Whats the point of these
>>729388354>>729388403>metroid prime 4 flopped
>>729388354>Switch 2 – 221.033 (3.583.810)>Switch – 38.184 (36.383.368)>PlayStation 5 – 19.307 (7.278.978)Yamauchi is looking down at us with a smile on his face. Rest easy, goat.
>>729388354I find it deeply offensive that people are still buying the Switch in Japan when for $100 more they get the Switch 2, an unequivocally better version and also cheaper than the rest of the world.
>>729388650already sold over 1m btw
Are there any notable games even coming out for PS in the coming months? Anything that might at least get it above the Switch 1 for like a week or two.
>>729390584Code Vein 2 this January 29
>>729390835GOOD GAMES.
>>729390584>Are there any notable games even coming out for PS in the coming months?Nowt
>Switch 2 – 221.033 (3.583.810)>Switch – 38.184 (36.383.368)>PlayStation 5 – 19.307 (7.278.978)>30/30
I don't want to wait for February for a direct please give me an indie direct or a third party one to wait.
The 30/30s could possibly keep rolling for the next few weeks, there are like literally zero PS5 releases until the end of January. Though perhaps not since the next numbers will be a two week combined period on January 7th.
No ritual posts or avatarfags posting Mexican cosplay sluts? This isn't my famitsu thread....
>>729388650>the best selling prime game to date>"it flopped!!"(You)
>>729391326Didn't it have the best LAUNCH to date, while Prime 1 on the GC is still the highest selling overall at over 2 million?
>>729388354HOHOHO
>>729391403Yeah it had the best launch. Time will tell if it'll be the best selling overall. But having the best launch doesn't exactly correlate against it even though it could easily go in either direction.
>>729390584Nioh 3 i guess but im not even sure if that would be enough
>>729391590We'll see if word of mouth turns it into Nintendo's Monster Hunter Wilds or not.
>>729391687It's not gonna be that either way, MP4 even if it performed like shit would not be tarnishing the legacy of one of the most successful franchises in gaming histroy like Wilds did. Metroid has always had middling success for how much people gush about it online.
>>729388790Why was he so right?
>>729391204I think it will last until RE Requiem is released, I don’t see Code Vein 2 sneaking into the top
>>729392014Hardware race is even more stupid now because AI being a massive resource blackhole.
1 month to go Yamauchi bros
>>729392069>I don’t see Code Vein 2 sneaking into the topI think people are underestimating Code Vein. The first game wasn't some massive game or success or anything. But it had a strong presentation, and the things that kept it from really making it weren't things that couldn't be easily addressed. If Code Vein 2 keeps the strong presentation, which it appears to do, and just manages to be a half decent improvement on most things else, then I really think it could do way better than the first game.
>>729388962harder to find a switch 2 in Japan, they sell out pretty much instantly
>>729392321>Code Vein 2 Going to flop in Japan because it's not on Switch/Switch 2. It'll do sub 30k and that'll be it for that game.
>>729388354>Switch 2 – 221.033 (3.583.810)>PlayStation 5 – 19.307 (7.278.978)How close will the life to date numbers at the end of 2026?
>>729392553>because it's not on Switch/Switch 2Wait what it's not? I thought it was. LollmaoWhy even?
>>729392618Anytime you want to know why a bamco game isn't on Switch or got a late port, its Harada's fault
>>729392014software has always driven hardware adoption. Nintendo learned this the hard way and now that they can only support 1 system (instead of a handheld and a home console), they aren't as prone to the long droughts that can kill a system. Sony can get away with it in western markets since most casual fans are only playing the next CoD, FIFA, or Madden
>>729392618Bamco was caught off guard with Switch being a success 6 years ago, and who could have thunk Switch 2 would be a roaring success either?!
>>729392618Yup, it's not on Switch lmfao. But that's Bamco for ya, they seem allergic to day one releases unless Nintendo is front-loading the costs
>>729388962It’s not cheaper.
>>729392557>Recent Pokemon leak confirmed Gen 10 is coming out next year exclusively to Switch 2I'd be surprised if it hasn't beaten the PS5 by december. The melty when it happens will be nuclear.
