>Do everything right>Lose moneyexplain this
The video game industry has been slowly bleeding out for years now. It was only a matter of time.
nononoyou don't get off the hook so easy takashit>>738318629
O boy another schizo larp melty
Consoles have literally always been sold at a loss. How young are you?
>>738321270>Mochizuki TakahashiWarning, this faggot puts out bullshit articles about sony and nintendo for clicks and money. DO NOT TRUST ANYTHING HE SAYS.
>>738321270They have done everything wrong. They're banking entirely on their braindead zealots consooming without a second thought. Then after they buy they realize there's no fucking games so the attach rate is abysmal and the stock is in the toilet.But don't worry, miyamoto is jerking himself off over shitty movies instead, that'll turn things around.
>Yes, they’re doing well, but the stock price!
>>738321559It has games like Bananza and MKW and plays a bunch of Switch 1 games with better framerates and resolution, it's actually great
>console sold at a lost which was how it used to be>Nintendo well known for software salesThey should just buy up all of the stock from the nay-sayers and hold a larger majority. Stock holders are a plague on this planet anyways.
>>738321270>do everything rightdoes suing everyone everyone really count as the right thing?
>>738321270It’s the greatest console of all time. Weird because it doesn’t have Expedition 33 yet (the greatest game of all time).
>>738321270goodalienate more potential customers
>>738321270It might be an unpopular opinion, but I think investors and stockholders should be killed.
>>738321270something something leading loser
>>738321270>you don't own your console or games>fake physical copiesyou tell me anon. . . why didn't it fail?
>>738321595Thats pretty common for investing assurance. See;>be nintendo>fastest selling console ever heh>software sales on exclusives are barely hitting a quarter of your total user base, maybe a little more depending on the game>share value is going down monthlyThe real retarded shit to point out here is that 20 or 30 years ago the solution would be drop prices, build good will, & that would still be the move were it any other industry so instead theyre raising prices to make it seem more illustrious and prestigious. This is a marketing tactic that beers invented by the way to make poor people feel richer
>>738321369Not Nintendo consoles.That was literally their whole pitch to investors starting with the Wii"We're not in competition with Sony or Microsoft, we sell toys and we sell them for a profit"
They sold the Wii at a loss, too.
>>738321997at least I own my physical wii games, and my download virtual console games that are still installed
>>738321754seethe harder palnigger
I support Nintendo switch one only because I can still own physical copies of my property that I purchased
>>738321754if everyone sued Nintendo we'd win
>>738321997What? Wii was their first console NOT to be sold at a loss.
>>738321997Wii was a strange case where despite all signs pointing to how the core audience should just be buying a wii and two games like mario and zelda, getting wii sports for free on top of that, and then playing those titles forever and actually losing nintendo money in the long run, instead the console somehow picked up this audience that purchased giant libraries of random shovelware titles like just dance and a boatload of extra controllers, year in and year out, and printed money against all rational advice.
>>738321595Nintendo's stock price is simply correcting to realistic levels. The switch was a massive success, so the switch 2 made investors all want to buy and drove up the price. Then it didn't sell as well as the original switch did.It shouldn't be a surprise either. The first switch got a massive boost from BotW, which was already on the WiiU (a console few people owned) and being called the best Zelda game yet by lots of reviewers and fans. Plus, it got another giant boost from covid, in addition to the console being a replacement for the 3DS as a mobile platform and being seen as an extremely convenient console for adults on the go (which is what all the ads showed). Switch 2 has literally none of that going for it, and is debuting at a time where consumers are buying fewer luxury items of all kinds.
>tendoidsWho cares?Not like they have games worth a shit unless you got sucked into the non-functional autismo crew during your single digit age
>Takashi Mochizuki
You VILL not buy good quality hardwareYou VILL sign up for the live service cloud gaming slopand you VILL like it.
>>738321559The switch to movies is pretty damning. Nintendo is experiencing what sega experienced decades ago. They dont have any more ideas and the only people who value their brand will die soon anyway. Nintendo probably has one more console to release and then they'll back off and just make games and movies desperately trying to claw at the chance of grooming kids into worshipping them like they did 20 years ago. Sad shit man
>>738321968Investing assurance means nothing. Sony's stock price has been in the gutter since forever.
>>738322530Notice how many anons are falling for it. This is the level of "intelligence" the average modern internet user has.
>>738321270i dont understandthe shareholders are pressuring them to increase prices for what purpose if it sells gangbusters already?
>>738322617oy vey what you just said is antisemitic
Not my problem. Make games your hardware or fuck off.
>>738321270>>738321349We need another video game crash
>>738322617They think that Nintendo are selling them at a loss because of the ram crisis when they haven't even reached the end of their contracts for parts yet.
>>738321270>explain thisOk, here goes: Snoys like you OP have been eternally mindraped since Switch launched. Now you are getting spitroasted by Switch and Switch 2, so you are spamming erroneous articles ahead of the quarterly report in 2 days when you will get gaped again.How pathetic.
>>738321270Nintendo deserves to suffer.
>>738322601Sony has other things from a 40 year legacy its doing to keep it afloat. Nintendo is breaking into other things. I'm not saying nintendos gonna die or whatever over it. That very rarely happens anymore
>>738321270>poketopia and the mario galaxy movieWhat in the tallageda nights?
>>738322617They assume it will keep selling gangbusters even with increased price = more profits.Nintendo is based for not caring what investors think and putting the customer first.
>>738322746>Sony has other things from a 40 year legacy its doing to keep it afloat.Problem is other than insurance almost everything is in the gutter.
>>738321270Pffffhahahaha oh no no no no
>>738322734I'm not a tendie but Nintendo is one of the only companies still putting out fun games out there so it's definitely sad news to me when they start getting pushed around by current market conditionsWhat games am I gonna emulate if they're gone?
>>738321968If the issue is software sales then they should try making good games instead of raising the price on a console with nothing to play on it
>>738322871Read >>738322530>>738321376
>>738322792yeah i genuinely don't know or care if that's a shitty tweet or a real sentiment from retard investors
>>738322904>still putting out fun games
>>738321270>fastest selling console EVAR!It's the first console that isn't supply constrained. Extremely fast sales for ~3 months then it has been lackluster ever since (losing to the fucking PS5 over November/December which are the huge console sales months)
>>738322995>You shitting yourself and screeching IT DOESN'T COUNT REEEEEEE doesn't change realityThis is the exact same cope ps5 snoys cried and it didn't work.
>>738322989bananza was funpikmin 4 was funbowser fury was funtotk was fun
>>738322904Nintendo hasn't made anything good in over half a decade. All their good games are easily emulatable or even have ports.
>>738321369There's a difference between $300 console being sold at a calculated $100 loss, and a $500 console being sold at a $500 loss because of a fad.
Let's see what the investors think when GTA 6 and COD has been confirmed for day 1 and after Nintendo's general direct, whenever that happens. Overall investors just cares about themselves and their profits right now so they can sell or HODL until they can sell.
>>738323081Probably because the holidays are way more important than your cope over dead months.
>>738323081>Why are you posting the sales for the most important months?Because well over half of console sales occur in November/December while almost none happen during January-June
>>738323096Except it's a 450 console being sold at a profit with journalists claiming that it's being sold at a loss.
>>738322954It's fromtTakashi mochizuki who keeps writing bullshit for clicks and money. He's one of the dumbest "journalists" working for bloomberg and writes down negative articles without any sources about both sony and nintendo.Also I've noticed the other thread is gone now. How very interesting don't you think?
>>738323160>More PS5 games than Switch games>Like 4 or 5 Nintendo consolesnani?
>>738323059Only one game you listed was a Switch 2 game.>>738323154Keep coping just like snoys did, retard.
>>738323154You are so damn mad. Your tears are delicious.
>>738322995I have no idea what you're referencing, schizo
Seriously tho, what did Nintendo do to this faggot lmao
>>738323245Ok? We're talking about vidya here and I want them to keep releasing quality vidya because I win as a gamerHow is this so hard for you to understand?
>>738321270>>Do everything rightthey made a smash bros machine with no smash bros, how is that doing "everything" right?
>>738323258But you're the guy calling everybody Eric. Who do you think you're fooling?You're litterally spamming posts on cooldown, like right here >>738323285
>>738322530>If Nintendo seeks encouragement, it may find it in the PlayStation 5 example. PS5 and PS5 Pro sales regained their footing in Japan pretty soon following their price increase last monthActual quote from him in the very article being referred to in the OP
>>738321270I can't think of a single goddamn thing they did right. They're just banking entirely off their brand and the gullibility of consumers.
>>738323353I'm talking about Mochizuki you dumbass, every single Nintendoom article as of late has been done by him.
>>738323160>tendies never got gta 4 or 5 but somehow believe they will get gta 6
>>738321270Won't anyone think of the poor shareholders!?
>>738321270Switch 2 has only sold good in japan.It has sold like shit in the west because of the price. Only the hardcore tendies bought it day 1. Normies ignored it.In sweden it has been selling so bad some stores sold it for 300$ in sales. Thats when i bought mine. Even the games have the same problem there. .
>>738321270>(((kike))) investors demand a price raiseThat's absolute fucking sales suicide. That's a great way to let the goddamn console not get purchased and to have it languish on shelves. Fire Shuntaro "Eurokike Pokéfaggot" Furukawa and his kike "investor" masters that are the real ones in charge and put them all in fucking prison where they fucking belong.
>>738322846>still eclipses nintendo by about 68 billionWhy make stuff up?
>>738323293>and I want them to keep releasing quality vidyaNigga it's been 3 years since their last good game (TotK) and before that it was 6 years (BotW). They literally haven't made any other good games.

