>>728984318It's literally because they're broke third worlders who can't afford it and there's no emulator.
ok tendie, now go back to your daily famitsu sales threads.
the internet is a constant psyop by jealous people and competing businesses
>>728984318I from at brazil and i owns a switch2 consolei only has two game. not more to play. plays fortinite now.fun
Outside Japan (normal salary man) It's the gaming platform of choice of american soiboys...that's a failure enough
>>728984764Thank you for proving OPs point, faggot. Now quit wasting money on gay shota porn so you can save up to be an enlightened Switch 2 enjoyer.
Where are the games?
>>728984959this picture is older than half the user base
>>728984318Please twist it into a huge success then. I'll wait.
>Fastest selling console ever!>Selling worse on it's first Christmas than Switch 1 was last year.
>>728985886Wow it's almost like the American economy has gone to complete shit since last year.
The anti-Switch 2 sentiment is so artifical and forces. It's literally one or two deranged snoys forcing it.
>>728986020Yeah well, kinda puts a damper on that record breaking plan, huh?
>>728984318It IS a failure. The way tendies try to pretend it isn't is pathetic.
>>728985793listen there are some things more important in life than games and this is one of them
>The Big List of Switch 2 Exclusives>$10 tech demo>Mario Kart 19>Non-Rare DK>Cartoon kart racer that could run just fine on the Switch 1 but Nintendo is greedywowwwwww
>>728986051Yeah, it's doing wii u numbersAbsolutely pathetic
Can't say there's a single game that justifies the console for me. Hate casual games like Kirby and Donkey Kong, Mario Kart gets boring after a while, Pokemon is complete slop, and Prime 4 is just absurdly disappointing.
>>728986387You're absolutely delusional lol
>>728984318A lot of it is the same mental gymnastics I saw on /v/ and Neofag back in 2017 and 2018, just now it's all over the internet because it gets clicks. Time is a flat circle.
>>728986024yeah who doesn't love and overpriced console with no games
>>728984318I agree that the delusions are retarded, sales are factHowever, I can acknowledge S2's success, but also be critical of how semitic nintendo's being in what it "offers"
I think it's selling ok, but $450 + $80 games i think scared off most people. It will pick up momentum after they announce the first Zelda/Mario for the system, but i'm hoping people don't buy it for long enough to force Nintendo to drop the price to 399.
>>728984318It's definitely not a failure and if you're a Nintendo fan that should be a bad thing. Desperate Nintendo is best Nintendo, shit gets worse when they get super cocky. That's why we have $70-80 games, no ability to buy and own classic games and have to pay $60 a year, allowing almost every 3rd party game to have game key cards instead of a real cartridge, and open world slop infecting every franchise.
>>728986387>wii u numbershahaha oh youit's going to or already outsold the wii u entire lifetime sales
We know it isn't saleswise. But in terms of being anti consumer and having mid games, its very much a failure. Switch 1 had two metacritic 97s off the bat, Switch 2 slop is lucky it breaks 80
>>728986883Dunno why you think metacritic matters. BOTW and TOTK both had 96+, and they were both kind of bad. Like ubislop tier trash.
>>728986746>if you're a Nintendo fan that should be a bad thingThis. It's happened before, and it's history repeating itself, with the added bullshit free money that is nso
>>728986592>>728986868>tendies don't understand sarcasm
>>728986443Pokemon and Metroid are also both available on Switch 1 too.
>>728986883I know what does and doesn't look appealing to me, idgaf what critics thinkWhere I take issue is above most issues, how anti consumer Nintendo, and more specifically S2 is
>>728986746>Desperate Nintendo is best Nintendocubefag cope, desperate Nintendo gave us abysmal garbage like Star Fox 0, Amiibo Festival, Federation Force, etc."Desperate Nintendo" eras are the WORST times to be a Nintendo fan if you want anything other than bing bing wahoo Mario games with other IPs relegated to garbage spinoffs.
>>728987024>"Desperate Nintendo" eras are the WORST times to be a Nintendo fan if you want anything other than bing bing wahoo Mario games with other IPs relegated to garbage spinoffs.But enough about garbage spinoffs like DK Bananza and Hyrule Warriors.
>>728986908Even so they are games which remained in public consensus and inspired many rip-off games. You just don't see that level of excitement for Switch 2 anything unless its people playing pretend investors
>>728987156A fair enough point.
>>728986020>t-t-that doesn't count!!!
>>728987090Hyrule Warriors is a Wii U era series and Bananza is the first 3D DK game in over 20 years which released to both critical and commercial success. "Desperate Nintendo" would have just shat out some DK party game with reused assets from Tropical Freeze.
>>728987270>Hyrule Warriors is a Wii U era series and Bananza is the first 3D DK game in over 20 years which released to both critical and commercial success. When the only metric you have to describe a game is muh game journos and muh sales, your game is shit. Don't be a snoy that quotes sales statistics whenever it's convenient for you.
>>728987309>NOOOOO YOU CAN'T USE OBJECTIVE MEASURES OF A GAME BEING WELL-RECEIVEDlmao, you're right, guess I should base how well received a game is based on how often a webm is spammed on /v/ insteadBananza's user score matches the critic score btw
>>728987405>Bananza's user score matches the critic score btwIt's like you refuse to learn from history.
>>728986926Poe's law, anon, there are genuinely retarded people on the internet arguing that the Switch 2's sales have collapsed suddenly and Nintendo overestimated demand (saying this after they revised their forecasts upward kek) because it came 2nd against a discounted PS5 on Black Friday.
>>728986926>you think they're sarcastic when they say dumb shitYou poor naive fool
It's obviously not a failure--it's like, what, the fastest selling console to date, right? Because the whole launch thru holiday strategy revolved around them being available? Anyway my kids are getting one on Christmas morning and I'm pretty excited to see Bananza and MK World (even though I am kind of leery of World for some reason) but I am already tired of how conservative they have been with it. They pushed the launch of the console back an entire calendar year and in the first holiday there are two really exciting games worth owning on it? I don't mean to disregard Prime 4 and Air Riders--in fact I think Air Riders looks really neat, but god damn if they aren't really taking things slowly. I thought for sure that the whole idea with the delay was to blow out the first year. Instead the momentum of the Switch 2 is predicated on what will certainly come later and the fact that the PS5 is fucking stale and will probably never have games and Xbox is dead. The biggest reason to own the Switch 2 is the promise of unannounced games to come. Doesn't feel awesome.
>>728986868False. Its SALES are under 3 million. It's just overshipped
>>728984318A lot of people say they get Wii U vibes from the Switch 2, but I think that's inaccurate. I get Gamecube vibes from it.Both consoles (Switch 2 and Gamecube) even made the weird decision of not launching with a 3D Mario.
>>728988771False, piggy.
>>728988631See >>728988771It's not the fastest selling
>>728984318>3 games in 7 months is somehow a good thingremember the ps2 we got like 100 new games in a single year for the console and like 700 or something total during its lifespanyes 50% of those games may have not been 10/10 but atleast 50% of those were good games, per year btw, my ps2 collection year 3 was like 90 games none of which were on pc
>>728989538>See [my unfounded, unsourced bullshit]
>Nintendo is finished.>10 million Switch 2s sold? Let's actually look at that.>Why the Switch 2 CAN'T compare to the Wii U (50,000 SUB SPECIAL!)>They're about to RUIN ANIMAL CROSSING.>MY NEW DISCORD!!!1!ONE>Nintendo just keeps failing...>I'm selling my Switch 2...

>>728986443>Hate casual games likeChrist, am I back in 2009?
>>728984318>twist this into being a failure>sold 1/3 compared to PS5 during black friday, despite PS5 already having sold 90M+ unitsyou don't need a to twist anything, just don't be a blind tendie retard
>>728989703>>I need to be my true self.
>>728989607>50% were good gamesI just don't know about that man. The PS2 was without a doubt the console of my life, or at least the system that defined my adolescence, but even after goofing around with a modded PS2 and then scooching over the PCSX2--there just aren't that many incredible games that are still stuck on there. You still think Smuggler's Run is an excellent game? FlatOut? Project Snowblind? Out of the greatest games of that generation, how many of them were *best experienced* on the PS2? I'd tip my hat to MGS3 and MGS3, the Team Ico games, and Katamari, but what are the other huge ones? The PS2 was a great venue to play a lot of everything, which was what made it great. The Switch 1 is like that. If you have a Switch, you have far-and-away the strongest library of exclusives in two generations combined, plus it's an awesome place to play indies because indies wanna be there. The only games you miss out on are like AssCreed and Call of Duty. The Switch 2 launch has been a bummer but Nintendo is running a race with no other entrants and are in no hurry to cannibalize the success of their previous console--especially not before its last big holiday. I'm not happy about it. But the idea that we'd be better off with 85+ more modern day equivalents to Triggerman and Simpsons Road Rage and Enter the Matrix and whatever else--that shit sucked man. Even the best lower-profile games from that era like Mark of Kri or Marc Ecko's Getting Up or Def Jam Fight for NY, those games aren't even that good. You go back and play them for a few hours once and that's it. The N64 and the GameCube and the Dreamcast were CLEAR LOSERS in their time, but do you know why people like to back to them? Because it's easy to digest and understand a software library that is comprised of like a dozen or fewer really strong games. That's why people still want to play Chibi Robo and Virtua Tennis and Chu Chu Rocket but nobody under the age of 30 even knows what Spy Hunter is.
>>728990123>>sold 1/3 compared to PS5 during black friday, despite PS5 already having sold 90M+ unitsThe Switch 1 getting outsold by the fucking Xbone on Black Friday 2017 and that was with BotW and Odyssey out.
>>728986443How can you swy Prime 4 is disappointing if you haven't played it?
>>728990123>worst November in hardware sales in 20 years >PS5 sales down 40% yoy to Nintendo's 10%>Sony's the king though nice cope
>>728988771this its JUST overshipped to stores, overbought by customers, and overplayed by people who like games!
>>>/vp/
>>728984402But I make fun of it all the time and I have a handheld that’s twice as expensive as it
>>728990638You are mentally I'll
>>728988771>Its SALES are under 3 million. It's just overshippedRetards still believe nintendo is just dumping millions of switch 2 units to retailers for free lol
>>728992893That moron is going to argue that Nintendo is strongarming them into taking "Shitch Poos" that won't sell, but also Nintendo is going to be bankrupts (sic) any day now.He did the exact same thing with the Switch 1.
