Nintendo says first year of Switch 2 sales "far exceeded" their expectations.
>>738669863NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DELET DIS THIS IS A SNOY BOARD REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>corporation lies about its own performance to fool investors.this never happens and never will happen
>>738669996I hate you.
Oops.I thought you were a snoy shill.
>>738669996true. we saw it when sony kept magically pulling more ps2 consoles sold out of its ass every time Nintendo breached its total units sold.
>>738669863>estimate expected sales>divide it by 10 and write it down as the official expected sales>"holy shit guys sales exceeded expectations!">"yes we had more than enough stock to supply demand, but sales totally exceeded expectations!"This isn't just a nintendo thing btw, every company does this.
They're sprinting during a marathon. No one will be buying the Switch 2 now that the prices are gonna be jacked up by $100.
>>738670016>they hated him because he spoke the truth
>>738669863Sounds like a huge lack of foresight on their part, since they're increasing the price to cover 'production costs'
20m seems about par for the Switch 2 desuYes it's breaking records but the market is bigger than ever and there's no handheld competition
>>738670149Nintendo does have enough wide appeal to beat the PS2, their kiddie image will ensure they never quite surpass it.
>>738670586There is competition, it's just priced 2.5x higher
>>738669863Why'd they literally lower their sales expectations then
>>738670219Funnily enough, Switch 2 is still the most affordable piece of hardware around. And it'll continue to be as Sony pushes their $1000+ PS6 lol.
>>738669863It failed to reach 20m sales. It is an absolute failure and disaster for Nintendo.
>>738670936It has the worst versions of every third party game it should be the cheapest system
>>738670586>Okay it's succeeding but it doesn't count.
>>738670936>Switch 2You get what you pay for, 15 fps at 720p
>>738670661dumbass 99.9% of the pieces of shit buying/scalping pokemon cards are grown men in their 20's 30's and 40's bing bing wahoo flagship games sell 20 million. pokemonslop despite their terrible reputation still sells 30m per flagship seriesyou lost. it's over.
>>738670219$50>>738670586There's much more competition now than even before.1) There's more handhelds than even2) Other platforms like PS5 and Series X/S have already mature libraries that go back to 2014 and the games can be bought for cheap, and if history repeats itself, will continue to have games for at least 5 more years without the need to buy a new one.The competition is there. People just don't see them as an OR, but an AND. Or they just don't care about the missing third parties
>>738669863why are they lying
>>738671337PS2 was more dominating in its era than a switch will ever be. It was the defacto system with basically every game that had like 80% of the marketshare. That's not the case today, PS systems sell 100 million units they're not getting destroyed like gamecube and xbox did by the PS2.
>>738669863What happened to this? https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-03-24/nintendo-cuts-switch-2-output-by-over-30-on-weak-holiday-sales
How's your Switch 2 Catalogue going /v/ros? Excited for the FF14 beta coming this July
>>738671867>FFVII Rebirth>Star Fox>Splatoon Raiders>Rhythm HeavenDamn, all of this in two months and I still haven't played Pragmata.Feels good.
good for them? can we get some games now
>>738669863Say AAAAAHHHH
>>738671638Someone at Bloomberg "heard from a guy"
>>738671867Playstation-coded library ngl.
>oh boy nintendo must have so many games
>>738671638Take a guess.
>>738672109>no gay or pedo shit That's a good thing.
>>738672085>shareholders demand Nintendo raise the price of the console>Nintendo refuses but eventually gives in >shareholders sell their stocknever listen to shareholders proof #3539
>>738670762>>738671467I said there's no HANDHELD competitionDon't reply to me if you're a blind cunt, thanks
>>738672045>Damn, all of this in two monthsmassively downgraded game from last year on a gamekey card. and shovelware. you sure are drowning in games.
>>738672109Check where it says "All" in the image
>>738672206>shareholders demand [inane babble]The bad news just keep on coming.
>>738672372I always assume you're showing your best. Why else would you show me some multiplat slop?
>>738672359Jesus Christ, at least $500 for this?!
>>738672385Oh no no no, not the "boomers shareholders" cope getting thrown out the window...how will the averagetranny recover from this?
>>738672446there's no way to manually filter games shown unfortunately
>>738672359>PS5bountiful harvest>Shitch poonothing, go to bed with no supper
>>738671867>84 fucking games on a Switch 2
>>738672165Why does this guy even have a hard on for Nintendo huh
>only switch 2 exclusive i'm remotely interested in (including known upcoming games) is pokopia>i could just replay dqb2i didn't expect to reach a price hike before they had games that i was interested in but here we aremaybe i'm just getting old
>>738672567>averagetrannyWhat is this meme?
>>738672832Waiting for The Duskbloods too by the way.
>>738672318There are 5 or more hardware manufacturers making highish spec mini pc handhelds, don't act like there is NO competition whatsoever.
>>738673203Why are you replying to an obvious troll?
>>738673203Valve is the only one selling significant numbers and even then it's miniscule compared to Nintendo.
