Nintendo charges so much for everything around the hardware that its closer than you would think. Gotta buy a grip, a carrying case, a real controller, Nintendo first party titles that never go on sale pretty much, pay for online, etc.

They really need more Swotch 2 games because there's absolutely nothing that catches my eye. Not even a Nintendo hater. I have a Switch 1.

>>739793027
They need OLED or I'm still not interested. I got burned on a DS lite and learned my lesson to wait on the 3DS for the n3DS XL. Switch 2 needs a "pro" model or someshit with better hardware and OLED for me to slightly interested in buying one to keep in the box until it gets hacked to pieces.

Especially since you kept getting mogged by karma, between the qureate CEO admitting he sabotaged the Switch version himself for "the wider audience" while other third-parties have literally no issues
Or that Aquaplus hinted that the Dungeon Travelers may indeed be ported on Switch as a japanese exclusive with eventually a DT3 sequel according to the rpgsite interview.

Its 100% true. There is no such thing as a family computer anymore. The only people that have desktops are either gamers or need it for work. And even then many companies have their employees on laptops rather than desktops.

I hope PCs go back to the way they were back in the 80s: insanely expensive to the point where only enthusiasts gave a shit about them. If I can also get a PC-only internet, I would be in heaven. Eliminate every smartphone zoomer and negroid turd worlder from the pool, give me 1991 again.

You're mixing up your own argument. Households have at least one PC because one of the persons living there uses it, this hints the prospect of them having 1 PC per family member. Same thing for smartphones due convenience and portability.

That's indeed right but it doesn't change that you've been a faggot with derangement syndrome towards a Japanese toy company being at the top of the game industry, with the Switch being the most friendly platform for Japanese games by default, and thus spamming a fake narrative because you're this upset.

>>739793745
The real hard truth is that this is the best of what you're going to get these days in terms of gameplay, maybe minus Yoshi, but apparently it's still fun enough. For everything else, you got a PC, and it's going to take Sony another decade to stop funding movies so their ports are worthless for now.

The exclusives are all for toddlers and overpriced. I'd like to try a few but I'm not paying that much, so I only have DK Bananza. Hopefully we get some good sales on games like Kirby for Black Friday. I'd probably pick up all of them for $30 even though I don't care about most of them, honestly

Reminder qureate said they WANT to make slop for le modern global audience, they even admitted to hire "consultants" to release safely on steam.

>Mr Usuda: Yes, it’s certainly a difficult issue. Firstly, whilst it’s inevitable that some people might find our games ‘disturbing’, we do want to ensure that no one is hurt.
>For example, we have a game called *Beat Refle*, and we received feedback from players who said that the massage scenes in the game reminded them of experiences of sexual harassment. This made us realise once again that such people do exist, and we’ve decided to take care to ensure that no one is hurt.
>Of course, it’s difficult to get everything absolutely right. Even with *Bunny Garden*, if someone were to say, ‘It reminds me of being sexually harassed in a bar,’ I wouldn’t know what to say. Given that the theme is night-time work, there are certain aspects that are, to some extent, unavoidable.
>Mr. Usuda: The most important thing, above all, is reaching as many users as possible. I’m sure that’s a priority not just for us, but for other manufacturers and platform providers as well.
>Mr. Usuda: That’s right. I think we’ll continue to create “games for gentlemen that are as easy to play as snacking on chips.” Within that framework, I’d like to take the titles that have been loved by our users and expand them even further.
>Usuda: With a male protagonist, the premise of “manual labor to pay off debt” works well as a joke, but when it’s a female protagonist and she ends up “taking on debt to work in the nightlife industry…,” it just doesn’t feel funny anymore, does it?
>Usuda: It’s hard to keep it at a level where it’s still funny.

>that VN
The most unforgettable horror porn game I've ever played. No other game had a bunch of elementary schoolers gangbang a teenage girl against a wall. And the teenage girl loved it. No other game I've played had a 17 year old bishonen guy drink a 14 year old girl's piss and chase her down the hall to rape her, only to wind up getting anally raped by a 32 year old fat man. I still remember the scene where a 16-17 girl was hiding under a bed as her same age best friend was having sex with that same 32 year old fat guy on top. She heard every moan, bed shake and sound. In the wrong end she was discovered under the bed by her friend and made to join. A most terrifying scene was when an unwilling girl relives another girl's sex memories. The girl in the memory consented but the reliving girl didn't. It didn't matter that she was mentally screaming, her body in the memory did all the motions and actions as in history. It's like mind control rape except the victim was fully aware. Another scene the same girl and a friend were almost raped in a magic sex ritual, saved by the girl's older sister, and the backlash made the older sister want to rape her younger sister and friend.

