Well, this whole thing turned out to be a shitshow.
What are the chances it'll flop and nintendo will lower prices.
Well, this whole thing turned out to be a shitshow
You could literally serve a plate of shit to tendies and they'll buy it full price and eat it happily and then ask for seconds, just look at how much Pokemon sells. Unhinged fanbase.
What are the chances it'll flop and nintendo will lower prices.
100%
Global economy is completely different than it was in 2017. Nobody can afford video games anymore especially not at those absurd prices.
Not my fault you live in America lmao
0 lmao
Did we watch the same direct? It looks kino
I care more about the card key garbage than prices. Prices can always go down but you can't fix the game key card shit.
The whole site has been taken over by destitute third world trash, ignore their incessant poorfag moaning
I'm not an mutt and we're literally paying more for it than they are.
They literally lowered 3DS price because people refused to buy it you dumb fucking zoomer. So-called "tendies" are the only ones with any dignity, notice how PS5 doesn't need to lower prices when they sell disc drives on the side and controllers with a screen that only work within 2 feet of the console because Sony niggers buy it anyway. PS+ prices also keep going up and up and they never unsubscribe.
What I don't get is, why are certain people defending this or just trying to justify it?
Besides it really just feels like Nintendo is out of touch economically and back to their smug "winning" era of bad decisions.
What non ports where announced it's mostly garbage mario slope
I'm guessing it's similar shit that microsoft tried pulling when the xbox one was first announced?
I don't think the next two quarters for Nintendo will have be positive but I also don't think they'll be so bad they're forced to drop the price early. They might be. People are pretty mad. I note too that their shareprice has dropped 3% since unveiling their new console. That doesn't suggest people are confident it will sell well.
You say that but WiiU, Virtual Boy, pre price cut 3DS and Labo all flopped
Amazing how you've immediately come to your idol Nintendo's defense and shift the discussion to Sony. As I said, unhinged fanbase.
Kirby Air Riders for one
0. At worst it underperforms, and Nintendo gets a little panicked (this would be good. You never want companies to get too confident).
It's not going to flop. It's the Switch 2. People love the Switch. Kids love the Switch. Parents understand what "2" means.
Bloodborne 2
It's multiplayer.
It won't flop but it won't be as successful as the origin Switch. Its not going to have the same advantages this time
Aren't all fromsoft games technically multiplayer except Sekiro?
What PC games should I look into now that Nintendo is dead?
I can see it go like from GB to GBA sales wise.
Why are tendiesl ike this?
I'm not an mutt and we're literally paying more for it than they are
I live in Great Britain. I never buy physical copies. Digital Switch 2 games are only £60 here. Switch 2 is sub £400.
I have no issues here. Only hope I'm lucky enough to preorder one.
mario
you must pay $450 for the nintendo switch 2
but you also have to pay $80 for the pro controller
you may as well pay $90 for joy-con replacements
you should consider paying $35 for the charging grip
also you must pay $50 for the camera
but keep in mind you must pay for gamechat to use the camera
also you should pay for the new gamecube controller
and don't forget you must pay for the tech demo
you must pay for the upgrade packs
last but certainly not least, don't forget to pay for the games you already bought on the nintendo switch for $90!
hueh language
Don't know whats worse
Yes, but they're calling this an PvPvE game.
So it's multiplayer aspects seem to be much more integral to the game than previous games.
Mommy mommy buy be a Switch 2!
*See prizes*
Let's wait for Christmas sweetheart
Little Timmy didn't get a switch 2 for Christmas
Miyamoto-sama has learned the lost desert technique more money no jutsu from his new friends he's making movies with.
Is there any reason to buy a new pro controller? I dont care about the c button so I will just use my old one
i never buy physical copies
Then you are dumb as a rock
I still hate that they're asking 60 for digital.
I know AAA's are doing that on Steam now. but I hate that as well. And Nintendo never discounts anything.
Plus, these are pretty much PS4 games. Let's be honest. Should we be paying that for PS4 games in 2025?
Kek why? Why would I ever buy a physical copy of a game in 2025? Do explain.
Back buttons at a cheaper price than the Xbox Elite or Dualsense Edge.
Slash the prices of what?
$450 is cheaper than what Sony and MS have been releasing and Mario Kart is the only new game that's $80 for now. Most 3rd parties were planning on starting to push $80 post GTA6 anyway
Like I really don't get it. I get the distaste for an $80 price tag but did people really think it was just going to stop at $70 after 3 years of hyper inflation, when it had already probably sat at 60 for way longer than anyone anticipated?