Switch 2 owners are simply happier
>>738669863>We sold too much! Now they're expecting games for it!>aiiiieeeee release a statementLol consoles are nothing but hype machines normaloids buy to fit in
>>738673421I can confirm that, have a wife, 3 kids, and both my parents and siblings are alive, all together, and blessed. Last pc I bought had a 3070ti and haven't used it since Elden Ring released day and a month, with a huge Switch 2 catalogue that I use daily.
>>738669996but enough about Sony.
>>738673587yeah absolutely all of that happened, PC totally got owned and lost :/ I'm actually going to sell mine now after reading this and rebuy every single game I can on the switch 2, thanks.
>>738670149I think Xbox is the only one that actually reports its console sales accurately. American government must just be more strict about that shit than japs or some bullshit
>>738673660I never said PC failed, well, it failed to me as I'm tired of trannycoded slop release day after day as "indie" , but you enjoy yourself.
>>738673421is this loli?
>>738673375Yes and the Wii U and Gamecube were still competing against the PS4 and PS2. One sided competition is still competition.
>>738671093>the worst versions and as long as it runs, no one actually care about it!
I returned my switch 2 yesterday, $684 credited back to my card. The screen is terrible for $450 and even the games don't run at 1080p.Maybe I'd buy the next model if they go to an 720p 90hz 7.5" panel and raise all games to 60fps.Its a shit console
>>738673928Sure buddy
>>738673928
>>738671867I had dozen of stuffs to pay and buy outside of vidya so I'm had to hold a little and only got stuff from sales lately but I plan to get FF7Rebirth and the Elliot game at release>Yomawari BASED CHAD!
Honestly even their first prediction felt a bit modest and then the fact that they upped it and basically hit their higher target with the recent report speaks to good planning. The real wrinkle is the September price jump but, shit, only so much any company can do against the people ruining the world.
>>738674208Why did you buy two versions of the disney collection?
>>738674208Atalier Ryza and FF5 (Black Maiden) run so fucking good , I have them, also noticed you had Neir, how does it run? Based catalouge
>>738674415 with all the games that we'll get, pretty sure it'll sell well even after the price increase.>only so much any company can do against the people ruining the world.sad but true. I wanted to buy a new SSD but it was so expensive that I'm searching for HDDs now. and even those are basically double their price. wish AI could get tired of the bullshit and just decide to seppuku themselves.
>>738674584If I had to guess one is probably the Switch 1 version and the other is the Switch 2 update version
>>738674584I bought the Switch 2 version and it let me download the Switch one for free so I just got it too lol >>738674691>how does it run?didn't tried it on Switch 2 yet but it run really well on Switch 1, to me it was one of the best ports it got. With the boost mode on Switch 2 it'll probably play well there too. too bad I doubt SE will ever release an upgrade patch for it.
>>738669863goysumers just need an excuse to spend their shekels, because unboxing plastic toys makes them happythe gabecube will sell a billion units, despite having no purpose, for the same reason
>>738669996> Original expectations: 15 million> Final sales: 19 million27% above expectations is pretty damn good.
>>738669863It's so funny how angry it makes some people the idea that the Switch 2 is actually selling super well and it's not another Wii U situation.
It didnt, wheres the big hits?
>>738669863>what is corporate spin
>>738669863I mean, they can say thatBut the numbers say otherwise
>>738673707Microsoft doesn't report console sales at all
>>738675656Funnier even seeing Switch 2 users showing they have a fuck ton of games on their library (20+ games is more than enough for example) while you have daily threads asking if the Switch has games
>>738672206>Nintendo refusesIt didn't, they actually tried double dipping by suing the USA for tariffs that didn't even affect them
>ninsped still mindbroken
>>738671867had the Switch 1 since 2020, and also two different accounts on the same console (Europe & Japan)It's literally Steam 2.0
>>738676458>Steambut with no bloatware
>They set a target for how many consoles want to sell>They exceed that target by selling more than expected>THAT'S A LIE! DELETE THISSSSSSS!
>>738671867for Switch 2, i have thesei also have FFVII remake and Pragmata on Ps5 en Requiem on Xbox but i like to double dip on the switch
>>738676458The difference is that most games run like shit, whereas on PC you at least have a chance of getting them to run properly.Ni No Kuni 2 is unplayable on Switch 1. On Switch 2, it runs at 60 fps, but at the wrong resolution (in handheld mode, 720p on a 1080p screen, which makes everything look even worse).And that’s all you can do right now. Either you hope the developers release a patch for Switch 2, or you settle for playing the game at the correct resolution but at 20 fps, or at the wrong resolution but at 60 fps. Those are your two choices.
>>738677035forgot the pic
>>738670109why are you a troon?
>>738677091Solid library, I'm personally missing Xenoblade X from mine
>>738677079Ni no Ku Ni 2 was patched and works as intended on the Switch 2 though
>>738672851He "leaked" some bullshit and nintendo basically called him a retard.
