Translated with Google, don't @ me>Amid this crucial context for the beginning of a new generation, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa gave an interview to the Japanese newspaper Kyoto Shimbun, addressing a wide variety of strategic topics. Among the main points were the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 in light of this memory crisis, the company's vision for new games and established franchises, as well as plans involving films, potential anime, and the expansion of the Nintendo brand beyond games. The conversation offers a rare glimpse into the company's current philosophy and how Nintendo envisions its future in the coming years.>When questioned about production costs and potential price increases, Furukawa adopted a cautious tone. He explained that the Switch 2 components had been acquired based on "medium--term" orders which are still being fulfilled throuout the first quarter of 2026, which helps to reduce the immediate impact of market fluctuations, such as the current increase in memory prices, driven by high demand from the artificial intelligence sector.>Still, the executive acknowledged that if spot prices were not stabilized by the time orders were completely fulfilled, the company would have no choice but to purchase components at the current market rate. When asked directly about the possibility of price adjustments for the console, he did not shy away from answering that it would be inevitable in this scenario. However, he stated the company remains optimistic that component costs will return to normal rates in the coming months.
>>730666356>However, he stated the company remains optimistic that component costs will return to normal rates in the coming months.Spit in one hand and wish in the other and see which fills up first.
i'm pretty sure almost everyone expects the price to increase this year.
>>730666356so they do have contractsbut those contracts don't last forever
>>730666356>However, he stated the company remains optimistic that component costs will return to normal rates in the coming months.But /v/ and every grifter on Twitter and YouTube told me that prices were fucked for the next 50 years! Just like when the 5000 series were impossible to get at MSRP for all of 4 months
>>730666481>so they do have contracts>but those contracts don't last foreverDidnt they say it will stabilize by 2028 or so? Thats probably when the contracts end considering he said 'medium-terms' so I assume that's a couple years post launch. I think they will be ok. Switch 2's lifecycle has just begun we have almost a decade with it still.
I wonder what the price increase looks like for the big threeisn't it going to be a percentage or they will all jump $50 bucks
>>730666665>Didnt they say it will stabilize by 2028 or so?Assuming no one places a single order of RAM between right now and 2028, prices will return to normal. "Stabilize" doesn't mean return to normal though, when people talk about RAM prices stabilizing they simply mean they'll stop fluctuating
Is there going to be advancements in RAM at all? I assume once the data center orders DDR6 RAM, a lot of DDR5 RAM will become available to the general market
>>730666679PS5 will probably be the least affected, since Sony ramped up production and started stockpiling them like crazy when the tariff shit was going on. Plus it's a 5 year old console, so demand isn't that high and there's a lot of retailer inventory Switch 2 will probably eat shit a little, the only saving grace is that it doesn't have that much memory to begin withXSS and XSX might just go out of production
>>730666890Why would the factories keep producing DDR5 if demand shifts to DDR5? Most of the infrastructure is shared for these product classes
>>3367469238Yeah, the gravity stuff was peak Nintendo. This vid shows it off pretty well: https://youtu.be/qq8oLKqySrw
>>730666991>Why would the factories keep producing DDR5 if demand shifts to DDR6?i can only assume it's cause some factories aren't built out to make DDR6 stuff, but I'm not sure how industrial production shifts when there's a new product line. maybe it'll only take them months to move to make DDR6 stuff.
There's a sort of weird irony over how /v/ spent last year worshipping AI and spurging out about tariffs affecting PC prices, and in the end AI does more to fuck prices than tariffs ever did.
I didn't even know ddr6 ram existed, nor do I understand why it needs to. Computers are fast enough, games look fine enough. There is no reason to continue to 'progress,' just make the existing products widely available
>>730666679Since there's a convenient excuses for increasing prices (inflation, tariffs, AI), the big three will use it to increase prices across the board even if it doesn't affect them.
>>730666481Prices are going up so much it'll get to a point it'll be more profitable to break those contracts and pay whatever penalties result just to sell those components to the AI data centers.
hey the entire pc and console market is fucked for the foreseeable future but at least sukdeep gets to generate images of peach soifacing.
>>730667234Current gen GPUs are on DDR7
>>730667296are you assuming data centers aren't also paying fair market value for these components? they're paying what others are pay, but just in larger quantities. the only reason consumer prices are high, is lack of supply, but the data centers are definitely not paying consumer prices.
>>730667407yeah, this is why there's no super series coming and why nvidia is looking to stop production of some 5000 series cards. the 5060ti 16gb is now a terrible proposition for them when they could be selling a 5080 with the same amount of ddr7 memory instead.
tfw I boughted
>>730667440NTA but Nintendo's contracts are for "fair" market value a year or so ago. That's no longer "fair" market value today. Now it's like 4x that.
>>730667407The RAM used as main memory and the RAM used in GPUs are not the same. DDR and GDDR are different standards.
>>730667407GDDR7, DDR and GDDR have been discrete RAM types ever since GDDR2.AI is fucking everything over since the RAM cartel is moving all their production to HBM3, which is what datacenter GPUs use.
>>730666356>Switch 2 sales are slowing down considerably>Time to raise the prices guys!Genius move, let's see how it works for them
>>730667743The Nintendbros will pay it. Whatever it is, they will pay it, for the latest Nintendo injection directly into their veins.
>>730666356>no one is buying! raise the price!
>>730667879That's a very aging market. There aren't many new nintendo fans.
>>730667879>Whatever it is, they will pay itVirtual BoyN64Wii U
>>730667743>>Switch 2 sales are slowing down considerablyReally buying that Christopher Dring's fanfiction, huh?
>>730667680I doubt there's that much of a bidding war to increase prices, it looks like RAM companies shift to please the data center, not the other way around
>>730667970It worked so well for Xbox they're raised the price two or three times now.
>>730668019VB and N64 was before the religion began. Wii U is their base. So Switch 2 will at least sell as much as the Wii U
>>730668083>So Switch 2 will at least sell as much as the Wii UIt already has
>post yfw you bought before the pricehikeLove City Trial 2.0
>>730668083>So Switch 2 will at least sell as much as the Wii UIt's already outsold the Wii U.
>>730667995Anon, I
>>730668083>VB and N64 was before the religion beganand does this count?
>>730668150>>730668126Then it is safe, and people worrying about Nintendo failing due to it are mistaken.
>>730668129Got two during the paypal 20% dealfeels REAL good
>>730668129Got it at Costco for 10% off the MKW bundle
>>730668129Honestly, it's a nice device.>Warriors games don't drop frames>Zelda games don't drop frames either. No idea why Link's Awakening needed a hardware upgrade to get a solid frame rate, but it is what it is>Kirby Air Riders is perfect >DK Bananza was fun (skipped DLC)>Wife and I can finally both a few games multiplayer like Portal 2 between the Switch 1 and 2.It's nothing spectacular, but it's fine.
>>730666356So they either release good games to justify the price increases or die for a generation again.
>>730668196Labo is great for 6-9 year olds.>T. bought every set when they went on deep discount like picrel before I had kids>Still NIB>Son is 2 nowGonna be a great time in 2030 or so.
>>730666356So much for le Switch 2 is immune to AI price hikes huh?
>>730668231A bunch of deranged people on the Internet are really desperate to paint the Switch 2 as a failure or "anti-consumer" because they really fear of Nintendo dominating once more, especially with the much stronger third-party support.
Glad I bought mine in december
>>730668129I have a Micro Center near me, got one for only $380.
>>730666890>a lot of DDR5 RAM will become available to the general marketOnce DDR6 releases it will be extremely expensive for a few years while yield rates increase and till more fabs are transformed/allocated for production so 90% of companies still will be using DDR5 because its cheapALSO you cant just magically create more fabs for no reason, you have to take in consideration demand in a long term scenario not a short term one.You create too much supply and price increases making your YEARS long investments worthless, that is why DRAM and NAND cartel controlled prices for a long time till chinese NAND/DRAM arrived, that is why TSMC can charge whatever it wants and still not create more fabs to met the demand right away, if they arent operating at 90-100% capacity then they are losing money.
Latefag problemI already got my switch 2 day 1 so it doesn't affect me
>>730668338>No idea why Link's Awakening needed a hardware upgrade to get a solid frame rate, but it is what it isGrezzo didn't have much experience with more advance console development since they were mostly on 3DS stuff, echoes of wisdom had much smoother frames since they got better.
Bought it day one because I knew price increases were inevitable. Consoles don't get sweeping price cuts anymore. They only go up in price. I just want to play my bing bing wahoo in peace.
