The biggest and most diverse catalog of exclusives.
Affordable.
It will have physical games in 2028.
No Ads on the dashboard.
Very limited social media features.
Most games and exclusives are singleplayer.
Exclusives are gameplay-oriented, rather than graphics-oriented or cinematics-oriented.
And Nintendo has raised its game developers base salary by 10%.

These threads don't come across as advertising the system to others, but Switch 2 owners trying fo convince themselves out loud that they made the right choice.
>>
>>749480482
They can't hide from the Switch 2 having a worse attach rate and total software sales figure than the Switch 1 launch-aligned. And the higher quantity of launch-aligned exclusives means the average sales for them are spread all the thinner. you know how bad it is? Pokopia is the only Switch 2 game released this year confirmed to have sold at least a million copies.
>>
>>749480482
They were good
>>
>>749483342
Nope. If they were good I would have bought one. I've owned every other Nintendo console since SNES. Nintendo has changed post Iwata.

This isn't the gotcha you think it is. Because you're not talking about global software attachment, you're talking about the sales of games published by Nintendo. The reason Nintendo's 1st party software sales are lower than Switch is that they have way more competition from third parties. I can make it really simple to understand. Here is the Switch 1 launch day lineup:

> The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
> 1-2-Switch
> Super Bomberman R
> Just Dance 2017
> Skylanders: Imaginators
> I Am Setsuna
> Snipperclips – Cut it out, together!
> Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove / Specter of Torment
> Fast RMX

Now here is the Switch 2 launch day lineup:

> Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition
> Hogwarts Legacy
> Street Fighter VI: Years 1-2 Fighters Edition
> Sonic x Shadow Generations
> Sid Meier's Civilization VII
> Hitman World of Assassination
> No Man's Sky
> Fortnite
> Yakuza 0: Director's Cut
> Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster
> Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma
> Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time
> Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess
> Deltarune
> Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S
> Split Fiction
> Suikoden I&II HD Remaster
> Survival Kids
> Nobunaga's Ambition Awakening Complete Edition

The decline in first party sales only demonstrates that other publishers are succeeding on Nintendo's platform. It means that Switch 2 is in a much healthier place than Switch 1.

I've had mine for almost a year.

Honestly never played it much. Didn't even have it hooked up for a couple months, but recently it's been my main console (over PS5 Pro). Playing through some old switch games I never had the chance to play, about to start fire emblem, and for the first time in over 20 years I preordered a game (Ocarina of Time) so yeah I'm starting to like this machine more and more but don't really play in handheld as honestly i don't find it comfortable.

Looking to get new Joy Cons that aren't so fucking tiny, something like the Hori Split Pad Pro that the Switch had. I'm hearing good things about the Nyxi Hyperian 3 Ultra or Ultimum? But they seem expensive just for occasional handheld play.

What do you faggots think?
>>
>>749484624
>If they were good I would have bought one
Logical fallacy.
>>
>>749485143
>you're talking about the sales of games published by Nintendo
Nope. Their cumulative software totals they give for their consoles are all games for their systems, not just Nintendo published games. Only their Title Sales Units figures are just Nintendo-published games.

It's factually true. It has more exclusives than the PlayStation and Xbox combined already.

it's not that affordable anymore, I can get a used piss5 for that same price and play all the AAA shit like crimson desert and DD2 at better FPS and res. The exclusives it has currently do not interest me that much, I also don't enjoy nintendo putting tranny shit into tomodachi life but I guess everyone is now fucking poisoned. I'll get it a few years down the line when it gets a real new zelda or mario.
>>
>>749487208
>tranny shit into tomodachi life
There's way more tranny shit on PlayStation. And it's unavoidable.