Physical copies will be mostly done for anyway within the next few years.
But leave it to Nintendo to charge even more for useless pieces of plastic with a single key code in them just so they have full control over what we "own" kek.
Thats neat I guess
If Switch 2 performs like Wii U or 3DS say goodbye to access to your games in ten years.
for $90
This doesn't exist, jew
So far only Square and Capcom has confirmed to use those, games like Cyberpunk is on a 64gb cartridge.
jewtubers and publications are trying to incite fomo to get people to buy it so the chances are low in the short term. Long term the prices will filter the non core audience so the chances of a drop should be higher then
What are the chances it'll flop and nintendo will lower prices
Pretty good I'd say
It's hilarious how beholden to this cycle we seem to be
tendies are going through the first stage of grief
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Steam.
You can always pirate/emulate too.
Aren't most nintendo sales from parents who buy it for their kids? Like, I've seen families were parents have multiple switches lite for their kids. I don't think they're gonna be okay with 80 dollar digital games and a machine costing the price of 2 switch lites. Especially with the overlapping libraries.
charge even more
In Europe
Also, the keycard thing isn't on full price games. It's also a transferable license, so unlike a digital download code which had previously been in the fake physical games, the keycard can give given to family, friends, or resold
If you don't like it just avoid the games that don't have real carts
Steam isn't a game, Panjeet.
$90 games you kike
There is no switch 2 games being sold for $90 in the US
Technically yes, but this is literally an 8 man extraction game
If you don't like it
Not that anon, but I fucking hate this stupid fallacy. It doesn't solve the problem and you juts want to deflect.
If Switch 2 performs like Wii U or 3DS say goodbye to access to your games in ten years.
LOL Nintendo will out live you. Retard.
Wait its a Tarkov-like?
Thats certainly a choice
I'm actually a tendie. Are you?
Been a Nintendo fan since NES.
The simple fact that Nintendo has full control over which games you can play and which not despite paying unbelievable amounts of money for these games is reason enough.
Digital copies don’t belong to you. You are just allowed to play them as long as the responsible company tolerates it.
How does it not solve the problem?
The solution to games that aren't given a physical release or whose physical release only contained a download code was always go not buy them.
The key cards if anything are a way to stop Capcom from constantly trying to circumvent the used game market.
Lol. Not everybody is a broke ass student or a poor blue collar worker with fat wife and 3 kids
Not sure if you've noticed but Americans are busy setting the world economy on fire.
The simple fact that Nintendo has full control over which games you can play and which not despite paying unbelievable amounts of money for these games is reason enough.
Digital copies don’t belong to you.
This is some top tier mental illness. I never bought a single physical for my Switch. Almost a decade later all my games are still there. And I will transfer them all over to my Switch 2. At what fucking point do you think Nintendo are going to "take my games away"?
lmao you can't even fucking play most physical games because they ALL require patches and downloads these days.
You're fucking retarded beyond belief.
What? No. It's still giving them an out. If you have a game key card, that game is only available until they decide to pull the data off the server. Capcom loves this shit, because it means they don't have to make an actual physical version for games like Megaman 9 or 10. Are you stupid?
Based. Going to vote him for his third term.
This is the first time ive been excited for anything nintendo in years desu. Mario kart genuinly looks fun and i want kirby airiders and the new dk reminds me of warioworld
Sweet, accelerate. Let it be known that the world you idiots craved as a global economy is easily disrupted and that any one country could die in only a scant few months and that is simply not ok. The fact that you believe it wouldn't happen if anyone but Trump was president is laughable. The collapse of society is imminent and I'm all for it.
Yes they are worse than physical versions of games, I have said that, but it's still a direct improvement over the download code bullshit due to it being a physical transferable license.
only works with micro SD Express cards
not backwards compatible with micro SD cards even though the spec calls for it
only giving 256GB of internal storage when 512GB flash drives cost <$50
We just got jewed again
they deserve a flop after abandoning new horizons to shit out splatroon 3
the load times are too long, I want faster memory!
faster memory costs more? WHAT?
Maybe one day we'll be read of monkeys like you.
reading comprehension
>>read
Retard identified.
Are you upset that the new PS5 and Xbox require SSD and don't support running games from HDD?
And it is compatible with old micro SD cards, just only for switch 1 games that don't rely on the faster read and write speeds of the express format / faster game carts
this so much
just snoydalits and pcdalits mad that we based brahmin chads will get to fuck white womens and play bestest games in the whole world
snoys absolutely fucking malding kek
There was also literally nothing to play on the 3DS during that time, it was all shovelware. Mario Kart World already make it a much better launch.