Bought it day one
>>730668609For example a few years ago when DDR5 first released it took like 2-3 years for it to be adopted in the consumer market, DDR4 was around from 2014 to 2024 because it made no sense to DDR5 at all thanks to insane prices and capacity didnt double like it did with past generations.AM4 motherboards and CPUs were around for fucking forever for a reason and they still might be around for a few years more.
>>730668609>price increasesprice decreases*I need to sleep.
>>730668849>AM4 motherboards and CPUs were around for fucking forever for a reason and they still might be around for a few years more.AMD announced at CES that they were going to extend production on Zen 3 and AM4 parts because of the RAM shortages, it's already happening. At this point, if you're on a DDR4 PC, it might be more worthwhile to skip DDR5. ride out the shortages and wait until DDR6 boards are a thing.
>>730668019early 3DS as well
>>730666930>PS5 will probably be the least affected, since Sony ramped up production and started stockpiling them like crazy when the tariff shit was going on.No they didn't. Sony was the least prepared, not to mention they used a bunch of those resources on those Japanese only ps5s that didn't sell.
>>730668849>DDR4 was around from 2014 to 2024>AM4 motherboards and CPUs were around>was>wereThey're literally ramping up the production of AM4 and older chipsets this year
>>730669024>nintendo is a cult>besides that, this, also that too, it doesn't count
>>730669130so i can finally move on from my ryzen 5 3600 without paying bullshit prices? thank the lord
>>730666356The autistic Ninpedo and his bad karma did this...
>>730668447That's literally the whole point of the narrative. It's bought and sold by Western interests to make Nintendo look worse. Nintendo has the perfect gaming device that neither Sony nor MS thought of first. Nintendo plays a long game. Sony and MS CEOs are scared.
>>730666991Would AI make the RAM already full to the brim with all its generative content? how does someone order a backlog ahead of time just to wreck the economy.
>>730666356>be op>live in brazilan favela>hate Nintendo with a passion>find niche Brazilian Nintendo site and "translate it">nothing in the "translation" is in the article>post on /v/
>>730666356the PS5 price jump will be insane
>>730669535>36% according to this analysis >>730666679maybe an extra $100 dollarydoos
>cucktendo goy searched for first quarter of 2026 ITT Poor mutt, doom posted so much only to get completely fucked in the end kek
>$450!No Nintendo.>$500!No Nintendo.
>>730669535Nah they're a big company unlike Nintendo. I predict that the switch 2 will go up by at least $200 and the switch 1 another $50.
>>730669705Imagine thinking there isn't more text beyond the obvious cut off.>When questioned about production costs and potential price increases, Furukawa adopted a cautious tone. He explained that the Switch 2 components had been acquired based on "medium--term" orders which are still being fulfilled throuout the first quarter of 2026That's what was put in by the way and to no one's surprise, nothing.
>>730669842>Nah they're a big company unlike NintendoYes which is what makes them considerably more retarded.
>>730666356Yeah and the PS5 cost will go up and the steam cube people were begging for ended up being $1000Either way, AI chads and people with jobs who don't spend 50% + of their earnings on expenses will keep fucking winning while peasants without a dollar to their name will keep seething.
LmfaoRemember when tendies gave Sony so much shit about increasing the price their 5 year old console like it was the most egregious thing ever?And now they’ll need to defend their friends doing the same thing in less than 5 years. I won’t let them live it down lmao
>>730667743>>Switch 2 sales are slowing down considerably
>>730669705Can anyone translate what this retarded thirdie is babbling about?
>>730669968>Still, the executive acknowledged that the company needs to monitor the situation closely . When asked directly about the possibility of price adjustments for the console, he responded diplomatically:>I cannot comment on hypotheticals.
>>730669968What time? sony has raised the price of their 5 year old console multiple times now
>>730670031He's talking about the guy who ctrl+f'd his text but he didn't realise that there was more text off screen so he basically BTFO'd himself trying to shitpost about the guy he's calling a tendie.
>>730668231it's probably gonna end at around 100 million sold, which is still good but not switch 1 good. maybe a really good revision will get double dippers to buy more again like the switch 1 though.
>>730670126>this is your brain on retardationSeriously, why do tendies say the most ridiculous shit so confidently? What the fuck is wrong with them?
>>730670548given previous snoy price hikes thats inevitable though either that or the ps6 releases for 4 digit muttbucks
>>730668747The Switch OLED going to $399 and Switch 1 going to $340 was basically confirmation that things are going to get fucked. What a world we live in, it's actually cheaper to buy consoles earlier rather than at the end of a gen now.
>>730666356Thar's not what the article says about the components in OP>When questioned about production costs and potential price increases, Furukawa adopted a cautious tone. He explained that the Switch 2 components are acquired based on medium- and long-term plans , which helps to reduce the immediate impact of market fluctuations, such as the current increase in memory prices, driven by high demand from the artificial intelligence sector.>Still, the executive acknowledged that the company needs to monitor the situation closely .

>>730668438Samsung said Nintendo's slop is going up like 2 days ago, why are tendoids still larping?
>>730669842>snoy is actually this retarded
>>730670793Gooks say lots of things, few of them are trustworthy though.
How fucked is buckbroketendo?
>>730670681PS3 had MASSIVE downgrades along with those price cuts
>>730669842>only 200 dollaroosNintendies are retarded KWAB!
>>730670878>"nintendo is only making 64gb carts for the switch 2 forcing third parties to pay up premium"They were up to recently. ININ Games broke the news about 16GB and 32GB Switch 2 carts coming soon just a few weeks ago.
>>730670968>Dropping PS2 compatibility what else?
>nintendo is the least effected by the ram issues >snoys desperately trying to claim nintendo will increase in price the most and are trying to damage control early for the several hundred dollar price increase PS5 will have again
>>730670968Removing the backwards compatibility was a really big deal, yeah. The good old days of consoles being dirt cheap at the end of a gen is apparently over though. We didn't know how good we had it.
>>730670968>MASSIVE downgradesjust backwards compatibility, by which time your microwave could run PCSX2
>>730670918They can't be completely sold to gaijins so best case scenario they become a PS studio.
>>730671098To be fair nobody is buying PiS5s anymore so in a way snoys are not that affected.
>>730668129Same. Online was honestly all I needed, but they went above and beyond.
>>730671098>effectedyou mean affected
>>730671098Are you ok?
>>730671131>by which time your microwave could run PCSX2If you were willing to put up with the large compatibility issues which weren't fixed before 2021, especially if you wanted to run niche NTSC-J games.
this shit is going to be industry wide, we are all going to get gaped, pc or console.sony is 100% going to delay ps6 launch (in my opinion perfectly fine, will allow them to fix their software pipeline after jim ryans GaaS era)
>>730671375>(in my opinion perfectly fine, will allow them to fix their software pipeline after jim ryans GaaS era)they announced they are quadrupling down on GAAS for 2026 and beyond even if fairgames flops
>>730671251Switch 2 is performing even worse.Sony selling cars and Nintendo goes bankrupt, everything will work out in the end.
>>730671190>those carts were already a thing since launch, and games like azuma were already using themYou're talking about Switch 2 Editions here, which are just Switch 1 carts hence why they're playable on Switch 1 systems too.
>>730671451really? i know they are still doing marathon, and that MOBA game bungie is making, but what other GAAS will be out for 2026?
>>730671479>PS5 sales fall off a cliff while nintendo breaks records and increases their sales projections
>daily bad news for Nintendo GRIM
>>730671375it literally feels like the ps5 released yesterday. Games still look and load fine too. Let them extend the gen so they can release some actual exclusives like astro bot.
Just eat the tax
>>730671539And your proof of that is?
>>730666356Don't forget about the $120 or more to actually have the game on the card, evil company.
>>730671479>Switch 2 is performing even worse.Only if you read the fanfiction of journalists, especially as every media outlet is copy-pasting Christopher Dring's "I pulled shit out of my ass for Christmas numbers" crappy article
>>730671578>"bad news" for nintendo >look inside >its either terrible news for sony or some retard making up shit without a source
>>730671479Kek based!
>>730671451source?last (or the one before) shareholder meeting they said they are investing into asian games instead korean and chinese games too besides japanese ones.
>>730666679Nintendo and Valve prepared for this. Sony and Microsoft are going to get fucked hard by this>>730666930Being more prepared than Microsoft doesn't make you as prepared as Nintendo or Valve.
