>>749479081The exclusives are shit but Ninpedos will never admit it
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.
>>749480482They 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.
>>749480482They were good
>>749483342Nope. If they were good I would have bought one. I've owned every other Nintendo console since SNES. Nintendo has changed post Iwata.
>>749482835This 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 RMXNow 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 EditionThe 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 oneLogical fallacy.
>>749485143>you're talking about the sales of games published by NintendoNope. 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.
>>749479254>But they are on the lock screenbig deal>Lacking features is a good thing?not features but social media features>What difference does that make to me? Cut their salaries and maybe games won't be $70imagine all the profit goes to the workers, that would be nice
>>749479081lockscreen has ads
>>749486246>imagine all the profit goes to the workersBut it doesn't.
>The biggest and most diverse catalog of exclusives.
>>749486508It's factually true. It has more exclusives than the PlayStation and Xbox combined already.
>>749486508Oh boy! Breath of the Wild Switch 2 Edition, Breath of the Wild 2 Switch 2 Edition, Breath of the Wild Mario Kart Edition, Breath of the Wild Metroid Edition, Breath of the Wild Switch Sports Edition, Breath of the Wild Kirby Edition... so much diversity!!!
>>749479081>Very limited social media features.ignoring the fucking paywalled button on your controller exclusively made for social media shit?
>>749486723Which button? I don't see it on my joycons.
>Nobody's buying third party games on Switch 2, they said>Third party support is going to completely flop on the Switch 2, they said>Publishers are going to abandon the Switch 2, they said
>>749486928Snoys absolutely buckbroken
>>749479081it'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 lifeThere'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.
>>749487249I 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 shitI don't think there's a single AAA worth playing in my opinion.Anything in particular you're excited for?
>>749487312Akshually, the good SMT games (IV, IV Apo, Persona Q, and Soul Hackers) are on 3DS.
>>749487709what 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.
>>749488142the OG Strange Journey is better on the DS as is the SRPG title.
>>749486928Both my country and Japan are pretty similar on third-parties selling on Switch 2
>>749488145>what I've mentionedYou didnt mention anything yet...>pragamata and the new RE gamesFor the price of a PS5 you'd be better off getting a Mini PC for games.I got one for about £800 and it's surprisingly beefy.
>hourly macaco falseflagging thread Kwabooty -583953 karma to ziony btw
>>749488359that's way more than a used ps5 costs, could use the difference to buy every game I'm interested in playing and even more. I'll just stick to my 'eck for other PC stuff.
>>749486928>>749488270ayo what the fuck MW4 is coming to the S2? Is this the first full fat cod on a nintendo console? The wii ports were butchered
>>749488497kill yourself you worthless autistic faggot
>>749488876>that's way more than a used ps5 costsPost the cost please. You can get them much cheaper than that and I still thing it outperforms PS5.
>>749489174Gonna cry macaco, you retarded favela nigger?You'd have an easier time not getting called out of you weren't a fucking mongoloid retard spamming your gay little images every time. Like>>749486508Another -73952 karma to ziony btw
>>749489393a used PS5 can be had for like 450 euros. 800 pounds is twice that.

>>749479081>$500 handheld>$80 games>$35 dlcsit's the complete opposite of affordable
>>749489917Oh if we're talking used a used £1000 PC is around that price.I'm still correct if "playing AAA is your goal"
>>749490105Get a job so you can play something other than terrarria on your mom's laptop, sealion pedo.
Wow, how shocking. macaco gets assblasted, rectum ravaged even, and suddenly Gavin the piss gargling pedo shows up. Just a coincidence imnsure
>>749490498You are the pedo, sealion. You defend pedos.
>>749490025dignity emblem and metroid
>>749490105>buy used
>>749479081Been 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.
>affordable>63% of Americans don't have enough savings to cover an unexpected $500 bill
>>749485143>shows an entire third party lineup, no better than PS5 and XboxAre you kidding?
>>749487208>I'll get it a few years down the line when it gets a real new zelda or mario.How much do you think the Nintendo Switch 2 OLED is going to cost?
>>749479081Nintendomination.
>>749485143Holy shit!
>>749486928Oh, no, no, no...
>>749485521Notice how you didn't get a response to this
>>749486928*best played on PS5/PC
>>749486425>>749479254>lockscreenNever even seen the lock screen. What the fuck is that?
>>749493554When you turn the console on from sleep mode and you have to press a button 3 times.