It literally said micro SD used for Nintendo switch WILL NOT BE COMPATIBLE.
And it is compatible with old micro SD cards, just only for switch 1 games that don't rely on the faster read and write speeds of the express format / faster game carts

the proof is in the pudding

playstation raises game prices to 80€
crickets
nintendo raises game prices to 80€
internet breaks apart
Explain.
I can’t see it flopping myself but I do hope i’m wrong. Even with the dire economic output now in many places and high price of everything to do with the system I feel like people will just get caught up in the hype and solidify the $80-$90 base price.
Like nothing they showed justified such a large price increase for basically everything, i’m fine with the console price itself but the accessories and games are just trying to rip people off, even people who just want to play their Switch 1 library at a non shit resolution/performance and being nickel and dimed into paying extra money on top of the hundreds they already spent on the system just to take advantage of the improved performance which the system will purposefully throttle unless you pay up for an upgrade.
Explain
Snoys understand how fucked they are. Switch 2 makes every other system irrelevant. Nintendo won. Snoys are desperately trying to find something to shitpost about. They're actually trying to convince themselves Switch 2 will flop lmao

Rich people are rich because they make poor financial choices.
can't use normal microSDXC A1 V90 UHS-1 cards AT ALL
this is such a retarded move
Nintendo is underestimating how much normal people are hurting economically already. Their margins are enough that taking a hit on any one of the areas would've been good enough to make it compelling but a bunch of unforced pricing errors is going to fail the system. I don't see anything that is fatal but it is going to dampen the uptake of the system and damage port making potential which is going to be as dire if not worse than the Series S.
o%
So you can sell it after you finish, and use that money to buy the next game.
The g spot buttons
C-spot*
I don't wanna play Mario for ten years. I found all koroks in like 3 months.
...this guy been spending too much time with putin
No one has friends to use the C-spot. no one is buying it for that
Wanna b my fren?
The $100 gaijin tax on the console's price is hilarious
Everyone but Japan is getting fucked
Zero.tendies will buy anything.
some
There are already switch games that are unplayable without a download. It sucks but I just don’t buy them. Anon Babble is losing their shit over nothing. I bet not a single first party Nintendo game will be affected by this. The biggest cards are 64GB and Nintendo are gods at compressing their games. It’s a nothingburger.
No one wanted to buy those Playstation games, tbf
Nintendo is chargin 16€ per 64Gb cart and 7€ per 0Gb cart. Switch 1 4Gb cart is at 8€ per piece now.
Since they have been forcing it in last decade, I expect all third parties to use the 0Gb carts, and only Nintendo will be able to afford the actual carts (some exceptions like Cyberpunk though).
Well, I predicted Switch 1 was the swansong of physical gaming, and this confirms it. Buyin the console on release, as they are more probable to have exploits in order to pirate them. But won't buy any games, as I don't support digital games (maybe some Asia versions). Consoles died here.
I mostly keep my switch offline, never patch any games and have never ran into any major problems. First party switch games in particular are ridiculously stable. You’re coping hard just like every other digital only tranny on this site does.
Who cares. I only paid around $120 for my Zelda edition Lite. I'm good...
...is what I WANT to say. But holy shit, I've heard amazing things about Xenoblade Chronicles.
Is it worth upgrading for that game? I've done stupider things in the past like buying the Dreamcast just for Phantasy Star Online.
Trump ratfucked them this is ez way of getting back
I did that until I learned about gameshare, and I save more money with that. Switched immediately to full digital late PS3 era, I pay 50% day 1. Will I eventually lose the games when servers die? yes, but at that point I won't care since I mod most systems that are phased out anyway.
Reply to this post if you preordered a Switch 2
What games we playing first, tendie chads?
I just buy boughted the console bro I don't know about all this other gay shit
I hope I get a preorder. Mario Kart is a must have. I have NSO so I get the BotW/TotK updates. Also GameCube games. Gonna be amazing.
Snoys absolutely MALDING
what about xtards?
crazy how nintendo completely ignored all the things that people were asking for with the new switch... id give it 3 months
Who?
Ive gone through 3 pro conrollers the stick drift killed the first 2 and the d pad is pretty much unusable for anything that requires accurate inputs. I'll wait a while to see if there are any issues but the audio jack alone seems worth it because i have 2 tvs
I was only asking for 4k
I am pretty sure that having a base with fanning to allow the console to be more powerful when docked was high in demand, among fans.
jeez is it that dead?