The loli in this pic is freakishly lewd and once disguised herself as a teenage girl, fucked a boy until he nearly came, transformed back saying
>You thought you were having sex with a highschooler weren't you? I'm an elementary schooler all along!
And leglocks that boy, forcing him to cum inside her unprotected, when he screams in fear upon learning this. This isn't even getting into the tentacles, the gay sex, the lesbian sex, the incest, the sequel's mother/daughter lesbian scene, etc. The first chapter alone contains lots of lesbian sex scenes with an unavoidable girl masturbating in the bathroom. Truly horror is intrinsically connected with sexuality.

Nintendo's bet to drop out of the Graphics/Chip arms race in 2006 has paid dividends, because, effectively, it doesn't fucking matter to deliver the best graphics, it matters to deliver the best games.

However, let's not forget that they ran on 10+ years on shitty, outdated hardware. At a given point, old hardware definitely limits what kinds of games you can make. Running on a shitty 2017 Tegra definitely limits what kind of games you can deliver.

Nintendo and Sony Japan are the only companies that care about Japanese gaming. Valve never gave a shit nor did Steamies. Soon most third parties will come to Switch 2 and PS6, most will abandon PC gaming entirely. AAA and low-quality indie slop will die. Nintendo and Sony will start a renaissance of high-quality indie, A, and AA games with PC gaming finally being dead.

The Switch 2 is plenty strong enough to run most of it's games at 60 FPS, or at least the first party titles. Nintendo just doesn't give a fuck about FPS, and neither do it's first party developers. The Xenoblade head developer literally said they would rather focus on visuals than FPS.

I'll most likely play it on PC, hoping it comes out as a day 1 multiplat launch but I think it's near guaranteed that it will launch on the switch, not just the PS5. If this is the case, with a staggered PC launch I would get a Switch 2 for that game.

From what I could see Remake was fine and the Switch 2 seems to handle Rebirth better than the Xbox. I care less about graphics nitpicks on a small handheld screen so long as the performance is stable and the new game will be made with the Switch 2's hardware in mind.

The problem with Rebirth, when I say it's castrated, it's not that the graphics are shit, I mean yeah they are, but the bigger issue is that the game is missing a ton of assets, like tables missing all the stuff that used to be above them, empty shelves, it detracts from the game's art, makes it look empty, without life
>>
>>739791159
it's a shame it doesn't have more games. I think Nintendo made a big mistake when they stopped investing into game development. They made so much money on the switch that they had a lot of capacity to make more games, so it's doubly annoying that they can barely put together the kind of pace of title releases that they did back during generations where they were close to broke
>>
>>739791441
not really, you can just buy a cheap laptop and play basically every relevant game

if AAAslop was any good then you'd be locked out of those, but AAA studios have had a really long string of just releasing trash lately. Most indie games run on a potato by comparison.

AAA might come back eventually though, so there will be a point where you might have to buy decent hardware. We're not in that world yet though

It's a surreal console, it's like if PS2 occasionally got a PS3 game. Most of the time it's PS2, sometimes it's PS3, all the while it's backwards compatible with PS1. The console doubles as a handheld, and the console itself is the cartridge that goes into itself (docking it) it's a feat of engineering and it has the games.

retarded fucking niggers
the point wasn't to make a good pc
the point was to match the ps5 pro
you want to see a good pc? fine
the 9800x3d, double the vidya performance of what a cucked zen2 8 core in the ps5 does
a quality motherboard that will let you drop in ps6 pro tier components and sell the old ones and it has 4 m.2 slots
good ram with 10ns first world latency
9070xt, outperforms the ps5 pro gpu by 80%

$2094

by comparison a ps5 pro with a disc reader costs $980, is completely non upgradeable and effectively only 55% as fast
if you wanted to convert that into a number that conveys cost efficiency, then a ps5 pro with comparable performance would cost (100/55)*$980= $1782

2094/1782=1.17
a console at that performance level would only be 17% more efficient, that's fucking pathetic considering their talmudic business model where they recoup costs down the line, that pc will repay that $300 delta with use

Games like Bayonetta or Astral Chain or Xenoblade, there's very few IPs like that on the switch. It's like they axed all the adult content for the console. Internally they're also panicking because the sales are good but not what they expected and that's mainly because the games are there. Granted it's light years beyond the ps5 which is barely a console and the xbox is dead but comparing yourself to failures isn't something you can do forever.
I want to see new Japanese IPs, not western games ported to the switch, those are vapidware.

it was 30 bucks for the delivery and I even tipped the delivery slave 5 dollars for being my slave.