>>730667743Furakawa is an idiot. Kimishima did all the ground work for Switch 1 and he just coasted. COVID happened and Switch massively benefited from it. So he thinks Nintendo is unstoppable and that they can release whatever they want at whatever price. Now that the holidays have come and gone its clear that its struggling in every market but Japan (where its also the cheapest due to the weak yen). Furakawa is an idiot and think "Well we'll just increase the price" ignoring the major issue across gaming has been price. If they have to raise the price of this thing when its already not doing well, then its going to crash come this year. Nintendo is either going to have to try and revive the Switch 1 somehow or start putting shit on PC like Sony and Microsoft did.
>>730671707So you got none, okay.
>>730671570>breaking records of taking venezuelan and macaco dick The state of toytendo.
>>730671828>hes still on this covid cope steam saw huge gains in that timeframe, nintendo saw huge gains in that timeframe, even xbox saw gains in that timeframe, yet PS5 sales barely changed during that timeframe It really makes you think doesn't it?
>>730669842>Already two price hikes for the PS5 since launch>Without AI shit>But this time it won’t happen dude, however Nintendo…Kek these guys aren’t sending their best
>>730671875how many tens of millions of dog dicks have you sucked, sony cultist?
>>730671828Nintendo will never put games on PC. They would sooner go out of business. It's the same reason why they refuse to drop prices on their games. They would rather not get certain people's money than "devalue" their games by charging low prices for them. It's a pride thing.
>>730671894>snoy crying about valve with the same timdian cope lines
>>730671875Preach it xister
>>730671804why do steamgoys still keep trying to cozy up to "tendies"?buying a goymer PC was made irrelevant by everything worthwhile indie wise releasing on the switch 2 and it got even worse with the RAMpocalypse now
>>730671098>effectedBehold your average cultist.
>>730671690>Lying psychopath still lacrimating The melty never ends with Nintendo cultists KWABOTY
>>730671998>Nintendo will never put games on PCYou could say the same for mobile but they did it anyway. The only reason they could step back from it was because of COVID and Animal Crossing selling a bajillion copies. If Switch 2 sales slow even further due to price hikes, then there is going to be the same shareholder pressure to move games onto PC to try and make some money. They may try and release stuff on Switch 1 (I expect Kirby Air Riders will go there), but if they can't right the ship soon then shareholders will push for it. It's going to be hard to avoid well when Microsoft and Sony are doing the exact same thing.
>>730671828Switch 2 just needs some killer apps and it'll sell. 3D Mario, 3D Zelda, and Pokemon are enough to get people to upgrade. It also needs some fucking upgrade patches for games like Xenoblade really badly.
>>730671875Where's Chase?
>>730671190Wtf are you even talking about the manufacturer of the carts macronix confirmed themselves that they did not have a pipeline set up to create smaller carts. Why are you making shit up that is so easily verifiable?
>>730672293>its going to be hard to avoid when microsoft and sony are doing it!>xbox is 100% dead with only gamepass keeping the idea limping along >sony sales are crashing everywhere unless its F2P MTX slop
>>730672394@grok is this true??
>>730670681>The Switch OLED going to $399 and Switch 1 going to $340 was basically confirmation that things are going to get fuckedYou say that but that is just in America due to tariffs.
>>730672293>>You could say the same for mobile but they did it anyway.they aren't doing mobile ports brown nigga, at most they released two pokemon slot machines, one of which to this day is still raping all AAA chinky gachaslop so hard that gacha chart revenue numbers still vehemently refuse to acknowledge the JP server even exists when doing their "combined" shit
>>730672483America is Nintendo's largest market by far.
>>730672483best part is sony and microsoft jacked their prices up several times BEFORE the tariffs started hitting , while nintendo dragged their feet about it and then raised the price of the switch 1 to try avoid increase the switch 2's price
>>730672551Not compared to the rest of the planet.
By pooling some discounts and gift cards I can get through work, I can get a Switch 2 + Pokémon Z-A bundle for £331 (~445 USD). Is this likely to be the best price I'll get for awhile?
>>730670681>>The Switch OLED going to $399 and Switch 1 going to $340 was basically confirmation that things are going to get fucked.in my backwater shithole the oled is the equivalent of 275 usd before VAT on amazon, and that's without any sales discounts because i saw it this holiday season to go for as low as 225 usdso it sounds like only amerimutts are gonna get fucked
>>730672581and then snoys defend the price hikes with "muh tariffs!" and "muh inflation!"
>>730671828look at that pufferfish
>>730672279>>730672394My favourite parts of Christopher Dring's shitty article, besides the imaginary Christmas numbers, were>The first year of Switch 2 sales in France are lower (~ 30%) than the first year of the Switch 1 (which came out in March btw)>still pushing the idea that the Japanese are paying a Switch 2 for cheaper
>>730672584It's pretty close, even for software sales America is still far and away the highest. America is the most important market for gaming.
>"Switch 2 will get a price increase because of tariffs">literally nothing happens>"Switch 2 will get a price increase for reals this time!"Are doomposters going to be doing this all decade?
>>730672551After the fix of circana conveniently miscounting switch 2 numbers by half, mutts only bought 440k switches (1+2) in the entirety of novemeber.Just what famitsu tracks alone shows just japan bought a million switches in the same timeframe, and that's ignoring nintendo official stores because famitsu can't track those.Mutts are a dead market and the sooner you accept that the less it will hurt you long term.
>>730672663Most likely, would be similar to the MKW bundle sale that US had for cyber monday
>another day another massive L for Jewtendo I love it! Can't wait for NintenDeen's video covering this!
>>730666356>*laughs in Hacked Wii*I'm just going to play what I want for free and love it.
>>730672536>they aren't doing mobile ports brown niggaAre you fucking retarded? I'm saying that people said the same thing about Nintendo releasing games on mobile but they did end up putting shit on mobile. Did we forget>Miitomo>Super Mario Run>Mario Kart Tour>Dragalia Lost>Fire Emblem Heroes>Animal Crossing Pocket Camp>Dr Mario World>Pikmin BloomNintendo has done a lot on mobile. PC will be even easier as they don't have to make new games. But this idea Nintendo will never do something on another platform is contrary to whats actually happened. Sure, they'll never put shit on Playstation, but having their own PC client is very possible if the console model isn't working like it did. >>730672395>3D Mario, 3D Zelda, and Pokemon None of those games have saved a system. Zelda sells when it comes out at launch, but never several years after the fact. Pokemon is also in decline so I doubt it do much otuside of Japan. There is also already a Pokemon game on Switch 2 and it still is selling slow. They'd need a breakout new IP at this point.
>>730671894>>730672197You Snoys seem to be on cope mode, be prepared, Nintendo and Valve will have the only affordable gaming hardware even if they're not very strong.
>>730672769>Increases the price of everything >$100 for baby slop plus $50 amiibos to unlock music >nothing happened AAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>Nintendo will put their games on PC and kill their hardware>Valve will go public and sell to a company like Microsoft wants big Gabe bites the bulletWhy are Snoys like this? What is it about Nintendo and Valve that scares them so?
>>730672769>Are doomposters going to be doing this all decade?For the foreseeable future.If snoy falls like xbox did there's nobody left to put up a fight against nintendo on the hardware front.To make things worse multiple companies (including valve) are working in tandem undermining PC gaming, so if people don't fight against that steam will also go the way of the PiS5 and SeX leaving nintendo fully with no competition aside from maybe DMM and DLsite.
i think i'm concerned about zelda's 40th anniversary at this point. hell, every franchise in general that's over 30 years old is now on the brink of .......what is that word? is nintendo going to make another console in ten years? i can't see with all this change.
>>730673117>*once
>>730672968You know the mobile game stuff was just to shut up investors right? And when they found out that making console games and selling millions of em was far more profitable they just stopped supporting the phone games.
>Nintendo and valve
>>730672969>and Valvea grand for a goycube weaker than an entry level gayming laptop you can get for half the price and fully usable portable is not "affordable"
>>730667119for what purpose
>>730672968>but having their own PC client is very possible if the console model isn't working like it did.Anon, there's a massive overlap between PC users and Nintendo users, everyone but you seem to know this. Doing such a thing would cut massively into their console profits.
>>730673169In ten years the world is going to be a massive torture chamber and everyone is going to be too busy being tortured forever to play video games.
>>730673203>You know the mobile game stuff was just to shut up investors right?NTA but it wasn't, if you read up on the 2015 DeNA deal Iwata was in talks with them long before investors wanted them to move.
>>730673308thanks for correcting me.
>>730673156Not wanting Nintendo to take over console gaming fully is retarded, not wanting Valve to take over PC gaming fully even with their hardware is retarded. Why do you bastards want Sony to destroy console gaming and Microsoft to destroy PC gaming so badly? Why do you hate gaming so much?