>>728984318Cope. He won.
>>728993014He mindbroke tendies
>>728986746>Desperate Nintendo is best NintendoI guess I have to remind you dumbfucks the slop we used to get during the "best" era of nintendo
>>728993014Won what?
>>728989607You decided to ignore every other Switch 2 game, be exclusives or not, out of pure dishonesty so your point is essentially moot.I don't disagree that the PS2 was a monster with a big amount of games, but that was also a different time when western games didn't suck balls as they usually do now, game budgets weren't inflated into bloated numbers for graphics (thus contributing to less experimental projects), and certain companies weren't firing/dropping their employees on the spot instead of cultivating a culture where old veterans would teach newbies.>>728987024>"Desperate Nintendo" eras are the WORST timesI would say they're the worst time if you enjoy videogames, period. I find funny how certain individuals are trying to paint Iwata in a good light when the guy allowed amiboo figurines to lock away actual gameplay content during the 3DS and WiiU era.And the sole real 'anti-consumer' practices Nintendo has done recently were the removal of the gold points and coupons on the Eshop.
>>728993315>removal of the gold pointsIt really bothers me we don't get gold points anymore but they still show the currency on the eshop and nintendo site like if it was never removed
>>728984318I give absolutely zero fucks about the public opinion on games or if it is commercially successful or not. If it's fun I play, if it's unsuccessful and causes the company that made it to cease to exist, then I guess I'll find a different game. It is absolutely baffling to me how much stock people put into whether their favorite game is held in high regards by the public, even stooping to trying to falsify history and/or just manipulate the public opinion. It's legitimate mental illness.
>>728985886hi, sonyggger from the future
>>728993223You're mom
>>728984318Many people are trying to twist many things into being failures all the time because too many people have too much free time and too much access to free validation for whatever dumbass opinions they have. The only way to get an honest take on anything these days is genuinely to go outside and talk to people. The internet is the most poisoned fucking well in the universe now.
The damage Eric did to the brand was devastating
>>728984318I wouldn't call them people.They've spent the last 8 years hoping Nintendo would fail and tried turning Switch 2 into a tortanic. Now that it didn't work out again they are lashing out
>>728993415I found the gold points to be very practical on the Japanese Switch Eshop since I'm only able to buy games and DLCs with prepaid cards. Most often using the points by paying the few yen that were missing in my account balance.>>728993565>The internet is the most poisoned fucking well in the universe now.I can agree on that but mostly because of the generated fake outrage thanks to social media (Twitter, Youtube, etc.) and Nintendo is usually the number 1 topic to get excessively angry at (even for asinine reasons).
>>728985886Niggy, there was no Christmas yet>>728986040No, it doesn't. It's still the fastest selling console of all time
>>728984318I dont have to "twist" anything. The Shitch 2 is a failure. Creatively, critically, commercially.
>>728993115Desperate Nintendo extends into the first couple of years of the Switch. All the biggest games like Odyssey, Smash, Animal Crossing, and botw started development when Nintendo was in deep shit with the Wii U and it was uncertain the Switch would be a success. Those shit games were not the RESULT of desperation, they were the CAUSE.Look at us now, Nintendo got so cocky with botw that they took 6 years to release glorified DLC as a sequel. We're 6 months into the Switch 2 and there are no signs a next Smash game even exists yet, and they've yet to announce a 3D Mario game.
switch to? more like we you too

The last 3 years of Nintendo is arguably the best they have ever been with tears of the kingdom, mario wonder, pikmin 4, fire emblem engage, bananza, MKW, hyrule warriors, etc. Also they are making niche fun games that serve a audience like air riders, metroid prime, princess peach etc. 3D mario is deep in development we know that because the bananza was made by the B team and that game is a masterpiece now imagine the next mario. They have put out more games and more variety of games than both sony and microsoft combined with fucking less than half the manpower and people like you are still bitching.
>>728995286You're never going to convince anyone of your argument if you take such an extremist stance and blatantly lie. I say that as someone who is not satisfied with the Switch 2 overall. Creatively and critically, sure, even though DK has a 91 average, and Mario Kart World despite all its controversy still has an 86. But acting like the Switch 2 is not selling well is just really retarded. It sold 10 million in the first 4 months and will probably be over 15 million by the end of 2025, which is only 7 months after release. In what world is that a failure?
>>728995741nta but Tears of Kingdom was honestly "bleh" but that's especially myself not liking the building mechanics. I did enjoy Fire Emblem Engage, Mario Wonder, Bananza and the latest Zelda musou on the other hand.Also Switch has been my primary platform for third-parties which I assume is what the platform warring anons are the most pissed about, since Nintendo is no longer the underdog of the industry.
>>728995761switch 2 is getting outsolded comparaitively to shitch 1 last year holiday season.you losted.
>>728995761NTA but anywhere outside of Japan the Switch 2 is getting outsold by the PS5 with a ratio of 2-to-1.In my country (France) I can already get the console for 100 EUR off.So it's a mild flop for sure.
>>728995908>Nintendo is no longer the underdog of the industry.I mean they are easily considering mega corps like sony and microsoft have way more resources than nintendo. Same with companies like asus making handhelds and other hardware manufacturers. Nintendo is the underdog easily still. Its also sad when roblox and fortnite make more money than most of the first party games from any publisher.
>>728984318It's a spiritual failure. The only good game out now is Air Riders. Bananza isn't even as good as Odyssey which was already the worst 3d mario game to date.
>>728995761He'll point to Hyrule Warriors, Kirby Air Riders and Prime 4 getting 79 or some shit. Completely ignoring that almost all Musou games get 79 and Air Riders is a sequel to a game that got 61. MP4 was this board's broken clock moment since it actually was a dud.
>>728995993>NTA but anywhere outside of Japan the Switch 2 is getting outsold by the PS5 with a ratio of 2-to-1.>In my country (France) I can already get the console for 100 EUR off.>So it's a mild flop for sure.You realize the same shit happened with Switch 1? PS4 was beating the switch in a couple months. However what console went to sell over 150 million units again? Remind me.
>>728996002I meant in the way that Nintendo used to be underdog with the weak hardware, thus used to have limited third-party support even within Japan. Between diminishing returns since the last decade and Playstation screwing up big time, things changed however.
>>728996107>He'll point to Hyrule Warriors, Kirby Air Riders and Prime 4 getting 79 or some shit. Completely ignoring that almost all Musou games get 79 and Air Riders is a sequel to a game that got 61. MP4 was this board's broken clock moment since it actually was a dud.Yea I know. It means fuck all when like you said those games air riders and hyrule actually are the highest rated in their series and genres. Also, the gamecube era had notoriously bad scores on metacritic for games like warioworld, air riders, chibi robo, every mario party etc. All those games are fun so it means fuck all in the end.
>gets outsold by a 4 year old console in Its original release priceNintenDeen WON
>>728996107>8/10 with the Nintendo bonus for the entire launch lineup>This is supposed to be a good thingHohohoho... Bings really arent taking the floppeded well....
>>728995993Pas mal.>anywhere outside of Japan the Switch 2 is getting outsold by the PS5 with a ratio of 2-to-1What's your source for this claim? Hopefully not VGShartz.
>>728996107>>728996390I dunno why people ever bother to use Metacritic or suddenly trust the opinions of """professional journalists"""". If anything I believe these people are massive casuals who don't play games much.My #1 favorite game franchise, Earth Defense Force, get yellow ratings despite I consider it to be one of the must fun vidya.
>6 month old consolé>already 100 dollaroos offJUST
>>728986208non rare DK is fine. returns and especially tropical freeze were good and bananza is also pretty soulful
>>728996554It’s temporarily $50 off at some retailers . Just like with muh $90 games you have to lie because otherwise you have no ground to stand on
>>728996479This is less about the "Switch 2 flopping" and more the french superrmarkets (Auchan, Leclerc, Carrefour, etc.) being usually highly competitive against each other. Nevermind during holiday periods.Of course, I don't think global shitposters care the slightest about context.
>>728984318it's the most blatant example of forced, disingenuous hate i've ever seen for a console in my entire lifeespecially since this console is quite literally what everyone wanted; a switch, but more powerfulthe nintendo derangement syndrome is real
>it's the most blatant example of forced, disingenuous hate i've ever seen for a console in my entire lifeespecially since this console is quite literally what everyone wanted; a switch, but more powerfulthe nintendo derangement syndrome is rea
>>728997349Wrong pic?
>>728997201I don’t think that’s what consumers wanted. What we got is the “bare minimum” like when TotK came out and the consensus was “I don’t care if it’s the same map just give me dungeons!”
>>728997712>10x power upgrade and best performance to price ratio in its class is “bare minimum”
>>997712AI post
>>728997771Wasn’t this shit originally called the switch pro
>>728997201I don't think there has ever been a more concentrated effort for straight up misinformation or pointless drama like it's been done towards the Switch 2, including pre-release. I even thought for a moment the Switch 2 was region-locked because of the way the journalists were reporting. Then you get the hysteria over shit like the terms of service and else.If anything, I'm laughing on how the bubble of the Internet stood hardcore against the Switch 2, thus ultimately proving that what you read on the web is really not linked to the real world.
>>728996465How much Switch 2's were even available in the US/Americans in that time period?Do people think that there were more PS5's available or Switch 2's?
>728997201>forced disingenuous hate>when Nintendo raised the price of the console by $110 outside of Japan for no apparent reason>when they (unsuccessful) tried to raise the standard industry price for games from $70 to $80.>when they're still using potentiometer sticks in big 2025 for their controllers>when they also cheap out on the battery and screen of their new console>when they charge $10 for letting you use the extra performance of the switch 2 in games YOU ALREADY OWNDon't even deserve a (you)
forced disingenuous hate post right there just above this post
>>728997882>>when Nintendo raised the price of the console by $110 outside of Japan for no apparent reasonFirst point alone is enough to tell how low-IQ you are. The Switch 2 isn't cheaper for the Japanese in Japan, they don't earn salaries in dollars, therefore it costs the same for them as it does for us.
It's gonna be hilarious when 'Tendo eventually release the next 3D Mario and Zelda and all of the doomposting faggots "arguments" will wither awayThe meltie is gonna be glorious
>>728997882>$70 to $80 gamesWhere are those fabled 80 bucks games?Because when I go to the store, the games are 50 bucks, just like on Switch 1God I love ultra competitive French hypermarket chains so much
>>728997967?