Makes sense since DF absolutely despise Xbox for some reason lmao. Look how only guy there that makes Xbox videos that arent pure analysis is John, literally ALL Xbox videos are him kek hes the only one who doesnt despise that platform. I dont care about muttbox but its been apparent for years, i guess John is the only one who ever owned and gamed on Xbox 360 so he sees platform more fondly through his millenial nostalgia googles.

switch 2 is like mobile 2050 tier
you can buy a whole 2060 machine for less than what the switch 2 costs and it will outperform it in every single game not to mention how cheap the games are in comparison
even a 1050 machine can still play tons of great games at 1080/60 and they are cheap as hell

wrong
the 2050 has 33% more cores and those cores run at 1822mhz as opposed to 1007mhz, 81% faster
this thing is at best a HALF of a 2050

Those ports were complete shit, in handheld mode a Switch 2 is more powerful than a PS4, in spite of this the FFVII Remake on Switch 2 while docked runs at a lower internal resolution than FFVII remake on PS4, there's no excuse for Square Enix being so incompetent on the hardware, this is just a repeat of the original Switch where third party ports were butchered and the hardware was scape goated only for competent teams to actually do a good job.
Starfox is technically more advanced than FFVII remake and it already looks and runs better too, and yes it's a fair comparison, FFVII remake is basically just corridors anyway, but the key difference is that Starfox's skyboxes are fully 3d and exquisitely detailed.

and that's docked
funny how nintendo have achieved its efficiency, compared to the deck you have more gpu hardware but it's running at a blistering FIVE HUNDRED AND SIXTY ONE MEGAHERTZ
this is like if someone tried to make a handheld pc in 2032 by taking a 5090 and dumping the clocks all the way to something like 200 mhz to get efficiency, a complete retard way of doing it where you're overpaying out the ass for silicon that doesn't get fucking used

Does this mean they could theoretically make a tv only console for way cheaper?
>>
>>739816551
yes
by comparison ampere desktop silicon runs at about 2ghz, almost double what docked switch 2 runs at
nintendo is carving off almost 50% of the gpu's performance
the cpu is also completely fucking strangled down to 1ghz, you could easily just remove that, that shit could run at 3ghz easily
and it would be cheaper, you're ripping off the screen, battery, controller and putting it in a plastic box and all you really have to do is give it a bigger heatsink and more robust power delivery
all of that is dirt cheap

What's funny is how it also contradicts the narrative of Nintendo games being evergreen, since you have to constantly re-release remakes and remasters because apparently the original games were completely unplayable. Like Starfox 64. Modern Nintendo fans used to glaze it as a masterpiece, but now it's "outdated dogshit" which desperately needed a remake. The same thing even happened to Switch games. Breath of the Wild and tears of the Kingdom were supposedly masterpieces, and if someone complained about the framerate issues, they were an evil PC vegan. But now the switch 2 versions have better framerate, and now stable framerates are something to gloat about.

To be honest, it's hard to figure out what goes on in the head of a console warrior. Probably nothing, since even the slightest bit of introspective would dispel most retarded arguments ITT.

Listen to me very carefully because this isn't even high school math. If you build a gaming computer for a friend for a favor that's free labor and you/they are buying the best parts piece meal, getting the best deals doing so. Once you finish the build, you don't get any financial compensation afterwards.

Microsoft's supposed business model with the Xbox PC Helix is to produce a gaming PC equivalent build, essentially in the ballpark of RTX XX70-90 tier families, and since it's a next-gen device it'll operating higher than 16GB VRAM we have so potentially 24-32GB VRAM. But that's not what the coup de grace is. The moment Xbox opens their ecosystem to Steam, Epic, or EA/Ubisoft stores they will no longer get money from online subscriptions. People will pirate games as well. Building, distributing, and making profit from sales is a whole different understanding from Microsoft's bottom line.

In the friend example it's pretty clear cut why you wouldn't charge a buddy. But if Microsoft builds it for $2000, to sell consumers at $500, only for hte consumers to never pay Microsoft money when they don't have to use GamePass for online multiplayer/features, Microsoft has effectively lost $1500.

Naturally the third world /v/ Reddit ecosystem that is the Microsoft dying fanbase does not understand this. Nintendo and Sony do lose money on their hardware historically but it's within the margin of $50-$100, which they can recoup if people buy games/memberships. Microsoft can't even get people to buy games when ShitPass rentals emails and sir please redeem is all the Xbox consumer has in mind.

The best out of the three is Bananza, but the MKW is better off as $50 than $80. Pokopia is also fun, but it's a Pokémon game and those don't go on sale often.