>>738323794It's Friday.
>>738321270
>>738323585Deen is a tendie. Raising prices is literally the opposite of what he wants, which has always been for Nintendo to stop being moneygrubbing jews.
>>738322671Needs an entire economic crash. Teach these fuckers that infinite growth is not possible and that one market or another has to give. Unfortunately the "responsible" people of the WEF will make the entire world suffer while the elites aren't bothered in the slightest.
>the eric spammer is the fag posting bluesky tweetsThis guy actually can't get more pathetic.
>Shitting on Nintendo for being pro-consumer and not hiking the prices (like Sony did)Snoys aren't human.
>>738323851The fuck? I checked a couple of days ago and it was scheduled for tomorrow. How annoying, now I'm wrong.
>>738321270Nintendo is intentionally tanking their stock so they can buyback and go private. They have ridiculous amounts of money and don't want investors telling them what to do.
>>738323891I'm honestly starting to think you are a janny because they haven't permabanned you yet
post yfw you have a switch 2
>>738323734>
>>738323992Yeah Nintendo does this an awful lot, pretty much every time they've had an enormous dip they've bought back a pretty substantial amount of their own stock. Last big one I remember is their stock tanked after Pokemon Go was super popular because they said they weren't abandoning traditional video games for mobile
>>738323498>TotK>good gameTotK embodies damn near everything wrong with modern Nintendo and people buying that slop was just another flush down the toilet.
>>738323748>Changing the goalpostlmao

>>738323967>the company that never drops the price of it's games is pro-consumer
>Twitter screencap>Yet another fucking thread of schizos and retards screaming "ERIC! TENDIE! SHILL!" ad nauseam.
>>738324034
>he arguing with random screencaps he took a year agoI was wrong. He actually can get more pathetic.
how can this be true when EVERYONE is BUYING it?
Nintendo SHOULD raise prices. Video games operate as a free market (for now), so we have a right to refuse Nintendo. Nintendo will see what happens when they follow the Sega model. Then again, it’s 2026 so it’s not going to remain a free market for long, but right now we can take advantage of our market power by simply not buying.
>>738324056How does nintendo sell these guys the same game each time and make them say “this is the greatest game of all time”
>selling the console at a lossFake news. This only applies to Japan. The NSW2 is already extremely expensive everywhere else in the world
>>738321270>selling the console at a losshow? that shit has $20 cpu.
>>738323989It's Friday Japan time. It think it goes late Thursday PM in the US.Pre-2020 the nips got the report out ~2 weeks after the quarter ends. Now they take a full month and change.
i diagnose /v/ with nintendeen derangement syndrome
>>738322904>I'm not a tendie but Nintendo is one of the only companies still putting out fun games Out from under your rock you fucking tendie
>>738324095They do sales on eshop all year round. Why even lie like this? Are you retarded?
>>738323967Are you surprised? They immediately jumped to Sony's defense here when it looked like they were introducing mandatory 30 day check ins on games.
>>738321270>The Switch 2 has hits like the Mario Galaxy movie
>>738324064>TotK embodies damn near everything wrong with modern NintendoIt was an actual game. Not an $80 repacking of Mario Kart or Mario Odyssey or Metroid Prime (reddit edition) or the same fucking Pokeslop we get almost annually.
>>738321270they forgot to make games. you need to make games for people to buy. people can't buy games that don't exist. making money off of hardware is difficult now, so it's extra important to actually bother to make games for people to buy. Nintendo were way too shortsighted when they decided not to make any games for Switch 2, they forgot how important it was to ensure games were made
>>738324253i'm a newfag, who is Eric?
>>738323217The Japanese language only Switch 2 likely is being sold at a loss, but it's also only being sold in Japan, so there's that.
Switch 2 must cost like 100$ to produce... how are they losing money?Thy are literally using a 17$ LCD screen in it that has 100ms input delay.
>>738324183>Video games operate as a free market (for now)because at some point in the future you will be forced to play videogames?
>>738324325I think they mean company wide hits and not just the switch 2. Also I want to fuck that ghost
>>738323225November has black Friday and is the month before Christmas Definitely a buyer's month
>>738324085You didn't even try to refute my point, you just coped.
>>738324347NTA but TOTK was a $70 DLC for BOTW that was a downgradeHyrule is less interesting to explore but you get a literally empty inverse underworld and a handful of sky islands
>>738324034>Have a Switch 2, a PC and a PS5>Can play any game I want, any way I likeFeels good
>>738324361They just released one of the biggest games this year like a week ago.Switch 2 is the fastest selling console of all time.Seems all is well.
>>738324371No one knows
>>738324347It was a $70 (now $80) repackaging of BotW
Mindlessly raising the prices isn't working out too well for the PS5 so far.Look how it's doing in Japan.
>>738324229The RAM is like $400 thanks to (((data centers)))
so many disinfo threads lately.
>>738324371>>738324461Eric doxxed his youtube channel while shilling Mighty No. 9 because he thought MegaMan 11 was Switch exclusive. He's been seething ever since.
>>738324435they should have made way more games. They have so much money right now after the switch was so successful. It's really depressing that they decided not to invest any of that money into developing new games

>>738324570Read >>738322530>>738321376
>>738324393The free market could be ruined by two reasons, both of which will happen in the near future:1) Game makers collude to inflate the prices of all hardware (consoles and PC) so that people can use all of their disposal income on plastic crap instead of housing and raising children. They will see the declining birth rate as a perfect opportunity to “increase revenue” since you no longer have to afford a child. 2) They will use laws to close the few remaining “third places” so that video games are the exclusive social medium of people aside from social media, then raise prices accordingly as per #1 (these two strategies work out well). Most fast food/cafe chains are already eliminating social spaces and local businesses can’t afford to stay open for much longer. This is why almost every kid plays Fortnite or Roblox.
>>738324689Nintendo hasn't made a game like pokopia in the present. They just slapped their brand on top of another dev's work. Which is likely why it wasn't complete trash like all nintendo's other offerings these days.

One of the more harrowing realizations I've had as an adult is that investors aren't smart. They run everything based on vibes and 5 minutes of a segment they saw on the news last night, maybe a search from google. And they basically control which companies live and die.
>>738324385It's also being sold against a weak yen, so it's very important that the Japanese region Switch 2 continues for two reasons:1. It continues to be affordable in their home market.2. It doesn't bleed more potential profits to other parts of Asia, such as the China, where regular non-JP Asian Switch 2s sold in Japan at a "premium" are still sold for massive profit en masse overseas.I wouldn't expect a price increase for this version of the Switch 2 but I wouldn't be surprised either.As for the rest of the world, it's clearly just a matter of time.

