Why are Snoy and Nintendo shitting the bed so bad? What happened?
How many positive months on a product meant to last 5-10 years can you have before sales decline
>>743815469Consoles are a dead, stagnant market. They haven't been investing in since x360 or arguably the PS2 era. Switch 1 is the last hurrah for those closed down, jewish slopboxes
and yet, Switch 2 was still the best-selling console for the month.
>>743815785>down 79 percent year over year already>before the price hike globally
>>743815959doesn't change what I said, you cum slurper.
>>743816070PS5 and Xbox have still outsold Switch 2 one on one
UHHH STEAMIE BROS?????
>>743816161my image says otherwise, retard.
>>743815959>>743816161June 2025 was the Switch2 launch cum slurper. seethe harder.
>>743816306>>743816310No it doesn’t. PS5 and Xbox X/S sales lifetime are higher than Switch 2 one on one.
>>743815469Trump tariffs. It's hitting Valve hard too.
>>743816415>consoles that have been out for nearly a decade have higher lifetime sales than a console that has been out for a little over a yearwow, you sure are desperate for a win, aren't you?
>>743816482The same logic could also be applied to your statement. Why would anyone expect a 6 year old console that is reaching market saturation to outsell a brand new one? Did you also count it when PS5 was outselling Switch 1 later in its lifespan month over month? I doubt it.
They're starting to get rid of the PS5 section.
>>743817171guess it's going to be one big nintendo section
>>743815469We are on the brink of crisis 2.0 for this rotten industry.
>>743815469>XBS +68%Xbros we're back
>still pretending nintendo are comparable to snoynythe mindbreak continues unabated
>>743815469Are you acquainted with the concept of "context"? What happened June last year retard?
>>743817171You think that's bad? My local Walmart has been shrinking it's gaming section, the Playstation shelves have been minimized and the Xbox section is a single shelf with Master Chief on it, not even Xbox.
We won saars
>>743816658>Why would anyone expect a 6 year old console that is reaching market saturation to outsell a brand new one?It's what happened with the PS4 outselling the Switch and the Switch outselling the PS5.
>>743817171Quick, call target to confirm sony is leaving the console business!!!
>>743815469Swifch 2 is down becaise it launched last year in June. If it wasnt down that would be incredible.Equally as incredible why the heckerino is the Xbox up?
>>743815469We are back Xbros
>>743815469Are you retarded? Last year's June was Switch 2 launch month (around 1.6m sold last june). This month it sold around 370k which is a lot. PS5 is fucking dead though.
>>743815469Based. Fuck Nintendo. Fuck Sony.Burn it all.
>>743821025It was front loaded. PS5 also has a successor releasing next year so it’s not that surprising overall. Obviously if you had listened to people saying Switch 2 was front loaded all that time then it wouldn’t be a shock but here we are.
we are heading to another once in a lifetime (third) recession, if the ai/ram bubble pops the entire market goes belly up.
Yeah because gaming is fucking dead, the new gen's don't give a fuck and just play roblox slop on their supercomputers
>>743821247>Obviously if you had listened to people saying Switch 2 was front loaded all that time then it wouldn’t be a shock but here we are.Yeah, /v/ doesn't get to pretend this is fine for them after hooting and hollering for months about LE MOST FASTEST SELLINGEST CONSOLE OF ALL TIEMS based off those first couple months.
>snoy samefagging like crazy because circana mind broke himjust think, in two years time you wont even see playstation games in the top 10 anymore lmao
>>743815469everyone who wanted those consoles has them already, everyone who didn't want them hasn't had their minds changed by price hikes
>>743821912two more weeks
>>743817171at least at my store, they downsized gaming and books to make room for shitty pop culture mystery box toys
>>743821972no anon, two yearsthat's when sony stops making bluray PS5 games, remember?
>>743821912PS5 is the most profitable Sony console of all time with potentially the lowest Japanese sales in the brands history. Did you really think that would scare us? The PlayStation is ungovernable.
>>743821247In case you’re not a retard baiting, what console sales hasn’t been front loaded?
>>743822127not profitable enough to make physical games lmao
>>743821247>It was front loaded.No fuck, they had pre-orders ontop of all the sales they'd have during June last year. Do you really think a regular June is going match a launch month bolstered by pre-orders?
>>743821730>LE MOST FASTEST SELLINGEST CONSOLE OF ALL TIEMSIsn't it still? iirc the GBA was faster in a few specific regions but that's it
>>743822205or any games
uh oh tendie meltyhow long until the Eric spamming schizoid comes here?