>>738677079i get what you said but you used a bad example lol, as other anon said, it already looks great
>>738677079>The difference is that most games run like shitNot on Switch 2 anymore and handheld boost mode gave the solution to run at higher resolutions. But I don't care that much framerate and resolution, the games themselves are what I care about.And I can have two separate regional accounts on the same Switch console (while still using my main profile - such as playing online in games I've bought from the Japanese Eshop for instance) meaning I have a wider range of titles than I would have on Steam.
>>738677321the 60 fps are great but the upscaling sucks, it doesn't bothers me, but a lot of people prefer the Switch 1 version using boost mode
eric suicide soon
What sort of psychosis does it take to have a thread like this? It’s the fastest selling console of all time so far, and that being more than they expected is causing some sort of mental collapse for anons in this thread? Unwell shit
>>738678476Is a subtle post your switch 2 library stealth thread
>>738669863The Switch 2 is jeet/v/'s 9/11
>>738678476I don't get it either. It's one thing to argue that the Switch 2's current success is undeserved (IMO it is) but denying it's happening at all and having some sort of psychotic break from it on 4chan. Nigga go play some video games.
>>738669863What terrible news
>>738678476It's not even /v/ anons. You see the instant the Switch 2 was announced with $80 Mario Kart people have been doing incantations at night hoping it will fail due to being too expensive. When you're desperate for something to fail you start to listen to any and all leaks and sources to affirm that worldview causing it to become twisted over time. That's why Nintendo griefing channels exploded during the first year. The issue is that every quarterly report invalidates that make-believe reality and leads to gender dysphoria tier breakdowns.
>>738674103Switch 1 games and pokopia doesn't run at 1080p. What's funny is its a 5 minute fix with a software update but they wont do that. The games look absolutely terrible on a 1080p screen they look blurry and unsharp even the textures look bad.They wont even implement an overdrive to fix the ghosting lmao.
>>738677091>plants vs zombiesDid they ever fix that rerelease?
>>738679294A simple quick search states otherwise btw
>>738669863>investor soothing lol
>>738670016I hate you retard and I love the anon you replied to
I want to think up how to sell more Switch 2s though despite the price hike.
>>738679798Two pack in games.
>>738679454Wrong, In handheld mode they do not run at 1080p unless its a few switch 2 titles like DK bananaza or metroid beyond even those do not even use 120hz which is embarrassing.Pokopia runs at 720p handheld and pretty much all switch 1 games run at 720p in handheld mode. It looks like garbage blurry trash, so much for an upgrade.If the main feature of the console which is portability is ruined because it cant use the hardware at 1080p and they dont care, its not a good console. Its why I returned mine LMAO and thats not even talking about the screen which was motion blur trash as my main complaint.
>The company also cut its sales forecast to 16.5 million units next year, down from nearly 20 million, but President Shuntaro Furukawa said the Switch 2 is selling faster than the original console
>>738680147 >>>738679454just stop
>>738670167except Nintendo keeps forcasting crazy sales, and then it keeps happening. they just said they expect like 16 million consoles to sell the rest of this year, anon.
>>738680228Wrong, you dont own a switch 2. Pokopia does not run at 1080p in handheld mode. This is a fact, Its a switch 2 game. I tested it, It doesn't run at 1080p.Also another fact, switch 1 games, most of them do not run at 1080p. So you're wrong
>>738679991That's a start. But how do we add more NSO subs? I thought about adding 30 day game trials back for Switch 2 software. Maybe 30 day trials of Switch 2 Editions of Switch 1 games can work. Welcome Tour and Drag X Drive should be free with Expansion Pass.
>>738669996lmao shut the fuck up eric you pathetic piece of shit loser
>>738680345>>738680228
>>738680369Release more games to play online. Smash, Splatoon whatever. Issue is that I don't trust the retards to deliver proper online infrastructure, especially for Smash, even if you literally pay them a monthly fee for it.
>>738669863
>>738678476NDS is very real.
>>738669996
>>738669996You do realize that's a crime right?
>>738679231The $80 Mario kart seems to be selling badly when not bundled.
>>738675889Switch has 10+ attach rate, Switch 2 has 2.5It is on the official Nintendo site. Just saying because it is tiresome people pretend Reddit subs are the norm.
>>738681238Obviously. It's a pack-in title. If you want Mario Kart you buy the Switch 2 bundle with Mario Kart. If you don't care about Mario Kart you get the Switch 2 without a game. The audience for a standalone copy of the game is extremely slim until they introduce a new killer app bundle.
>>738681492The way things are going I'm expecting a Pokopia bundle this Chirstamas, with a WiWa bundle for next year
>>738681492The bundle is no longer a thing. The only way to get Mario kart now is to spend $80 on it, and people aren’t.
>>738681427Switch has a4310t dttbs compared to 354911t already though
>>738675865Sounds accurate then,
>>738671867I have 66 physical and 129 digital games for Switch.For Switch 2 I have only 3 games - Fast Fusion, Prime 4, and Resi Generation Pack. And btw...>Phantasy Star IBased.