>>738325307It used to happen in the early 90s because of the sillicone "crisis" but then there was a period of about twenty years where consoles routinely went down in priceNintendo two generations ago was fucking insane with their price slashing, you could literally get 2DS systems with Mario Kart 7 pre-installed for $70, and the New 3DS models weren't that much more expensive and also came with their own goodies like removable faceplates and carrying cases and special AR photo cards and all that fun stuffThe Wii U saw aggressive price slashing too and had just the most incredible bundles you could possibly imagine, we're talking like a Wii U with Nintendo Land, MK8, and Pikmin 3 altogether for less than $200Of course that's because they were fucking desperate during the Wii U / 3DS era but I genuinely wish I'd bought a few more 3DS systems while they were so cheap

I just like being a nigger just to make someone else mad.Trust me, you really don't want to be in that shitpit.
>>738322904What bullying anon? Nintendo just rebuys their stock once it dips. This is a very common. Nintebdo knows their earnings is from hardware and software, stock is irrelevant.
>>738325324literally me but no fagboxim just getting the gabecube and dropping out
Pretty funny how we Switch 2 went from being "overpriced" to the most entry level console thanks to the price hikes the other 2 consoles got lel.
>>738325631Newer Pokémon games are the most sold in the franchise, so yes they definitely put customers first even though you hate it.
Oh yeah. We should get an explanation for why they are doing down charging digital games now.
>>738325753The actual price is all that matters, not the competition. Nintendo's competition is me just playing my backlog and emulating older games for free for the rest of my life.
>>738325208>PS4/PS5 lost to a system without GTA 4 or 5You forgot the ps3
>>738325658The people who still suck off Nintendo no matter what are despicable retards and it's cathartic to shit on them.
>>738325548Your argument was "Nintendo releases the same game over and over" but pokopia is not one of them
>>738325631>refuses to release anything other platformsjesus h. christwe've officially reached the point of having /v/irgins unironically saying "exclusives is a bad thing"
>>738321270It’s in the article. The place it’s selling the best is Japan but that’s also where they lose money on each console sold since the price is very aggressive (it’s like $315). That’s why investors are depending a price increase for the Japanese model
>>738325797When you sell dogshit then switch 2 selling catshit I guess you can call that an upgrade. If you want a real “monster fighting” game try Mobster Hunter 3 Stories. That’s an actual good game and not kiddie slop.
>>738325571Here in the Netherlands they were still selling 3DS systems in our Mediamarkt stores up until COVID. That's how I got my New 3DS XL, my original 3DS was all rickety from me using it to play Smash Bros and Resident Evil for hundreds of hours. That was an upgrade worth having because I loved the 3DS software and just wanted a good upgrade at a decent price.I have zero desire to own a Switch 2. There seems to be no real innovation either with the hardware or the software!
>>738325890So basically you're saying you'll suck anyone's cock if you think it'll anger Nintendo and their fans.

>>738323363Holy fucking shit that is hilarious.
>>738322734
I wish Nintendo would make more games. Switch 2 has been really disappointing so far, especially with how many of the releases are Game Key Cards instead of real physical releases.
>>738326010Basically I'm saying tendies are fucking retarded and deserve to be shit on, but if you want to think about sucking cocks, you go right ahead.
>>738325421TBF they launched in 2020 and in 2021-2023 we had insane inflation and now in 2026 we're having major shortages of components due to data center demand

The switch 1 was affordable, this is just bullshit pricing designed to take advantage of the pay piggies.

>>738326339>And don’t forget to pay 9.99 to upgrade your Zelda to HDRI'm shocked that more people aren't mentioning thisWhy do we have to pay for game patchesNo, it's not any better than Sony games make you pay for patches sometimes eitherIt's just an extremely fucked practiceAll hardware upgrades should be free since I bought your hardwareI don't mind spending a premium on your hardware as long as it's all-inclusive, but as soon as I learnt that they were pulling this nonsense, I refused to buy a Switch 2 unit
>>738326432That's the gay porn on your screen, dude.
>>738326263There was a leak from a Vietnam manufacturer that the Switch 2 cost $340 to make. The Japanese price is 50,000 yen which is around $315-$320 depending on the day. So Nintendo is losing money on each console sold in Japan and that is its best selling region for the last few months. Software sales have also been low compared to Switch 1 which is why you see retailers cutting price and Nintendo themselves offering digital games for a cheaper price. Nintendo isn’t taking a lose in total but their margins are really tight.
>>738326373Why do you people do this every time someone posts easily verifiable prices? It would take you 5 fucking seconds to just go “hm how much is Nintendo charging for these things” and google it but instead you try to argue with me. I’m not doing this again, you’re going say I’m lying, I post links from Nintendos own website showing MSRP and then you stop replying. You people are fucking insufferable.
>>738326527It's genuine shills using dishonest kike tactics.
>>738326487>What are they depending on it for? Is the company not making a profit?So according to you, yes, they are making a profit.
>>738326373What is wrong with you people?
>>738326117Bought a $500 Rog Ally X and started buying steam games that were on sale. Any PC handheld is miles above a switch 2 at this point. You can change joysticks, upgrade RAM. I don’t see the point in buying a handheld to play one shit Pokémon game.
>>738325980>Sony exclusives drying up >What games they did have are almost all ported to PC>Game gets thrown in the trash once someone else gets to play it besides them>Watch them cling to the few games that didn't get ported because they sold like shit>Exclusives take years to come out for the PS5 after being announced >"Exclusives are bad now! So give me all your exclusive games, Nintendo!">No >"MMMOOOOOOOOMMMM! NINTENDO ISN'T SHARING! IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR!
>>738326474That’s the shit that makes me laugh, the Botw patch is egregious because the game can already run at 60 fps, they just put a cap on it and force you to pay to remove it. It was such blatant jewery they ended up giving the patches away to nso piggies. Doesn’t change the fact they’re charging $80 for tears of the kingdom on switch 2 despite it literally being the same game as the one on switch 1.
>>738326474back when GTAV got its Enhanced version it was sold for PS5 and XS, but if you had the original version on Steam you just got the upgrade for free
>>738326474Nice to see people have common sense. Cheers mate

>>738325980Anybody who has realized that consoles are inferior hardware that only has value because of exclusives knows they are a bad thing. (things people have been saying on /v/ for over two decades)
How come Nintendo didn't make any games in the franchises people really care about? Like a Mario game, or a Zelda game.
>>738325494>>738325890>>738326106>totally not deranged btw>>738326117>>but anyone saying the switch 2 is affordable is insane.It is affordable unlike the lies you spouted.Internet faggots were already bitching about the Switch 1 being too expensive back then (since it was priced at 300 bucks for a "handheld console") and the games being at 70 bucks (solely for Mario Kart, Zelda and Smash Bros which is basically a repeat of the "games at 80 bucks") or the presence of "Wii U ports" too. Even then, you need to be actually poor like a NEET or third-worlder to find either the Switch 1 or Switch 2 not affordable.Nevermind the fags who complain about people buying third-parties on Nintendo too.
>>738326763Looks like he's winning.
>>738326846but they made a mario movie and are making a zelda movie! exactly what you wanted!
Have these dumb fucks considered that Nintendo probably got Switch 2 components at good prices for the foreseeable future? The Pokopia bundle releases in June and there's been no word on a price increase.Menwhile Microsoft and Sony already increased their prices.
There's something I fundamentally don't understand the Switch 2 that I want one of you techbros to explain to me.Since the Wii, Nintendo's strategy has been "subpar hardware compared to the competition, but this means our systems are more affordable and we can still make a profit on the hardware itself while also making big returns from our massive library of exclusive titles".Apart from the Wii U, which was simply a broken idea and too confusing for the mass market, this strategy has carried them extraordinarily well. Look at the Wii, 3DS family, Switch.Now, with the Switch 2, it seems to me like nothing has actually changed about this. This is the most powerful Nintendo system ever but it's still very behind the other leading home consoles such as the PS5 and Xbox Series X.So why is it, the games, the accessories, everything, so fucking expensive?! What's changed in their strategy? This is still out of date hardware that should be much cheaper and more available, right? If it's so much more expensive then why is that not reflected in the hardware and quality of their titles?
>>738326720Oof
>>738326412>I'm literally retarded and can't identify truth from lies please rape my face>>738326720Stocks have never meant shit. Until nintendo starts firing people they'll keep hiring and growing.>>738326893>my reality is truth

>>738326763You know he's that desperate that he has to search up tweets from a long ass time ago (only to get zero hearts kek)
Is this the new Snoytranny cope? The console is actually selling TOO well so Nintendo is now failing because they didn't raise the price of their consoles to $999 USD like Snoyshekelbergsteinwitz?
>>738326862You people are seriously pathetic. It'd be funny if it wasn't so sad.Nintendo doesn't give a shit about you. Stop being a miserable loser and go outside.

