Switch 2 has a library problem. It has huge hits with casuals and women but a lack of appealing core gamer titles.With GTA 6 slated for Playstation and Xbox this year it's gonna look really bad when all Nintendo has to offer is a really bad Metroid game and yet another remake of Star Fox 64.

>>739359767Switch 2 is doing better than both PlayStation and Xbox. Sony's going back to AA games while slowing killing their AAA games because they know GTA VI isn't going to save the AAA industry. Xbox is literally dead.https://www.seattletimes.com/business/microsoft-turns-to-video-game-researcher-to-fire-up-xbox-revival-2/>For many, loyalty to one games platform over another is tied to the exclusive titles they can play only on that machine, and Microsoft's previous strategy of distributing its top titles everywhere seemed to dilute that appeal. Matthew Ball declined to comment on whether Microsoft will follow Sony in making some blockbuster games exclusive to its console, but added that there are more options than the binary of exclusivity.Straight from the horse's mouth. Can you stop shilling the Xbox now. No exclusive games means it's dead. These are the new big three, Nintendo, Sony, and Valve. I guess I'm going to have to educate you to leave Xbox out of everything going forward, you loser.
she killed billions
Stop seething, fucking loser.
>>739359918The AAA industry has been dead since 2011, if they can somehow attract and cultivate actual AA studios they will be in a good position, not that I have faith in Sony making good decisions.The Switch 2 has a lineup problem so massive that they capped off the Switch 1 by going on a crusade against the emulators and piracy that made the Switch 1 a success, they are banking almost entirely on fanatics and momentum to carry them across a Wii U equivalent period.The big three are Linux, Valve and GoG.
>>739360097For PC gaming, people only care about Valve/Steam. No one else matters.
>>739359767>>739360097Nobody cares about your snoytranny lies, Eric
>>739359767Nintendo has that Souls game coming out and we all know guys can't live without more Souls games.
>>739359829>>739359950>>739360209Holy moly the proverbial hive has been kicked. Not the anon, but asking in good faith, do you think the Nintendo first party output has been satisfactory?
>>739360097>they are banking almost entirely on fanatics and momentum to carry them across a Wii U equivalent period.anon I doubt you were alive during the WiiU era if you are saying this, I am not the target audience for many of the more casual nintendo games this year so far but they atleast have 1 new exclusive game per month at minimum until July atleast, there used to be 3-6 month long gaps for the WiiU for fucks sake.
>>739360561Yes
>>739360681that shit is outdated aswell, it doesnt have Splatoon Raiders and Starfox.
>>739360452Ok? Where is Tarnised Edition? What even is Duskbloods? Both look like they're 2027 releases and we're talking about how bad it currently looks in 2026?Wokeanza was a flop, Metroid Prime 4 was a flop, I doubt Star Fox is going to be the killer app that sways hardcore gamers to the platform.
>>739360712Eric, nobody is falling for your snoytranny los. Duskbloods is confirmed for 2026,the rest is just lies
>>739360452It's like Nightreign we can live without that. FromSoft is going to announce the next real one during E3 season.
>>739360712fun fact, Bananza has outsold every single PS5 exclusive in 2026 and 2027 combined so.
>>739359829He's right. They have had like a dozen big titles but they're literally for women, fags and literal toddlers I'm a huge Nintenfanboy and there's NOTHING on switch 2 by Nintendo I give a shit about and nothing coming soon either.
>>739360681>Shit>Good>Not an exclusive>Shit>Not an exclusive
>>739360759Nightreign is more of a Dark Souls 2 and Duskblood being the Bloodborne equivalent since Miyazaki is actually working on it.
>>739360712>>739360759>>739360780>>739360771Nice sametrannying, Eric. >WokeanzaWhy are snoytrannies so mentally retarded?
>>739360681>all slop for women and trannies
>>739360823>>739360780Sounds like you lost and got raped ;)
>>739360863;)
>>739360097>emulators and piracy>made the Switch 1 a successLmao, what?You got it backwards, m8.Switch emulators and Switch piracy were popular because the Switch itself was very popular.The Dreamcast, the original Xbox, the Vita and the Wii U all had rampant piracy too and were considered underperformers at best and failures at worst.
Switch 2 is a console for women and (man)children, and there's nothing wrong with that.Adults will continue to play on Playstation and PC instead.
