Say something nice about this game
>>
It won't have legs like Mario kart, world will easily double it over the next year
>>
The pokemon placement is greatly improved over PLA and SV. Mons still wander around aimlessly, but at least we see a bunch placed in trees or walls, in holes, and in similar things, like trubbish in alleys or by garbage cans. It goes a long way making the world feel like pokemon actually inhabit it.
>>
I don't think we actually know MKW's current lifetime sales numbers, just how it was doing back when switch 2 shortages were still a thing
ZA did sell faster but it also has the switch 1 version boosting it
>>

It helps that the limited movement options mean that the game has to actually make an attempt at level design again instead of slapping everything onto open fields because the player is permanently attached to ridemons that can effortlessly traverse everything
It's still not good level design yet but it's leagues above the literal nothing we've been getting
>>

>World
>Having legs
>>
>>58497635
Both games are fucking garbage
>>
>>58497635
>Sold less than PLA
Flop game
>>
>>58497693
world is trash but its still mario kart and mario kart sells
>>
....people buy more mario than pokemon in general, especially with a console, so you are retarded as always on this site
>>
>>58497784
Now only count Switch 2 game sales
>>
>>58497784
Mario relies on bundles to sell. That's why You'll never see a Mario game sell this amount in such a short time
>>
>>58497635
You mean the game with the Switch 1 installbase outsold a game that only has the Switch 2 installbase?
Nice try, buddy, get those numbers rolling with Gen 10 next year and THEN you can laugh at MKW.
>>
>>58497635
Mario Kart World has a like 95% attach rate or something absurd
>>
>>58497970
well, it did. ZA has a bundle now so presumably some people will be buying the switch 2 without it packed in, and then we'll see if the 80 dollar price tag turns families away
>>
>>58497978
It's Mario Kart
>>
>>58497635
>make 1 (one) launch title for Switch 2
>suicides it and turns away the entire player base after a month
Every one of those copies should be refunded.

it's so bizarre how nintendo is in a nonlinear 'here's random bullshit just fucking do as much as you want' era that implies they care about player freedom but they're for some reason more autistic than ever when it comes to letting players play outside of their intended method
>>
>>58498110
>make the main selling point of your game be the fact that it's open world and you can drive around anywhere you want (and do so with your friends and family or some shit like that)
>also make it so the game is constantly reminding you you're not actually playing the game itself with a persistent "press start to play" prompt

Say what you will about ZA, but Mario Kart World is the first Mario Kart game I legitimately had zero interest in when it was first announced. It and Donkey Kong were pretty poor killer apps to try and sell the Switch 2 on in my opinion. The Switch 1 launched with Mario Odyssey and Breath of the Wild by comparison. And ZA is also for Switch 1 so it's also not a particularly strong system seller either, but it's baffling how Nintendo was banking on World to be their "killer app" for the system, I know Mario Kart is usually a strong seller, but World in particular feels so uninteresting to me. It's like they gave up on the series' direction, threw their hands in the air and said "fuck it, open world" Not everything needs to be an open world, especially not a fucking Mario Kart game. They should've allowed you to leave your Kart to walk around or something and then they could've sold it as some kid-friendly GTA clone at least.

Breath of the Wild also launched on the Wii U
>>
>>58498462
Breath of the Wild came out on WiiU an entire 5 years after the console already launched, it had no hope of being a system seller at that point since the damage was already done, which is why Nintendo made sure to have it as a Switch launch title
>>
>>58498072
>he believes the griftubers
>>
At least it had a Switch 1 version.