>>743815469No physical no buy. We're not going to take the corpo bullshit any longer
>>743822205>>743822349KEK
>>743822349>>743822205Because physical is obsolete
>>743822138>>743822231Falling off 79 percent is abnormal. It is by definition front loaded. And that is before the price hike even goes into effect.
>>743815469>78%From it's launch week?
>wait wait wait no stop it you're not allowed to compare current Switch 2 sales to past Switch 2 sales that's cheating
>>743823227>Comparing the launch sales rush to a random bumfuck month and pretending switch 2 sales collapsed is somehow totally rational.The switch 2 still outsold the competition 3:1 btw.
>child molester skyKill yourself
>>743822349>>743822205Apex kek
>>743823382And it’s before the price hike. The other consoles have already had to go through that.
>>743823892>already moving the goalpostslol
>an offline spinoff of a series famously enjoyed online>a niche TRPG wildly overestimating its fan loyalty with a premium pricetag>trying again to revive Wii Sports mania>an outsourced N64 remake that they won't show anything for until the last minuteRemember, the Switch 2 got stomped outside of Japan for the holidays last year despite having a new 3D Donkey Kong, Pokemon Legends ZA, and still being bundled with a new Mario Kart; and without GTA6 out yet. This holiday is going to be a massacre with this lineup. God help them if Pokemon WiWa isn't until the holidays in 2027.
>>743823730I sure hope ya don't like twitter threads then.
>troonskyYou will never belong.
>>743822127>PS5 is the most profitable Sony console of all timeIt literally isn't. It can't even cross70mil units and sony has to include ps4 sales and revenue to boost ps5 sales revenue.Sony is massively fucked
>>743824720>It can't even cross70mil unitsIt's literally in the low 90m range now.
Nintendeen won.
>>743824816Sony counts refurbished and Portal as console sales tho
>>743825178So you think they've sold 20 million Portals?
>>743815469June 2025 was the Switch 2's launch month retard.
>>743825220No, the refurbished do the heavy lifting
>>743817281With what games? kek
>>743815469Xbox could do something very funny right now.
>>743825295So Refurbished consoles allegedly made up a fifth of the PS5's sales figures then? That's barely saner.
>>743815469>>743815785>>743815959>compared to last yearYou do realize last June was literally the Switch 2's launch month?
>>743815469>Blueskygo back
>>743825371Portal sold 7M globally by January13M refurbished doesn’t sound that crazy
>>743815469Last June was its release month where sales are highest.
>>743815469Gee maybe because 1 the ps5 is like 7 fucking years old and 2 memory costs are fucking over consumers
>>743815469They have no fucking games and they're overpriced as fuck, I'm not buying a fucking console for 600 dollars + 80 dollar games + passes just to play online.
the Switch 1's first year-over-year monthly drop in NA wasn't nearly as brutal as 78% btw
Usually the further you go into a generation the cheaper consoles getThe price of a ps5 has only gone up, not just on paper but also thanks to inflation
>>743826062Games don't come out anymore.They just tell you they're going to come out.
>>743825028Yeah the idiot olympics
>>743815469The economy is shit and people are looking for entertainment elsewhere
>>743826592Where
Bussy.Socal
>>743826592Movies, tv, books, the usual. Gaming is pricing out people who aren't dedicated hobbyists
>>743826695under their shoe
>>743815469no games why would anyone buy
>>743817171I saw this post. And I just happened to go to Target myself yesterday because my dumb ass thought I had an extra detergent in the storage closet but I didnt.I can confirm it looks like the game shelves are getting removed at mine as well. Or maybe all targets are just remodeling.
>>743824635>got stomped outside of Japan for the holidays last yearSwitch2 was the best selling console in December in USA. All the games you mentioned sold million. The new ones will sell million. Seethe harder faggot.
>>743827141>All the games you mentioned sold million. The new ones will sell million.saar
Morons raised the console prices.
>>743815469>XBS +68%What did I miss?
>>743827339Forza Horizon 6.Xbox doing so bad its easy to accidentally sell a couple hundred and get big gains.
>>743827339panic rush to buy the cheapest gta6 machine + forza 6keep in mind the jeetbox was already selling like ass for years so the % increase is less impressive than it looks
>>743827219>no rebuttal
Hmmm. Maybe opting out of a new mainline Mario wasn't a smart idea after all, Nintendo. Especially not when the last one was just a glorified NSMB game that didn't last long.