>>728997808It wasn’t.
>>728984318How much do you get paid to shill Nintendo all day everyday?
>>728998175It was until investors started putting pressure on nintendo
>>728998136You're a dumb monkey. 49,980 yen for a Japanese person is ~499 dollars for an American.Again, the Japanese don't earn dollars. When the yen tanked in 2021 compared to the dollar (or euro) the nips didn't magically get 1.5x salary increases to match the current exchange rates.
>>728998136They are paying equivalent of $500. It costs the same in yen as PS5 did in 2020. It’s 50% more expensive than Switch 1 just like in the Us and Europe.Yes, Nintendo is losing money on every Japanese Switch 2 unit sold.
>>728998240Probably paid in rupees
>>728995928>>728995993Selling less than another highly successful console, including one that may possibly become the highest selling console of all time, is not a failure. Going by that logic, every game that sells less than GTA 5 and Minecraft is a failure. That's retarded.
>>728998258No, it wasn’t. If 10x power uplift is a “Pro” model then what do you call 4x power uplift from PS4 to PS5? Even PS5 Pro isn’t 10x stronger than PS4
>>728998306>>728998297?
>>728998391>10x the power>still can’t run skyrim The math ain’t mathing
>>728998432oof tendies btfo
>>728998432>dumb moneky is thinking through exchange ratesIf the dollar were to crater down against the euro, in a similar fashion of the yen right now, it wouldn't mean the americans are paying things "cheaper" from their own POV either.
>>728998432>>728998475Don’t waste your time. Tendies are actually brain dead retards
i bought this piece of shit on launch day and its still sitting at 11 hours playtime total.for me its the worst console ive ever purchased right now.
>>728998716This isn't a PS5 thread.
>>728990469>Chibi Robo and Virtua Tennis and Chu Chu RocketLmao what kind of tranny dogshit are these games?
>>728986616Snoys. They bought 80+ millions of a literal piece of shit with no games.
>>728986746>Desperate Nintendo is best NintendoWhere did this idea ever come from, it's so far removed from the experience of having actually lived through the eras in which they were "desperate"The internet would absolutely be shitting blood 24/7 if modern day Nintendo were to release something akin to Amiibo Festival or which was as unpolished as most notable Gamecube games
>>728998562>exchange rates don’t matter!!1!cope nintentrannymutt
>>728999806I didn't say that, fag. I said that you SHOULDN'T look at exchanges rates and thus believe the Japanese are buying things "cheaper" because the value of their currency went to shit.Like, I've gotten most Switch 1 games directly on the Japanese Eshop because it was cheaper for the gaijin as myself, with games costing 6500 ~ 7000 yen (~40€ with the current rate) instead of spending 60€ in my western european country. That doesn't mean however that things are cheaper for the nips though, in fact they spend a lot more money on vidya than we do.
>>728985886>selling worse on christmas than switch 1>its not even christmasyoure getting desperate saar
>>728993014This.
>>728998070note the (unsuccessful)ly*
Xbox Series S/X sold 12 million on its first year, then sales collapsed due to brand damage and a garbage lineup of games. Having good early sales means jackshit if you cannot keep up
>>729001182>Xbox Series S/X sold 12 million on its first yearThat's already beaten by the switch 2 at this point. The wii-u took 4 years to even reach that much.
>>729001182Series first year was 12 months, Switch 2 went past the 12 mil mark after 6 months, first fiscal year will probably be 19-20 mil, Nintendo's predictions are constrained by supply, and I don't get how people just choose to ignore that there's literally limited supply, Nintendo couldn't outsell PS5 last month because there weren't enough Switch 2's available on store shelves to hit that number.
>>728998716The first year lineup was announced at launch, you knew what you were getting into but still decided to buy into it.
>>729001280>>729001560The switch 2 will fall off a cliff once it hits its first year Total sales will be 20 million for the rest of its lifeFACT

>>729001683>The switch will fall off a cliff once it hits its first yearSame false claim eight years ago.
>>728984318no good games
>>729001683
>>729001832>WHO ARE YOU YOUNG LADY?
Shitendo is bankrupts, LOLKEKKYPOOOOOOOOOO
>>728984318i bought one and my question is: WHERE ARE THE FUCKING GAMES? Third party games are all key cart garbage and i don't give a fuck about some DQ Builders Pokemon reskin just like I didn't care about some Dynasty Warriors Zelda reskin. The big upcoming game is fucking Yoshi. Unreal.
>>728997971Not really. It would still have a bad screen, game keycards, high prices, the mid games which aren't those two, rubbish third party ports etc. And Zelda historically doesn't come until near the end of a consoles lifespan
>>728987024>desperate Nintendo gave us abysmal garbage like Star Fox 0, Amiibo Festival, Federation Force, etc.Huh? That was confident Nintendo riding off the insane success of the wii
>>728984318cool now go enjoy "classic nintendo franchise: but open world"
>>729001560I am talking about branding and games. Tell Nintendo to keep a good reputation and stop making wokeslop like Metroid Prime 4.
>>728993115Ultra Smash was a lot of fun with friends
>>728984318Flop
>>728985886you are talking about ALL consoles though. selling better than Xbox AHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA
>>728984402Exactly. Next year is going to be even worse.> Elden Ring> FF7> Duskblood> Resident Evil 7,8 and 9> PragmataSince Prime 4 was the last "big" Nintendo game, I am pretty sure Nintendo will release a big Direct with upcoming 1st parties.Also, I just found out Factorio is having a Switch 2 version, and the dev complained before he didn't have the devkit so I understand the "lack of devkit" rumors is not true anymore.If GTA6 ( literally Sony's last hope) doesn't launch in 2026, along with the price increase across the board, next year will be VERY rough for shills.
>>728986616I agree, I am surprised PS5 is selling as much as reported.
PS5 is not selling at the same rate as Switch 1 was last year>Da economyHoliday spending is higher than ever you fucking idiots.
>>728989703>I'm selling my Switch 2... (100k Sub Special!).>I brought back my Switch 2. Here's why.
>>729005370You are mentally I'll
>>728984318Success or not it doesn't matter it's worse than swithc since it's more anti consumer1-game key cards2-nintendo censorship regulations3-Furukawa didn't fund shit pretty much no games
>>729005712Shitendo is the most evil and greedy company in human history, and it's not even close
>>729005712>Anti- consumerI fucking hate leftists, holy shit. A made up word to complain about "I don't like this, but I can't control my impulse and I lack of self-respect, so I begrudgingly have to buy"Weak ass bitches
>>729005795This
>>728989703Whats insane is that this is too lowkey to be real, I have unironically seen a 5+ million subscriber tech youtuber claim that the Switch 2 is anti consumer since it INCLUDES new joycons and a dock and how it is "artificially raising" the price of the system. That was the moment I realized that its all a fucking grift.
>>729005938No, you fucking moron, it's more "I WANT to buy this, but its pricing or some other shit is leading me to not do so out of principal"
Bad games. No games. No real system sellers.
>>728986208This shit is why no-one will ever take you seriously outside of shitposters.
>>728984402Oh yeah, I'm so triggered that I can't play:>Mario Kart "Drive in a straight line" World>Donkey Kong "press punch to win" bananza>Kirby Who RidersAnd>Metroid Prime "driving through a barron wasteland" 4Nintendo fanboys are a joke.
>>729005289oh the seethe is definitely going to get worse by the time the third-party support on Switch 2 gets even crazier than it is nowI think the sole notable upcoming releases skipping Switch 2 for now are Code Vein II and Ace Combat 8 but I'm also entirely fine to never play them if Bamco refuses to publish them on Nintendo. I have already far enough games to get busy next year.
Buy an ad.
>>729005289I wonder who will be the first to make a big budget Switch 2 exclusive and for it to be a runaway success? I'm kind of hoping it's Square Enix so they can just sit there and realize that they wasted the last decade. I'm also worried that Duskbloods will be just that, and it will cause an ungodly amount of seethe.
>>729005938I didn't buy it. I don't care about the word itself just describing how companies are choosing to fuck over consumers not sure what got you mad. I'm not leftist or right I don't give a fuck about american politics.
>>729008184No one because the shitch poo flopped
>>728984318The reason is obvious, the only thing they can do is cope and seethe.
>>728984318A console with no games>inb4 b-b-b-b-b-but muh [insert kiddieslop here]!!!!No games.
>>728990123Black Friday died when online shopping became a thing.
>>729007543DoneWhat now?
>>729009043But enough about the Flopstation 5
Notice how only the same few weirdos like anti-eric guy and pauline theorist actively defend nintendo
>>729007221>I'm shit talking games I haven't played
>>729011182ok eric
>>728993115It's funny how shit even the top 3 is. >paper jamBankrupted the studio>tri force heroesi now remember its existence>star fox zerokilled the franchise and is only remembered as an example of a bad control scheme and the failure of the wii u
>>728984318They've been seething about Switch 1 sales for almost a decade but now use it as a measuring stick to mark the Switch 2's "failure".
>release nothing but mid to shitty games>tendies celebrating because their friends made money while giving them nothing to playI really hope the February direct is good because I’m insanely disappointed by this thing. I bought it to play old games apparently.
>>729006617>I have unironically seen a 5+ million subscriber tech youtuber claim that the Switch 2 is anti consumer since it INCLUDES new joycons and a dock and how it is "artificially raising" the price of the system>new joyconsWhat the fuck? How does he expect people to use it without controllers?
I'm just wondering what my 4th Switch 2 game is going to be. I've skipped Metroid Prime 4.
>>729002841Posts like yours baffle me. Do you do no research? Do you not have a sense of how long it'll likely take for your favorite franchises to get a new game based on when the most recent one released? I'm not sure how you can act so blindsided by the current release line-up outside of Bananza over a new 3D Mario and Sakurai working on something besides Smash.
>>729015190I bought in because the price dropped $50 during the holidays and I'm expecting the RAM shortage to make prices increase next year.
Is the reason why GameCubesnoys seethe so hard at the Switch 2 because the console sold more in one week than the Gamecube sold in its entire lifespan?
>>729015508Fair enough. I'm not looking forward to everything inflating in price, either, but you're still probably going to be waiting a while for the major headline titles to actually release.