>>729390584>Anything that might at least get it above the Switch 1 for like a week or twoI don't think so. NS1 simply has too many games the Japanese want and by now they can also see what games NS2 is getting, basically the product they'd get next. Either that or NS3 if they wait long enough.
>>729392713PREASE BUY PS5!!! PREASE!!!
>>729392618>Bamco>Switch releaseLmao, Hero academia also don't have switch version.
>>729392882These fuckers didnt learn with Demon Slayer at all after all uh?
>>729392827You don't even need leaks to intuit Gen 10 is coming next year since it's the 30th anniversary.
>>729392794they should've followed Koei Tecmo's lead and partnered with Nintendo
>>729392858>Instead of accepting the Switch 2 was a success, he decided to leave the industry altogether when Bamco had enough of himBeing a pro Sony Japanese dev is a hell of a drug.
>>729392943Kimetsu is Aniplex dumbo.
>>729388962>I find it deeply offensive that people are still buying the Switch in Japan when for $100 more they get the Switch 2, an unequivocally better version and also cheaper than the rest of the world.Sentences like these are a good way to tell how dumb someone is.That's not how things work, nigga. The Japanese don't earn salaries in dollars and their salaries certainly didn't go up when the yen massively tanked.
>>729392943That was Sega and Aniplex tbf but Namco has had 6+years of games flopping left and right so they have learned by now that no Switch = flop
>>729392727>Sony can get away with it in western markets since most casual fans are only playing the next CoD, FIFA, or MaddenIt only worked until now, we'll see how Playstation does when everything is on Nintendo.
>>729392557by this time next year, it will overtake the PS5
>>729391796The gameplay loop of navigating through a giant maze and using new items to recontextualize old areas was never going to become mainstream.
>>729392882>Make a game based on a manga thats popular with kids and teens>Puts the game on a console that kids don't even know fucking exists, but not on the system selling 100k+ every week.The self harm is getting ridicolous at this point.
>>729388354>7. [NS2] Donkey Kong Bananza – 16,165 / 419,948
Is the Kimetsu game any good? I thought it was the classic arena fighter slop but I’m surprised it’s doing so well, those are some legs
>>729393031Damn sorry, when I see licensed shonen games I automatically tie it with Bamco
>>729392943It’s funny because the sequel on Switch is in the top 30, but the PS5 version is nowhere to be seen>18. [NSW] Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Hinokami Chronicles 2 (Aniplex, 08/01/25) – 7,387 (166,272)
>>729393407I'm going through the Bananza postgame now. It's a lot harder than the main story, which was incredibly easy.
>>729392557really depends whether they are still supply constrained or not. 50K a week after christmas is going to take a long time.
lmao Sonic fags are on full damage control mode with the news that MKW is selling well
Bless'd Yamauchi-posting.>>729394145Odyssey had more post-game content and overall challenge than Dong but I still prefer Bananza. Ludokino.
>>729391226>avatarfags posting Mexican cosplay slutsI still don't get why he does that
>>729394943Sonic fags are in a spiral of delusion ever since Sonic Mania came outThey actually believe Sonic is doing better than Mario and that Sonic is in his come back eraThe counter restarts every time a shitty Sonic game comes out
>>729394943>newsThere's nothing really even new about this, we've known for some time.
>>729394959Same, I thought Bananza's main story was better than Odyssey's but the post-game could have been a bit better.Emerald Rush also has more going on than Balloon World.
With the RAM situation being a complete shitshow I bet the next generation of consoles is getting pushed back much further than anticipated. Gives Nintendo more of an opportunity to establish a foothold for Switch 2 if so.
>>729395248I have to ask, what is left for Sonic to do?Sonic already went open-world.
>>729388354>1. [NS2] Mario Kart World – 115,729 / 2,573,736>4. [NS2] Kirby Air Riders – 49,220 / 377,044Kirby Sisters what happened?
>>729395482SEGA Smash or Sonic RPG
>>729395482>what is left for Sonic to do?Well, what is left for SEGA to do is figure out what Sonic actually is. Sonic isn't a kart racing IP, that's for sure. Is Sonic's lane 2D or 3D? What kind of 2D or 3D? Is Sonic meant to be 1st or 2nd to Mario? Those are all things that they need to figure. Without them, Sonic will always underdeliver.