FACT:
Nintendo never got back to the insanely good games of the GBA and the DS. Metroid Zero Mission, Aria of Sorrow, Pokemon Black, the SMT games... Shit, take me back.
>>
>>749487249
I know. Just saying currently if you want to play the big AAA shit the PS5 is a better option, but down the line the S2 will BTFO it forever.
>>
>>749487379
>if you want to play the big AAA shit
I don't think there's a single AAA worth playing in my opinion.
Anything in particular you're excited for?
>>
>>749487312
Akshually, the good SMT games (IV, IV Apo, Persona Q, and Soul Hackers) are on 3DS.
>>
>>749487709
what I've mentioned plus pragamata and the new RE games. It all runs better on the PS5. So I'll play that shit on there then sell it the piss5 and get a S2 for its exclusives.
>>
>>749488142
the OG Strange Journey is better on the DS as is the SRPG title.

For the price of a PS5 you'd be better off getting a Mini PC for games.

Been buying Playstation since PS2 and honestly didn't think at all about any Nintendo consoles -- got to play BotW, TotK, and Katana Zero on a lent NS, but that's about it.

Well, bought a NS2 recently for Star Fox and OoT (and some hope for that Katana Zero DLC to ever be released) and holy shit does it have indies in spades. Yeah I don't really give a shit about portability or Nintendo franchises that aren't Zelda, ports are obviously inferior, but there's a fuckton of shit you can play on it. It's pretty good.

Switch 2 will only be worth it once it has the new 3D mario and a smash bros. The rest of the games are nice side dishes but cannot carry the console on their own. And I'm aware it's selling fast, but that much more people would be making the jump if it had the killer app games like that
>>
>>749485143
>people aren’t buying the switch 2 exclusives, the primary reason for buying a Nintendo console, but it has nothing to do with the lower quality of them at all
Yeah, nah.
>>
If a thread about Nintendo exist, the probability of the macaco poster sperging out in it approaches 1
>>
>>749494394
This. I'm sure the games themselves being more expensive doesn't help but if the 2025 lineup was more along Switch 1 people wouldn't even comsider older ports like Cyberpunk. Being able to play on the go is not the same novelty it was in 2017
>>
>>749494821
>I'm sure the games themselves being more expensive doesn't help
Here's the kicker - even Switch 2 games released at the same prices or cheaper than S1 games are eating shit. Price is certainly a factor for some, but that's clearly not the only issue with the Switch 2's library in people's eyes. The fact is, people expected a system with a library like the Switch's (thanks to the branding) but got hit with a library more like the WiiU's (even some of the tonedeafness of that era's press cycle has come back) - LOTS of lower-interest IPs and spinoffs. You can primarily thank TotK and Bananza for this.

As annoying as he is, macaco poster provides free bumps which is kinda useful.

>>749495643
The pricing matters, absolutely. Why spend $10-$20 more on lower quality games you don’t care about like donkey Kong? I made the mistake of buying it thinking it’d be good like odyssey but instead it was a game for toddlers. And the sales 100% reflect that. There’s no way Nintendo is happy that DK hasn’t even hit 5 million a year and a half after release when odyssey hit 10 million before even one year on the market.

>>
>>749496227
The same as always it seems, people being mean to Nintendo.
>>
>>749496028
I never said pricing didn't matter, just that it's not the only reason since $50 and $60 games are also struggling. Bananza being $70 was ridiculous, I agree (there's a reason it went on bundle, kids), but it was more than just that price that hurt it. Mario Tennis Fever is probably the game where the price was the most severe and singular reason it flopped, however.
>>
>>749496290
I'm talking about you. Who hurt you?
>>
>>749496324
I know you didn’t say the pricing matters, I was agreeing with you.
And yes, cheaper games are affected by this too because Nintendo hasn’t realized that releasing indie-tier games like Yoshi for $60 when other indie companies are releasing better games for like $20-$30 makes their shit way less appealing.
>>
>>749488940
Yeah I'm thinking of picking it up. But I don't have switch online so I wonder if I can play against bots.
>>
>>749496468
Wait Yoshi is $70. Nvm it’s full priced, it’s not even a “cheaper” game. Lmao wtf were they thinking?