>>730673234Overlap of what, pedophiles? Ninpedos never played a real game kek
>>730673224I'll cost $650-$700
>>730672818That would be catastrophic news for Nintendo then, we're talking 80-90 million Switch 2 units sold if so.

The masses still yearn for Pokeslop.>There is also already a Pokemon game on Switch 2 and it still is selling slow.Its a spin off, Legends Arceus sold about the same amount, as in way less than the mainline games on the same system that released both before and after it.
>>730674026thats not true, pedos also love the epic game store weird how timmy tencent keeps saying PC is dead and playstation is the future of gaming
>>730674083Same way /r/fucklinux is nothing but people saying every criticism of linux is unfair and you're a troll if you don't love linux.There's no such thing as a negative hivemind on reddit, only toxic positivity is allowed.
>>730674215>only toxic positivity is allowed.are you retarded? reddit? the place full of hate for trump?

I don't think he understands that he's supposed to samefag with "You'll survive" in another post.
>>730674390See you when Gen 10 comes out.
>>730672293> You could say the same for mobile but they did it anyway.Most of their mobile titles like Dr Mario flopped. As a matter of fact, the only title still going very strong is Fire Emblem Heroes and arguably Super Mario Run, because everything else is either in maintenance mode or reached EoS.
>>730674026hate to break it to you anon but there's a reason why miiverse was removed and never brought back.
>>730673343>not wanting Valve to take over PC gaming fully even with their hardware is retarded.i will not be gaslit into supporting a yacht company banning games i like for asinine reasons, games which i can buy on the jp nintendo eshop without issuesespecially not when half the greedy shit (like battle passes or lootboxes on PAID games) on the western vidya sphere either were invented by said yacht company or normalized by themi will cheer when the fatso kicks the bucket and the company goes to shit from either becoming public or some heir driving it to the ground
>>730666356I don't care until splatoon 4

>>730666356>$600 for a fucking Nintendo SwitchLol, this is the end. Wii U moment confirmed.
>>730674390>the spin off didn't sell as much as the mainline generation game? FLOP FLOP FLOP 2 MORE WEEKS AND NINTENDO IS DONE
>>730666356Thanks orange retard.
>>730674806i don't think the guys drawing splatoon porn on miiverse swapped ecosystems.

>>730674856datacenter jews are getting scammed by RAM jews, they got them to pay in advance for millions of sticks, but they will announce better sticks in 6 month anyway, and the contracts are signed already so now the 500 trillions AI datacenters will run on outdated garbage from the very moment they switch them on
>>730673995So he isn't denying that he is a blatant grifter then? That's some progress Deen! Maybe you'll even make a video worth watching that isn't regurgitating misinformation and talk about something worth a shit.
>>730675190keep crying snoy
>>730675407Say that again but without the tears.
>>730675314>from the very moment they switch them onmuttland is already having power grid issues to the point they cant even turn on the datacenters they are building
>>730674748Steam bans those games for the same reason NOA does it, because of payment processors which will be getting shit pushed in with new laws in a month or two.
>>730666356Key phrase being "in this scenario", not that it is inevitable. We don't know enough to really say it will for sure be raised. Markets are constantly shifting, availability of parts constantly changing, and cheaper production costs are always be sought after by companies.Nintendo may be Jewish with prices, but they recognize that raising Switch 2 past $450 (in civilized countries that is. Not yuropoor land) to cover production costs is a last resort. The system itself is already cheap enough to produce them, and turn a profit, and it continues to sell well. The last thing Nintendo wants is people refusing to buy their latest system because it costs $500 or $550. The company is well-off enough that they can afford to take a hit in production costs to move units.
>>730675450I'm looking forward to the reports being released with how much you snoys have been seething I'm guessing PS5 has hit all time lows
>>730675190Digimon lost. Sorry Eric.
>>730666356SAAAR GOOGLE IS VALID TRANSLATE AND I AM A VALID CODER/TRANSLATOR!!
>>730666356so the quality of their shitty rehashes will not increase
>>730666356So I WAS correct to buy a switch 2 at launch, and the price increase everyone feared IS coming?Nice to feel validated.
>>730673995>>730674061>"Switch 2 corporate apologists, the terminally online vocal minority"The one part where he's actually right>"r/Fucknintendo is a pro-Nintendo subreddit because people are actually criticizing instead of blindly hating everything about the company!!" Holy fuck cope
>>730675615DLsite made their own payment processor.Steam didn't even try despite already having the prepaid card system in place.Steam also has mary which valve refuses to do anything about.My trust on westoids is dead and buried, I would rather only buy from JP storefronts from now on instead of giving my money to westoid grifters.
I was born in 2000. When I was growing up, the Xbox 360 and its games got cheaper in prices. I bought Halo 3 in 2010 for $5, used at gamestop. Consoles got cheaper as they aged.What the FUCK happened? Why does a Series X cost so much more? Why is a Switch 2 increasing in price? I am 25 and have no education or future and will kill myself soon
>>730673995>muh safe spaceDamn, I didn't know anti-Nintendofags were such bitch niggers.
>>730672197>buying a goymer PC was made irrelevant by everything worthwhile indie wise releasing on the switch 2What are you talking about? PC has the most indie titles out of any system in history.
>>730675824>DLsite made their own payment processor.They did? Is it regional? I live in Western Europe and still have to buy funbucks off-site to get stuff on there.

>>730666356Why are people ITT celebrating buying a Switch 2 early? I thought the Switch 2 was for elite richfags, why would getting in before a price bump be something to brag about?
>>730674390>You’ll survive.Doubt that.
>>730676306Meanwhile…
>>730676679i'm not buying that unless i can mod peach with big tits

>>730666356Furukawa:>we have contracts>we think the RAM market will stabilize by the time our contract is overOP:>SWITCH 2 PRICE INCREASE IN INEVITABLEthis is why no one takes you faggots seriously.
>>730676874Streaming doesn't count.
>>730677105They have contracts for the first 2 quarters of 2026. So he is either hoping that the whole AI bubble pops in the next 6 months, or he knows he is fucked.OR, he knows that the Switch 2 is not selling as much, so he will negotiate a deal to keep the same price to avoid reducing volume or something.
>>730677286>They have contracts for the first 2 quarters of 2026where are you getting this?
>>730677286That's not what he said. He just said "our contracts are still active for the upcoming quarter". He's a CEO, he's not gonna be dumb and reveal the exact dates of his contract
>>730668062>Muh fair marketBrother government subsidy has entered the fray, there is no fair market when Stargate is printing TrumpBucks so we can beats the communists or whatever to have the best chatbot
Glad I got mine during the black friday deals for 400€ with mario kart blunded then
>>730666356>price increase may be inevitableDoes the same go for the amount games for Switch 2 or is it still not worth buying?
>>730678226Given that games like FF7 Integrade, DQ7 Remake, and RE are right around the corner, now is probably the best time to buy it. I know these are multiplats, but games are games. Combined with titles like DQ1 and 2 HD2D, MK World, Bananza, and others, you've got a hell of a lot better library than launch.If you're thinking of getting it, I would do it now incase of a price hike. Although, we can't know for sure if this is just another scheme to move units. Like the artificial scarcity that they used to employ.
>>730678226I already bought one
Man...i should have bought the mario kart bundle for 440€ during christmas.
>>730678664>Like the artificial scarcity that they used to employThey never did this.
>>730678869Is it not available anymore where you're from?
>>730676054Tranny simulator 2026 isn't worth the ram price
>>730678896So was it just a case of Nintendo underestimating demand? Because in some generations, they really did have stock issues.I remember having to reserve everything, otherwise I'd never get a copy of certain games of theirs. Nowadays I can just walk in and buy something without worrying about stock issues.
Damn , why didn't y'all tell me MKW is so beautiful?
>>730671104This only happened when it was a flop, like the GameCube was
>>730679376They did but you called them a bootlicker
>>730676158He got officially banned now? Wasn't it on the voting stage yesterday?
>>730676861i never noticed that during all the years that image got shared aroundholy fucking SHIT snoys have been more pathetic and for longer than i thought
>>730677286>that the whole AI bubble pops in the next 6 monthsmutts are already trying to invade third world shitholes like venezuela for the resources while AI companies are already talking about bailoutsthe bubble may not even last till february
>>730678664crying about "artificial scarcity" after nintendo went out of their way to try build up switch 2 stock and then kept saying sorry for not being able to meet demand meanwhile sony rushed the PS5 out the door and it took about a year or two for them to get supply in order while people scalped and panic bought the PS5and then snoys turn around and start crying "well IF the PS5 had more stock at launch it WOULD have outsold the switch 2's launch!!!"