>>729395482He returns.
>>729395575I meant for mainline Sonic.The same goes for mainline Zelda.
>tanabe lost so hard he is now trying to throw Bandai Singapore under the bus (which Nintendo now own)I look forward to his promotion to a janitor's closet away from actual game development.
>>729395482>what is left for Sonic to do?Good games
>>729395575>Sonic RPGAlready happened
>>729395709Zelda will finally become the dating RPG OoT was meant to be.
>>729395575>SEGA SmashOh hell naw and then you'd have the cucks trying to gaslight everybody that Sega outdid Nintendo and Sakurai
>>729395836I've seen some people claiming the next Zelda is gonna be an actual OoT remake, you could be on to something anon
>>729394145Emerald Rush or the Bananza challenge? If the latter, for sure. That Bananza challenge kicked my ass.>>729394959>>729395316I assume Emerald Rush was created to compensate for the lack of a post game. Then Nintendo saw its potential and made it its own mode with live service elements. Fine by me, it made one of my favorite games this year and a personal top 10 worth checking out every so often.
>>729395323Sony ram deal expires in march btw.
>>729395809How bad was this one again?
Here's something that went under the radar.https://texasattorneygeneral.gov/news/releases/attorney-general-paxton-sues-five-major-tv-companies-including-some-ties-ccp-spying-texans
>Nintendo 30/30>Switch 2 – 221.033 (3.583.810)>Switch – 38.184 (36.383.368)>PlayStation 5 – 19.307 (7.278.978)
>>729395981It's unironically okay when Sony does it.
>>729395981Sony is fucking evil.
>>729395885>you’d have the cucks trying to gaslight everybody that Sega outdid Nintendo and SakuraiNot SEGA but already happened with Multiversus… twice
>>729395323You don't need RAM to make compelling games. Why hasn't Playstation tried doing that?
>>729395709>mainline ZeldaThey got the open world part right but went too hard on it. They still have to refine the balance between open world Zelda and the classic dungeon experience Zelda is known for.
>>729396243>MultiversusHoly fuck I forgot about this game LMFAO. That was quite the arc lol
>>729395981It's okay when snoy does it.
>>729396324Because without graphics their brand holds no value.
>>729395969bad gameplaybad musicbad plotand it was bad enough that it indirectly rebooted archie sonic before it was killed
>>729393006They partnered with them to make Smash Ultimate and Kirby Air Riders.
>>729395482I'm surprised they never tried to copy Mario Party, I think? Also SRPG like Mario + Rabbids.
>>729392982Yes, but some retards would try to claim it's coming to Switch 1 to damage control what a Switch 2 exclusive Pokémon game means if it wasn't specified. You can be sure you are going to see a lot of "organic" posts by pokefags that are mad that they have to buy a new console in the months following the reveal.
>>729396502Isn't Sonic Shuffle an MP clone?
>>729395969One of the worst sonic games ever made, 06 tier bad, but even worse because Sega still actually does at least acknowledge 06. Sega would pretend chronicles never existed
>>729396243The funny part is that the devs had an interview with HungryBox prior to the release of the first game, and then they called out for Nintendo to "take notes" during said interview. That Multiversus ended up flopping had to have been karma at work.
>>729395482Finally accept that the 90s are over
>>729396502>>729396589If only SEGA had something special under their belt to differentiate itself from Mario.
>>729396838Never saw that interview but that bald dude always gave me "better than you" vibes. If that was the attitude that the team had then I'm not surprised that their game failed twice.
>>729396502It’s surprising, even Pac-Man had a Mario Party and only using Pac and the 4 ghosts
>>729397073I thought it also used various Namco characters like Heihachi and I don't remember who else, I saw it in Nintendo Power once
>>729395482At least release SA1&2 on Switch, even Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog for the fun. SEGA's support has been subpar but that's not exclusive to the Switch itself, it's more how retarded this company is. For how much western Nintendo fans complain about the lack of Starfox and F-Zero, SEGA is ten times worse by letting rot all their native IPs (not counting Atlus titles)