Yea the choice for me is between pokopia and bananza. a tough choice. bananza will probably go on sale eventually as you say, pokopia would be a minor sale if any.
I had purchased MK8 for the switch when it dropped and maybe only played 5 hours of it and I imagine my MKW experience will be the same. Maybe when my kid is a few years older it's something we can play together...
Prime 4 is also $40 at best buy which is hard to pass up.

Gaming has undeniably deteriorated since more consumers have switched to PC. People really don't want to acknowledge that this is the case, but yeah, it's true. The early 2010s saw a significant surge in PC gaming among millennials who graduated high school in 2010 and went on to college. Unfortunately, the industry has declined steadily since then.

what >>739827774 said. I got both Bananza and Pokopia physical and I wish I got the latter on digital. Just dropping in on my Pokémon for an hour is easier when it's installed on the console. Bananza is an experience that plays well being physical.
>Prime 4 is also $40 at best buy which is hard to pass up.
Especially when it's the S2 version. I'm not much into the Prime series, but $40 is a good deal regardless.

Not only is that not true, but when they are announced, it is done much later than the other consoles, can suffer random delays, hardly go on sale, or are much more expensive, and to make matters worse, they play worse. Having a Nintendo Console is just asking to get cucked all the time.

no the switch 2 is easily one of the worst consoles ive ever owned. yet again nintendo has made the console anti-consumer. they had an ample opportunity to make this console run all games at 1080p 120 fps but noooo we have to target 4k upscaled on the tablet console! And yes, games absolutely can run at 1080 120 fps. "B-but most TVs are not 120hz!" Sony TVs are.

But yeah I'll probably just sell this shit at a minor loss and wait for Switch 2 emulation.

Once you get right down to it. The gaming audience has been conditioned to be bargain hunters, believing that things get cheaper over time when the reality is that things actually get more expensive as time goes on.
AAA is crashing for a reason.
The obsession with graphics during the console war that Sega started and ultimately lost in was proof enough that there are still unsustainable elements to the game industry. There were other game consoles that were powerful outside of Nintendo vs Sega and they were over priced piece of shit.
Even the multitude of addons and revisions Sega did to their consoles were too fucking expensive.
Even the PlayStation 1 didn't get good until 1999 and by then it was PS2 time.
PS3 also showed us what happens when you go too far.
The AAA game problem is more on software but now hardware is becoming an issue due to the AI trade.
On that note, if you're not part of the AI bull market then you're losing. I literally just made $695 today on just one option premium and $590 last week.

Exactly, Xbox is as dead as Steam Hardware. Nintendo of old is back and Sony of old is returning while PC gaming is going up in flames. Because of the high prices, quality indies, A, and AA studios will leave PC for Switch and PlayStation, AAA who aren't stupid, will start benchmarking off the Switch and PlayStation instead of PC gaming. Devs will start telling PC users to upgrade their hardware to $800-$3000+ devices. People will just get a Switch 2 and any version of the PS6. PC gaming will become cloud gaming and the only native experience will be low-quality indie slop. Microsoft will drop hardware and go full third-party, Valve will drop hardware and just go back to a declining Steam. Their vocal minority of third-world cucks will continue to defend Xbox and Steam. Nintendo and Sony will take over gaming with consoles. There will be a massive golden age of quality-indies, A, and AA games that Xbox and Steam will miss out on while AAA fully corrects itself because of Nintendo and Sony. Switch 2 won't miss out on games due to the PS6 handheld using the same type of RAM, LPDDR5X while not having too much over the Switch 2. Nvidia and AMD will continue to make chips for only Nintendo and Sony as they're the money makers next to AI, they will abandon PC gaming.

PC is what games are made on to begin with. There's only one utterly redundant class of systems here that will be the first to go when hardware prices get real bad, and it's not the open and multipurpose systems that do everything a console can and far more. Consolefags acting like consoles are made out of pixie dist and talcum and aren't a complete waste of compute and money for hardware manufacturers now are in for an extremely rude awakening when new contracts are signed.
>>
>>739842153
It's not cope, Nintendo is doing better than ever, Sony is course correcting even getting rid of pronouns. They're getting the last of their western crap out so they can start fresh during the PS6 era. Microsoft just announced that they will continue to show Switch and PlayStation in their trailers signaling that they're never getting their exclusives back, Valve has indicated that the Steam Machine will be over $1000. PC gaming is becoming too expensive with the big wigs wanting to make it into a cloud gaming platform for AI. It's over consoles won. Sony should have had trouble reclaiming their place in the handheld market, but Valve handed it to them on a silver platter. PC gaming is over, PC gamers will own nothing and they will be happy.