>>730679054Nah, they still have it. But for the original price of 530€ again.
>>730679262>I remember having to reserve everything, otherwise I'd never get a copy of certain games of theirsI think that’s more related to retailers, I got my Amazon pre order cancelled for the new Hyrule Warriors because they didn’t have enough supply to guarantee me receiving it on day one kek
>>730672932
>>730679569The poll started like two days before Famitsu’s last week thread, I remember that’s where I first saw it
>>730679262>So was it just a case of Nintendo underestimating demand?As much as people here will say otherwise Nintendo doesn't have the brand loyalty everyone else does so they can't just flood the market.
>>730680274how the shit do you manage to get yourself banned from a loud and proud NDS hugbox?
>>730666356>the expansion of the Nintendo brand beyond gamesI'm beyond sick and tired of this. I purchase VIDEO GAME COMPANY stuff for their VIDEO GAMES. I'm not some faggot who buys shit like pic related because it's from [brand]. Make good fucking video games, Christ.The Switch 2 is the last console I ever purchase. I hope to upgrade my Steam Deck when that gets to be too old.
>>730680370Acting like this
>>730680370The reddit's main complaint was how he made them look like absolute retards and liarsKinda funny really
>>730680274>Is real.>https://www.reddit.com/r/fucknintendo/comments/1qavqmd/nintendeen_content_has_been_officially_banned/Legitimately fucking how?
>>730680274QRD, what am I looking at?
>>730673156>If snoy falls like xbox didNot outside the realm of possibility, depends on the performance of the PS6 when it comes out in 2030 or so. >so if people don't fight against that steam will also go the way of the PiS5 and SeXThis one is pretty far-fetched, considering the security of Valve's current position.
>>730680434If you hate it so much, how come you supported them doing it all the way until now? It's not like it's a new thing. They have made the majority of they money on merch for like 30+ years.
>>730680514>They aren't mad nintendeen is a grifter, they are mad he tried to move the overton window too fast and made too many people nooootice.Lmfao.
>>730680434It's meant to get you to play their games, not push you away from it, unlike Sony or Microsoft who aren't really video game companies need to stop making gaming hardware entirely. Sony and Microsoft made a mistake going for normalfags over video gamers as an audience.
>>730676679I mean it's really funny that it happened with Halo and Gears instead. Microsoft seemed stronger than Nintendo back then but life comes at you fast.
>>730680714we all noticed that game pass isn't the money maker they make it out to beand they keep doubling down on game pass
>>730679489Even the PS2 went way down in price.
>>730680618> come you supported them doing it all the way until nowMy normalfag friends are the kind of people who refuse to play older titles, and I pretty much exclusively play party games. I like Mario Kart World and Air Riders, but for how often it just sits in my home collecting dust I regret it. I think I've finally learned how bad it's gotten I guess.
>>730680370>>730680370by being even more deranged and a blatant liartldr niggerdeen lost and got raped
>>730680714Microsoft never cared about video games. They cared about it less than Sony did and just wanted to steal the living room, when that plan failed they nuked Xbox. Valve always saw Microsoft as a retarded company so they stepped in to take over PC gaming because Microsoft can't be trusted. Sony chased Microsoft like the idiots they are and left a gaping whole in a market they abandon that Nintendo easily took over. It's over for Xbox and PlayStation and both of these retarded companies deserve it. Normalfags that chose the Xbox and PlayStation can get their brown asses fucked too.
>>730680124Holy shit. This is why I still go to brick ahd mortar stores. Amazon has pulled this shit on more than a few occasions.
>>730680370He's a Nintendo centrist, so both the rabid haters and rabid fanboys hate him. That's how it goes these days, pick a side or you get attacked by both.
>>730680274>Deen's copium is getting too obvious that even nintendo haters are starting to notice>Deen responds to this with "w-well they banned me because the subreddit are full of nintendo worshippers. There is no safe space for criticism against nintendo and the fanbase"I hope he gets banned here next
>>730680537>retarded snoy makes a youtube channel dedicated to crying about nintendo because the switch 2 is a success >hes completely deranged, ignores basic facts and reality >is so retarded be makes the other youtube faggots look bad>shills his dead channel everywhere he can >hes so bad that even dedicated anti-nintendo sites start to get fed up with him>culminates with them just banning him on sight
>>730680714>Microsoft seemed stronger than Nintendo back thenNot at the time of that image, the Xbox One was doing better than Wii U but the 3DS massively outshadowed it
>>730680845Phil Spencer keeps wanting them to push the failing Game Pass and make in-house hardware. Once he's gone, Microsoft will drop Game Pass entirely and shift to full OEMs with no backwards compatibility until that fails too.
>>730681168I don't think Phil will ever leavehe's going to take the whole system down with him
>>730672769controllers and the camera went up in price
>>730681030Good, maybe this will leave an opening for more competition from actual video game companies, and not just multinational conglomerates that don't specialize in vidya first. The day those two moved into the market was the worst, and turned vidya into a joke.Hopefully businesses like Apple and Samsung don't try to weasel their way in.
>>730681053hi deen, are you gonna upload a fifth video using the article where dring admitted he lied about the so called bad switch 2 december sales or are you working on the tantrum video over the grifter subreddit banning you for being too fucking stupid even for them first?
>>730681078There's no way that he's getting banned here.This site is run by three-letter agents.
>>730681283No, Facebook will enter (they already have the quest 3)and tencent or netease will give it a go
>>730681053>centristAn actual centrist or just American "centrists" that are considered fair and balanced just because they don't think the holocaust was a hoax.
>>730681053based. fuck fence sitters
>>730681379Hopefully they fail too so a company like Saga can throw their hat in the ring.
>>730681053>>730681452Reminder deen is a sonicfag, which should tell you everything you need to know.
>>730681283Apple tried and failed, when so many of the conglomerates couldn't get in, it showed the gaming market as volatile, PlayStation and Xbox dying is going to bring in a new kind of fear keeping these non-gaming companies out. Once PlayStation and Xbox are gone, I wonder if Nintendo and Valve will get a real challenge from a proper gaming company as you stated.
>>730681078All things considered this is probably a turning point in the NDS community, unironically.The divide between the "we must be fair and truthful on our criticism against nintendo" and the "YOU DON'T HATE NINTENDO ENOUGH, TURN PEOPLE AGAINST THEM BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY! SLIT THEIR THROARS!" has begun and it will only get worse from now on.
>>730681379They will all fail, none of them have or know what Nintendo or Valve have that would get people interested in their products. Nintendo and Valve understand their markets way too well.
>>730681693>playstation 5 will sell over 100 million consoles>and make fuck tons of money on bullshit like subscriptions and mtx>/v/ still larps like playstation is dying
>>730666930Even if PS5 isn't effected, Sony will cite the RAM price hikes and increase prices for the PS5 models regardless just because they can.
>>730681830PS5's sales are slow and dropping, they can no longer grow their market, they have no games, they're rumored to be raising the PS5's price again, and the PS6 and companion handheld will be expensive, they also keep porting their games to PC and some to even Switch and Xbox. It's over man, they're not coming back from this. Players with PS4s, PS5s, Xbox Ones, and Xbox Series consoles aren't interested in next generation consoles after this gen. Sony has lost players to Switch and PC. 10th generation will be the end of the PlayStation hardware.
>>730668019Labo and that new lego Pikachu too
>>730681053>"He's a Nintendo centrist">spends 7 months lying out of his ass that the switch 2 "failed"No one is falling for this, deen. Not even the nintendo hating redditors believe the shit that comes out of your mouth
>>730682108GTA6 will push it over 100 million. The PS4 only sold 114 million and they raised the price of PS+ since then so they're sitting pretty regardless.No one is buying a Switch instead of a Playstation, they are consoles with different functions. You buy a PC or Playstation(or I guess Xbox lmao) and a Switch on the side. That's how it goes. You skip the Switch if you don't care about Nintendo games, you skip the PC/Playstation if you mostly care about Nintendo games.
>>730673995>>730674061>They're silencing me!>He shouted from twitter>I'm not allowed to criticize Nintendo!>He said from his monetized youtube channel that exists only to criticize Nintendo. Why do people worship ecelebs?
This whole thread is zoomers suddenly learning what inflation is
>>730682221>vaporware6 will save us!i will remind you that game is such a shitshow that it hasn't even passed console certification after a fuckton of attemptsi will also remind you that for the buggy mess it was, trannypunk at least did pass console certification, which means GoyTA6 is somehow exponentially buggier than launch cyberpunk
>>730682221GTA6 won't push anything, it'll get delayed, cost $80-$90, not make its money back, and lead to Take 2 finally downsizing hard. Nothing is saving the PlayStation, its value is lost because of the Switch and PC, it gets worse now that Japanese third parties are all coming to the Switch 2 and PC.