>>738675889Cherrypicked whales. Fact of the matter is that the Switch 1 had almost double the attach rate of the Switch 2 when at similar console sales numbers. This isn't very surprising as the Switch 1 had more games due to Nintendo leaning into its Wii U catalogue. The Switch 2 will likely settle at 3DS attach rates as first party game development slows down.
>>738682584>Phantasy Star IShould be only played on a Master System if anywhere. It's a technical masterpiece on the system it was made for but also very boring to play. I'd rather play Ys 1.
>>738682878Switch 2 plays switch 1 games genius
Why are people pretending literally all of the Switch 1's software doesn't carry over to the Switch 2?
>>738682878You already got a reply when you posted 20 minutes ago.
>>738683023>>738683112Why are you pretending that this is a meaningful defense of the terrible switch 2 attach rate?
>>738683112Or that many first party titles even got Switch 2 updates, but are still regarded as Switch 1 software sales.
>>738683160This is my first reply on the topic because I got curious. The Switch had a better attach rate in its day which isn't surprising as it had a much better first year.
>>738683179>tendies now counting paid performance patches as a reason behind the terrible attach rateI mean I personally thought people just didn’t want to spend $70 on indie-tier shovelware like Mario tennis but what the fuck do I know?
>>738683178you're the dummy who compared it to Wii U games
>>738683242nothing apparently
The anon saying attach rate is the same in all the posts mentioning it btw
>>738669863To be honest, I genuinely think you're a bad parent if you don't buy your children Nintendo consoles, they're the only console makers who design their products explicitly for children. My nephew has a PS5 and he's a fucking sociopath.
>>738684859I think that applies to anyone who owns a PS5
>>738684859Kids want to have whatever else the other kids have. Believe it or not that's not usually a Switch because their homes have only one system and that's a PS5 that they share with their dad.
>>738669863They predicted 17M and sold 18M, so I guess?
>>738676394Why is this message in English and not japanese
>>738669863Switch 2 is such a stupid nameThey should have called it the Switch NU (new)
>>738684859You're a bad parent if you let your kids play video games unmonitored, period.
>>738686103That's the problem, the console isn't bought for the kid, it's bought for the dad.
>>738669863Good for them, still not buying one.
>>738681427>Switch has 10+ attach rateNot in month 10
>>738686996It was better at least.
>>738687475It was better because you were literally forced to buy new games for it
>>738669863>Even we are surprised we fooled our early adopters.
>>738669863Suck it, Sony trannies
I'm getting my switch 2 tomorrow!I got these games too:>Mario kart world>Pokemon legends ZA switch 2 edition>Donkey kong bananza>Kirby air riders>Zelda tears of the kingdom switch 2 editionWhat am I missing?
>>738669996This isn’t Sony.
>>738688017Star Fox is $50 physical at some retailers right now
>by the time they release the OLED model the MSRP of the LCD will be $599
>>738688140Yeah but not out yet. I will probably get it and splatoon raiders tooAlso switch 2 games get cheaper in Europe if you wait a few weeks after release. I got pokemon legends ZA switch 2 edition for €40
>>738688017If you're interested in non-Nintendo games for it, Trails to the Sky 1st is pretty amazing
>>738688017Forgotten Land is better than Air Riders
>>738669863Nintendomination!
>>738671867Holy shit, i'll take a screenshot of mine when i get home.
>>738669863>we did better than ever in the history of our company>price increase because donald blumpf tariffed canada, and closed the gay of hormuzalways impressed at how corporations can just write bad fan fiction that works on everyone.
>>738689513The real reason is that companies are trying to snuff out local compute so they won't need to install spyware and backdoors on every single computer out there.
>>738688247Completely different games.
>>738686369They forecast the best first year of any console in history and still surpassed that, yes.
>>738671867I'm looking forward to star fox, glad I got a switch before the price hike. I prefer games on the switch instead of steam deck
>>738687872It was better because there were games worth getting excited about lmaoCute attempt to reframe the narrative tho unc
>>738669863The barrier 2 flopped thoughbeit
>>738690753Hmmmm no, your narrative during that timeframe was Sw1 was just nothing but WiiU ports. Nice job trying to reframe your narrative though.
>>738691174>let me tell you what you believe so I can better defend my favorite multi-billion dollar companyAnd to think your parents once looked at you with joy when you were born.
>>738671867Here's mine.
>>738691271/v/ doesn't count as therapy. Keep your childhood traumas to yourself.
>>738673780That's a 59 year old child, you sicko.
>>738691271You were just defending Nintendo by calling their SW1 games absolute bangers tho? What changed? I thought BotW gave you guys nightmares
>>738691616First of all where in my post did I shit on any SW1 games? I genuinely want you to explain to me what you think you read and then re-read my post.
>>738691831Well you certainly weren't praising Sw1 games in 2017.
>>738692247>let me tell you what you did so I can defend my favorite multi-billion dollar company Really? Again?
>>73866986310k sales in the first 6 monthstake that sonyggas
>>738692612Yup. Again. Do you have a problem with being held accountable for your actions?
>>738693223Aren’t you glad that we’re anonymous so you can hide after getting blown the fuck out like the little nintendicksucking bitch that you are?
