How can Nintendo save the Switch 2? It's not doing well at all.
>>
New Mario game or new Zelda game
Switch had both year 1 btw

Emulators killed it

I got royally pissed at Nintendo that Fortune's Weave was 30fps when every other Switch 2 game is 60 and there is literally no reason for it to be 30. Yes I know it's not a big deal to most people but I fucking hate it. And these fuckers refused my refund request.

I don't want to be a petty bitch but I'd by lying if I didn't feel some retribution when all these things like low sales and emulation/recomps on day 0 are happening to Nintendo lately. Feels like exactly what they deserve, they would 100% do the same thing or worse if they were in reversed position.
>>
>>751131290
Repeat after me: Fastest selling console of all time.
>>
they had a good run
>>
>>751131407
Not even that will work with how playable builds of oot remake are progressing.
>>
I could care less, and I will try starting now.
>>
>>751131407
and the Wii U ports
nothing beats those
>>
>>751135041
>implying broken emulation that won’t work for any future games released after Nintendo updates encryption keys will have any effect
lol
lmao
Switch became the best selling console of all time and Nintendo was the most successful ever even after it was blown wide open which is not the case here
>>
>>751135041
Normalfags don't use unofficial emulators or recomps and that's who you appeal to to sell a system. Fags on /v/eddit are the most vocal minorities on the planet.
>>
>>751131290
>tell everyone you're gonna raise the price
>most people who want one rush to buy it before it goes up
>sales decrease after the fact
truly shocking
>>
What % did every other console fall by during this insane price increase nonsense and fake ram shortage
>>
>>751132540
I'm still puzzled as to why they fucking bothered with the 120hz screen. It's like a classic "Here's our new Nintendo gimmick, we're gonna fully utilize it for like 2-3 games and never again"
>>
>>751135520
PS5 went up actually.
>>
the ps2 just broke 500 million sales despite this

PS5 went down 36%.
Note how different the wording by the same site is.
And Switch 2 still sold more units than PS5.
>>
>>751135581
I don't know. My guess is, probably was cheap enough to add to not hurt the bottom line too much.
>>
>>751136075
Yeah I guess, maybe there was some warehouse full of tablets with 120hz screens that were about to go to the dump and they got a sweet deal or some shit
>>
>>751135581
think of the 40fps gaming though
>>
>>751135581
at this point it feels like switch pro and padding generation for next console, just like gamecube and wii u.
>>
>>751131290
i'm going to pirate all their games :)

You literally lost! HAHAHAHAHA

They instantly bounced back with OoT.

I own a steam deck and I'm so sick of this fucking talking point. I'd sooner set my graphics to potato mode for 60fps than tolerate some gay middle ground 40fps

That's quite surprising.
I've seen screenshots of the game and it doesn't look any different from something that could have been released on the PS3 (e.g. Valkyria chronicles)
>>
>>751131290
Is any hardware doing well right now between price increases and shortages?

>>751137676
Switch 2 was the best selling console last quarter.
>>
Well, if people bought before the price increase earlier than they would, of course thereafter you see a decrease. I know at least 3 people that bought sooner than they would (Xmas) just to avoid the price increase. Which... feels logical.
>>
>>751138729
After ps5
>>
>>751137617
Yeah, that's why I didn't even bother researching too much, since I assumed it would be 60 since why the fuck wouldn't it be. Turns out it's impossible to underestimate how incompetent these fuckers can be.
>>
>>751131290
Same problem as the PS5 in the first few years. Simply no interesting titles to justify a purchase of an overpriced console that's on the level of a PS4 (released 2013). They could've made bank with Mario Kart alone but Nintendo went full retard and managed to somehow make a MK game shit.
>>
Why are you people so obsessed with wanting Nintendo to die and disappear?
>>
>>751135581
They probably just picked the cheapest panel on the market with the right size. And it just happened to have 120hz. Its like how it has dlss. Nintendo probably nevwr asked for that its just the chipset they went with supports it. Nintendo barely ever even uses dlss, even the new zelda doesnt use dlss, it uses fsr 1. No inhouse nintendo game uses 120hz either
>>
>>751131290
By hiring the people who's about to be let go of Insomniac

The only rational explanation is they got NTRed by Nintendo chads. Which seems like a division by zero, but this is the only rational explanation behind such primal behavior.

Because Nintendo manages to do relatively well while their competition is tripping itself or have become a shadow of their former self
>western studios keep closing down or firing their staff as of late, though they also did that with the old guard many years ago and without the newer workers learning the ropes
>Playstation completely sabotaged their japanese market when the brand went under control by the americans, so now the majority of japanese third-parties stick to Nintendo
>enough said about Xbox the netflix console though I guess their userbase understood well the predicament to be rather chill about it
>PC gaming has been very expensive due of GPU crypto craze, as well as the memory and storage being used for AI slop to flood the Internet
>chinese and korean gacha witnessed the biggest security breach
this situation of course really triggers the hell out of the resident schizos
>>
>>751131290
They could start by making good games instead of making niggertendrone slop and suing the competition.

with GOOD games

Increase wages, regulate AI to avoid job market disruption, modernize intellectual property laws, heavily penalize conglomerates, yadda yadda.

The Switch 2 is a disaster amongst other things.

Nintendo is dead.

I've seen people that are foaming at the mouth to buy one and get to play Ocarina of Time, but newsflash they cannot afford it. Just lower the price back if they had 40% drop off. Sales would please investors too, no?
>>
>>751141914
Do tendies even care about GTA?
>>
>>751135041
Switch 1 was basically cracked from the start, emulators have almost no affect on sales.
>>
>>751138986
Nope. Switch 2 sold the most hardware last quarter.
>>
>>751142907
Switch was the biggest console of GTA Trilogy
>>
>>751142907
The ones that do probably have another platform to play it on already.
>>
>>751142771
>Lower profits will please investors
Are you serious?
They are already eating increased components costs because they don’t want to increase the prices again like Sony and MS.
And still, it’s the fastest selling console of all time.
>>
>>751142771
>Sales would please investors too, no?
Not if it's at a loss. A big reason for their stock going down is earnings misses due to thinning margins on the hardware.
>>
>>751131407
Nooo! People will learn to love Scrimblo Bimblo shovelware games like fetus game and Yoshi and the toddler's picture book or my friend's at Nintendo will just take their ball and go home.