>>743815469lmao Steam Machine won despite all the kvetching and belching.
>>743825028Based 'deen.
>>743815709doesn't matter, shareholders are quaking rn. Capitalism demands content upward momentum
>>743815469>XBS +86%What the fuck?
Anything is going to look bad if you compare to its literal launch month you fucking moron
>>743817171no thats just what it looks like fully stocked
do not bully the tendies... quick someone make a famitsu thread so they can calm down

>>743815469>Why are Snoy and Nintendo shitting the bed so bad? What happenedThis dude is a corpo shill, he always spams near falsified data for the purpose of validating some corporate decision or argument in favor of corporations.This dude's word is the same as a dog's turd, completely worthless, plus, have in mind that the data he has is self reported by companies that are adhered to his services, not every developer and publisher reports data to him, so always take everything he says with extreme caution because he lacks massive amounts of data that could, and would, change the conclusions.
>>743815469consoles are way too expensive nowim not paying 1000 bucks for something thats gonna be replaced in 2 years
>i-its not real!Typical Nintendo manchild meltie
>>743825178Wait really? If they're genuinely fluffing their sales numbers by counting an accessory and resales of used consoles and they still can't beat Switch 2 then lmao
>>743829478>it's fake if it's not 100% positive for nintendo
>>743829940I fully expect that rumored Sony handheld to have 'PS6' in the name so Sony can combine the sales of it with the home console.
>>743830572duh?
>>743826174So its another seething PChud thread, got it
>>743815469>snoy movieplayerno games since its launch and openly telling their sisterhood of fans that they will own nothing and be happy>switch 2Only solid exclusive thus far is a kirby racing game spinoff. Give tendo 2-3 years when they start dropping nuke after nuke, Smash 6 and the next 3d mario will both be the light at the end of this tunnel of shit for the past 8 years.
>>743817171holy shit that thing in the upper left corner scared me lol
>>743829003jej
>>743831241They're 100% gonna drop 3D Mario in 2027 to suck all the oxygen out of the PS6 launch. Like how they're using Ocarina of Time to counter GTA6
>>743831993If you think Nintendo thinks that they're "countering" GTA6, much less that anything *can* counter GTA6, you're dead wrong. It's supplemental programming, nothing wrong with that. Always good to have two very different things coming out around the same time, it ain't gonna be steeping on Rockstar's toes.
>>743821912Is sony planning on just selling code-in-boxes at retailers? what is their plan here?
>>743815469>every zioconsole moving in lock step towards you will own nothing>Prices going up across the board>Rent forever semitism in full effectMaybe it's time people learned about emulation, roms, and physically owned external hard drives. Yar Har.
>>743824635>the Switch 2 got stomped outside of Japan for the holidays last yearWhere did you get that idea from?
>>743832521>physically owned external hard drivesyeah... while they exist...
>>743832541The nigga with the crooked eyes that got BTFO'd by Mat Piscatella
>>743832604goytendo can shut down their online store, but they can't shut down my roms. No excuses. Move to protect your property rights in any way you can, or ready your tits to be milked like the goyim you are. The yiddish writing is on the wall. take note of it or suffer not far down the road.
>>743832521>b-bro just emulateI want to play new games
>>743832767That's what I'd assumed but I am genuinely curious, Chris Dring's article is literally the only one I can find which doesn't say that it came first and all the articles which contradicted him are more recent than his
>>743815469Everything is too fucking expensive now for something that is digital-only entertainment. Videogames have failed at the one thing it's meant to do, entertain, with a massive price-tag for games that are inferior to what came a decade before it. The second videogame crash is finally happening due to these companies losing touch with reality and constantly snubbing their consumer-base.
>>743817171Sony is probably going to make their own Switch knock-off at this point. The brick console market is collapsing, hardware prices are too steep to make top-of-line consoles anymore. The Ps6 will be dock-able handheld.
>>743832827holy mental illness. what a way to completely not understand what i said
>>743833791This has been heavily rumored for at least a year now.
Switchbros...
>>743832541The fact that PS5 sold 8m that quarter and Switch 2 only sold 7.01m, lower than Switch 1 first holiday too.>>743832343Why are we acting like it’s not going to get delayed again? September 2027, to sell the PS6/handheld has high odds of happening. No way they wouldn’t release it alongside a brand new console for free advertising.
>>743830306Bro he literally makes up numbers for Nintendo since they don't share data with his company
xbros we're winning!