>>730682396>>730682408It doesn't matter, GTA is like Pokemon. They can release the worse game of all time and sell an obscene number of copies and the retards into the series will pretend like the terrible game isn't bad.>i will also remind you that for the buggy mess it was, trannypunk at least did pass console certification,It also sold an obscene amount at release. Fuck, people bought Xbox Series X consoles for Starfield. Imagine being a retard that saw the 10/10 reviews and paid $570+tax for Starfield, normalfags will never research what they're buying.
>>730669968Don't worry, snoy will up the cost yet again.
>>730682580>MK world is FRENCH FRIES
>>730682689Nice. I love french fried potatoes.
>>730682580Yeah…
>>730682580Yes and its extremely retarded because everyone loves french fries in some places people to to restaurants specifically to buy french fries in fact the demand for french fries is so high they sometimes need to release XXXL sized portions
>>730682618Pokemon has fans, GTA just has disloyal normalfags, it's dead on arrival, as dead as the PlayStation brand. This is why Snoyalists are pushing GTA as the game that will save the PlayStation and AAA gaming because they know it's over.>Fuck, people bought Xbox Series X consoles for StarfieldNo, they didn't, Microsoft gave the Xbox division the mission to sell many Xbox Series X with Starfield and the game didn't move the needle, this is why Microsoft started killing Xbox as soon as 2024 hit. Xbox is over, PlayStation is next. Stating that Starfield sold well is like saying Game Pass was successful, if these were indeed true, Xbox wouldn't be dying right before our very eyes, idiot.
>>730666356>Don't sell enough consoles or games, partially because it was too pricey>increase prices even more in responseWhat is this strategy called?
>>730682741>basic>gets stale fastHe's right but he gave people easy ammo to make fun of him with that analogy
>>730682958Its the Playstation 5 gambitconsole is dogshit with no games? raise the price 4 times then put AI censorship in it
>>730682480Every day I thank myself for taking the time to never know a god damn thing about any eceleb past the late 2000s.
>>730682929GTA is the biggest fucking IP in gaming with the biggest retarded fanbase, you lunatic. GTAO has kept idiots playing 5 for a decade and GTARP is still huge. The fanbase is arguably more zealous than the Pokefags, you just don't release it because it's been 12 years since the last one. >No, they didn'tI distinctly remember seeing people buying Series X consoles leading up to the release date and then also seeing posts about people that bought a Series X lamenting that decision the weeks after release because they wasted their money on a garbage game. >Stating that Starfield sold wellI didn't even say it sold well, I said morons bought a console to play it because normalfags don't check online discourse before making purchases. Meaning that even if GTA6 is a buggy broken mess, they won't know that and will buy it anyway.(Like what happened with Cyberpunk and Pokemon Scarlet and Violet).But yeah, GTA is just Pokemon for dudebros in regards to how they will purchase the games no matter what.
Nothing ever happens.
>>730682989That would be a better critic than what he said, his analogy was this>MKW is french fries>Nobody buys fries alone, they get them as a side for the main dish
>>730683097Its hard to not pick up on some of this shit when the retard is always on /v/ having meltdowns and giving out personal information while shilling his dead channelits how people found out he was a shitty absent father
>>730682741>Deen makes a food analogy video because he was upset and hungry since his family left to celebrate christmas without him
>snoys still lyingkeep farming that negative karma
>>730683302>GTA is the biggest fucking IP in gamingFortnite, Zelda, Roblox, Mario, and Pokemon are the biggest IPs in gaming, Counter Strike is bigger than GTA. GTA is the most astroturfed piece of shit on the planet.>I distinctly remember seeing people buying Series X consoles leading up to the release date and then also seeing posts about people that bought a Series X lamenting that decision the weeks after release because they wasted their money on a garbage game.You remember wrong then, the game was supposed to save Xbox, it didn't save Xbox meaning it didn't meet Microsoft's sales demand for the Xbox Series consoles.>didn't even say it sold well, I said morons bought a console to play it because normalfags don't check online discourse before making purchases.And I said that it didn't sell enough Series consoles to save the Xbox, so it flopped.
>>730683590I also forgot MineCraft as one of the biggest IPs in gaming. How could I forget that one?
>>730683573>even his posts are ports
>>730683590Not sure if you're delusional, retarded, or just a zoomer. Might be a mix of all 3.
>>730666356Don't care, got mine. The OLED/die shrink revision is years away any way.
>>730682741
>>730666481yes all commercial product buyers have contracts
>>730668425Anybody want to tell this tendie what children are REALLY like?
>>730683573Good, you are still insufferable you stupid nindian.
>>730684167>relive my childhood>With these toys that didn't exist when I was a childyou okay?
>>730666356but I thought it would only affect pc gaming... nintendo sisters, it's over
>>730684384Today's parents definitely had the NES. The NES is 42 years old.
>>730684167>Don't give a child a phone/tablet as a fetus>Let them get naturally curious about games you are playing as they grow up>If they are into it, you have a bonding hobby with your kid>This makes childless anons seethe endlessly
>>730684476Anon was talking about labo.Also I don't put any pics of my kids online ever for any reason.
>>730684265>nindiancan you remind me which console has the india hero project? i conveniently forgot
>>730684539based
>corporate bootlicking threadI guess you guess would defend a price hike so hard. Not like you have anymore games to play.
>>730684539>just shelter them bro!You're in for a world of pain when that child meets other children>>730684384Dumbass
>>730684771>"just shelter them bro!"It isn't the internet's fucking job to raise children. Not that you'd understand you faggot.
>>730683781A mobile port, no less
>>730684878The fact that you think the internet is raising your kids and that its illogical when your child cries that you bought him a fucking N64 instead of a tablet/phone that he can play the games that his friends are playing speaks volumes. Or maybe you want to raise a friendless shut-in? Good luck with that. You shouldn't project yourself onto your kids. Its unhealthy. He might not even like video games--fucking mystery how I would know this, I'm sure.
>tendies have started to cope about gta6Lmao shits hilarious
>>730683682minecraft has the same boost oregon trail does where licenses are sold to schools. that's probably 1/3rd if not more of the licenses since it's such an old game and has been the modern oregon trail forever now.
>>730684623>Nintendo is a complete flat line>Sony is the uncontested champion on IndiaThis explains a lot
>>730668338>No idea why Link's Awakening needed a hardware upgrade to get a solid frame rate, but it is what it isI was happy with it. I bought that on a e-Shop sale years ago and sat on it until I got a Switch 2 just to fix drops. The resolution being raised was a nice bonus.
>>730685289>snoys start losing again and as always begin coping about GTA6>they seethe and scream when you point out its likely getting delayed to AT BEST 2027
>>730682480>9:11
>>730683784None of the above, 7th gen kid. Normalfag/AAA era of gaming is over. No more free money for you.
>>730685706if you can't even realize >>730685304 then you need to realize your opinions are dogshit. desu just look at how the normalfags jerk off over rdr2 lmao, that doesn't have the same brown appeal that gta does. you're a fuckin moron if you don't think gta is the biggest thing in gaming.
>>730685803>RDR2You mean the third party game that couldn't save the Xbox. If these games were as huge as you say they are, Xbox would be selling. If Take 2 can't restore people's interest in Xbox, they won't restore people's interest in PlayStation. Snoys are as much of a dying breed as Xbots. The direction Sony and Microsoft took gaming with the PS3 and Xbox 360 was never meant to happen. Gaming is course correcting itself. GTA6 is the last major game before the great AAA collapse.
so what's the time limit to grab a switch 2? i was planning to get one eventually
>>730686205>GTA6 is the last major game before the great AAA collapse.Arguably it already is collapsing and GTA6 is desperately delaying itself to try weather out the storm.Unfortunately that just means the torture for the west and AAAs even in japan will be extended for longer, simply releasing it and ripping out the bandaid would mean a faster healing and maybe with some luck things would get a fresh start by the PS6.But by delaying it so much they are also dooming the PS6 and nextbox alongside GTA6.
>>730666356Being an early adopter feels good bros
>>730682958Did Nintendo miss their forecast or are people just making shit up again?
>>730686525As of last report they beat the forecast by a mile and updated it again.Next report on february.