>>729015508that still begs the question why you would buy a console system if you're personally struggling this much to play games (be Nintendo or third-parties, exclusives or not) on it
>>729015776>GameCubesnoysPlease shut the fuck up. Part of why Switch 2 and its fanbase are so hated is their obsession with boogeymen like snoys and Eric. Switch 2 is seethed at because the other 2 consoles aren't of interested and (ex) nintendo fans are disappointed in the current direction of nintendo. That's all there is to it. When the great games like Smash Bros. and mainline Mario are out a lot of the discourse will be gone because fans will have a game of substance to discuss
>>728984318it's not a failure by sales metrics, it's a failure at having any games
>>729011461Hey retard, this isn't the 90s anymore. People can watch actual gameplay clips now and it's even easier than you talking to your favorite little AIslop
>>729016129>system is out for less than a year>"IT HAS NO GAMES!!!"every fucking time
>>728998432Tendies will twist themselves into pretzels to defend their friends. They’re honest to god cultists anon. You should know better than to talk with one.
>>729016259>and it's even easier than you talking to your favorite little AIslopWhat kind of schizo sentence is this?
>>729016270>don’t you DARE compare the switch 2 to the switch 1 launchCultists faggot.
>>729016349it's called "making a generalized guess" because most of /v/ is brown and loves LLM regurgitationsorry you're incapable of figuring out nuanced discussion, then again you ARE a fucking retard
>>729015867I'm looking forward to Duskbloods but we don't have an actual concrete date for that yet.>>729016034So I can be set for the next 8 years worth of Nintendo games and timed exclusives at what might be the lowest buy in price we see for the hardware.
>>729016493Switch 1 is 100% Wii U ports so it would be pretty fair
>>729016101>Part of why Switch 2 and its fanbase are so hatedOh fuck off, snoy. GameCube fags and snoys will always the most hated fanbases in video games no matter how you try to manipulate the narrative. Keep trying to spin the narrative like how you desperately keep trying to spin the fact that the Switch 2 is a massive success though.
>>728984402>broke third worlders can't but the cheapest console
>>729016101>(ex) nintendo fans are disappointedSo in other words, snoys? Why would actual Nintendo fans be disappointed when Nintendo is more successful than ever?
>>729016792>Why would actual Sony fans be disappointed when Sony is more successful than ever?
>>729016573Lmao the the switch 2 is all paid performance patches for switch 1 games
>>729016879Performance patches are free
>>729016493I didn't say that, though I will now. The Switch 1 launch was exceptional by any console's standard, but then again it heavily relied on Wii U ports, one of which is the most overrated game of all time. Also, xenoblade fucking sucks if you're not a weeb.
>>729016615Correct.
>>729016504>gets called schizophrenic>doubles down on the schizophrenia>refuses to take meds
>>729017017>. The Switch 1 launch was exceptional by any console's standard, but then again it heavily relied on Wii U portsNTA but yeah, they're attempting to do that again with the Switch 2 ports of Switch 1 games(games like Kirby, BotW, TotK, and ACNH getting physical rereleases for the Switch 2) but it's a bit different when you're porting games everyone already played vs games no one played.
>>729016270switch had botw and splatoon 2 by this pointgamecube had melee, pikmin, luigi mansion, animal crossing, REmake by this point, and sunshine with a yeareven the wiiu had nintendoland, pikmin 3 and wonderful 101 by this point, and 3D world within a yearsuufami had fzero and super mario worldswitch 2 only has bananza. very very weak launch. and this despite nintendo having more resources to make games than they ever have before. this should be their strongest launch, not their weakest
>>729017253wow, you really ARE retarded
>>729016986Except for Pokémon and Metroid and Zelda botw and totk and…
>>728984318Its a failure to me cause I'm not interested. Thanks for coming to my talk
>>729017374Tendies buy $20 snes roms Nintendo knows its retarded fanbase well.
>>729017501>"you don't get it retard, there are brown people talking to me at night, they're in the ceiling and they use AI to trick normies into thinking they're not real"
>>729017209feels good to be a first worlder then
>>729017383I'm almost tempted to make a proper research and create a comparison picture, just to prove claims like yours are essentially bullshitThe Switch 1 was certainly weak at its launch year, especially when it comes to third-parties, compared to the Switch 2. I sure didn't bother with a Switch 1 until it reached halfway into its lifespan.
>>729017772no one who posts entirely in greentext is capable of arguing coherently and you're proving that right now by projecting your insanity please stop bothering me
Is there a reason why Switch games were ever 60 bucks in the first place? Nintendo is supposed to make insane profits just from pokemon alone, and it's not like they're wasting money on realistic graphics and celebrity voice actors, right? So surely this means the games should be a lower price. They have no reason to ever raise the prices, and could've remained the only company immune to inflation.
>>728993115Eh… Zero is overhated.
>>729018507No it isn't, the fuck?
Buy a Retroid Pocket G2. It runs PS2 games and GameCube games flawlessly for only €170 and all the games are free and 2000s kino instead of paying €80 for ports of Switch 1 games
>>729016573>lol nobody bought a wiiu>WTF NINTENDO I ALREADY PLAYED THESE GAMES ON WIIUSchroedinger's console
>>729000727>>729005221This might shock you, but people don’t buy stuff for Christmas on Christmas Day
>>729018584I mustve missed bonanza and air riders coming out on switch 1
>>729018584you cubies aren’t even trying to hide it anymore
>>729018439Reminder that you brought up AI and brown people out of nowhere. There was nothing to coherently argue about in the first place.
>>728984402>you're poor because you don't want to buy a handheld that's extremely shit as a handheld due to its incredibly poor screen, battery life and unergonomic controlsdo you people even understand the concept of value?
>>729018709find a PS4 level handheld with a good battery life. I'll wait
>>728984318it's not a failure but it does suck and that's worse
>>729018709These are the same people who trash talked snoys for defending pay2play online, and then did it themselves the moment the switch did it.
>>729018761maybe the entire concept of a ps4 level handheld is fucking retarded to begin with
>>729018829not at all. Now show me the handheld
>>729018829This. I'd rather play my homebrewed Vita or PSP.
>>729018953this is why I moved to chinkhelds personally
>>729018709There is a difference between not wanting something and actively participating in an Internet group to hate something (you never planned to buy anyway) like a rabid dog
>>729019014>YOU CANNOT TALK ABOUT THINGS YOU DISLIKE>4CHAN IS A HUGBOX, DON'T HURT MY FEELINGSkek
>>729018708>remindergo back to sucking dicks on reddit
>>729017017The only Wii U ports early on were Mario Kart and BoTW. It also helped that the Switch was an actual handheld, so even if you could get those games for the Wii U, they had more value on the Switch. This is why Nintendo could get away with porting games to the Wii U in the first place.
>>729019071lad the fact you parroted the exact same talking about the screen, battery life and controls prove you're this gullible and influenced by hate groupsLike i'd agree with the battery life not being great but we have PC handhelds being heralded here so this talking point is rather moot.
>>728984318Super Switch!
>>729019071>admits to shitposting instead of actually caring about the system's valueimagine my shock
>>729019195>>729019175>you don't actually hate the console, it's le evil hate groups trying to ruin video games destroy fun!
>>729018761the switch 2 has a 20w battery, the deck has 50 and newer pc handhelds have at least 70not to mention that they're not propped up by that hardware, it's a one time sale for them while for nintendo it's a platform for their overpriced and extremely profitable gamesif you're going to release a toy that can do one thing and one thing only it should be at least good at that thing
>>729019175>everyone recognises the same flaws because they're so blatant and severe>this invalidates the complaint somehow???
>>729019206>cheaper system uses cheaper partsWOW, I wonder why the $450 system doesnt use a more expensive battery!
>>729019292a $450 system that leads to sales of $80 software and has a subscription attached to itwhy the fuck does valve offer an oled, better feeling controllers and a 2.5x bigger battery at that price point when they get way less revenue attached to that hardware sale?
>>729019285its very good at what it does. no other system is $450 that reaches PS4 levels of tech, and it supports their ecosystem of nintendo games just fine. Just because you want it even cheaper doesnt mean its financially feasible
>>729019175if everyone says something's shit then it's probably actually shit and not just a bunch of contrarian trollsyou yourself even confirm one of the talking points
>>728985886It's still early in the console's life, so it's mainly selling to enthusiasts right now. Give it time. By the end of next year a lot more games with broad appeal will be out for it.
>>729019382steam is discontinuing their cheapest deck, and they sell less because the majority of its userbase already has a PC. The deck family sells pissants compared to switch because people want nintendo games
>>729019281>>729019290>>729019397>>everyone recognises the same flaws because they're so blatant and severe>>if everyone says something's shit then it's probably actually shit and not just a bunch of contrarian trollsWeird how nobody made a big deal out of the screen at launch until Digital Foundry made a video in July. Again this proves how the Internet """""people"""" (aka not part of the real world) are this gullible and influenced by their social media overlords.
>>729019397>if everyone says something's shitthat doesnt happen though
>>729019521I have never once watched a Digital Foundry video. I just don't like the switch or switch 2. also don't like their game libraries.I prefer indie games and multiplats. And unfortunately the Switch versions are the worst.
>>729019546dumbass
>>729019487and that lcd deck is not only cheaper than the switch 2 but it was also a fully functional pc that's bringing in way less revenue due to people playing older games and cheaper indies on itagain, why is nintendo asking for more profit on their hardware on top of more profit on their software and why do you defend it?
>>729019651ad hominem. concession accepted
>>729019170Pokken Tournamnet was early in the Switch's life too.
>>729019665why are you once again blaming nintendo for putting games up to a market standard every other console(and even steam) was already doing?
>>729019521that just means tendies that bought it when it had no games have no point of relation as to what a good screen looks like
>>729019693no one says this though
>>729019759because those other games are much more expensive to make?nintendo copied the price without copying the production costs
>>729019759I can blame Nintendo for sinking to sony and Microsoft's low bar, when indies can sell for as low as 99 cents and still make great games.Tell me, why can't Nintendo sell 20 dollar games like Hollow Knight: silksong? AND they already announced free DLC, while pokemon demands 30 bucks for crap.