>>739361798Im sorry but PS is only for women and gays, all I see are ads of Playstation 5 sponsoring Womens rights events whenever I have to use some apps,. its peak giga faggotry. say what you want about Tomodachis faggotry but at the very least you can call everyone nigger and make rape dungeon islands in it
>>739361798
>>739361941All I see on Shitch are games for women and children. >>739360681
>>739359767It's mostly cause of MP4 lol. Nintendo's not supposed to have stinking POS like that.
>>739362415never said that it wasn't, was just saying that PS as a platform is as pozzed if not even more pozzed than Switch 2.
>>739362415>>739362563I accept your trannyscession, Eric ;) see >>739361987
>>739361798>>739362415Mature gamer bros...We're tainted by the Switch
>>739359767>core gamerwtf are you talking about it's a console for your 8 and 9 year old niece and nephew. some monster drinking teenager isn't going to buy a lurid pink big gameboy as his main game system you idiot. he's not even going to hide it at home. it's just too kiddy
>>739362563It's really no wonder Nintendo finally shitcanned Tanabe after he tanked that game, if it'd been good or even just decent (which it could've been without ll of his dogshit idea) then it would've been a solid selling point for less casual fans, and that's clearly what they were banking on it being. Now the console really lacks anything enticing if you want something meatier than life sims or party games.
>>739363407Nintendo doesn't function this way. They've never laid off a team of people or resolved themselves to never try an idea again solely in response to failure. They're capable of learning from their mistakes and trying to course correct towards community preference, but you guys expecting Metroid in particular to go completely dormant just because they released a Prime game that people on the internet thought was anywhere from "bad" to "just okay" would never cause them to make a panic decision regarding the staff of the series or the series itself. The company and series lead that released fucking Federation Force is the same company and series lead that shipped Prime 4. Tanabe just got old enough to retire, and retired, that's it. People have wanted him gone since Other M.>Now the console really lacks anything enticing if you want something meatier than life sims or party games.Even though I really quite like the games that have been coming to the Switch 2 (I even loved Drag x Drive), I've found myself playing a lot of third party titles on the system since there are so many more available now (Tackling Patapon, Pragmata and MHS3 atm). I never finished BOTW either, so that's been real fun to go through with the updated graphics. Waiting on the Xenoblade series to get upgrades as well so I can finally play through those. I don't think people are going to have a real shortage of shit to play. The demographic of gamers who have finished Nintendo's entire Switch 1 catalog and are ONLY getting the Switch 2 to play Switch 2 games really don't seem like the leading demographic of prospective console purchasers. It would be different if the system wasn't backwards compatible, but it is, so the matter of transitioning to the platform is simply whether you want to upgrade or not, and for people who didn't have a Switch 1 you still have an enormous library available on it.
>>739362607>third parties and indies that play better on PCOk?>Also PC games has a ton more than the Switch
>>739359767Switch 2 is fucking disgusting
>>739360681Anon, and I mean this sincerely, did you play and enjoy the new Yoshi game? That looks like the most generic, bland, vanilla game, just like the last three Yoshi games. Was it even a challenge? Was it memorable? Or are you just defending your favourite toy?
>>739364147Yeah and Itsuno didn't get canned for Flopma 2. Get real, there's a world of difference between the 8 year shitshow of a title as high profile as Prime being expected to fill out the early library of Switch 2 and a crappy spin off game nobody cares about. Tanaba simply used up all his strikes and is now outta there.
>>739365146>>739365508>>739367150Sounds you lost and got raped ;)
>>739367747Hideaki Itsuno didn't fucking work for Nintendo and he wasn't retirement age you daft idiot. By your logic, Tanabe should've gotten shitcanned 16 years ago. There is no record of anything like this ever happening at Nintendo, they retain their employees until they become fossils, that's part of why they have record high employee retention at 99%.They emphasize the importance of giving developers the opportunity to take lots of shots at things and they weather whatever risks may come with that. It's why you get shit like the sequel to a critical flop like Kirby Air Ride as a launch title 20 years later from the dude who makes a far bigger, more acclaimed and more profitable series of games instead of making him work on something that would have guaranteed success.