>>738693223Bumping for mr. accountability anon here. Why'd you stop responding bud?
>>738669863far exceeded their expectations about how hard it would flop, damn that's bad
>>738689513>unironically defending a global economic shitshow caused by the greater israel planbruh
>>738693590Which part of this post proves me wrong? You spent years seething at Sw1 titles and owning two switch games doesn't disprove that. >>738694023I was in a different thread.
>>738671867I currently only have Mario Kart World that came bundled with the console (+ all other titles I had on switch 1, but those don't count I guess), so my first acquisition will be digimon story time strangers
>>738694528Lmao >okay so you bought these two switch 1 games day one and showed proof but my headcanon on what you said is still heckin valid and it needs to be so I can keep defending my favorite multi billion dollar company Do you hear yourself you coping sack of shit?
>>738669996Where's the lie?
>>738695252It's not a headcanon. I was here in 2017. Detractors were singing the same song and dance as you are now. Probably because you're the same people.
>>738695524I accept your concession tendie. You people disgust me.
>>738695639You'll survive.
>>738670016you opinion far exceeded my expectations thus i win
>>738669863Nintendo keeps winning
>>738669996Holy cope
>>738671583Prove they're lying
>>738695895>another headcanonGrim
>>738671867Nothing, It's all Wii-U/Late 3DS tier slop and AAA garbage, this generation is going to be awful.
>>738696551>He's gonna kill himselfFinally, the board will know peace.
>>738696551>mask already offJust admit I called your bluff and won.
>tendie let the mask slip
>>738671867My favorites are:>[Port of a 10yo game]>[Port of a 20yo game]>Heavily downgraded AAA slop
>>738696881Funny how these three describe TLOU perfectly.
>>738671867Yup.
>>738671867>>738697217normalfag shit, no wonder /v/ loves it so much

>>738697469Looks like redditslop to me
>>738693590Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade 2 and BoTW+Nintendo was still a japanese company....yep sw1 shits all over sw2...
>>738697585Sorry. I meant to say the PS5 catalog.
>>738696996Not really because TLOU1 PS4 remastered was released a year later after the original release and remake was released like 8 years later which makes it worse lol
>>7386972172nd part
>>738697832Final part.
>>738696553Still way more and better games than the barrierstation 5
>>738697814Who gives a fuck about the PS5? Just because It's shit doesn't mean the SW2 isn't a gigantic downgrade from the SW1 that only faggots on /v/ and famitsuboards would defend
>>738697827You know remember that the TLOU >>>>Remake cut the multiplayer from the original
>>738697950>Who gives a fuck about the PS5?>proceeds to cry about famitsu lol you're not fooling anyone
>>738669863Nintendo's investment into Switch 2 software doesn't even match their first year expectations, shit's genuinely pathetic.
Meanwhile at the Sony HQ:
>>738697950Are you having troubles moving on from Nintendo anon? Nintendo isn't your friend, you know. You can just leave and stop paying attention to them.
>>738697885Having Bakeru makes up for your owning Double Dragon Neon.

>>738698003The funny thing is the starfox remake didn't cut anything meanwhile snoys are paying $70 to play the same slop but less content lol
>>738698172See >>738698104
>Famitsu out of nowhere every fucking time kek
>>738669863>Switch 2 sales "far exceeded" their expectations.*In failure, lah mao.
>>738698405Very similar to how you people mention sony out no where. Or does that not count?
>>738671867>Stein Gates Remake>Danganronpa 2x2 >Professor Layton and the World of Steam Nintendo first party games mostly suck lately, probably because they're not really a japanese company anymore, just adjusted to having an california mindset
>>738669863It doesn't matter what they say. 17.3 million in the first 7 months is massive any way you put it.
We have officially entered the "Switch 1 was good" era after years of people shitting on it lol.So predictable.
But the games are going on clearance...
>>738698467>Nintendo first party games mostly suck lately, probably because they're not really a japanese company anymore, just adjusted to having an california mindsetHow so?
>>738698461>brings up famitsu out of nowhere>now he's crying about sony being mentionedkek
>>738698515The hardware is doing well, the games are not, outside of bundle kart world
>>738698529>Metroid Prime 4 and New Fire Emblem (turning sothis into safe horny shit)>Blocking moeblob games from releasing in the west They absolutely have adapted the california mindset lol
>>738698182Very excited about this actually.I hope there's a ranking system and ahit.
>>738671867Does this upset /v/? Not shown is playing Mega Man Star Force collection right now. Love me Switch 2. It's a fun console.
>>738698869Sorry you feel that way
>>738698869nta but it probably more of they want to be the next disney rather than them turning woke or whatever, they want to project the brand, obviously it's not good tho
>>738698467The cool nintendo died back in 2023, now they're just like every other platform holder and want to appeal to globalhomo, video games are dead.