Sonyfags never bad-mouth Sony but will go full overblown with other fanbases
Is like they are holding down every negative thing Sony does and when someone else does it they finally unleash it
lol, zero. you retards will buy it anyway the same you bought snoystation and shitboxes.
Compressed rage over all of those games they aren't playing, because Sony only releases the Last of Us four times a year.
It really felt like the xbox one presentation, except that nintendo is to autistic to read the room and notice the unanonimous bad reception, expect a big flop
unanonimous bad reception
Source?
zero because modern consoomers are literally willing to go into debt just to play their bingshit day one
Probably Mario Kart because the DK game doesn't comes out like 4 weeks later
the unanonimous bad reception
Th reception was overall positive.
did they forget their primary audience is parents buying toys for their kids? this looks targeted at wealthy fanboys
I still expect nintend.rones to buy it anyway, but that voice chat part seriously felt like an old Xbox presentation.
Reminded that the last argument left why gamers didn't buy the Vita was the memory cards pricing. If SD Express Card sells, it will prove they were full of shit since the beginning and the real reason where they boycotted the Vita was because it threatened Nintendo's monopoly on the handheld market.
Enjoy those monopoly prices, you deserve them.
I'm pretty happy the camera is a separate thing, so I can just not have it, and never use one.
Most of the cringe about that come from Nintendo being late to the battle after everyone else, as usual. But it's nevertheless a kind of functionality widely used on all other platforms and it will be used by Switch 2 owners too.
actually I only see games for a mere EIGHTY dollars you JEW!!!!
I didn't buy a Vita because I had no great desire for one. What was even on it?
Maybe Nintendo's own user data collected over past 8 years shows their main audience isn't parents buying toys for their kids?
Gravity rush/daze
How many kids are completing surveys?
I played that on Playstation, and wasn't blown away by it.
SD Express isn't proprietary
0
People are actually excited for the console despite all the whining about prices, $70 games happened years ago and it did nothing to slow down the AAA market, in 2 months no one will even remember this "controversy"
The Switch 2 natively come with a big capacity to begin with, though.
Also, I didn't buy a Vita because I had to chose between that and the 3DS and the 3DS was the console that had all the game I wanted to play with.
SD express isn't a proprietary format you retard
Sorry, can't hear you over the sound of my PRE-ORDER. CHA-CHING!. HAHAHAHAHAHAHOHOHOHOHOHO
I wouldn't say $70 had no effect. PS5 has terrible software sales Sony needs to prop up with microtransactions and adding PS4 SW sales
$80 x 0 games = $0
a lot of grooming was done since then, people will now eat it up
I'm guessing it doesn't let you speak with randoms in your games and it's just a shitcord alternative with probably worse quality audio. That video camera quality looked really awful too, looked worse than the Gamepad camera. I know Nintendo never did this but I miss when games just let you just talk to each other in them instead of being relegated to censored text chat or no chat at all, because games became babysitter replacements. It's all just segregated into Discord groups now.
Nintendo will never lower the price on that thing for the first few years of its release alone, just like their previous console releases.
Iunno. My first reaction is mega flop, but I'm always wrong about these things, sooooo. Huge success I guess.
It's still a premium product and you will pay the premium price for it. Maybe the next Galaxy S will use it, but it will never replace the cheap flash memory used in the old SD card.
Only reason people are mad about this is because they're poorfags! Get a proper job and earn some money and you'll stop caring about this. All this seethe does is out yourself as a failure.
t. already preordered, looking forward to June and playing with non-poorfags
PS5 has horrible software sales because it has been years and Sony still haven't given any reason to even own one, not only it doesn't have proper exclusives but almost everything coming out to it was also out for the PS4, and sometimes it was ONLY out for the PS4 and PS5 only got the a upgrade
Those things will be dirt cheap in a year
fpbp
you forgot that you also have to pay extra for the interactive instruction manual for the console that you bought
Nintendo 64 - HIT
Gamecube - Flop
Wii - HIT
Wii U - Flop
Switch - HIT
Switch 2 - Flop
Nintendo always does this when things go well for them, they decide they can get away with the bare minimum and fuck over fans, then they panic and start putting in effort again
The only exception is pokémon, which never flops so they can make it worse and worse forever
Nope.
All you did was publicly prove you’re a slop consooming retard. Congrats on saving up mcwagiebucks to buy yet another le heckin shit tablet!