>>738326968You are literally too autistic and angry on behalf of a corporation that treats you like the retard you are to understand what an opinion or a suggestion is.
>>738321369IIRC, the last Nintendo console to be sold at a loss was the GameCube. Their consoles since then have been so outdated before they even launch that it'd be impossible to sell them at a loss because the components are so cheap, but that's over now with the AI faggots driving up costs for everything.
>>738327047>Stop being a miserable loser and go outside.That's my line fag lol

>>738321270The Switch 2 is not sold at a loss.
>>738327228>Give me (one) good reason as to why exclusives are good.The absolute state of the industry since they stopped being the norm speaks for itself. Turns out when all gatekeeping and any upper limit on a game's audience is removed, what happens is that the greedy shareholders start expecting the whole world to be your audience and you're forced to churn out the lowest common denominator slop.
>>738327335If tendies invested as much money as they did with a switch 2 into OIL they could have bought a gaming pc or steam deck.They are too Nintentrooned to understand logic because they have the intellect of a 12 year old Pokémon player

It's not even funny watching them meltdown, its just sad.
>>738326913ughhhhhh
>>738327228>Give me (one) good reason as to why exclusives are good.Depends on your perspective. Talking about gaming as a hobby, I believe appealing exclusive software drives sales and makes hardware more interesting and unique, and the increasing shift to multi-plat over the past few generations has made gaming less and less interesting. Very few games are truly exclusive anymore, which is why Nintendo still have an enormous grip on the market, they're basically the final holdouts since Sony put everything on PC and Xbox put everything on PC and PlayStation (lmao).As a business though, unless you're a hardware manufacturer like Nintendo, exclusives make very little sense anymore. Even for Nintendo, I genuinely do believe that even with their ongoing success, they'll have to go multi-plat sometime in next 10-20 years. Their model is looking more and more out of date with every passing year. Probably won't be that soon, but it will come eventually.
>>738323363At this point I'm convinced Mochizuki is a Keidanren shill
>>738321270>The problem is that Nintendo is selling the console at a loss due to higher costs for memory chipsThat's not true though. Not true yet at least. I mean chances are it'll true soon enough. And maybe the price will go up as a result. But Nintendo hasn't yet ran out of the memory they bought last from when the prices were normal.
Nintendo is too expensive now.
>>738327228>(one) good reasonC O M P E T I T I O Nwhy would multiple platforms exist if they're all the same?oh no, now we have only oneoh shit, they'll charge whatever the fuck they want, we have no choice, it's either pay up or find something else to dothanks, commie

They're good for anyone who wants to play a non-Nintendo game on the go. Basically any game you could imagine, except for the most powerful and demanding titles, work on the go.Of course tendies aren't interested in this as they'd rather play the same Fisher-Price franchises over and over again with very little innovation, but everyone else is eating good. Buying a Steam Deck was the best gaming investment I've ever made.

>>738326862>mario kart It was $60 on switch 1 >zelda It was $60 >smash bros $60 No one said the switch 1 was unaffordable I have no idea where you’re getting this, $300 was a very reasonable price for a console. The Wii U basic model was $300 ($350 for the deluxe), and the competition was $400-$500. This is why when they announced it the price tag was the thing they showed first and foremost. The switch 2 didn’t even get a price until well after the announcement. A switch 2 on its own is only $50 less than a ps5 slim and has more expensive games than the PlayStation on top of Nintendo openly stating they will never discount their games ever again. Really I have no idea why you’re in here making shit up when it is trivial to just just go on google and look up “Mario kart 8 deluxe MSRP” and see it was $60.
>>738321270The Switch 2 completely mindbroke this board, snoycattle now unironically think price hikes to appease investors are a good thing and Nintendo not doing so is somehow a problem.
>>738327885You wish that piece of junk made people seethe just like you seethe over the switch. No one cares about the deck and that's a fact that you'll have to accept
>>738327975Want me to post my BWC on my OLED 'eck?
Reminder that this fucker said the switch 2 was going to do a price hike back in nov of 2025 due to rising parts prices, but fails to mention that sony and microsoft were way more affected
>>>/vp/
>>738321270shareholder noticed that nintendo are struggling to get their games out at a decent pace. The big moneymaker titles like Mario, Smash Bros, etc. are now so difficult to make that they take over a decade for the next entry to come out after the previous one. Smash Bros Ultimate came out in 2018, and Mario Odyssey came out in 2017.Once upon a time Nintendo could reliably get a new entry in these series every 4 to 5 years or so on average. Now, in the modern day, both series will spend at least an ***entire decade*** without Nintendo being able to produce a new entry. This changes the calculus for investors a lot. If Nintendo can no longer produce the titles that sell well on a reasonable timeframe, that puts a pretty big limit on how much revenue they can generate from sales of those games. Consumers can not buy titles unless Nintendo are able to make them in the first place, so it's a big deal that Nintendo have found themselves unable to produce these games at anything close to a reasonable rate, now reaching a ridiculous point of less than once a decade.
>>738327885the hardware category is a flop without protracted first party support which is what handhelds live and die by. Sony learned this, brutally, twice in a row. Valve doesn't even support their own fucking store by releasing any games let alone their handheld. Excepting a bunch of cheap shit indie games made on shoestring budgets and a wish to fill the void is absurd.
>>738327454Proof of that in the current market? You know manufacturering, shipping costs and taxes have exploded, right?

>>738327394>Make use of hardware-specific features that not every user could be expected to have if multiplat (specific motion controls, mouse mode, GamePad, touchscreen, etc.)That's the only actual good answer. Too bad that there's barely even any decent gimmick games that make actual use of unique hardware coming out anymore. The PS5 has what, literally just Astrobot? Switch had ring fit and I guess Wario Ware Move It. It fails hards in comparison to what we had 2 decades ago. And even then, locking those games to specific locked timebomb hardware is a middle finger for consumers. Just look at how timeless clone hero is compared to the entirety of the guitar hero franchise.>When developers know the exact hardware configuration of their users they can optimize it and make use of the particular hardware quicks of the specific GPU/CPU that may or may not exist elsewhere.Wrong answer. Pokeshit SV ran so fucking bad on my switch that I straight up migrated to emulator. This is in fact one of the main reason why exclusives are fucking dogshit. If a game is exclusive and it runs like shit then FUCK YOU, there's nothing you can do other than copping that the corporation will release a next gen """upgrade""" in the future>>738327453That's not a good thing.

>>738327228It's always a hard cope over some magical platform specific bullshit, even when they get objectively the worst version of every game. Even with Wii wagglan, a PC can support every peripheral under the sun.Or it's a hard cope over pretending it's somehow competition to shield and lock games away from having to compete on an even playing field on an open platform.No matter what the cope is, it exists purely to defend buying redundant hardware that does nothing but take as much advantage of that cope as possible. The reality is people are simply tech illiterate and they'll jump through hoops to avoid simply admitting that.
>>738327885>Buying a Steam Deck was the best gaming investment I've ever made.t.Has no idea what investing is
>>738324361the average switch 2 exclusive is would be in the top 10 of the ps5, and unlike spiderman 2 and ghost of yotei, nintendo actually made money.
>>738328254Pokemon SV isn’t a great example because game freak are hilariously incompetent. They haven’t made a decent game since BW2.
it’s funny how Bloomberg has reduced its reputation to toilet paper because of this author when it comes to gaming news about Sony or Nintendo
>>738326720Isn't that drop the trend with pretty much every Japanese owned company right now? If the whole JP economy is tanking, how is it specifically Nintendo that is getting flak for it?

>>738328197no, it's more power efficientthat's all it really is
>>738328448switch 2 should have more exclusives, it's a total waste that they're not making games for it when there's clear demand for games on switch 2
>>738328197the switch 1 is more powerful than a deck. anyone shilling that piece of shit is genuinely retarded
>>738328458nobody cares about gayming news
>>738328368>on my PC fake fan, still time to delete this sis
>>738326527hard to take "honest prices" seriously when you list shit like replacement docks that only the most retarded of chimps would ever need because how the fuck did you break your dock? Not to mention all the lies about stick drift.

>>738327885lmaoo you really set them off with thisfeels good to be an ally chad
>>738328517what use is the power when you're locked into a walled garden environment and every game looks like animal crossing?
>>738328495>Nintendo was better when he was in charge tooI can't believe there are people who actually argue the opposite. That is what my bare minimum criteria for what a tendie is.
>>738321270Nintendo is the baby console. It's for small children. Small children's attention has moved to youtube/tik tok scroll slop. Therefore no reason for parents to buy Nintendo.
>It's only selling well in Japan!Meanwhile the UK aka Sony's strongest region:

>>738328517are you delusional?
>>738328495I don't believe you.
>>738328669you would think they would put tiktok/youtube on the switch already even the wii u had a native web browser
>>738328458>it’s funny how Bloomberg has reduced its reputation to toilet paper because of this author when it comes to gaming newsOh no, how will they ever recover from the loss of non-investors
>>738327228>Give me (one) good reason as to why exclusives are good.developer morale. when devs are making an exclusive they have to put real effort in making the game succeed, because it's the lifeblood of the system, when devs go third party their output immediately falls off a cliff because they have no real motivation anymore, just look at Sega's output after the Dreamcast died.
>>738328457>Pokemon SV isn’t a great example because game freak are hilariously incompetent.Anon I don't fucking care, it's still a great example as to why exclusives are an awful thing. Hell, there's also No more Heroes 3 which I sadly had to endure on my Switch because I didn't believe in switch emulation yet and I had no idea that a PC port would come out eventually.>They haven’t made a decent game since BW2.I actually did enjoy SV quite a bit thanks to it being an actual open world game where I could do gyms in any order that I wanted. But yes, you are correct. All of the other pokemon switch games were absolute bottom of the barrel and ORAS's battle frontier project bullshit still lives rent free inside my head
>>738328368Do switch 2 players wanna play Mario Kart World?
>>738328678You can tell this really sets off the usual suspects because they always try to draw your attention away from what the top game is and point at some other game lower on the chart selling better on PS5.
>>738328816Didn't work out for the Wii U and Vita
>>738328005They're literally shills, you can see every post where they lie about prices ad then get called out just to do it again in the next thread. Real jewish tactics.
>>738327885Feels great being rich enough to afford:Sony PlayStation 5Nintendo Switch 2Valve Steam DeckA high-end PCI don't know how you guys manage without a full palette of systems.Can you even call yourself a true gamer if you have only one of these devices?
>>738328729you need to understand Zimbabwe is a huge video game market, they bought at least 45 million PS2s* back in the day. *according to some random former Sony employee on twitter
>>738328473Don't deflect.Why shouldn't a publically traded company get flack for a 50% stock loss?
>>738328917Wii U had tons of good exclusives, what do you think they were porting to the Switch for its whole life?
>>738328982lol yes, how could we forget Zimbabwe, don't forget Congo, and Botswana
Is it just me or is Nintendo losing influence? It seems like every day more and more people reject them. I mean, just look at this thread.
>>738328998because Stock prices are imaginary bullshit.
>>738329078Name those good exclusives anont. Wii U owner
>>738328998Answer my question first. How is it Nintendo's fault if the entire economy of their nation is facing the same situation?
>>738325145Oh, so its stolen? Hey didnt nintendo sue palworld for "stealing"? Better lawyer up and get buckbroken i guess
>>738327112You're a retard if you think you'd beat a simple S&P 500 ETF.
>>738328801>the loss of non-investorsI'm a serious investor. I'm going to retire whenever I decide it's the right time to sell my 5 screw variant of Super Mario Bros
>>738328669Then why are they?
>>738328816>he says as random indies with tiny dev teams and a fraction of the budget make a mockery of nintendo
>>738328547Are you drunk?
>>738326527>Why do you people do this every time someone posts easily verifiable prices?Because it isn't.The fact of the matter is that they're using new sticks in the joycon and pro controller 2 as many, many teardowns have shown, they just aren't hall effects. The irony being that PS and MS use the same sticks but no one talks about it despite the rampant stick drift issues that have plagued their controllers since 2013.There's currently only one $80 game and it's Mario Kart which eliminates the final point since the switch 1 games can be purchased at their original prices.Nintendo do sales fairly regularly for events like anniversaries, holidays and so on.And there was no price hike on the switch 1, the price only went up in America purely due to the tariffs and it didn't affect any other region.Basically the only correct piece of information here was the fact that the dock was 125.But hey, all of this is easily verifiable information, but instead of taking 5 fucking seconds to just Google it you tried to argue with me.You're going to say I'm lying but you haven't even posted any links from Nintendo's websites or anything proving these items are the same and then you'll stop replying.
>>738322671Hope you like Madden
>>738328554Or, here’s a crazy thought, you have more than one TV and you want to have a second dock without having to unplug the other one. What’s in a switch 2 dock that makes it cost far more than any other dock while having ONE USB C port? Oh and of course they created a proprietary protocol to stop you from just using a cheap Chinese dock instead. >lies about stick drift???? They got taken to court over this and lost retard. How can you even deny stick drift being a problem? The switch 2 didn’t change anything about the design, it still uses the same potentiometers that are prone stick drift.
>>738329224Because they're gamers attempting to force their children to be like them
>>738326474>I'm shocked that more people aren't mentioning thisWhy would they? It's been like five years since that became the standard.
>>738329174Is this a bot response? They paid the Builders team to make a Pokemon game. It's literally the same exact people.
>>738329367So gamers buy Nintendo products, and the sales are currently high. Cool, thanks for the confirmation.

>>738328949Switch 2 and PC are the only gaming platforms worth owning. PS5 has no games and steam deck is just an overpriced emulation handheld
>>738321270Selling a product for less than what it costs to make means you're losing money. There are a lot of reasons why it's expensive to make a Nintendo console right now, but they at best should expect to not profit for a while. Maybe a Switch 2 exclusive Zelda or 3D Mario would help a bit.
>>738329557deck is a pc you fucking idiotif anything the form factor offers more than the handful of switch 2 games you can't emulate yet
>>738329360>They got taken to court over this and lost retardreally? post the case. and remember this discussion is about the Nintendo Switch 2, so your article better be about a case that happened in the last year, or you'll be confirmed as a liar.
>>738327885>They're good for anyone who wants to play a non-Nintendo game on the goThey're good for Nintendo games too. They've got like 99.99% of Nintendo's library.Honestly, the Deck is what consoles should have become, but these corporations are way too greedy and controlling for that. They won't go PC unless they're forced to.
>>738329568>Selling a product for less than what it costs to make means you're losing moneyand yet you'll be losing less money than not selling the product at all...
Oh no...
>>738327885I like how it pisses them off so much they couldn't help themselves and still had to prove you right.
>>738329360Shitty 3rd party docks were literally bricking Switch 1, is it wrong for Nintendo to try and prevent people from destroying their hardware?

Isn't the Switch 2's high sales entirely centralized in Japan? That's the cost of being a libtard (And I mean that in a commie way of saying it, not the /pol/tard/OANNslopper way of saying it)
>>738327885>Buying a Steam Deck was the best gaming investment I've ever made.Same. It fucking annihilates my backlog and I absolutely cannot go back to consoles now.

The fact you’d even try to argue like this makes you look like an unironic shill.>>738329745Okay? These components and specs aren’t any different from any other dock you can get. Are you just trying to waste my time?