>>749479081You forgot to mention its all spin-offs or upgrade packs
>>749490205>still correctno, you're not. I don't to spend 1000 fucking pounds to play AAA games lmfao
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 allYeah, nah.
If a thread about Nintendo exist, the probability of the macaco poster sperging out in it approaches 1
>>749494394This. 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 helpHere'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.
>>749494605Rent free macaco. If you weren't such a blatant blithering retard, you wouldn't be getting called out instantly -73852 karma to ziony btw
As annoying as he is, macaco poster provides free bumps which is kinda useful. >>749495643The 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.
>>749493082Ganondorf fears this man.
Alright, what is he seething about this time?
>>749496227The same as always it seems, people being mean to Nintendo.
>>749496028I 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.
>>749496290I'm talking about you. Who hurt you?
>>749496324I 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.
>>749488940Yeah I'm thinking of picking it up. But I don't have switch online so I wonder if I can play against bots.
>>749496468Wait Yoshi is $70. Nvm it’s full priced, it’s not even a “cheaper” game. Lmao wtf were they thinking?
>>749479081>affordable Overpriced but thats partly due to ai malarkey >exclusives are gameplay oriented not graphicsWould agree if they weren't hitting the remake button these days>no ads on the dashboardIts unskippable unlock screen every time you use it shows adsYou can prefer a console without becoming an unpaid marketer
>>749479081Buy a fucking ad.
>>749479254I agree with you on everything except >Lacking features is a good thing?When it comes to social media yes
>>749479081Buy an ad, sir.
>>749485143>The reason Nintendo's 1st party software sales are lower than Switch is that they have way more competition from third partiesYou mean all those third parties that also aren't selling?
>>749496578Probably didn't help that Yoshi was the first game where Nintendo's new upcharge on first-party physical games was announced. It's depressing how many people fell for the shill narrative of "they made digital games cheaper!".
>>749497440b-b-but le eShop rankings!!! (but please please please ignore how even flops like Metroid Prime 4 managed to chart at #1 for several weeks, showing that it doesn't take much to chart on the Switch 2 eShop...)
>>749498015The tendies spouting that didn’t believe it themselves. They knew they were lying and weren’t convincing anyone, I genuinely don’t know why they needed to pretend.
>>749498143They wanted another point to dunk on Sony with, because almost every fanboy selling point for the Switch 2 is just "BUT WUDDABOUT PS5!!!".
“Historically, we haven’t had a preference for a specific format. We take consumer preferences very much into consideration. We also have a platform that was just launched. We’ve been around for a little over a year with the Nintendo Switch 2 , and it offers both digital and physical games. Therefore, we have no plans to abandon physical media. We know how much fans also enjoy it.”https://nintendoeverything.com/nintendo-says-it-has-no-plans-to-ditch-physical-games-knows-how-much-fans-like-it/
>>749498532Ah, so that's why snoys are so angry today
>>749498917yes it's all a conspiracy anon you cracked it
>The biggest and most diverse catalog of exclusives.The least amount of quality third party games that were not released 5+ years ago. I guess that balances it out.
It has no games
>>749479081I actually bought one because I heard about the coming price increase but have zero games for it.I hope it will be worth it eventually
>>749499250The Zelda remake is the first game the system is getting.
>>749480605It's clearly just bait though. >Affordable.like come the fuck on. Even the die hard Nintendo faggots will admit it's expensive but they see it as some cringe wealth status.
>>749497440>>749498108Metroid Prime 4 was almost a year ago and there wasn't a continuous lineup of third-party releases like it's been the case in the last few months (Lies of P, Elden Ring, Village in the Shade, Digimon Story, KH Collection, Dragon's Dogma 2, Granblue Relink and Versus, etc.)But sure let's pretend they don't sell because you're that upset those games keep being ported or released simultaneously on Switch 2, which does show there is a strong consumer interest after all.
>too expensive >80 dollar games that are just ported switch 1 games >Literally nothing else>tendies will pretend that Nintendo is actually based
>>749498532>Nintendo: "We have no plans to abandon physical media. We know how much fans also enjoy it">Sony: "We're not changing our minds. We're not going to make discs anymore. Get over it"There are people that say nintendo is worse than EA and blizzard lol
>>749499427>this dude listing full priced years old ports as things to be excited aboutLmao Enjoy your first time playing kingdom hearts and far cry 3 soon bro
>>749499605>Moving the goalpost
>>749498450>because almost every fanboy selling point for the Switch 2 is just "BUT WUDDABOUT PS5!!!"hilarious how this got proven true almost immediately after