You forgot the NES and SNES
It won't be reduced in price when China has 54% tariff and Vietnam has 46% tariff, countries where the Switch 2 is assembled
Not even legit. Those "flops" weren't even flops, just didn't sell as many as the PS2;et al. Nintendo has never lost video game money.
It will once it flops harder than the Wii u
It use a PCIe lane, it's a gimped MicroSD-sized SSD, it will never be cheap.
The n64 was not a hit, even the snes was hardly a hit
I thought it was kind of underwhelming at first, but then I realized that they are giving people a way to play AAA third party titles on a portable system for only $450 and that actually has tremendous appeal. It could become the defacto system for budget gamers and gamers on the go.
Wrong. Gamecube flopped so hard it fforced Nintendo to cater to casuals. Wii U bombed so hard they had to sell it at a LOSS
The Wii U had a dumb confusing name, whereas the Switch 2 tells you all you need to know. It'll sell extremely well regardless of what anyone has said. Haven't you noticed that people are spending way more on phones?
Nintendo 64 - Flop

my head-canon has meaning
Not really, bro.

They all do that. Do keep up.
These aren't really equivalent.
PS5 games being 80€ already sucks. I only got one game at full price and opt to wait (it's easy as there aren't many interesting games on PS5 in the first place lol) for price drops. Such price drops won't happen for 1st party Nintendo games.
Another issue is MK World being 90€. Sure, I'll get the bundle, but you can bet other big games like Zelda and Smash will also be 90€ (they were already 70€ on Switch when everything else was 60).
Hopefully Nintendo will announce a new voucher program for Switch 2 games. But I'd rather buy physical.
We all knew Anon Babble trannies would lose their shit over the Switch 2 but Holy fuck lol this is glorious.
Not high, anon. Not high.

It sold less than the PSP. Funny how the 'tendies consider the PSP a failure when compared to the NDS but shut their mouth up when its about the 3DS.
think they would have showed it if it were the case
I highly highly doubt nintendo would allow that
i'll try to pre order it and if i get it, cool.
if not then i'll wait till the end of the year or something.
didn't have a switch 1 so lots of stuff to catch up on.
nintendo fanboys are like a cult. Nintendo is basically the Apple of the gaming world. They will eat it up.
Sony strives to make intensive realistic games with cutting edge graphics.
Nintendo makes cartoon platformers
Which do (You) think should cost more?
can i play the Nintendo Classics in Japanese?
literally no one calls the psp a failure
The games? I can just go to the theater if I wanted to watch a movie
You don't understand how disillusioned some 'tendies can be.
I'm still mad $60 became the standard for a video game. Who started that?
I fully don't believe in "inflation" as an argument, by the way. Games are crazy over priced, no matter which way you slice it. They charge what they can get away with.
If you make a game with a budget of 3 million(which is apparently considered the barrier of entry for AAA), sell copies for 5 dollars, and sell 1 million copies, you have already made a profit.
They showed there were parental control, which might mean they intend it to replace their current system.
which might mean they intend it to replace their current system
what current system?
Its not a cult if the product is actually good.
i'll try buying everything used for 35 bucks
even that feels like a lot coming from PC
fail incoming
The worst thing is the no real physical games thing. Then the high game prices. And after that the overpriced hardware addons. Console price is a bit underwelming but you only need to pay it once.
there are still physical games.
the prices are high though yeah.
the one used to play online on the switch.
don't get me wrong the game license cartridge thing is shit, but they do have physical games. just not all of them.
forgot about that. lol. we'll see I guess but I feel like it would've been a point to mention in the direct.
oh they did lower the prices, for regionlocked version exclusively for the japanese living in japan
dirty gaijin piggu have to pay foreigner tax
you are welcome :)
Pretty much, they even raid non tendie threads to make sure only nintendo threads are allowed
Because nobody wants to talk about birthrates. We barely have a generational replacement, once we are dead most hobbies/companies will sink. Me, my brothers and cousins bought a lot of games but most of us dont have kids to carry out, not to mention the older we get some of us may move on from videogames
So instead of wanting gamers to have kids they want people to be childless and pay more (which would still be less money)
We don't think about you at all.
Literally what are they even playing on the PS5 these days? I have one, and I don't know.
You still on that Astro Bot thing?
Still waiting for the Shadow of the Colossus guy to make another game that you can play through once and pretend isn't boring?
Nintendo India has arrived xir
Indians have a lot of kids. Make the games cheap, so they can buy them.
When will we get the OLED version and how much will it cost? $550?