>>738330048
>>738330058Snoys aren’t human. They celebrated PlayStation having higher profits than Nintendo thanks to hiking PS5 prices.
>>738330048in reality you picked the worse version so the price went downtendies are actively defending paying to unlock the performance of their hardware
>>738327885>What is it about handheld PCs cause tendies to seethe with impotent rage?i genuinely think a lot of them dont understand what they even are, or maybe they do understand and theyre just jealousits really funny though because i have a switch 2 and a steam deck. im mostly a pc gamer but i am also a lifelong tendie myselfits hilarious to see this forced ass rivalry between handheld machines and the switch / switch 2 because i seriously think owning both is probably the best way to game in 2026 unless you want to go all in on a massive computer which is very expensive nowadays
>>738330008>>Nintendoland>Low effort shovelwareStopped reading there. Nintendo is arguably one of, if not the biggest sign of Nintendo enshittification when you compare it to its Switch 2 equivalent Welcome Tour.
>>738330126It’s pretty obvious he’s just posting ragebait now.
>>738330038>These components and specs aren’t any different from any other dock you can get.Feel free to go ahead and prove it.
>>738322734YouTube needs to suffer as well
>>738330148>forced rivalryRemind me again who was it that insisted Deck is going to be Switch killer?
>>738330126>>738330185Oh hey, it's the twitter defence! Call everything ragebait because you don't have a real arguement. Doesnt change the fact that it's 70 though, does it.
>>738330148>im mostly a pc gamer but i am also a lifelong tendie myselfLet me guess... your current PC has a 1050? Lmao
>>738330048You moved the goalposts exactly as I knew you would. You retards are way too predictable to worth paying.
>>738322179Nintendo has literally never sold a console at a loss
>>738330195Or you can tell me instead of wasting my time making me read through a tear down article.
>>738330148>im mostly a pc gamerSure you are.
>>738330107Unironically the best thing Nintendo could do is keep buying their own dip until they go private, but that would be too based of them so it won't happen.
>>738330178Bro it's literally a game for toddlers. Even G&W was better as a showcase game>>738330178>if not the biggest sign of Nintendo enshittification when you compare it to its Switch 2 equivalent Welcome Tour.It's not enshittification, it's called competition according to exclusivity shills
>>738330259>if you pay less for the cucked version then it's not $80were you born this retarded or were you dropped on your head as a kid
>>738329762yes, that's the part i'm calling out as a lie. Switch 2 joycons are significantly larger and sturdier than the Switch 1 joycons, so obviously there were design changes. them using the same technology isn't an issue because literally every joycon on every console uses that tech.
>>738330241?? i have no idea what youre talking about, i never said thatif someone above me said that then thats stupid because the deck has a much more niche market obviously lolbut thats not what im talking about, im talking about the experience of having both, i dont care about sales>>738330262nah i have a 3070, which i guess is also a stereotype lol>>738330328what makes you doubt me??
>>738330304In other words, you can't.
>>738329528The problem is, there were months upon months of nothing between those.Switch 2 already has half as many exclusives in 1/6th of the time
>>738330259You posted the switch 1 game, we’re talking about the switch 2 edition. Either you’re deliberately being retarded for (You)s or you think Nintendo charging $10 to remove a fps cap is justified.
>>738330241tendies?are you one of those schizos that misconstrued "we don't need you" as "deck is going to outsell the switch"?
>>738321270What a shame, I thought it was the fastest selling console of all time. MP4 flopping was bad, they need Duskbloods and Pokemon Waves STAT.
>>738329528Add BotW to the list
>>738330359>>738330441It's literally the same game lil zoom zoom. If you bought it at the higher price for the extra guides, lore and whatnot that's on you.
>>738330405Didn’t say it was you.Deckies spammed the board for months when Deck came out.
>>738330417I’m not playing this game, either tell me why the switch 2 dock should cost $125 dollars when it’s literally just a bog standard usb c dock or fuck off.
>>738326763Why does he hate Nintendo again?
>>738330442>tendies?Hahahahaha!Oh man, don't tell me you actually believe that?
>>738329940you could remove japan entirely and it would still have outsold the Switch 1's global sales in the same timeframe. (and that's including japan for the Switch 1).
>>738322671When that happens, games will emerge again in some form but it won't be more home consoles.It'll be Cloud Only, Datacenter whatever, and you'll have Digital IDs that tell you how many hours you can play per week, and you can't mod the games since they're not storedl locally, so you can't replace black voids with panties like you did before.
>>738330534nta but the answer is the r&d costsomeone has to foot the bill desu
>>738330589go on, post your proof thentendies are the ones that parse everything through sales so i have no doubt that's the delusion you're going with
>>738330534Okay, it's because according to you it uses parts that aren't in any other dock.You haven't proven otherwise after all.
>>738330446It is the fastest selling console of all time and first console in history to sell over 20 million units in its launch year.Most consoles (like PS5) never reach those numbers in their lifetimes
>>738330513And if I don’t want that shit and I just want to play the game at 4k60 like the switch 2 is capable of? Oh wait I can’t because Nintendo locked the ability to remove the 30 fps cap behind a $10 dlc. Kill yourself.
>>738330241Me. My deck absolutely slaughtered my switch and now all it does is collect dust and there's no way I could ever justify buying a console ever again.
>>738330441I thought switch 2 editions didn't count as switch 2 games but I guess it only counts when you want to argue about prices, huh? lol
>>738330513>same game>runs and looks worse and you need to be disingenuous enough to defend paying to unlock your own fucking hardwareso can you agree that you don't really own your console?
>>738330649>tendies are the ones that parse everything through salesThe people who historically haven't cared one iota about sales parse everything through sales? You're a riot little dude.Here's a hint, it was the only fanbase in gaming that care more about the company who makes their console more than the games they have for it.
I haven't touched my Switch 2 since the Xenoblade disaster. That whole thing, and the total lack of a patch to fix it, made me incredibly wary of any "updates" Nintendo is going to make going forward.
>>738330513>It's literally the same gameThe performance between them is different.
>>738330707Ok. Nobody cares
>>738330685>if I don’t want that shitThen why would you buy it period? Game doesn't change at a higher res zoomie, all the content is still the same.
>>738330441Switch 2 edition is just the Switch 1 game bundled with a $10 DLC. you wouldn't try and say "the sims 4 costs $1500" would you? because yeah, if you buy all the DLC that's what it costs.
>>738330614>replace black voids with pantieswith nopan*
>>738330837Then why'd you ask
>>738330784>who historically haven't cared one iota about salesare you going to pretend like much of the fucking discourse about the deck hasn't been delusional tendies gloating about switch 2 beating it in sales?
>>738325996>MediamarktNostalgic. Are they still around or did they go bankrupt in the pandemic
>>738330441>You posted the switch 1 game, we’re talking about the switch 2 edition.It's literally the same fucking game, the only difference is that dumb mobile guide and that's it. You don't have to buy it
>>738330889Didn’t ask for your life’s story
>>738330685>And if I don’t want that shit and I just want to play the game at 4k60Buy it on ebay then, nigga
>>738330924And the 60 fps cap
>>738330929>buying used gamesLiterally just a cucked version of piracy
>>738330905No, I'm just going to tell you straight up that they haven't cared about the deck from the very beginning.
>>738330905Much discourse about Deck was about how it’s going to kill Switch only for it to flop lmao
>>738330864The sims 4 isn't bundled with all its dlc. Hell, the base game is free. On the switch 2, if you want to simply make use of the hardware you have to spend $80 one way or another for these old ass games.
>>738330905>are you going to pretend like much of the fucking discourse about the deck hasn't been delusional tendies gloating about switch 2 beating it in sales?yes, absolutely. the deck needs to pass the Wii U before anyone will bother comparing it to anything else's sales.
>>738330961"m-muh 60...No, doesn't change the game one iota other than making it smoother when you look at it. If you weren't literally 14 years old you would know how little resolution and framerate matter.
>>738321634>Donkey Kong flavored Oddyssey>A straight fucking downgrade from MK8DX + DLCYeah. It's a fucking mess. I own one. I bought it for Prime 4 and Duskbloods. I'll buy Orbitals later this year to play with my wife. The console is a fucking dissapointing fucking mess. >Splatoon RaidersThis is the best they can do? Singleplayer Salmon Run?
>>738330991meanwhile >>738330993 and >>738331039you're not fooling anyone
>>738331027>if you want to simply make use of the hardware you have to spend $80 one way or another for these old ass games.no anon, the old versions still run on the Switch 2, and better than they did on the Switch. you don't actually have to pay the $10 DLC tax to play them.
>>738328504Anon it already has more exclusives in less than a year than PS5+Xbox Series X has accumulatee in the last 6 years combined.
>>738330905Nigga, almost every deck thread was sonyfags using it as a tool to shit on Nintendo.
>>738331058 >frame rate doesn’t matter!And that’s how I know I’m talking to a shill. No one who actually plays video games would say this.
>>73833105814 year olds are the ones who can stomach shit framerates and resolutions because of their imaginations, tendie
>>738330784>The people who historically haven't cared one iota about sales parse everything through sales?What fucking planet are you living on? You fags have a general every week for sales shitposting. You losers OBSESS over sales.
>>738330980Except the picture I posted are listed as brand new>inb4 "b-but they're lying!"cope
>>738321270ah yes my favourite switch 2 game, the super mario galaxy movie
>tendies spend months doing damage control for perceived low numbers for the switch 2 (even though they arent low at all and theyre just embarassing themselves)>the steam deck is mentioned and all of a sudden it becomes important that the built-to-order deck made for a relatively small demographic of gamers outsells the wii uLol, lmao even.Why argue with a tendie when you can just wait?
>>738331153>You fagsImagine thinking everyone is your boogieman.
>>738331039>nooooo why isn't a niche side project outselling the literal lifeblood of another corporationYou can't even buy a 'ick on 'eck anymore. Same deal with the steam controller going out of stock after just 30 minutes, Valve isn't aiming to sell infinite units of their shit hardware unlike the other 3 faggots.
>>738321664Nintendo doesn't sell their consoles for a loss.
>>738330905You cannot call out, reason with or expect honesty from these people. It's not how fanboys work. They will say anything without shame. You can run circles around them and soundly beat them in an argument and they'll go right back to saying the same thing in the very next thread.
Whats funny is im literally their target demographic.I was going to buy a switch 2 for myself and a switch 2 for my niece for her birthday.Know why I dont want to buy it? Because it has a terrible screen and battery life.I'll buy it when OLED and a bigger battery gets released.Nintendo literally hates money. They dont want my $2000+ I'm willing to drop, all because they were greedy on a little $20 difference on a screen, apparently.
>>738331270if its such a niche product, why are you butthurt that people point out it sold niche numbers?
These nintendo shills have to be trolls man. This shit is exactly what somebody would do as a parody of a shill.
>>738331132Everyone above the age of 30 doesn't give a shit either way because we played games with massive amounts of slowdown. You have to be a child yo actually value frames and resolution to that degree because children can't stomach anything below 60 due to most smartphones running at it.
>>738331230Valve fanboys started it with their "Heh, the Switch is DEAD now" rhetoric.
>>738331361why are you constantly bringing up sales as if that delegitimises everything that makes it good?