>>738671867Here's mine
>>738698869>He's so mad about everyone saying that about Playstation that he ported the meme
>>738670167every company including nintendo does the opposite you fucking tard
>>738698869In fairness, the way MP4's advertising hid all its worst features until near release indicates Nintendo themselves probably saw it as an embarrassment, and the Sothis change seems to have been done because the game's set in another era. Not going to defend moeblob / ecchi games being blocked in the West, though, that shit sucks dick.
>>738699774>Not going to defend moeblob / ecchi games being blocked in the West, though, that shit sucks dick.You just did that though by pretending her outfit changed because of the era.
>>738699829Bit of a disingenuous statement, anonymous.
>>738699572lol
>>738699908It was, which is why I called you out.
>>738699991>Steam was already damaging JP games>Furukawa came in and did the final blow Brutal.
>>738698467>>738698869>>738699296>>738699991>>738700216>I can get the games (Lover Kiss or Fox on the Way Home with Switch 2 editions no less) just fine on the Japanese Eshop like it's always been the case>claiming Nintendo isn't a japanese company lolAnon is trying too hard to push this fake outrage crap when most of those games were never meant to be released overseas. That or the usually terrible localization.
>>738698627>No responseheh
>>738681238It’s 1 or 2 on the eshop consistently. Absolutely baseless and brainless
>>738700628>when most of those games were never meant to be released overseasLying ass faggot
>>738669996The fact that they are acting like absolute shitheads tells you they are doing well financially, remember when they were at the lowest after the Wii U they made the switch regionlock free, relaxed censorship and left it up to each dev ( there were some straight up softcore indie games in the switch eshop, nothing too remarkable but you could say you legally purchased a game with bare anime tits for a nintendo console) humilliated nintendo is best nintendo.
So why do Internet critics keep trying to disparage the Switch 2?
>>738701754It sold less than 700k over last quarter. That's not good considering it hit 14 million when it was bundled.
>>738702198Nintendo seems chill with it.
>>738702198700k out of 2.5 million switches sold when it already had a huge install base because of the bundle and it’s an evergreen title. In the worst sales quarter for entertainment. “Not good” lol. Like I said, brainless
>>738701835Those Corpse Party games were already released in the western Eshops, so your point is moot. You were never going to get the majority of visual novels, let alone something like Maitetsu.Also this is what the "totally not Japanese company" Nintendo has broadcasted for the Switch 2's launch, which wouldn't fly in the West just like Idolm@sterhttps://youtu.be/RjiMk1T-j7s
>>738669996You think lying about hardware sales is going to fix this?
>>738702436The game went from selling 14 million copies at $50 to selling 700k at $80 and no amount of pilpul is gonna change that.
>>738702781The game didn't sell 14 million in just a few months.Also>>738702432
>>738702781lol, like I said, you’re a genuine retard. selectively ignoring and applying context to fit your transparently incorrect narrative is pathetic
>>738702994Tl;dr
>"Nintendo is lying!!!!">refuses to explainWhy are snoys like this?
>>738703060They're used to Sony faking them PS2 sales.Please understand.
It's fucking wild you can just go up to someone with billions of dollars and lie to their face to get them to give you millions of dollars, and then when they check in six months later to see how it's going, you just lie to them again, and your losses don't matter because in the meantime you convinced more people to give you more money to cover it, and you just keep lying for decades until you have one smash hit, and then instead of paying all the money you owe back, you just wave your dick around about how you're more successful than ever (instead of successful for the first time) and that tricks even more rich retards into giving you money
>>738671867What is that Unicorn Overlord thing next to the actual game?
>>738703301Holy run-on sentence, Batman.
>>738703301>I am 12 and I have no clue how investing works
>>738703401Probably the digital artbook from the Deluxe Edition
>>738698075And even then they still laid off 40% of bungie.
what games does switch 2 have..
>>738669863Yeah even they are surprised anyone is buying it with the current games.
>>738669863Bu-Bu-But le COSTCO sales!Le Nintendo fatigue !NINTENDOOOOOOMMM!!!!1
Sega's quarterly report is later today, right? That's gonna be interesting.
>>738698467All of those series are slop except maybe Layton.
>>738669996stay mad li'l snoy cuck.
>>738670219>now that the prices are gonna be jacked up by $100.Sir.We are discussing the Switch2.Not the barrierstation5.It's 50 bucks for Switch2, in 4 months. Nintendo is giving consumers plenty of time to make a decision.
>>738697585>looks like Sounds like you aren't familiar with NeoGeo games which would make you the normalfag.
>>738707571>Not the barrierstation5.
>>738670586Holy fucking cope.We won't see numbers like this for awhile anon.Get over it. Hell we STILL aren't even done with Year1.That's July.
>>738671867I don't screencap my game catalog, but pretty good.>Mario Kart World>DK Bananza>Deamon x machina Titanic Scion>Majogami>Mouse P.I.>Mario Tennis Fever>Kirby Air Riders>HW AoI>plus othersWould have happily bought the resi evil tri pack if requiem was fully physical at minimum. Same for Pragmata. But capcom are cheap fucking kikes, so not my problem.Will be getting Yoshi, Raiders, Starfox, and Duskbloods.>>738672085>Nintendo just buys back more of its stock>again.BASED.Stock is for retards. Nintendo makes money on games, not your faggot imaginery money.
