam them hard.
>>726996556SF2 Vega is back in style, let's go!
>>727002449forced meme
>>727001776hmm I sure wish GTA VI could come out quicker
Happy Thanksgiving :D
>>726996839It would be extremely painful
>>727002768they would have ignored it if retards didn't spam their twitter and other socials bragging about the game. same thing with emulation.
>>727002857I'm thankful for all the laughs i get in these threadsmay we get many more!
>>727001367>palworld>salesit's players
>>727002856>my black kween gets ripped apart by mechanical spiders
>>727002768Pal world would have been shut down from the start if they used stolen models. It's more likely the pokemon company is scared of Palworld plushies appearing on the market so they got Nintendo to sue. Anyway one of their patents have been denied in japan already.
>>727001409*Also counts Game Pass downloadsWhich reminds me that Pocket Pair backstabbed Microsoft the first chance they got.
>>727001979that's it? the nigger went on a frenzy because of this?
>>727002768Well no shit.Nintendo is typically smart about lawsuits, unlike sony.>>727002856>So...I heard you adore Satanic Mecha Ants...let's incorporate those into your work flow
>>727002768There's a bit of honor culture at play here. Allowing obvious thievery to succeed just because chinks and monkeys like it is too much. Pocket Pair is like if the Asylum became a billion dollar studio because they hit it big with The Amazing Bulk. There needs to be a chilling effect on these kinds of devs who ride to success entirely off the back of other people's work.
>>727002856>Hmm, how can I turn this wish about GTA into something that would destroy planet Popstar?
>>727002987>Anyway one of their patents have been denied in japan already.get the story right please
>>727002907I'm thankful for the wonderful games I get to share with strangers on the internet.
>>727002987>It's more likely [schizo babble that is also wrong]
>>727001880Vtubers aren't allowed to shittalk any company or game, at least not intentionally. I mean, some holo hoe got bootleg pokemon cart and and people reported her to Nintendo.
>>727002987All Nintendo has to do is modify the patent and reapply.
>>727003031palworld has nothing except crying about nintendo and trying to latch onto more popular IPs with shitty crossovers like its a dying gachaslop
>>727001880The Hololive girls touched it like once or twice at most. Then again the only reason they ever played ARK was because Coco was the only one that genuinely gave enough of a shit that she kept the server running.
>>727003169reminder that even normies started turning on Pocket Pair after their Hollow Knight rip off was revealed in the last absolute state of play.
>>727002987dude palworld couldn't outsell pokémon being on steam, xbox and playstation while being $20 or less. palworld is just ark for people that don't want to spend 60 hour a week playing like they need for the power crept shit ark added over the years
>>727003169>Collab with Terraria>Steal their shit for your shitty Nobeta/Hollow Knight clone that you stole shit from anyway
>Pokemon Legends Z-A is the best selling physical release in North America per big MatNintendo advantage and all but honestly that just seems like the physical market in the US is fucking dire if Pokemon already leapfrogged fucking everything
>>726981032>air riders opening week under 200koof, floppy legs
>>727003116It wasn't even a bootleg, it just probably had an action replay used on it. Kojima's wife bought a bunch of copies of Emerald to search for one that had an unused key item for the Mew even so she could shiny hunt it. Amazingly, one of them did. It could have been legit, but some schizo used it as an opportunity to hound her for it so she gave up.
>>727003267Xbox and PlayStation kind of sold away their marketing for physical in favor of online only consoles
>>727003338so you admit that yotei was a flop as well as the entire library of the ps5
>>727003338>oof, floppy legsnot how it works btw. for future reference "legs" are for week 2, week 3, etc. not the first week, retard-kun
>>727003229>Hollow Knight>bootleg Akihiko Yoshida charactersIt's so blatant.
>>726983040yeah i'm surprised it has done so poorly, i guess the japanese don't care that much about trains anymore, or all the train otaku are just dying off
>>727003368>Kojima's wife bought a bunch of copies of Emerald to search for one that had an unused key item for the Mew even so she could shiny hunt it. Amazingly, one of them did.strangebut cutesad faggots had to ruin it.
>>727003229why did they have to be so blatant
>>726984132>snoy>relevant in japanoh you
>>727003614>whyEven before Palworld they were open about just blatantly copying popular shit why are people surprised they did it for a metroidvania?
>>726996839This shit is more expensive than a switch 2
>>727003747>Copy something that's turned to shit and make it betteruhh based?
>>726984916he's playing the long conthis is all to get bandai to decouple from namco so that namco can then be picked up and nurtured by nintendo and bandai can die on the vine as the snake oil salesmen jews of overpriced plastic junk that they aretrust the plan
>>727003747because people brushed it off as salty tendies when it was pointed out.
>>727003834>palfags shitting on hollow knight now
>>727003834shame they stopped before the make it better part.
>>727003895Based pocketpair has broken Team Cherry's monopoly on the metroidvania genre
>>727003747the funniest part? the pocketpair devs SEETHE that tencent is ripping them off now
Reminder that Air Riders already sold roughly half of Air Ride's Japanese total sales

>>726984057>>726986841it's doing exactly the same (slightly better) sales on other musous tho? the only outlier is AoC

Mexibro that had a famiclone with a fuckload of games that werent repeats, shoutouts to Bucky O'Hare, this was my shit back then.
>>727005003lol
>>727004239>>727004039>>727003747>>727003614>>727003229why is this not allowed for games like if the game plays well and actually work like it's supposed to. i don't really get the problem metrovanias have been doing this for years with way worser egregious bootlegging to the point it's almost a 1 for 1 not to mention this is very common for tencent since these are just one of many bootlegs that were made by Tencent that were also from a big game just like apex legends who also fell victim to this even Nintendo themselves aren't safe from it no matter how many times they send C&D to those games
>>726988921>>726988989correct and correctanything that nintendo does is permissoble so long as snoy continues to existonce the great satan is defeated, then nintendo's feet can be held to the fire. but until then, there's no bigger threat to videogaming than snoy, they must be nuked from orbit and the earth they died on salted