>>738331361I'm not butthurt, I don't even have an idea of how much it sold due to how little I care about it. My issue is how hard you subhuman cultists seem to care about something so pointless.
>>738331270>A sub PS4 powered device in the year of 2026 is almost as expensive as a PS5Whats the fucking excuse?
>>738331390so have you ever used a mouse on a 60hz+ monitorif not then you really don't get to have an opinion on refresh rates
>>738330905>are you going to pretend like much of the fucking discourse about the deck hasn't been delusional tendies gloating about switch 2 beating it in sales?Anon, every steam deck thread from the start was nothing but claiming how much better it was than the switch 1 and later 2. You couldn't even say you had problems with the ergonomics without some shitheel jumping down your throat and claiming you just don't like it because you're a tendie just like in this thread.
>>738331391>b-b-but he started it!!!Listen to yourself. This is schoolyard nonsense bro. Grow up
>>738331039The deck is not a console. It does not get ads out the ass or loaded up in every retailer that will take it. It is not the sole pillar that the entirety of the steam store relies upon like a console is. A console has to sell as much as possible or everything tanks with it. The deck could have sold a single unit and valve would've kept right on trucking. It achieved exactly what valve wanted it to by getting the foot in the door for pc in the handheld space, making linux viable and spurred on loads of competition.
>>738331132>No one who actually plays video games would say thisMajority of people that play video games don't care if the framerate is 30 or 60, that's a fact
>>738331480There's no online tax and games are literally free.
>>738330685>4k60>Switch 2lmao retard.1080p120 and 4k60 on Switch 2 are memes, except for the rare case of a developer outputting 1080p120 but actually lock it at 40FPS for an intermediate experience between 30 and 60 without stuttering.It's kind of crazy how much smoother 40fps feels vs 30 feels. It's at almost the logarithmic mean between 30 and 60.
>>738331492Case in point. Your only experience is with modern gaming PCs.
> The data from industry trackers Famitsu and Circana also indicate that the Switch 2 continues to sell faster than any other home games machine in history.Looks like the man who invented the “SW2 production cut by 33% from weak sales” abandoned his narrative just one measly article later lmao
>>738331578Moron
>>738331498yes, better on the inherent merits of the hardwaretendies meanwhile just argue sales and nothing elsethe switch 2 is objectively a shit console, shit screen, shit battery, shit ergonomics and shit soc and yet the only defense of it being shit is arguing about its sales
>>738331369Ah yes, the good ol "I'm out of arguments so I'm going to cry about tendies on a separate post"
>>738331072>rollslop fag thinks his opinion matterslollmao
>>738331432I didn't bring up sales anon, i've just been responding to people who did. my first post on the topic of the steam deck was here >>738331039 where i replied to an anon who brought up sales
>>738331498>Anon, every steam deck thread from the start was nothing but claiming how much better it was than the switch 1 and later 2You can say that and I can say every thread from the start got shitposted by tendies. Before the deck even came out they were trying to bury threads and get them kicked to /g/. Goes both ways. They are not victims.
>>738331578>it's okay to eat shit because that's all i ever ate and i would have to get some standards
>>738331664Always cracks me up when FromSoft fanboys self reportHow anyone could be a fan of a company that's spent the past fifteen years remaking the same game over and over again baffles me
>>738331731You mean like the vast majority of the industry for the past decade and a half, if not even longer?
>those low saaros salesOof, friday will be a bloodbath.
>>738331664>>738331731You niggers are gonna flip 180 overnight once it sells well and then claim victory for Nintendo.
>>738330991>No, I'm just going to tell you straight up that they haven't cared about the deck from the very beginning.Utter delusion at best, but likely just willful bullshit. Dunno who you're trying to fool.
>>738331731theyre the only ones making really excellent action adventure games anymorethey basically replaced zelda for me after zelda went full sandbox to try and appeal to zoomers
>>738321270is there any switch2 game yet that doesn't look like a cheap mobile game? DK looked interesting but after release everyone realized it's fetus baby slop
>>738331664Anon, unless you're excited to pay $100 for a fucking Worse Mariokart or for a DK game that's just more "YOU FOUND A MOON!" slop, the library is fucking garbage. Prime 4 is trash, Splatoon Raiders looks like a fucking joke [I'm an OG Splatoon fan, since the very first Test Fire]. Nintendo is DEEP into a dark era. We'll be luckier than lucky if the next mainline Zelda or Mario come out in a timely manner and don't suck total fucking ass.
>>738331837>actually everybody is a retard like meThis is what rollslop fags actually believe.
>>738331865I would buy all 3 of these games right now if the console wasnt garbage hardware wise.
>>738331650You're missing the point. There never were any tendies in those threads. You couldn't even talk about anything negative about it let alone say Nintendo was better in some way so no one bothered from the start.You basically fell for the most obvious act in existence fueling it with your own anger and jealousy towards another electronic box.You are utterly pathetic.
>>738331981see >>738331664
>>738322617Selling at a loss to generate an installbase is anti-semitic because it's a longterm strategy instead of a strictly quarterly one.
>>738331865Didn't you play Gradius so badly that you got called out on your own youtube channel?
>>738331981>$100 gamesDo you really think just repeating the same schizo babble constantly will somehow manifest it into reality?
>>738331686>and I can say every thread from the start got shitposted by tendiesNTA but no, no you can't. The archives do exist you know.
>>738331983>>actually everybody is a retardYup, because this is exactly what happened with the FFVII demake port.
>>738332035now this is just being fucking dishonest, you can pretend like this is some great fucking mind game by you consolecucks but it's notif anything you're providing reasons as to why consoles shouldn't even fucking exist, console warring is the biggest fucking hotbed of mental illness born from anticonsumer vendor lock in and childhood nostalgia
>>738321270i hope they raise the price so the value of my switch 2 goes up.
>>738324527>'''lately'''Try like the last 3-4 years.Snoys can't accept they lost.
>>738332174>great fucking mind game by you consolecucksWhat part of>You basically fell for the most obvious act in existence fueling it with your own anger and jealousy towards another electronic box.Did you not understand?It's not a great mind game, someone just went>they they're your enemyAnd you just accepted that information as fact and ran with it for years like a dog.
>>738332161Yeah, the archives do exist so your gaslighting can fuck off.
>>738332146Just facts you stupid fucking nigger. Worse games for more money is the Switch 2 strat.
>>738332169No it didn't. I thought it was shit then and I think it is shit now.
>>738332174>console warring is the biggest fucking hotbed of mental illness born from anticonsumer vendor lock in and childhood nostalgiaThen why do it nigga?You're literally console warring right now.
>>738332297>they're not your enemy, they're only trying really hard to be antagonistici don't care about your petty consolecuck squabbles, you all fucking suck and have those mentally ill screaming contests
>>738330980>used games are just like piracyyou read it here 1st boys
>>738332352>born from anticonsumer vendor lock in and childhood nostalgiathis doesn't apply to anything pc
>>738332146>anon is incapable of understanding people live in different countries than he doesleave your country and travel abroad a bit
>>738332345It took me 2 seconds to find one at $70 and I don't even live in America. Who exactly do you think you are kidding?
>>738332345>"I-It's $100!....in canada!"every fucking time
>>738332372NTA but as far as a corporation is concerned, it absolutely is and that's why they want to kill it off with digital. The only reason to actually buy a game when you don't have to is to show support for that game and the devs. Buying secondhand is basically just piracy for people too stupid to pirate.
>>738332424What? Anon, going>hehehe my platform better!In ANY capacity is console warring. Hell going by your own logic tendies wouldn't be console warring since they don't give a shit about Nintendo if they don't provide the games.
>>738332548You do understand exchange rates right? The same value is being asked for in all nations. My number is just bigger and scarier. You're being ripped the fuck off just as much as me. >>738332532You're a stupid nigger. Stupider than the other guy I'm replying to.
>>738332476>the economy in my country is shit and nobody takes my country seriously and that is Nintendo's fault!Shouldn't have voted the faggot who destroyed the bongland economy to run your retarded back water country then retard.
>>738332367If you don't care then why are you here squabbling? You're not exactly making yourself look better by console warring like this.
I'm actually in favor of the game keycarts. I dont really have a problem with nintendo handling the download and distribution of game data.After all flash carts can corrupt and then you can no longer sell it at all. I'm just saying, you're game carts arent forever like a bluray disc is on PC.I think game keycards are a brilliant solution to a problem with flash storage because you can sell it and transfer the license.That's 100X more freedom than steam gives you BTW.
>>738332372Nah, third parties were whining like that over a decade ago
>>738332616no, consolewarring is specifically centered around consoles, celebrating arbitrary restrictionspc is against those
>>738332678Anon, international commerce runs on exchange rates. You're paying the same price as me, just measured differently.
>>738332682>That's 100X more freedom than steam gives you BTW.your console is locked down and designed to kill itself if you try to take ownership with itmeanwhile on steam running games on any hardware you want and modding is a feature
>>738332617Sure buddy
Trump should have actually followed through on one of his deranged rants and nuked Canada.
>>738332372>playing games without giving the devs moneySounds like piracy to me dog
>>738332678i'm not that anon, i'm calling (you) out for being unable to think about anything outside of your immediate surroundings.
>>738332789>you wouldn't download a used car
>>738332757>your console is [fanfic]This shit again
>>738332762If it was cheaper in America, I could just spoof an American IP/E-shop account and save money by buying from the US E-shop retard. It's not actually cheaper, you just have better dollars. We are paying the same price. Me saying it's $100 is the same as you saying it's $80. They're the same fucking thing.
>>738332617>You do understand exchange rates right?Do you? Because 109.99 is about as close as you can get to 80 usd so you're paying the same amount everyone else is.The reality is that you Canadians used to get a pretty steep discount on games but now you're paying what everyone else does
>>738332803>outside of your immediate surroundings.That's strange considering I presumed you lived in a country on the other side of the world from me but don't let that stop you from seething.
>>738332757You can't sell your games on steam, On switch 2 you can. You can sell the license because its in the form of the keycart. I dont see why people think thats bad especially with high speed internet nowadays.That's where xbox went wrong, instead of doing everything digital they shouldve just transfered to a partial disc, partial game license system so collectors could have their cake and eat it too. So people can collect without feeling like they are losing something. Xbox should've done indie exclusives on disc releases in stores and heavily put money into that instead of pushing copilot shit.
>>738332919Yes, I'm saying that you fucking illiterate halfwit. I'm not exaggerating any claims by listing my local price. My price is the same as your price.
>>738332696>consolewarring is specifically centered around consolesIt's not you retard, it's not a console specific thing. If you're shitting on one platform to promote the other then surprise surprise, you're console warring just like the people you're shitting on.
>>738332901>fanficSubject to the terms of this Agreement, Nintendo grants you a non-exclusive, revocable license to use the Software solely on the Console for your personal, non-commercial use. For clarity, the Software is licensed, not sold, to you, and you may not make use of the Software except as expressly authorized by this Agreement.