>>730686205> GTA6 is the last major game before the great AAA collapse.this you're right on about. that whole xbox shit is irrelevant to rdr2 selling 80 million copies despite beiing way more niche than gta. if gta 6 lives up to the hype, it kills aaa gaming because it's got a $1 billy budget and nothing else ever compares. ain't nothing competin w/ that scope creep. if it sucks then the industry crashes because if even the biggest ip in gaming can fail, there's no point in makin games w/ big ol budgets anymore. >>730686413>But by delaying it so much they are also dooming the PS6 and nextbox alongside GTA6.those are getting pushed back due to the ram prices anyway.
>>730686413Europe needs to stop trying to delay the AAA crash, it needs to happen, and western and eastern studios have to downsize. It's the only way. 2007 on up isn't coming back.
>>730685443Nothing you said made any sense. It doesn’t matter when gta releases, it will sell tens of millions in days, let alone lifetime. No amount of cope will ever change that. GTA 5 alone has outsold the entire Zelda franchise. Not just bore of the wild. The entire fucking franchise.
>>730666356Still not buying.
>>730686525Worse, they put trust in >>730670016
>>730666356Tendies deserve to get milked like the goycattle they are.
>>730686525nintendo increased their forecast and NDS victims have been trying to claim switch 2 flopped in december despite there being no data for december released anywhere
>>730686623>those are getting pushed back due to the ram prices anyway.Not him, but I'm going to be serious with you about the next Xbox, if that gets delayed, it's not happening. Microsoft doesn't even want to make it and are fine canning it, if Phil or his team causes any delays, Microsoft is pulling the plug and shifting to full OEMs. Next Xbox will release as planned with a ridiculously high price that Microsoft couldn't care if it doesn't sell at all. Sony will probably delay the PS6 though if they see a reason to.
>>730686685>the snoy cries it doesn't matter as the game is delayed another year
>>730686848Lmao, stupid fucking nintengoy.
>>730687062Livestream your hands and prove me wrong, Eric.
If the price increases they will just remove the base console and only having a $500 bundle. Including a game costs them nothing.
>>730687113>prove me wrongI already did, retard.
>>730686892>Next Xbox will release as planned with a ridiculously high price that Microsoft couldn't care if it doesn't sell at all.p sure this is exactly what happens and they use that as a reason to shitcan xbox forever. i doubt they even do oems after that, all that ram they're puttin in xbox consoles could be used for their AI data centers instead. def would not be surprised if we never see another new xbox and they partner with some prebuilt company to have em shove a logo on a box for a year and that's it.
>>730687418this seems to be what they're gearing up for after they admitted that the next xbox will just be running windows
>>730666356waitfags BTFO, early adopters win again. I bet the launch switches will be the easily hackable ones again too.
>>730666356>potential animeMore info on this.
>>730687512He was asked about the Mario and Zelda movies and he said more info will come soon and Nintendo’s focus for movies is all about character exposure, then he was asked if they will make anime with their franchises and he replied “if we can create works uniquely Nintendo, it’d be good in the future”
>>730687418That's basically what they're doing, new layoffs are coming, Xbox insiders are trying to claim that it's not for Xbox, but I'm pretty sure Xbox is going to be a major part of it. I don't see a future for Xbox hardware. They're shifting to third party publisher completely and it's showing more and more. How can anyone get excited for Xbox full screen experience when Microsoft keeps putting more and more into AI over gaming?
>>730686525They admitted several times that their sales numbers of the switch 2 and accompanying software are underwhelming and below expectations, and people had to take their hat and leave.Not as bad as Wii U days mind you but the fat switch years are coming to a close.
>>730687213they'd lose profits on the game itself no?
>>730688131>>They admitted several times that their sales numbers of the switch 2 and accompanying software are underwhelming and below expectations,where did they even said that?
>>730688131 (You)Oh I almost forgot to mention that I’m trans and indian, not sure if that matters
>>730688131Nice sametrannying, Eric.
So how long until companies go cloud only gaming?
>waitfags keep getting BTFO'dShoulda gotten a new rig last Christmas but I at least got a Switch 2 I guess
>>730684143They should be more honest about it.
The wheel of FUD just keeps on spinning, huh
>>730688945inb4 "t-t-t-this image triggered t-tendies so much"
>>730688945Reminder we are barely halfway into the switch 2's first year as well.NDSfags will only get even more deranged from now on.
>>730688729Never, cloud costs too much money to maintain, they all are going to reduce in size, use AI and become AA again. High budgets for video games is a dying trend, and everyone got the signal that the normalfag era of gaming is over. This is why companies like Nintendo and Valve are making weak handheld hardware with options for TV play (also desktop play for Valve) at affordable prices, companies are selling PC parts from generations ago again, and indie, A, and AA games are rising again. Free government money is going away and now these studios and publishers are going to have to work to earn their keep since AI is the new hot shit over gaming. If the bubble pops, nothing will change since the US money that got pumped into this nonsense got shut down. AAA studios that live will become AA studios and return to making more games because they need the money and one game/franchise is not going to cut it anymore. Microsoft will become tired of making gaming hardware and go fully third party, Sony will eventually do the same. Most games will be multiplatform for PC and Switch, but some will be exclusive to just PC and Switch. We'll start seeing more PC-only and Switch-only games in due time. Nintendo will be the kids market, PC will be the adult market. You start off with a Nintendo console and as you get older you move to PC hardware.
>>730689307>and ValveStill get a laugh every time at steamgoys pretending they aren't the snoys of PC.
>>730683590There is not a single game out there that is as hyped or will sell as many copies in its opening weekend as a GTA game. That’s what he meant
>>730689389Please tell me, who's on Valve level for PC gaming?
>>730689432I'm not seeing it, there was hype when it was first announced, but that hype is drying up with each delay.
>>730689534It doesn’t even matter when it comes out. It’s literally going to be like watching the moon landing
>>730666446Holy shit he's literally saying the AI bubble will pop.Praise nitendo
>>730689659More like watching the Challenger.
>>730689659lmao, GTA got as big as it was because of the hype around the PlayStation and Xbox, one is dead, the other is on life support. Give it up, man, it's over.
>>730666529If Nintendo himself is saying the AI bubble will pop soon we should trust in his plan.
>>730689735The ps5 is going to be over 100m install base very soon here I wouldn’t exactly call that being on life support. Yes xbox is largely a non factor but people will come out on it for gta 6.
>>730666356>Translated with Google, don't @ me
>>730668447>>730669389good morning sirs
>>730666356I didn't want a Switch 2 at launch. I want one even less now. There aren't any games worth the entry price into the platform.
>>730689878No, it won't>Yes xbox is largely a non factor but people will come out on it for gta 6People will barely be able to afford an Xbox by the time GTA6 releases, let alone find one in stores since Microsoft is intentionally having them removed from retailers.
>>730690015>>730689939Nice sametrannying, Eric.
>>730671098>>730673382saarrs.. we're not doing good job..
>>730690020There are 30m Xbox out there. The ps5 is right now probably at 90ish million out there it will be around 100m by GTA 6 releases and that doesn’t even factor in additional sales as ps5 is the main platform for it
>>730666446All three companies have already started increasing production. Prices will be back to normal by 2027 at the current rate.
>>730689389>snoys of PCthat would be EGS
>>730682580Yes. Basically,>Fries are usually the best selling item at a restaurant but not the item everyone is there for. You usually buy something else and often get fries as the side. Mario Kart is a "side" since you usually will buy a Nintendo console for something else but you get Mario Kart anyway because its Mario KartIt's a good analogy and I don't know if there is a comparable example without going to food.
>>730672197Obsessed
>>730690020>all the threads doomposting gta6 were the work of assmad tendie cultists all alongImagine my shock.
>>730690327>Shovelware nobody wants except for one thing (fortnite/adobe).>Effectively ruined the industry with their bullshit (UE5/do I need to say anything?).More like the apple of gaming, in a bad way.
>>730690568Nice sametrannying, Eric.
>>730690151>There are 30m Xbox out there.Who gives a shit, Microsoft sure as hell don't, the amount of people that got a Series X is less than the ones who brought a Wii U back during the 8th generation. Series S players make up the majority and they're casuals who couldn't give much of a shit about gaming. This numbers means nothing because Xbox is dead, irrelevant, and is on the verge of no longer existing.>The ps5 is right now probably at 90ish million out there it will be around 100m by GTA 6 releases and that doesn’t even factor in additional sales as ps5 is the main platform for itThe constant delays of GTA6 will kill the PlayStation.