>>729019773>supposed tech guys couldn't find out that the screen was actually flawed until SEVERAL weeks later after their initial test of the Switch 2 and the gamesit really makes you think
>>729019872prime 4 is the most expensive metroid game nintendo's ever released
>>729019521DF made the video in response to the complaints, dumbfuck. You can easily find comments about the screen from users before journos started making articles about it. https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/1l4vfke/motion_blur_on_nintendo_switch_2_screen/https://www.reddit.com/r/NintendoSwitch/comments/1l6gtrl/the_switch_2_screen_has_poor_response_time/https://famiboards.com/threads/nintendo-switch-2-screen-feedback.13984/
>>728984318>Acting surprised that "alt righters" are trying to twist and spin the narrativeAre you for real?
>>729019858youre right. Almost nobody says the system is shit except youtube grifters and third worlders who cant afford one
>>729019954That's their fault for bungling the game and needing to restart it from scratch.
Nintendo engineered themselves into a corner with the switch.>powerful enough for their standards to function as a living room console>easily portableNow they can never go back.What else are they gonna do from now on? They can't justify a new console that's not portable. It's just gonna be a new Switch every 6 years until Nintendo finally suffers a financial blow like Sega and then it's going to be Super Mario on Playstation.
>>729018507The hate was deserved anon. The controls were garbage and the story was just starfox 64 again
>>729019919i don't get what you people gain by trying to downplay this as a hate wagon when you're the main victims of thisnintendo chose profit over your viewing pleasure despite making money on you hand over fist
It stopped being funny a long time ago. It's disturbing seeing some people lose all common sense just because nintendo is doing okay.
>>729020017so you agree then, they put lots of money into their games
>>729020026It's sad because the Switch 2 is really pushing the limits of portability with the size and poor battery life. I'd like Nintendo to go back to real portables but it seems like that's never going to happen.
>>729018461Other companies raised to $70 so Nintendo has actually been cheaper for ages now
>>729020026seems to work just fine for PS and xbox
>>728985634Not even. PS5 (five year old console btw) is still outselling it outside of nipland.
>>729020208source: VGshartz
>>728998432I know you’re financially illiterate but this is really embarrassing frankly. Let me ask you this. When Covid hit did your boss give you a raise commensurate with the inflation you experienced?Or are you just an unemployed nigger on welfare and thus don’t understand money because you’re a useless leech?
>>729020115They wasted alot of money. That's not my problem. Much like I don't care how much sony spent making Astro Bot, it should be 10 bucks max.
>>729020124No one makes games for handhelds anymore. Look at how much less third party support the 3ds got compared to the ds. The 3ds selling worse is part of it, but it's not the entirity of the issue. They can't make true handhelds anymore since this issue would've been even worse than the 3ds had. I don't think Nintendo can really exit the hybrid form factor anytime soon.
>>729020026>Super Mario on PlaystationYou mean on GeForce NOW.Consoles will cease to exist within the decade. Big tech billionaires will force everyone onto cloud gaming by making consoles/personal computers unafforable/outright impossible to build/sell.
>>729019759nta but $70 for nintendo is different than $70 for anyone else. $70 for nintendo means games are $50 on sale max. $70 for square enix means games are still going down to $20 on sale just like the $60 games did, only early buyers get fucked. ff16 was a $70 game, it's now $20 all the time. nintendo's switch games were $60, you're lucky if they go on sale for $40. botw is now $70 without the dlc included on switch 2 so lol.
>>729020183Really? So why is Hollow Knight Silksong only 15 bucks on sale right now?
>>729020358I was satisfied with the support Nintendo, Squeenix, Capcom and Atlus gave the 3DS. Frankly I liked the 3DS library a lot better than the Switch. But I know that's a minority opinion.
>>729020421>$70 is different from $70 because I want sales!thats not it works, retard
>>729019965The thing about the poor response time seems to be a lie since I can play rhythm games just fine on the Switch 2 without tinkering in the options, be handheld or with my large PC screen.
>>7290204893rd world comprehension fail!Hes right though. Once you factor in the physical cartridge cost (which will skyrocket during the chip shortage) there a baseline that can't be crossed without losing money for the publisher. Sony has discs which costs pennies to manufacture, with larger storage capacity. You'd think nintendo would have learned its lesson from the N64 days, but here we go again. PLUS, Nintendo hates putting their games on sale. So $70 for a game means it'll only drop by 10 or 20 on sale, where a $70 Sony or steam game could plummet to 10 or 20 in total.
>>729020776physical media cost means absolutely nothing. You can buy a game digitally off any sony, steam or xbox storefront and its still $70
>>729020541Its not a lie. Hell, i own an older LCD tv with more input lag and I can still play rhythm games on it, its just something you get used to. I think the screen looks good, but it feels kinda blurry during movement. They obviously cheaped out here but I can't blame them since their users are largely retarded.
>>729020776Common cope here is "well it's higher priced because it's higher quality" which goes contrary to fanboys praising NSO for being cheaper than PSN. I love seeing them try to argue those things together.
>>729020015>almost nobody says [factually correct thing]sure, buddy
>>729020862You retard. We're talking about price over time. Also Switch cards cost the publisher around $15-$17 right now (for 64gb)
>>729020907its not factually correct, otherwise everybody would be returning their switches en masse, and thered be more public backlash than youtube grifters repeating the same lies as retards on /v/
>>729020776>You'd think nintendo would have learned its lesson from the N64 days, but here we go again.Nintendo can't exactly slap a disc drive on a handheld. I think they're kinda stuck with cartridges. Maybe the dock can house it next time?
>>728984318It's only successful in Japan where the console's price is being subsidized by price gouging Europe and American gamers.In Europe Switch 2 is as dead as Xbox, in the US only the hardcore drones are showing up.Parents and children are also more enamored with the NEX Playground and all those family waggle games used to be exclusive to Nintendo
>>728984318$67.63 stock price. I could buy Nintendo.>>728984402>there's no emulatorYes, idiot. A device that you guys say is overpriced to scam levels is affordable to them, but not this console.
>>729020867It says a lot more about tech guys unable to find the supposed flaws of the Switch 2's screen until it took random nobodies on the Internet to swap the narrative around for essentially outrage clicks
>>729018709>incredibly poor screenHow spoiled are you? It looks good to me
>>729020942>price over timeyou act like resellers and refurbished stock dont exist
>>729020995literally all you've done this entire reply chain is go "nuh uh"
>>729021172it's measurably worse than the switch 1 screen 8 years ago
>>729020995I think the Ps5 is hot garbage, and yet nobody is returning it en masse. Heck, I think the PS4 was trash too, so why did it sell 100 million consoles?
>>729021209its all I have to do. There is no public outcry against nintendo, and its supported by people buying it in record numbers along with game attachment rate. Its up to you to prove me wrong
>>728984318The way tendies gargle Nintendo's cum with their asshole is hilarious.
>>729001973>You can’t make those kinds of accusations without evidence. I ASSSHUUUUME that you have some?
>>729021267becausensonys will buy literally anything witha PS logo on it, and its cheaper/more convenient for retards then just getting a PCPS4 had more temporary exclusives, xbox shot itself in the foot, and the wiiu was too hard for literal retards too understand, and had poor library support
>>729021242I only played on it one time but it didn't look worse to me. I haven't heard many people complain either
>>729021039True, but I was more referring to Nintendo's stubbornness this gen but not only selling 64gb switch cards but making them prohibitivly expensive for some reason, which made the cost too high to even use for most games. Had they had smaller, cheaper cards for devs a launch this would have been a much smaller issue and less people would be complaining about game key cards as well.
>>729020489Are you retarded? Nintendo doesn't have deep sales so their prices raising matters more because everyone else drops their games to $20. You'll see third parties put their games 50% off after 3 months all the time these days. It doesn't matter what the starting price is if you're not a FOMO retard, but with Nintendo's games they don't go on sale in the same way so the starting price does matter a lot more than everywhere else.
>>729021132I mean I noticed it immediately. But i'm old as fuck and remember old laptop STN screens where everything had ghost trails in windows. And while the critics are right, a lot of it is amplified for clicks and controversy.
>>729021526>less people would be complaining about game key cards as well.Which is nothing more than a very vocal minority on the Internet as well
>>729021586>WAAAAAH I CANT BUY IT 50% OFF 3 MONTHS LATER70 bucks is the same as 70 bucks
>>729021469>switch and switch 2 good because they sell alot>selling alot is only good when nintendo does it, if the ps4 does it then it's le heckin bad >:(
>>729021203Oh ffs. The cope here is fucking 4 dimensional.
>>729021658where did I say the PS4 was bad?
>>729021526Fast flash memory is expensive, and it's hard to make fast flash memory small too. This is why cartridges are already way slower than the internal drive. Nintendo was able to get away with eMMC-tier dogshit last gen, but the storage bandwidth demands of current gen games are a lot more costly.
>>729021267Unironically just like the switch 2, once people realized there were no games they simply used it to play last gen games at better fidelity.
>>729021392>its all I have to do.lol ok keep fucking spamming your schizo theories like "everyone should return their switches NOW"
>>729021650Third world education at its finest.
>>729021668nowhere close to an argument
>>729021718>snoys will buy anything with the ps logo
>>729021620>The vocal minority memeOkay retard
>>729021734>once people realized there were no games they simply used it to play last gen games at better fidelitySwitch 2 isn't even very good at that, last gen games still run at 720p or worse in handheld.
I do not think the console is a failure, but I have zero desire to play anything on it. It's just collecting dust. I was genuinely excited for Mario Kart, which is why I bought the console, but it ended up being kind of terrible. Pretty fun to play, honestly, but Nintendo did everything in their power to force the awful transition tracks for GP that were just straightaways. I hear they finally went back on it, but in the sense that they remade the tracks rather than let people just play the tracks they want. Didn't finish Bananza. It felt like shallow dopamine overdosing. The stage exploding, the music track changing constantly as you switch bananza forms, and OOH BANANA every fifteen seconds or so was just too much for me. I think I was in the gross fast food theme park level, or maybe a little after that, and I was just bored out of my mind. I played ZA for like three hours. Was really disillusioned by there being no variety in the city and no ride pokemon. I just have no reason to play the console and I'm disappointed by it.
>>729019116>brings up browns>brings up sucking dicks>brings up redditRent free
>>729021732You're missing the point entirely. They ONLY released 64gb cards. Thats a huge fucking problem for everyone. And now that prices are skyrocketing, they're releasing smaller capacity cards. Too little too late imo.
>>729021791You never had one.
>>729021881>They ONLY released 64gb cards.Yeah, there's a technological reason for that.