>>738332919You are not supposed to point that out. $100 sounds worse so suddenly everybody on the internet is Canadian.
>>Yoshi's Woolly world>Shit game>>DK Tropical Freeze>Shit gameLazy bait, no (You)
>>738332963Your price was about 20 of your third world bucks more than what people paid for it in my country.
>>738332963>I'm not exaggerating any claims by listing my local priceYou are that's why you didn't specify it was in Canadian dollars in the first place.
>>738332682This has to be shitposting. And if it's not, Nintendo has outright said they are going to kill your ability to download their games, and anyone who thinks they won't do the same going forward is a useful idiot and cucked beyond belief.
>>738332975yes, it's a console specific thing you dumb niggerpc is inherently an open fucking platform and sony and nintendo still can carve their own fucking niches as storefronts out if they were to standardize
>>738331153A general snoys started btw. It only became a problem when they were no longer on top
>>738332937yeah, after your dumb ass had it drilled into your head because you got called out. i'm not even living over there, i'm just not a fucking retard and can ask myself "why is he saying it's $100?" and arrive at "it's because he lives elsewhere" instead of being so brain damaged that i think he's out to get my favorite corporation because he's a lying schizo.
>>738332942resellability is a fucking meme, just pirate if you're that money minded about your entertainment
>>738333109Go ahead and post proof of them saying that
>>738333109I can still download Wii games.
It is amazing the knots the internet is tying itself into trying to paint the fastest selling console of all time as a flop because they desperately wanted it to fail.
>>738333003
>>738333101Which doesn't matter because my bucks are worth less so the actual VALUE being talked about is the same. I just use more to get to the same value. >>738333103I don't need to. You're capable of seeing the number and knowing I must be Canadian or Aussie if I'm listing "dollars" or "bucks" and the number seems big. I actually enjoy it when you guys sperg and I can slam you with a screengrab from EB games.
>>738331153Anon if you are getting this tilted over objective sales data then the fault is honestly with you and your outlook on life.
>>738333170>after your dumb ass had it drilled into your head because you got called outMy literal first post was presuming he lived in USA. Following conversations isn't really your strong suite.
>>738333186Weirdos treat Nintendo games as appreciable assets. When they say it's resellable they mean in 15 to 20 years.
>>738333195>>738333204>Can users still play WiiWare games that they already purchased?>Yes. The ability to re-download WiiWare and Virtual Console games will also stop at some point. We will announce specific details as that time approaches.https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/27560/~/wii-shop-channel-discontinuation#s1q3
>>738333256>Which doesn't matter because my bucks are worth less so the actual VALUE being talked about is the same. I just use more to get to the same value.Holy fuck you are a retard.If you converted the price of the game here to Canadian dollars it would be $80.
>>738333003They have this agreement with every gaming platform including consoles that have been modded yet none of these companies ever did shit. You really wish Nintendo were the evil company you make it out to be
>>738333329throw up a link to it because all i see is you getting btfo by that guy posting it being over $100 for him.
>>738333131Tendies are the new snoys. A lot of them are literal former snoys. It's the same brand of retard shitting up the board.
>>738333425>If you converted the price of the game here to Canadian dollars it would be $80.Then tell me which country that is so I can pretend to be from there to save shittons of money. Of course you won't because there isn't a market on the earth where Switch 2 games costs 30%-ish less.
>>738333469Do you even know what you are arguing anymore?
>>738333275I don't give a damn about objective sales data other than it not being video games. But you know exactly what those threads are actually for.
>>738333462>my rights are theoreticalcool, by the same logic i can just crack my steam copy and give it to someone else and nobody will be able to know or enforce itwith the distinction that consoles ship with aggressive anti piracy and anti tampering measures so they have means to do something about you
>>738333357It's worth noting that they updated and reworded this page fairly recently too, so it definitely isn't something they simply said and forgot about.
>>738333527all i see is you evading an easy request
>>738333256>You're capable of seeing the number and knowing I must be Canadian or Aussie if I'm listing "dollars" or "bucks" and the number seems big.As usual you Americans are terminally retarded. Just because we are aware your dollar is shit doesn't mean other Americans are.
>>738333668You started this meltdown of yours upset that I presumed some guy was a burger and now you are asking me to prove I presumed some guy was a burger.You have literal brain damage.
>>738333742no, you stupid fucker. i said you were ascribing your local prices to him and not understanding that different regions have different prices. very low iq.
>>738333716I'm not American shitskin-kun. Stop posting. You aren't paying some special lower price for Switch 2.Either post the magical country you're from where Switch games are super discounted by default because Nintendo hates money or fuck off.>If you converted the price of the game here to Canadian dollars it would be $80.Remember this is your claim; that you live somewhere where something that costs me $109 is actually only $80.
>>738333621I still have yet to see nintendo bricking someone's console for installing CFW (in piratetroons words, "taking ownership")
>>738333621Here’s a fun fact tendies don’t like people bringing up. If you even so much as INSERT a mig flash into a switch 2 game slot, even if you don’t have any games on it, your console is banned. That means no internet connectivity of any kind and no GKCs whatsoever.
Being Canadian isn't an excuse to claim Mario Kart is $100 when posting on a website that is like 99% Americans. Especially when a good chunk of those Americans actually believe MKW is $100 in USA because their favorite griftuber told them it was.You knew full well what you were doing and you are now upset it didn't work.
>>738333932>I'm not American shitskin-kun>he doesn't know that Canadians are Americans>he doesn't know that white people exist outside of America Americans, everyone.
>>738333861>>738333932>Remember this is your claimNo that was my claim but don't let me stop you from having such a big sperg out that you posted the same reply twice to some random person thinking it was me.
>>738333958No one has made CFW for the switch 2 yet, the fact of the matter is the TOS clearly states Nintendo had the right to render the hardware permanently unusable if it detects the system has been modded. Why would they put that in their TOS if they didn’t have the ability to do it?
>>738334040Fun fact, any key you already downloaded still functions after a ban.
>>738334046NTA, but you're a faggot for not responding to him. Don't be a coward.
>>738334046Nope. I spoke my truth and now you've made a fucking retard of yourself because you're a subhuman shitskin. That's what it boils down to. You're too stupid and shitskinned and ESL to handle stuff so you're shitting up the white man's internet again. Fucking go rape a donkey or whatever you hideous mongrels do for fun in your shithole countries between getting bombed and starving. >>738334113Sorry but Canadians are Canadians. We're NORTH AMERICAN maybe but that's ever discussed. Only People from "The United States of America" are American.
>>738334168And that’s good because?… Oh and another certified Nintendo classic, if you buy a used game that someone dumped and they go online YOU WILL BE BANNED. This has happened already and the only course of action is calling up Nintendo support and hoping they lift the ban.
>>738334227>Sorry but Canadians are Canadians. We're NORTH AMERICAN>sorry but canadians are Americans, we're NORTH AMERICANthis is the same sentence by the way.In any case you're still the same retards as your southern counterparts