Nintendo's stock is in the gutter. You lot think 'muh sales' is all that matters and it's not. Sony is in a safer position than Nintendo is and Valve is doing better than both.

People say this but i dont feel like i missed out on anything by not having one. Ironically the first current gen console i owned was a playstation and that was also the only non nintendo console i ever owned at the time(unless you count commodore 64 as a console), but i liked the ps1 mainly for the 2d games i dropped most the 3d ones because low poly 3d is cancer. It may be nostalgia, but i feel like their library peaked with the first one because i would be hard pressed to name even 10 games on any of the other 4 playstations i would want to play and most the sequels to ps1 games i enjoyed ruined the franchise. What are the must play games ps2 allegedly had?

good luck modding a switch 2 to play anything not in Nintendo's ecosystem. even if Steam dropped the ball with their price hike, i still rather have a steam deck over a switch 2. there is no good exclusives on switch 2 either, and no, Ditto Quest Builders 2 doesn't count.

>PC is what games are made on to begin with
Someone doesn't remember the gens before the 8th. All games were made on PC, yes, but that doesn't necessarily mean they'll release on PC at all. PC gaming is a redundancy, PC gaming is meant to be something like solitaire, chess, or pinball, it was never something that was meant to be taken seriously. PC are and will always be workstations, consoles are meant for play, they are gamestations for the home and gamestations for the hands.

They can't, they were only able to do that with the Xbox console Store-only with 30% tax and paid online. That's gone with Helix because it's a Windows PC. Microsoft is seeing this and don't plan to bring back exclusives. You idiots are easily swayed.

It's not, next gen, they're using an off-the-shelf desktop PC GPU and a premium node built on performance instead of the consumer node made for the mass market.

>your standards are simply lower as a fucking consolecuck
totally nothing subjective, right?

it would be way easier for nintendo to sell a $50 controller that lets you play games on their storefront than it is to sell a $500 console with gtx 1050 tier performance

>>739859514
i know, consoles are about consooming and never questioning anything

>>739859570
no, objective
your tendie toy's gpu performance is on par with a gtx 1050 and it costs $450
a 5090 prebuilt can be had for about $5k
that 5090 beats your measly tendie toy's performance by a margin of 19 times while costing only 11 times as much

Again; subjective. You're hellbent in measuring game system under parameters that are not for game systems. I don't have a switch.

we were talking about inputs, remember?
it's easier to sell just a controller and expect people to use it with existing hardware
they're just not doing it because the target is control, not actually selling games

>says this while consuming when buying pc parts
but buying parts is in fact about questioning things, you choose what you want
that choice is completely absent with consoles

>Again; subjective. You're hellbent in measuring game system under parameters that are not for game systems. I don't have a switch.
so value doesn't matter when consoles lose to literally the least cost effective option on pc?

>they don't do it because it's about control
>but they should do it because it's easier
then why isn't anyone who isn't obsessed with control capitalising on this market?

i have a good pc and i'm watching a retard flail, why would i be mad?
>>
>>739860225
you tell me, even the console corpos gave up on unique controllers
>>
>>739860404
explain how haptic triggers, touchpads, HD rumble, and gyro being variously exclusive to each platform except for dogshit Xbox is not the same as unique fixed vendor-specific gamepad standards
>>
>>739860506
you can't make a game out of those singular features
>>
>>739860339
I have a pc as well and I'm watching a vegan seething about consoles endlessly. ofc I'm not mad
>>
>>739860641
so a game which requires and is built around a unique type of input which requires a unique controller does not require a unique input standard?
>>
>>739860927
>unique type of input
nigger, vibration is not a fucking input, turn it off and you lose nothing besides the part where you cum slower when you put it in your ass
>>
>>739860974
>mention gyro
>get a reply babbling about vibration
retard
>>
>>739861006
two out of four of the features you mentioned are vibration
something that isn't an input
are you legitimately this retarded?
>>
>>739861079
HD rumble is a whole other subject that you lack the discernment and intelligence to comprehend because good HD rumble can communicate information that can't be communicated through video or audio output, which means its absence in a game that uses it properly would be like playing counterstrike on mute
but we could talk about the features that are more easily related to existing input standards to make it easier on you, such as gyro
>>
>>739861216
>i am le 2smrt4u but i can't name situations where vibration actually does the pseudointellectual shit i'm describing

>such as gyro
so we're down to a feature that has no bearing on the size, shape or layout of the controller and is not even used because it's easier to stick ridiculous aim assist everywhere
great show there
>>
>>739861663
>if the controller is the same shape then it's the same
retard
>>
>>739861712
gyro could be in every single controller in existence and they wouldn't have to really change anything about it
it's not unique, especially not fucking console seller level of unique