>>743834091They dropped GTA5 in late 2013 on PS3/360 right before PS4/Xbone launched, and then sold an updated version for the new consoles a year later. They'll do something similar with GTA6 so they can double dip again
>>743834495The PS6 could already have trouble selling and GTA 6 is the perfect system seller for it. It will be available on PS5/Xbox Series still. Thinking it’s going to come out this year just seems foolish. I’m not saying it won’t happen but the scope of it is so big they know what they can get away with. Why would it drop in some off year without a new console? Seriously consider that.
>>743834091>The fact that PS5 sold 8m that quarter and Switch 2 only sold 7.01mThis doesn't really seem like the same point as>the Switch 2 got stomped outside of JapanIn any case, isn't it standard for new consoles to get outsold at Christmas by ones which have been out for years? My understanding is that part of the pushback against this sort of stuff stemmed from people acting as if this situation was unique to the Switch 2 when it isn't
>>743834895Well the PS5 won the whole quarter indicating that outside of Japan, that yes it did in fact beat the Switch 2 fairly badly. This compounds when you consider the fact that PS5 has barely had any exclusives at all over its lifespan and most people didn’t have a Switch 2 yet.
>macaco threadYou got raped n gaped-63782982 karma to ziony, 'fraid so
>it took nintendo 1 generation to get back to the Wii-U
Switch 2 is a huge flop and the NOGAMES are proofenjoy your facebbok games like Pokopia and Tomadachi life tendies
>>743835418>says it doesn't have games>proceeds to name some games on switchlol
>>743835691OUYA also has games
>>743834873Why would Rockstar delay their big game just to boost PS6? They're not Sony, they're a 3rd party dev with no particular loyalties and whether PS6 sells big or not isn't really their concern anyway.
>>743836601Because they are still making shit tons of money off of GTA V online and there’s almost no point in rushing something that they are going to milk for multiple decades anyways. They can allow PS5 to fully flesh out its install base plus have whatever the PS6 sells on top of it. You have to look at the big picture here. Another year to normies is nothing.
>>743835691Forgive him anon, he's mentally retarded.
>>743836829only mentally retarded people play games like Pokopia and Tomadchi lifenice self own faggotretard
>>743836768PS5's install base is already fleshed out, 98% of ppl who are ever going to buy a PS5 already have one. And by releasing it this year they can rake in the sales from that base and then get a bunch of those some ppl to buy it again on PS6 next year. It's all about maximum revenue
Nintendo Switch 2 sold approx. 350.000 units in June 2026 (US / Circana)• Reaching 6.25m units sold in 13 months, the 2nd best result in history behind only the GBA (7m)• Leading by 11% (+1pt) over Switch after 13 months
>>743837214Remember what happened with PS3 and 4? Just because the 4 came out 2 months later didn’t prevent people from having to buy it on the PS3, as the PS4 version came almost a year later. There is a next gen patch sale factored in already regardless. Yes, they are going to double dip but don’t think they won’t delay it to late next year either way due to that. GTA 6 is akin to seeing aliens or something crazy happening, it isn’t just some game that’s going to release in an off year, they have barely marketed it as well. They have delayed it time and time again. Just be prepared. I am not saying that it will be delayed but this isn’t a typical game.
>>743837368>Reaching 6.25m units sold in 13 months, the 2nd best result in history behind only the GBA (7m)When it sold 5m of that after just 3 months and then dropped off a cliff, it doesn't sound anywhere near as rosy.
>>743837639Yeah GTA6 is basically a video game cryptid at this point and it's gonna be the hottest topic of the year. All I'm saying is that Rockstar doesn't generally base their release timing around console launches and the GTA6 release day is so close now that delaying it again would get them stoned to death by an angry mob
>>743817171What's the sad lonely Amiibo?
>>743833791Sony always copies Nintendo, so it wouldn't surprise me if they did. I doubt it will sell as well since it will likely be in the 800~ dollar price range.
>>743838397Also keep in mind one of the founders stated that they didn’t want to release a game as long as you know who is in office so who knows what they are thinking. That makes it sound like it’ll get delayed to 2029. At any rate they know what they have and how they can sit on it. It gives them a lot of leverage over consumers.
>>743825296Wii U ports
>>743838628If they have any sense they'll make the handheld as cheap as possible and eat the losses on it, then sell the console version at a profit and position it as a premium option for enthusiasts like PS5 Pro. The portable PS6 is gonna be competing directly with Switch 2 and it needs to be similarly priced to stand a chance.