Yea it was their idea, but you already know it won’t be a mistake they’ll make again going forward; it’s back to the smash mines for ol’ Sakurai, likely permanently
>>739369927>>739371561Smashfags are the worst. Kirby Air Riders is fantastic.
>>739368096esl
Consoles just seem so shit these days next to PC.
>>739359767You're acting as if us women aren't half of gamers as it is
>>739360681>140 days with no gamesgrim...
>>739365146>gets proven wrong that there are only games for women/kids on Switch>gotta change the goalpost thenIf most of those games in pic related release on Switch 2, then I consider PC gaming to be obsolete for good
>>739373716There's nothing wrong with the Switch 2 being a console for children and women.
>>739373892Sounds like PS5
>>739373716you will never be a woman, tranny
>>739373931The point is that its retarded to fully rely on third parties or indies when the actual platform exclusives are literally baby tier. Its like saying all of Sony's exclusives are all baby games but its okay because all the indies and third parties are coming to the platform.>>If most of those games in pic related release on Switch 2, then I consider PC gaming to be obsolete for goodYeah lmao good luck with that, but even then its fucking pathetic to be begging for ports like this.
>>739361798>AdultsThought adults were too busy to play crummy videogames
>>739371561Until he finishes this Smash, then he can go back to do whatever he wants, maybe another Kirby Air Ride
>>739359918they're gonna release to XBOX and Windows but not PS5 or Switchthe next XBOX will be called XBOX Surface and you will be able to use it as a gaming PC
nutendo fans will never ever admit because they enjoy nintendo winning the sales race too much but modern nintendo is way too obsessed with making their games extremely easy or making games that barely have any gameplay expressionsand why should they change when everything they shit out instantly sells atleast 3mYou have one big zelda and one proper 3d mario game each console now and that's it.
>>739376017the games aren't selling anymore
>>739376017>noneWiiU had 2 remakes, that was 10 years ago and S2 has a bigger installbase so we can at least expect 2 remakes but the movie is coming next year so I'm sure we'll get at least one exclusive Zelda and another cross platform.
>>739375840>Yeah lmao good luck with that, but even then its fucking pathetic to be begging for ports like this.I don't need to beg though. If they come then it's all good. And if they don't, it doesn't change the fact the Switch remains a platform that I prioritize far more than my gaming PC.The pic was more to show there isn't much left for me on PC.
>>739376625Good riddance then, you're gonna be missing out on a lot more games in that case
>>739359767>core gamer titles.GTA 6
>>739360797They're both Multiplayer slop anyway. Duskbloods is even worst since its focuses on PvP.At least Nightreign was fully PvE coop only and that's fun with friends.
>>739360681>>739362607>>739373931>Switch 2 isn't a console for kids/women>Anytime Nintendo releases a more mature exclusive game on the console, they always struggle to get past 1 or 2 million sales>meanwhile anytime one of those "kids/women" centric games come out like Tomodachi Life and Pokopia, instant 4-5+ million sellers.Fucking retarded monkeys
>>739359767"core gaymers" are a minority
>>739362607>>739373931not a single good game there
>>739359767Doesn’t seem to have a sales problem though.
>switch 2 needs games>no those games they’re putting out don’t count>no duskbloods doesn’t count because it’s on switch 2 and I don’t have one>no third party on switch doesn’t count because only sony get to claim themLol. Best selling console of 2025,26, March and April btw
>>739375963They literally can't>Xbox Series is stuck at over 30 million units sold>Game Pass is declining>no one buys games on the Xbox Stores>games sell the most on Steam, PlayStation, and Switch>Xbox Helix will be a niche sold only online console/PC>OEMs will be sold in the PC gaming section of stores like with the ROG Xbox Ally>Helix hardware portfolio will cost around $900-$2000+>everything I said above is going to decrease even more next gen>Microsoft wants 30% margins by 2030If Xbox does exclusives, it'll tank the hardware before 2030 even hits. There's no way to save Xbox and Microsoft is just gearing up to become a publisher. People need to stop pushing this if not even Microsoft can say they'll have full-time exclusives. It's over, it's just Nintendo, Sony, and Valve now.
>>739378732>games sell the most on PSReminder that the best selling and most played games on PS5 are Fortnite, Minecraft, fifa/madden/2K, Roblox and CoD. Saros sold fuck all
>>739359767Still better than PS5, lol.