>>728984318Bombing hard this holiday. Turns out it was only the diehards buying it due to its easy availability and the normalfags and casuals that comprise 95% of Nintendo's audience don't give a shit. What a shame, lmao
>>729019170>The only Wii U ports early on were Mario Kart and BoTWThose did most of the heavy lifting. The rest wasn't much better than the Switch 2 launch.
>>729007485They ported Ace Combat 7 on the Switch and it looked crazy good.I think it's just a matter of time.
>>729021802We had many download code-only releases on Switch 1, but suddenly a compromise for both the devs and consumers (with something you can still lend and resell) is bad because... you've simply been told to hate it ?And don't give me that shit about "having the data on physical" since you can't do anything about it unless your system is jailbroken (and in this case, it doesn't matter the game is physical or digital) or that the majority of modern games require at least one patch for the intended experience. You can also fearmonger about download servers shutting down despite there has been no precedent of such thing, especially with Nintendo.
>>729005289>next year is going to be even worse because of year late shittiest version of ports that nintendo cum guzzlers won't even buy, but will actively try to shitpost overIt sure will.
>>729021172>spoiledis this really the angle you want to takedon't make a handheld if you're going to use a screen so bad it's on par with a fucking pspyou can buy phones for half the price with an oled screen, nintendo with their much bigger economy of scale and being able to profit off software sales after selling you the console really has no excuse
>>729021801yes. Now where did I say the PS4 was bad
>>729021956Uh oh, retard alert!I guess nintendo solved the "technological reason" when they committed to selling smaller capacity cards in the near future.
>>729022101>We had many download code-only releases on Switch 1,Those fucking sucked too. GKCs are marginally better in principle but way more developers are choosing this instead of real physical this time.
>>729022161Sad state of affairs. They got ports of Pizza Tower, Hollow Knight and Anton Blast, but they hate every single one of them.otherwise they wouldn't lose their minds if someone said "I think Silksong is a better metroid than Dread or Prime 4". You say that, and boy do they lose it.
>>729021945>I WANT DISCOUNTS>NOOOOOO NOT LIKE THAT, I WANT OFFICIAL NINTENDO DISCOUNTS lol
>>728984402I grew up with nintendo and some of my favorite games are old nintendo titles. There is literally no reason to buy this piece of shit. I have a steam deck and a pc that's four times the price. The switch 2 just fucking sucks and nintendo is a soulless shitty husk of their former selves that doesn't even know how to make a good game anymore and is getting blown the fuck out now by random indies who come out of nowhere. It's been a long decline culminating into this dogshit.
>>729021748concession accepted>>729021779>$70 isnt $70 because I can wait to get it on sale laterthird world education at its finest
>>729022279> they wouldn't lose their minds if someone said "I think Silksong is a better metroid than Dread". You say that, and boy do they lose it.
>>729022101Yeah getting punched in the arm is better than getting punched in the face, but you're still getting punched. Download code only or half on the cart half on a download code shit was terrible, but that was still due to Nintendo's high cart prices or publisher greed. If you notice most of those nonsense capcom split releases had the entire set of games on a single card on international releases. And while a game key card is a better compromise than just a key in a box, its still absolute shit.
>>729005289>>PragmataNo one besides MAPs care about this kusoge
>>729017383Switch 2 has Bananza, MK World, Hyrule Warriors AoI and Kirby Air Riders
>>729022161You can keep crying about the Switch 2, but the reason why more and more of these Japanese third-parties keep being present on Nintendo is because they want their games to sell, especially in their home market. And surprise surprise, Switch is where their games sell the best in the long run.
>>729022357You're so brown that you can't think more than 5 minutes into the future, it's no wonder that you can't figure out that a game that's still $70 after a year is different from a game that's $20 after a year. I'm guessing you took so long to reply because you got stymied by the captcha, at least you managed to brute force it finally!
>>729022283>I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW PRICING WORKS>THERES NO WAY A HIGHER RETAIL COST HAS ANY EFFECT ON USED GAME PRICESLiteral retard.
>>729022369>YOU CAN'T LIKE THOSE GAMES, YOU SNOY!Point proven.
>>729022406lolLMAO even
>>729022465Then why don't you guys buy good games when they get ported? Where are the 150 million sales for Hollow Knight and Silksong?
>>729022480>nintendo is the worst for charging a premium for their games!!!>its the same as everyone else>YAH BUT I CAN BUY IT LATER CHEAPERthe only one beiing dishonest is you
>>729022232Yeah. Smaller carts using this tech didn’t exist before
>>729022465>but the reason why more and more of these Japanese third-parties keep being present on NintendoA tiny fraction of what you get on pc these days and nintendo is banning and censoring them.>inb4 but steam-Steam is not pc and steam still accepts far more japanese games than nintendo ever will.>And surprise surprise, Switch is where their games sell the best in the long run.No, not even close, lolAnd if you care about japanese games, nintendo is not where you go for them. If you do, you just care about nintendo, not those games
>>729022621You would have to name good games first.
>>729022516>>THERES NO WAY A HIGHER RETAIL COST HAS ANY EFFECT ON USED GAME PRICEScorrect. A digital steam/PS/Xbox key is still 70 dollars, despite being a code
>>729022638>buy console 5 years after release>most of the games are $20>buy switch 2>all the switch 1 games are $50-$60>no first party games are a part of the current christmas sale
>>729022332>grew up with nintendo and some of my favorite games are old nintendo titlesWhy do you people think this somehow makes your opinion valid? You know it doesn't right? Especially when you aren't even saying anything bad about it.
>>729022621Jesus Christ, you are so retarded. Where are 80 million Silksong sales on PS5?
>>729022621>Where are the 150 million sales for Hollow Knight and SilksongMostly on switch and pc.
>>72902278150 to 60 dollars huh?
>>729022789Sony is trash, so of course snoys don't care. However, it's already sold millions on the PC, which is strange because you guys claimed that PC vegans hate games and just pirate everything.Hmmmmmm.......
>>729017383Notice how for the other consoles you included games "within a year" and with the Switch you remove every game that isn't Bananza. >but those aren't goodMost games you mentioned for other consoles weren't that good either. Including Nintendo Land but not Air Riders is disingenuous.
I don't care if it fails or succeeds but personally I don't have one because it doesn't have any games yet
>>729022621I wasn't aware that every Switch player was mandated to play a specific gameYou know what? I hereby that PC players should be executed on spot unless they play an EDF game.
>>729022845But you nintendo fans said you hate those games.see>>729022692
>>729022853A game that was also on Wii U and 3DS is a bit of a stretch but that's an exception, not the rule.
>>729022929I don't see what your other post has to do with Nintendo fans.
>>729022953>that doesnt count!kekaroo
>>729022857>schizo babbleTake your meds
>>729023005>gamecube portyou're really reaching here
>>729023005That's the MSRP for that Gamecube port. Games like Xenoblade, BotW, and Odyssey are all full price. The games that people want to buy, not fucking Toad.
>>729022929ACtard, why aren’t you playing games you try to use as ammo to shit on Nintendo?
>>729022689The fuck are you talking about?
>>729023079>>729023081DOESNT COUNT COUNT COUNT STOP IT AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>729022924>>729022994>>729023101It's strange that you guys claim to like games, but hate anything that isn't exclusive to nintendo. Quite curious indeed.
>>729023123Posting games not going below their MSRP only shows how Nintendo raising their MSRP is bad. You're proving the point when those old games are still full price.
>by proving me wrong, your proving that nintendoraising their MSRP is badlol
>>729023005>Cigarettes cause cancer>Guy smokes entire life and doesn't get itCIGARETTES ARE HECKIN SAFE BRO, SMOKE UP
>>729023319>cigarette analogylol
>>729023157Yeah it's very strange, it's almost as if you made it up because third party games and indies tend sell more on switch.
>>729023290>guys nintendo released a gamecube game and 3ds game for $40!>that's so generous they didn't charge $60 like link's awakening!!(currently $60)
>>729023157It's almost as strange as you not knowing what a Melander is.
>>729023429>no those games dont count!!!!kekaroo
>>729023382>they sell more>but don't you dare imply that they're better than what nintendo offers, or else you're a snoyVery interesting....>>729023448>talks about a game that doesn't even have a switch version, and is hated by every nintendo fan on the sitelol
>>729023525>3 games no one cares about>still msrp>only proved the point about nintendo games never going on saleBrownest user of the year award.
>Newest console sold more than any other console on launch year>people waste everyday coping it's a major flop because of hate biasWhat causes this mental illness?
>>729023625>NO THOSE GAMES DONT COUNT its funny every time
>>729023659The Ps2 outsold the gamecube and Xbox, and yet Nintendo fans despise it and call it trash. "it's a cheap dvd player with no games" as they would say.
>>729023725>makes up rules>see i wonManchild alert.
>>729023782>makes up rulesposting nintendo games is making up rules?
>>729023756Anon the console itsely can be trash despite the library being amazing. PS1-PS2 are honestly perfect examples of this.
>>729023863But Nintendo fans despise the PS2 library. "it's nothing but GTA and call of Duty" they would say. Can't bring up Ratchet and Clank or Sly Cooper or DMC without being called a snoytranny.
>>729023824You moved the goalpost an astounding amount, turning it about price points instead of games not going on sale because you got autistically fixated on the $70 price point to argue disingenuously. You changed the argument and pretended you won.
>>729023725You are technically right but it's a "well AKSHUALLY" that ignores the point.
>>729021819>gross fast food theme park levelthats near the end of the gameyou trucked through a very sizable portion
>>729023756>yet Nintendo fans despise it and call it trash.No one ever said that and nintendo fans aren't pretending to call the PS2 a flop either
>>729022786You don't even know what an opinion means, you just get upset when they're different from yours.
the one Switch 2 Edition is would buy is Metroid Dread if it came with a newly composed soundtrack and maybe some optional bosses and map pathways
I don't know how we keep having threads like this day in and day out and the comments are just everyone being mad at each other for having conflicting opinions.Or just straight up lying of course.
>>729016101The Eric shitposting is even funnier when you remember "Eric" got outed as a Nintendo fan who's been false flagging as a Sony fan for literally over a decade at this point.
>>729023554>>but don't you dare imply that they're better than what nintendo offers, or else you're a snoySo you're saying that those games can only be shit then? That's a strange way to see it.