>>730690568>defending Xbitch
>>730690568>posting an interview from rockstar staff explaining that the game keeps failing cert and isn't finished: DOOM POSTNG HOW DARE YOU TENDIES >endlessly spamming claims without proof about sales despite every source saying they have not released any data: its just reporting why are tendies so mad just accept that dring said nintendo lost and stop buying nintendo
>>730690862The series s casuals are the same people who bought a ps5 just for gta 6. They will sell a fair amount on Xbox just because it is and has been a cheap gta 6 box compared to ps5.We’ll just have to see if it gets delayed again. RDR2 had an identical amount of delays at this point
>>730690275And people were worried about the Steam Machine pricing, kek. That shit will be affordable.
>>730690568Says the snoytranny still posting shit like Pic related daily.
>>730666356>$699.99 US Dollars for a bingtendo 2(aka PS4)eric wonned....
>>730690568Tendies are just mad that Rockstar games dwarf everything their friends have made since inception. Like I get it, it’s embarrassing. Red dead redemption, an 8 year old franchise, sold multitudes better than the biggest Zelda game ever and it’s $70 reused assets dlc combined.
>>730691056>>730691081Nice sametrannying, Eric.
>>730690976Xbox is dead, give up on it. I can understand a normalfag defending PlayStation because even that piece of shit still has life left in it but Xbox has been a decaying corpse since Peter Moore left years ago. Sony still has some faith left in SIE, Microsoft has no faith left in Microsoft Gaming. You're not getting your 7th gen back, Xbox was relevant only here in the US during the 7th gen, from there it was just cope and nothing more.
>>730691132I’m not defending Xbox. This is just objective about how it will see GTA 6. There’s no doubt about it that it’s done for though as a whole. It’s just extra sales from a presumably direct port from PS5s GTA 6.
>>730691081>hes crying about GTA againreminder that they cancelled any DLC content to instead shit out more P2W trash for GTA online and that people were buying multiple copies of the game because it was on sale so often for so cheap that it cost less to buy 5 copies of the game for the shark card codes that came with it than it was to buy a shark card normally
>>730690976>The series s casuals are the same people who bought a ps5 just for gta 6At this point I just wonder if the series S will be able to run the game at all
>>730691517It has the CPU to do so. The resolution might be lower than X/PS5 versions but it has the same CPU roughly as the other 2
>>730691268Well then, you should just see GTA6 as a PlayStation game, Xbox is no longer a part of the discussion since it's dead. When the company that owns the console has no faith in it, it's a dead console.
>>730691517look at trannypunk's launch, it doesn't have to run it well, it can run it at 5fps and normalniggers would be fine with it
>>730691594Yes, that’s the way it is. It’s virtually a ps5 exclusive with Xbox being extra goodies in sales on somewhat of an existing install base due to a direct port pretty much
>>730691603Why do you constantly post the same exact footage of a notoriously badly made game on all platforms? You’re not helping your case, you know that right?
>>730666356yeah I might just never buy one of these at this point, I'd rather spend the money on a fancy chinkheld to emulate because WHERE ARE THE GAMES?
>>730691727>Please stop reminding me even the PiS5 pro runs games like ass!No, I don't think so.I will keep reminding you of objective reality whenever possible.
>>730691743Nice sametrannying, Eric
>>730691916It simply won’t work though. You are cherry picking examples of poorly made games on every platform. You’re just doing it because you can’t afford a ps5. If only you knew that call of duty runs at 4k/120fps on the base ps5
>>730691727>>730692004Nice sametrannying, Eric
>>730692004>"B-but cawadoody runs 120fps"Snoy can't come up with more examples because there's nothing to play on the pis5
>>730692004>4k/120 fps the piss5 pro cannot do this either
I can't believe that Nintendeen won...
>>730692213There are, but call of duty is a good measure of what the ps5 is capable of. Spamming poorly made games(that run worse on PC) doesn’t work here. Sorry.
>>730692278It’s known that black ops 7 is 4k/120fps on ps5. More than what your 5k potato can run. That’s why pc fags get salty about Sony. Because it beats their raw number machines
>>730692289>>730692375>call of duty is a good measure of what the ps5 is capable ofits not when they are still using the exact same PS4 engine while the PiS5 shits the bed with anything more recent like the DQ remake which the switch 2 can run perfectly fine
>>730692280>>730692289>>730692375Nice sametrannying, Eric. And o it doesn't, it doesn't even reach a stable 70
>>730692418DQ remake is not more graphically demanding than call of duty. Not even close. It’s just a piss poorly made game>>730692421Source? I can find videos right now of it running at 120fps
>>730692375>That’s why pc fags get salty about Sony. Because it beats their raw number machinesNigga BO7 runs on ewaste older than your own ass that should have been aborted.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7d68ImBiZ8wIt even runs on potatoes so crusty they don't even have a dedicated GPU.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xK_Yvn-pisk
>>730692526>DQ remake is not more graphically demanding than call of duty. Not even close. It’s just a piss poorly made gameIt runs perfectly on the switch 2 and the gaybox while even the PiS5 pro struggles due to it's dogshit CPU.
>>730692375the pro cannot run anything at 4k it has to upscale cope
>>730692526>It’s just a piss poorly made gameDon't blame the third party devs, blame the pis5 pro's shitty hardware :^)
>>730666679Nintendo locked the fuck in for their hardware cost before the increase. The other consoles are the ones in trouble in the short term.
>>730668338>The only ones actually buying a Switch 2 are normalfags with no tasteNow it's all starting to make sense.
>>730692280…the cum swallowing contest, Eric was such a fierce opponent tho
>>730692598Unfortunately the ps5 has a better cpu than the switch 2 by 2-3x. >>730692805Blame the switch 2s shitty hardware for not running Elden ring
>>730692545Sadly it can’t run on the switch 2, terrible hardware
>>730693062elden ring is on the switch 2 unless you want to say GTA6 isn't on PS5
>>730693062>Unfortunately the ps5 has a better cpu than the switch 2 by 2-3x.if it were true it wouldn't be struggling so much with a basic jrpg done on an engine that ports to everything equally lol
>>730693117Who the fuck is Eric?
>>730693123The switch 2 build already got datamined cacobro.
People that bit the bullet and bought their PC/Switch/Whatever early one and got called idiots for not waiting for the price drop had sure made off like a bandit here.
>>730693173So why can the ps5 run cyberpunk at 60fps with higher cpu intensive NPC density and such? Switch 2 drops to the high teens
>>730693150Elden Ring is not on it yet because of extensive testing and building that has to be done for it’s less than capable hardware that the ps5 currently has no issue running
>>730693123>>730693187>>730693348Nice sametrannying, Eric. Your Zelda seethe thread died ;)
>>730693235im thinking of selling my DDR5 RAM, but I actually want to play gamesfuck
>>730693421so GTA6 isn't on PS5
>>730693187It's just a bogeyman invented by mentally ill nintengroids.
>>730693801t. Mentally ill nintengroid
>>730693698this might have worked if there wasn't 10 years of the sperg spamming every day with all of trips
>>730693559Yes for the same reasons. However a ps5 can already play Elden Ring though
>>730694285with constant framedrops despite using goyscaling tho
>>730694285but not at 60 fps while PC does it effortlessly
>>730694783PC version has micro stuttering, I wouldn't call that "effortless."
>>730694924>it has schizobabble works on my pc silky smooth 60 fps without a stutter anywhere
next console gen is $1000 dollars minimum, poorfags are fucked
>>730694991>the PS6 will be at least $1200 for the base model >it will still have zero games >because its a half-baked handheld it wont have a disk drive so it wont be backwards compatible with the PS4
>>730694973What settings and resolution if you dont mind
>>730695084you forgot>will still sell millions
>>730695164higher than anything the ps5 can run it
>>730695084>schizo is posting headcanon againPlayStation haters are a sad bunch.
>>730695084>>730695176Playstation has essentially taken over the high end gaming market for consoles. Its not even close. Nintendo will persist in its own regard but Playstation is the ruler of where the home console wars once happened. Its the go to traditional home console now.
So what happened with the other week of Famitsu’s numbers? I thought we were getting the two weeks before last weekend?
>>730694973Cool, I can do the same playing the PS4 version on my PS5, sans the micro stuttering.
>>730695258>schizo headcanon you missed sony cultist, the schizo headcanon is here >>730694924 babbling about made up "micro stutters"
>>730695254So youre running it at higher than 1512p to 4k dynamic at 60fps?
>>730666356so, me not buying will further damage nintendo? that's great news
>>730695295>lost everything >starts up the "i-its high end!" cope
>>730695409Yes, high end gaming is a market that Nintendo can't really serve like Playstation can
>>730668019Add GameCube to that list
>>730694924>>730695258>>730695295>>730695315>>730695352Nice sametrannying, Eric
>>730695409>about to pass 100 million units sold through>this is somehow losing according to schizosSony derangement syndrome.