>>738675865Like Aku said.Where's the lie?
>>738678476Snoys got REALLY fucking arrogant during the ps4. With no games on the worthless turd and Nintendo stumbling they really thought they'd finally get Nintendo's premium offerings.Never happened.Then the Switch was a mega success near instantly.They've been mind broken for 8-9 years now.It's all sunk cost, sour grapes, and envy.
>>738681238Please post MK World's current sales number then.Fucking bitch.
>>738705296Isn't this just showing that tendies are brown?
>>738708157I remember when the rallying cry of both the snoys and the microsissies alike was "NINTENDO WILL GO THIRD PARTY LIKE SEGA".Now they're so buckbroken they're relegated to posting about the Steam deck being able to emulate switch games.
>>738683178DK Bananza is sitting at 5mil.The Switch2 is sitting at 20mil.That is 1/4 of owners having it.Please post Mario Odussey's sales 7ish months after release.Kirby Air Riders is at 2.5mil. That's a 1/10 attach rate. Which is pretty damn good for a niche combat kart racer.Cope.
>>738686369first prediction was 15mil actually. then 17, then 19. all 3 got surpassed.
>>738670661The PS2 is my favorite console of all time, but lets not pretend it's sales WEREN'T hugely driven by the dvd boom of the early 2000s. As a söylennial I can confirm lots of people had ps2s to watch dvds first and foremost, they'd play sports games or gta but that was it.
>>738688017Assuming Switch2 only>Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment is a solid improvement over AoC. All characters play well.>Mario Tennis Fever is a great return to the gamecube Power Tennis.>Pokopia is supposedly a solid town builder>Deamon x Machina is a very fun mech suit action game.>Majogami might be the cutest game made period. Plus a very heart felt story of a Father's love for his Daughter.If Switch>Astral Chain, neat cop sim spectacle fighter game.>Bayonetta Origins, super cute metrovania>Luigi's Mansion 3, good spoopy ghost hunting.>Kirby Forgotten Land. Incredibly solid game. its dlc is fun too.>Metroid Dread. solid classic Metroid action.>Splatoon3. game is still lively and one of the best shooters around.
>>738708204He's a PC nigger
>>738698467>>Professor Layton and the World of SteamIsn't Level5 dead?>rest of that postsnoy cope is hilarious.
>>738698869>trying to say that blocking cute Japanese games are bad>still shit on them by calling them 'moeblob'Being antijapanese outs you as a false flagging nigger btw.Just so next time you can do better (you won't)
>>738699774>Not going to defend moeblob / ecchi games being blocked in the West, though, that shit sucks dick.Reminder that you can always reach out to NCL to alert them to NoA's faggotry.https://support-jp.nintendo.com/app/ask_opinionBe sure to tell them to purge all antijapanese and antiwhite dogma from their company.
>>738707946>Nintendo just buys back more of its stocklol this. Anti-nintendo fags act like this is an indicator that nintendo is fucking dying. Their newest console is like over 20million units sold by now while games like pokopia and tomodachi life sold over 4 million copies in just a few weeks
>>738708252It's been a fun, it grating decade certainly.The grapes will only grow more sour.>>738707657Yuh.barrierstation5.the gameless humidifier that's not like 800 bucks without a disc reader.faggot.
>>738708275>Please post Mario Odussey's sales 7ish months after releaseSee the hardware sales here >>738687475
>>738709936so roughly 15mil hardware with 9mil software. so 2/3 roughly.DK Bananza at 1/4 while being the smaller IP and 10 bucks more isn't even that terrible.
>>738710160It does underline the importance of a 3D Mario within the first year though. 2/3 Switch 1 owners having Odyssey is a pretty insane attach rate and an obvious console seller. The Switch 2 doesn't have a 3D Mario even announced, let alone released.
>>738669996>this never happens and never will happenYou can spin shit, you can not lie about hard numbers. This is a huge crime including jail time
>>738710240>It does underline the importance of a 3D Mario within the first year though.>The Switch 2 doesn't have a 3D Mario even announced, let alone released.And yet still at 20milAnd still has 2 months for Year1 close out.You faggots are full of shit.Please find a new script.The Switch is selling massive gang busters, and the software is still keeping up, Hell third parties have MULTIPLE times praised the Switch2 for their sales there. Industry wide.No a 3D mario is not '''absolutely necessary vital or it's dead dying donesville''''.Nintendo using the arly years of the Switch2 to Build up DK, Kirby, Yoshi, Metroid, Starfox, etc is the ACTUAL right move.Mario will always sell. Zelda will always sell. Pokemon will always sell. So getting their more minor IPs built up, recognized, respected, and appreciated is way more important. It'll transfer to long term sales more and draw new eyes to those IPs and any spin-offs they might get.Just hyper focusing on just a handful of IPs and leaving your smaller ones die is how sony completely lost the plot and has ABSOLUTELY NO CHANCE at reviving Ape Escape, Gravity Rush, Parapa, Dark Cloud, etc.