>>729023993I did nothing of the sort.He called out nintendo for having overpriced games, while $70 is literally industry standard>but they dont go on sale 3 months later, so its not REALLY the same!until it goes on sale, nintendo and sony/steam/xbox games are both 70 dollars>BUT NINTENDO DOESNT PUT THERE GAMES ON DISCOUNT, THEYRE ALL 50-60 DOLALRS>these ones arent>NO STOP THOSE DONT COUNT THEYRE NOT THE ONES I WANT WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH
>>729024035>no one ever said that
>>729022883i only included sunshine and 3d world within a yeartake them out if you want, the point is the same
>>729023983That's really just what playstation became later on, especially moving into the HD era where a lot of companies stopped taking risks.
>>729024131Alot of Nintendo games are shit, yeah. Indies and multiplats have been keeping this industry afloat for years.
>>729023625>only proved the point about nintendo games never going on saleYou're still pushing that narrative? I bought MP1 HD and Links Awakening when they were on sale for $30 or does that not count because it's not less than $5?
>>729024113The point is basically to convince passing users that all Nintendo fans are bad hence these posts. >>729022929>>729023157>>729023554
>>729022212>>729021242>makes shit upJust as I thought. https://m.youtube.com/shorts/fSWEHGdjAVU
>>728984318It's funny because every single criticism against it applies to the PS5 too but no one ever says it's a failure.>No gamesPS5 is 2 years old and still has no games (except Astrobot).>GamecardsMost PS5 games need day 1 DLC to start now.>PriceThe disc version of the PS5 is just as expensive.
>>729024243Yeah, later on, but that shouldn't condemn the ps2 and ps1 because of the sins of later consoles.>>729024289The famitsu threads definitely aren't helping.
>>729024143>>BUT NINTENDO DOESNT PUT THERE GAMES ON DISCOUNT, Correct, that's the point that you enforced. Cherrypicking a few ports of older games that are exceptions doesn't invalidate the point. Those third party games will go on sale, Sonic Cross Worlds racing is currently $45 on Amazon. That game released this September. Mario Kart 8 is still $50.
>>729024202The point will be the same if I take out as many as I want like you did with the Switch 2
>>729021853cry little timmy
>classic ps2 game>$10>random first party gamecube kusoge>$300
>>729024373I took out dozens of titles for the other consoles too, dumbass
Holy crackers Nintensisters, you really aren't taking the Shitch 2's holiday underperformance well kekI still remembered the Wii's holiday season. Now THAT was a launch.
>>729024274$10 off on MP1 is nothing. The LA Remake is an actual discount but it's a remake of a Game Boy game. You're paying Game Boy MSRP price still.
>>729024313>PS5 is 2 years old5 anon
>>728984318Nintendo wonTrump wonMilei wonKast wonIt's over for snoys/wokecels.
>>729024353>The famitsu threads definitely aren't helping.Of course they are, because it's all the same constant seething anger towards Nintendo each week it's showing new users that it's just a bunch of children pushing the narrative that Nintendo fans are bad.
>>729024353>The famitsu threads definitely aren't helping.Which is funny because those wouldn't have existed if the Media Creates threads never popped up to begin with.It's just a multigenerational circlejerk when you a think about it.
>>729024423Yeah, literal shovelware
im sorry confused on what to buy. the launch lineup is fucking trash. is the zelda musou good?
>>729024520exactly. I'm not going to include fucking welcome tour and drag n drive for the switch 2 no matter how much you wanna complain. I only included things that matter
>>729024437>IT DOESN'T COUNTAnd there it is
>>729024441It's all so tiring.
>>729024441Time for the PS6. Its biggest innovation: having more than one game
>>729024578>picks terrible examples>gets torn apart>has no argumentSad!
>>729024557The first Zelda Musou is the only one worth playing
>>729024353Famitsu threads only became a thing because Snoys made daily VGchartz threads for years. You made your bed now lie in it.
>>729024575>Air Ride is shovelware
>>729024653hint: you are as insufferable now as they were back then
>>729024653>>729024490>>729024480So you make everyone suffer because of the snoys? That makes you no better than they are.
>>728986443I only bought a Switch late 2023 because it finally had enough games I was interested in. Splatoon 3 was the tipping point and it's still my favourite game on the system.
>>729022786>Why do you people adding context to your opinions make me shit my pants? You know it just makes a mess right? Now my mother is going to have to clean it up.
copium overdose but i think Smash might be this time next year. BAMCO has one of their Nintendo studios that have been working on a '2D action title' for years now its the major Nintendo release with the longest release gap. Well that and a 3D Mario but you can be cheeky and pretend 2021s 3D World rerelease filled the void
>>729024714Truth sucks, I know.
>>729011461I don't want to play them. Do I need to list the reasons why? Nintendo should focus on making more appealing games that don't look awful to play.
>>729024712everything sakurai makes is shovelware
>>729024415This is because gamecube sold way less games so theres less copies floating around but within even that, shitty games had lower print runs. And retard collectors will buy anything if its "rare"
>>729024745What do you mean "I make everyone suffer", I'm a passerby watching you faggots repeat the same nonsense every day.
>>729024745You can, you know, not enter those threads? Just filter them. But the fact that you go into them to argue, and are now still letting it live rent free in your head seething, it's just silly.
>>729024818Damn copium levels are off the charts
>>729024815nintendo really should be making some games. it's super fucking weird that they didn't bother making a zelda game, a smash game, a mario game, an animal crossing, etc basically none of their big tentpole games for their brand new console. make some fucking games nintendo jeez
>>729024745>So you make everyone suffer because of the snoysEveryone? No.You? No.Anyone? No.Famitsu threads nowadays aren't inherently console warring threads. They're just threads where people discuss current events in gaming. You just don't notice that because Nintendo selling well sends you into a depressive spiral that you clearly can't get out of.
>>729024623I'm not going to waste my time browsing through dekudeals to put better examples because you're just going to say none of them count anyways
>>729024925You don't drop all the big titles at the beginning, you push one per year to keep the console fresh all its lifetime
>Animal Crossing Switch 2 Edition in 3 weeksso there's a new game that's off the table for a while
>>729024856Snoys would declare their garbage to be better than everyone else, all because muh sales. Guess who's also guilty of that?>>729024881You never keep it in those threads though. You brag about sales anywhere you can, including this thread funny enough.>>729024929So if I go into a famitsu thread, I won't see console war shitposting and Nintendo fans obsessing over e-celebs like nintendeen and arlo? Because they certainly don't seem related to sales.
>>729016586kys schizosnoy
>>729025019I get the feeling they thought it was going to be ok to not make any games and just release switch 2 editions of everything, because they did that with the wiiubig mistake imo, they should have bothered to make some new games
>>729025001>You don't drop all the big titles at the beginningMeanwhile the Gamecube was absolutely spammed by top tier games within the first year of release. I wonder if the rumours about Nintendo not giving anyone devkits for the Switch 2 are true.
>>729024929>Famitsu threads nowadays aren't inherently console warring threads.NTA but at this point they kind of are with how they get presented, especially when the OP pic isof Kirby with the 3 other platforms beind dead around him and all the bot comments that fall into the thread within seconds of it being made.>>729025031>Snoys would declare their garbage to be better than everyone else, all because muh sales. Guess who's also guilty of that?Pretty sure you have been falling for falseflagging since day one.
>>729016792Maybe because some of them don't deepthroat Nintendo or its financials and just used to like the games they made before they went full soulless asshole mode.Also, its stock is in free fall, so what you're saying isn't even true to begin with.
>>729025119not rumors, by the release schedule you can see first hand. even microsoft got passed up initiallyits cool that super giant and team cherry were some of the few to devkits at least?
>>729024925I've been saying this for years.
>>729025205It's pretty bad when the devs of some $20 multiplatform Super Metroid clone are at the top of the priority list.
>>729001280>>729001560> Switch 2 went past the 12 mil mark after 6 monthsWhere are you getting this? The only thing we heard was 10 mil sell-in, not even sell-through. The US and Japan combined are only like 7 mil by last estimates and the rest of the world doesn't give nearly as much of a shit.
>a failure I wish it wasBeen a tendie since before I can clearly remember, but switch 1 will be my last system unless they ease up on nso dependency
>>729024929>Famitsu threads nowadays aren't inherently console warring threads.You're kidding, right? Fanboy wars is the only thing that can follow from salesfagging.
>>729024925They released a mainline zelda 2 years ago. As for the others, you can only milk them so much. New Horizons wasn't even as good as the 3ds one. I've heard that the Odyssey team has split and they're still working on 3d mario
>>728993115Looking very, very similar to Switch 2's current lineup desu or even the past 5 years or soJournos might be sucking dick a little harder, but not even they can suck as hard as Nintendo's current offerings.
>>729024986Look, right now Nintendo has none of their games up for the holiday sale going on. This isn't even up for discussion, Nintendo has the worst deals. Their games go on sale less often and the discounts aren't as big, that's an objective fact. It makes their $70 games more bullshit than $70 games elsewhere that will drop in price quicker and for deeper discounts.If you want to pretend this a good thing, the only way to do that is to act like games retaining their value is good because someone that bought FF16 at launch has to compete against new copies going for $20 so their $70 copy is now a $15 or $10 one if they want to resell it years later. Meanwhile, Switch 1 games have retained their value better. Xenoblade 2's lowest physical price is $35 despite being a $60 game and it's much older than FF16.All hyperbole in either direction aside, Nintendo's $70 games will hurt your wallet more unless you buy everything day 1.
>>728986443DQ 12
>2 games>470 replieslmao
>>729025480>They released a mainline zelda 2 years ago.yeah and it barely qualifies as a DLC
Where is the sales discussion in famitsu threads?
The Switch 2 Mario Kart World bundle is ending production soon, maybe they got another big release to swap it out with
>>729025480majoras mask came out 2 years after oot and it felt way more fresh than totk which took 6 years
>>729025519>All hyperbole in either direction aside, Nintendo's $70 games will hurt your wallet more unless you buy everything day 1.Tendies actually do this, is the thing.
>>729025135>NTA but at this point they kind of are with how they get presentedlol. Sony had to beg Japanese to buy their console. It's not far from the truth that Xbox is dead in general and that Sony's dead in Japan. That's what famitsu threads are about, Japanese sales.
Let the fucking console have themes at the very least. It's a smaller thing that goes a long wayApparently the Switch app has unique themes available but not the Switch 2 itself
>>729025519>Nintendo's $70 games will hurt your walletWhy? I can pirate everything on PC and if I think a game is good I buy it on Switch 2. At the end of the day it's either dumb console warrior retards who poorfags complaining about prices all the time. If anyone got an actual job then gaming is really cheap at the end of the day
>>729024767You're not really adding context, you're just making yourself look extremely untrustworthy.>>729025135>they kind of are with how they get presented, especially when the OP pic isof Kirby with the 3 other platforms beind dead around him and all the bot comments that fall into the thread within seconds of it being made.Not at all. In fact they serve to prove the point because the first Famitsu thread of the week never has that, it's always the following ones and the following threads are never made by the op of the original.In fact they're made explicitly to get the threads banned for console warring which did work at one point, they were banned here and moved to /biz/ until the /biz/ mod put the /v/ mod allowing the anti-Nintendo shitposting to run rampant in his place returning the threads to here.You don't seem to understand how irrationally angry these people get just because Nintendo is doing well.
>>729025556>>729025616Not a botw/totk fan but what you're describing is a consequence of making bloated games with wacky physics engines. It's not because they "couldn't be bothered"
>>729025686Then why do you obsess over e-celebs? How does Nintendeed factor into sales discussion?
>>729025403So why don't we see that when the usual suspects aren't there?If the macaco, Acfag and Eric aren't present the threads are fine.
>>729025848>You're not really adding context, you're just making yourself look extremely untrustworthy.you're just making yourself look like a schizo actually
>>729025848Show me even one single famitsu thread where there isn't any shitposting whatsoever.
>>729025924>When the thread is a nintendo circlejerk, it's fine.
>>729025848Seek help
>>729025894I block grifters, never watch any of those videos
>>729026158And yet you guys bring him up in famitsu discussions.
>>729025924Your bogeymen are always here because everyone is your bogeymen. There could be 100 people arguing with you and they would all be eric.
>>729025805Right now the current meta for a lot of gamers is to work on your backlog then grab games when they're 50% off 3 months after release because a lot of them are stuck on a live service treadmill anyway(or playing gachas). That's where a lot of the animosity towards Nintendo's practices comes from. Even Sony and Microsoft put their first party exclusives on sale for cheap, Even Death Stranding 2 has been on sale for $50 for months now, the $70 MSRP barely matters for anyone except day 1 buyers. Actual day 1 buyers are getting fucked in the ass when Death Stranding 2 charged extra for 3 day early access and charging $30 for 3 days of early access is Microsoft's norm right now. At the very least Nintendo isn't charging $100 like Microsoft but Black Ops 7 are already $35 and that came out last month and you'll never see Nintendo doing a 50% sale a month after release.
>>729026158>Not ignoring all streamfagsngmi
>>729026268>the current meta for a lot of gamers is to-LOLWHAT THE FUCK IS THIS POST
>>729025997Sure just pick a thread that doesn't hit 500 posts and falls off.Famitsu threads aren't that active when the usual suspects aren't around.
>>729026224They don't, someone will go in, say "he won" and then start posting images with him until they finally get a response.It's the shittiest bait in existance but it works.
>>729026046Oh so you're just autistic, that's why you need that additional validation.
>>729026307Autism, enjoy some actual insight.
>>729026324I just checked the most recent thread, and it has people obsessing with Nintendeen and calling people trannies. Is that your idea of good discussion?
>>729026268So basically you're saying that discounts are damaging the perception of games.
>>729026448His idea of good discussion is the sound of Nintendo being deepthroated while they fart in Sony's general direction.
>>728984318It is a "failure" in the sense that it could have had an even stronger launch period if Nintendo had priced it more aggressively. I doubt they care too much since it is on pace to beat the Wii U's lifetime sales in a single year. The actual sign of failure will be Nintendo dropping it's next sales forecast or dropping the MSRP.
>>729026448It has one guy who mentioned nintendeen who's defending him, Eric calling tendies mentally "I'll", and surprisingly no mention of trannies so I don't know where you're seeing that. https://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/728947780/#728947780 It's also one of the threads made by the usual suspects, you can tell by the fact that they're using a switch 2 flag.
>>729026436The person looking for patterns where they don't exist and there's no hint that they exist is now the one calling others autistic? Get a grip.
>>729026463More or less, all these games are competing for players time and they discount themselves in order to stand out when the market is full of competition with almost everything being multiplat now. Indie games are contributing to damaging gamers perception too, Silksong being $20 and even E33 being $50 are good examples of lower pricing harming the perception of more expensive games. The reality is that most of these modern AAA games are worse than $10 games from 10 years ago(and are barely different because the industry has stagnated so much). On top of that, the market has also been flooded with f2p games that aren't as low quality as they used to be so gamers have become ridiculously price sensitive.
>>729026746>not one post actually discussing salesInteresting,.....
>>729026781No, I'm calling my post autistic. Idiot.
>>729025997They're rare but they happenThat said if you see thishttps://arch.b4k.dev/v/search/image/S0c5VcXrdNzqXswTGJh7xA/Or any of the other bot posts it's an anti-Nintendo Famitsu thread.
>>729026324Famitsu threads are literally nothing but rabid fanboy shitposters. They are flagrant consolewarring generals and I have no clue why jannies allow them beyond attempting to quarantine that autism.
>>729026596I don't think the pricing is unreasonable, I think they cranked the jewometer to 11 on switch 2 though between nso and amiibo shit
>>729026931>they happen, but I can't link you to them so you're just gonna have to trust me on this oneerrmm, no.
>>729026851It's almost as if it's not made by people posting with the intent to do so.
>>728993014I wouldn't know who this dude was if tendies weren't screeching about him 24/7. Pretty fun watching him dismantle their typical talking points, it's easy to tell why he pisses them off so much, he doesn't just rely on the feelings and emotions of "Nintendo bad", he gets into the nitty gritty of their autism and pulls it apart.
>>729026967>They are flagrant consolewarring generals and I have no clue why jannies allow them beyond attempting to quarantine that autism.Because generally they aren't console warring threads. We just have a literal cult who's offended by Nintendo selling well trying to take them down.It's the same tactic they used with the smash spam when they were constantly spamming about "mystery niggas" but of course that didn't work because everyone could see through it.
>>729027024Nobody in those threads intends to discuss sales. It's just shitposting central.
>>728993315>hurrhurr you ignored the non exclusivesmy point was that the ps2 HAD 700 something exclusiveswhy would i play games that are on pc on a fucking switch 2 youre retarded and should kill yourself you onions retarded backwards mouthbreathing cousing fucking cow
>>729027137>Because generally they aren't console warring threadsBullfuckingshit, only a massive Nintendo fanboy could possibly believe that
>>729027127He says as he replies to the only anon who ever brings him up.
>>729027220Meanwhile in reality the only console warring that happens in those threads are against Nintendo.Funny how that works isn't it.
>>729027249Unless that same anon is also constantly crying over his existence, I doubt that.
>>729027220So where's the console warring in Famitsu threads then? Why are you seeing it while everyone else can't?
>>729027325
>>729027339Most likely yes. It's called false flagging, it happens a lot to trick the simple minded like yourself.
>>729027442Then prove me wrong, find something that isn't anti-Nintendo but also console warring.And no, saying Sony is losing Japan isn't console warring, that's a fact.
>>729027402Try this repeated a thousand times over.>b-but it's a falseflagYou have to go out of your way to condemn it as a falseflag, every single time it comes up, and the entire thread must condemn it as well. You have never done that, so you cannot claim that you ever condemn these falseflaggers.
>>729027462Except you're getting upset, so nah, his existence makes you shit yourself and that entertains me.
>>729027536Who the fuck are you trying to fool? Even the OP is right out in the open flagrant consolewarring most of the time.
>>729027583>Try this repeated a thousand times overSo your example just so happens to be someone who hates Nintendo?You can tell because of three things in that list Barry and Darren being mentioned and the steam deck since Barry has nothing to do with Nintendo, he hates modern final fantasy, and Darren doesn't exist. As for the Deck Nintendo fans never had a problem with that.
>>729027249It's funny that they keep bringing up this dumb retard here and then claim he lives in our heads rent free
>>729027718>Even the OP is right out in the open flagrant consolewarring most of the time.What, the rising sun flag? Hardly console warring to have a country's old flag.Or are you referring to the anti-Nintendo threads made after the first one to get them banned?
Switch 2 fans be like: But you can play Switch 1 gfames on it that justifies the new console! It doesnt need exclusives! Why play PC games when you can play them on a tiny 7 inch screen on your couch for 1 hour 30 at 20fps?Man I miss the PS2.
>>729027757>As for the Deck Nintendo fans never had a problem with that.Nintendo fans attacked the Deck straight out of the gate and tried to get it kicked to /g/.
>>729027915Yep, that's why every deck thread had to start with an attack on Nintendo and the posters would get offended when you said it hurt sony more than Nintendo.Starting to see a pattern or are you too angry?
>>729027972>Yep, that's why every deck thread had to start with an attack on NintendoYou people don't even try to be honest or live in reality.
>>729025031>You brag about sales anywhere you can, including this thread funny enough.Then don't go into this thread? It's clearly a Switch 2 sales thread. Just filter it?
>>728984318it currently is a failure though.>MKWmk8 but worse in every metric.>DK BananzaOnly thing it does right is loli pauline and king k rool returning. Its idiocracy the game. >PZAPLA sharts on it. Cash grab game.>Prime 4Ermmm there is a metroid RIGHT behind me...isn't there?>KARsOnly half baked game you manchildren have under your belt. Let us know when the next 3d mario and smash 6 comes out. Until then, total and utter flop across the board.
>>729027915Ha!It's funny that you're still trying to push this shit like there aren't 500 other handheld pcs no one cares about. If it was like you said it was they would be attacking as many as possible but instead it was only the one.
>>729027972Nintendo Persecution Complex is so nuts.
>>729028124The problem with that is that if he filters the Famitsu threads he can't see the sales numbers to spam threads because he doesn't know where to get them from.
>>729028175Says the one claiming factual data is console warring.
>>729028175Nigga, it's not persecution if your threats come off as a joke.
>>729028157>no one cares aboutThere you go.Unlike the deck, which they feel incredibly threatened by and know it's a far better system. Hence why they were just recently trying to gloat over the LCD's production ending.
>>729028309I'm not him, I'm just chiming in at how weird it is to lie about Deck threads being about attacking Nintendo.