>>738710519I'm just saying the attach rate would be better if there were big IPs more people cared about. Donkey Kong, Kirby's Air Ride and Star Fox aren't it chief.
>>738710583>I'm just saying the attach rate would be betterfor that ONE game.You worthless jizz bin.Mario Kart World is what 15mil? 18?Pokopia 10mil? 12?Not everything is going to get 60-70%+ attach rates.That's a retarded ass expectation, and Nintendo is smart enough to expect that as they praised the growth of Bananza.Shall we bring up ARMS having 2-3mil so only like 1/6?Xenoblade2 2mil so about the same.etc etc.You faggots are flat out wrong. You don't sell 20mil units without games being on offer people want. Hitting different Ips in different genres to lure in all sorts of consumers is how you win.Not aiming for imaginary, impossible attach rates.MK8DX is at like 75mil. That's just under 50% attach rate.FIFTY PERCENT, for 155mil. That's insane. Nothing is going to hit that in the industry for a long ass time. Trying to measure anything to that is a moronic ideal, only done by shit posters, or blind shareholders.
Was this just straight up false information?https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-03-24/nintendo-cuts-switch-2-output-by-over-30-on-weak-holiday-sales>Nintendo Co. is cutting back the production of Switch 2 after demand for the $450 gaming console trailed the company’s expectations during the year-end holiday season, particularly in the US.>The company plans to make 4 million units of its flagship device this quarter, a third less than the 6 million it had originally planned to produce, people familiar with the matter said. The reduced output rate is set to continue in April, the people said, asking not to be named as the figures aren’t public.>After a record-setting debut in June, sales of the Switch 2 have failed to meet Nintendo management’s high expectations. Though demand for a lower-priced but unprofitable variant in Japan has remained strong, sales in the US haven’t met with similar continued success.
>>738711341Yes.Nintendo quite LITERALLY came out and had to say this nigger chink is a lying piece of shit even.Mochi-monkey should never be listened to.
>>738710770>Not everything is going to get 60-70%+ attach ratesFun fact: GTAV has the highest attach rate for any PS game >34% on PS3, 21% on PS4, 27% total
>>738711737I really don't care what your angle here is BUT>using a game people bought for $5 to get $10 worth of shark cardsHorrid fucking example and you should know it. Surely there is a CoD or Fifa that's at least close enough for a REAL example.
>>738672359you know nintendo won damn hard when the best haters can cherry pick is a comparison of a $450 tablet running the same game as a $900 home console with less background itemsthey can't even whine about the graphics because they're very close
>>738711797>He's foodlessThe people of nebleheim literally CAN NOT eat now anon.Yet they still get taxed.This is insanity.
>>738711792>REAL exampleWhat real example? The best selling game on Playstation has less than 30% attach rate but people claim Bananza is a flop becaues it's only 25% (which is "bad" if you compare it to MK8D or MKW).
>>738711873again I'm not counting gta5 because people buying it at huge discounts for shark cards.There has to be a CoD, Fifa, or Madden that hit 20-30% attach rate surely.
>>738711939>CoDmost people play on PC>Fifa or Maddensuprisingly those don't sell as much with FC26 selling only 12m total (8 on Playstation 4&5)
>>738669863Talent always wins.
>>738669996The corporations I love are always truthful. The ones I hate always lie.
>>738712358this was a sony conference just fyi.explains way every brand of snoy acts the same.>>738712227well...that's a bit grim for sony. would have figured one of those over the whole ps catalog woulda hit at least 20% given how much they get jerked off and flaunted.
>>738669996Tendie bros...
>>738712358I mean, for example, Nintendo reports Switch 2 games sold without counting digital Switch 2 Editions. This caused some autists to spam that software sales are poor.They could’ve easily went the Sony route and obfuscated everything by combining Switch and Switch 2 sales. Sony didn’t have the same problem. On the contrary, Snoys thought those were PS5 only sales and spammed how well PS5 is doing
>>738712514>I mean, for example, Nintendo reports Switch 2 games sold without counting digital Switch 2 Editions. This caused some autists to spam that software sales are poor.Which in context, is absurd and borderline saint behavior.Forget sony, basically any other company would have made you buy the game again at full price.Meanwhile most switch 2 upgrades are not even paid, they tend to be free, and when they are in fact paid they have never went over 20 bucks iirc.
>>738712358Corporations lie but not in their investor reports. Instead they circle around the truth as much as possible. Like Sony with their graphs and that ranking where they've lost to InstantPot.
>>738712434>this was a sony conference just fyi.No it wasn't, you deranged retard. That's Ryan Smith and it was a Qualtrics keynote at X4. Thank you for proving the point that you're so fanatical about corporate interests that you'll just make shit up to defend or decry them.
>>738669863Yeah with that laughable ps5 tier bad lineup I also wouldn't have expected so many lemmings to buy the new console already-
>>738713121>laughable ps5 tier bad lineupIt already had more games after 11 months than PS5 has after 66
So, Steam killed Nintendo.