GBA - Flop
Retard
We don't think about you at all
Sure, "buy an ad" or mods removing non nintendo games threads that are too popular
Ps5
Who the fuck cares retard? Pcfag. You tendies are as much cultists as snoys
Does OLED consume more power than LCD?
It looks like they're targeting the handheld PC audience with these prices, but why the fuck would I buy this piece of shit when the Legion Go 2 will be twice as powerful, have OLED, and most importantly support piracy out of the box?
Good morning, xir!
It was as much as a "flop" like the original Nintendo Switch presentation was.
It consumes less, tardo.
I also have a PC.
Legion Go 2 will be twice as expensive
FTFY
SIR PLEASE FUCK THE DK FEMALE MONKEY SIR
PLEASE BUY THE GAME LOOK AT ZELDA ASS
OMG I NEED MORE POKEMON THREADS ASKING QUESTIONS EVERY HOUR
damn it surpassed the gameboy's sales in the year 3600
There's physicals, yeah, but you just know it's only going to be for the lesser games.
Shit like new Pokemons, new Zeldas, basically anything that Nintendo doesn't want leaking, they're gonna lock it up hard behind those download code carts.
And it will STILL be a better value. Even assuming I buy games legit on Steam, after buying 10 games, the Go 2 will have paid for the difference.
$80 games
hysterical
the amount of seethe coming from Nintendo cultists is so so sweet
not even the casual goyim can defend this anymore, thats how low Nintendo has sunk, lower than Sony even.
You are poor and brown sir
Please redeem the switch sir
snoys make unhinged comments again
Steam
nice, I love that game too, my hirsute third world friend
Would it have added to the cost of production the console?
And it'll still print money. And then GTA6 will be emboldened to be at least $120, and it'll print money too, emboldening the rest of the interest to hike to high heaven.
And it'll fucking work because everyone's already been conditioned to spend big thanks to mobile slop.
The bot is here
Fpbp
Pokemon isn't really shit, though. It's just fine. Sometime it's better, but it's never worse than passably okay.
Kids can continue playing switch 1.
I'm not defending the pricing. Can't deny Nintendo still has games I want to play though.
So that's your advice just keep using the switch 1?
LEAVE THE MULTI TRILLION COMPANY ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the same recycled slop over and over
grim
and your cult actually has the balls to shit on Fromsoft using the same argument when it actually applies to Nintendo themselves lol
No one has, they don’t open preorders for another week
That said, I probably will if I can get it on Amazon instead of the Nintendo store, I’ve got 500 cabucks in gift cards there
Ye. Personally I still haven't even hacked mine despite it being paperclipable early revision.
Snoy tried doing it too with Concord but they failed for some odd reason.
Snoy wishes it had its own unhinged fanbase.
You can't say this when Sony's only new game is Astro Bot and everything else is regurgitations like The Last of Us Remastered (again).
ya but snoy
rent free
its sold out everywhere within minutes so what do you think?
so just like Nintendo?
doesn't refute
lmao failure cope
do nintendr.ones really think everyone who points out that they're retarded is a sony.gger
They make the same game over and over, except I'm also incredibly mad they made DK different.
and also where the FUCK is Starfox/F-Zero/some other shit I pretend to care about for internet clout????
You people are just mad no matter what.
Every modern Nintendo game I've played has been really fun. With Splatoon in particular being a breath of fresh air, and Pikmin 4 being like an even bigger and better expansion on Pikmin 2.
The ones I don't want to play, I just don't play.
yeah and not everyone is able to sacrifice 80 dollars for fucking mario kart and another 20 for a tech demo. whats your point?
yes this has been the case for years after they have taken over the moderation board and effectively ru(i)n this whole board
Yes, exactly. It's industry fucking standard, and everyone is in a mad dash to see how extreme the prices can go until console gaming becomes a rich luxury that no one except the wealthy can afford.
The games will still be shit of course, just like how all other luxuries are shit, because at that point it stops being about the games and starts being about "look what I just spent my money on, ohohohohoho!"
its bloodborne on switch!!!
it looks like bloodborne, but due to international copyright law, it's not!
I mean, genuine PCfags are too smug and fat to care, and Xbox purists went extinct.
We can tell who it is who is sitting there seething.
To be fair, sometimes it's weirdo Sega fanboys, who still exist for some reason. I had to see that to believe it. I think they reproduce through Sonic fanfiction now.
Reddit space
Marketer post
genuine pcfags (me) are pretty interested in this.
120fps mariokart sounds pretty good.
It's only snoys that are upset, like normal.
good morning Nintendo India sirs
Deck 2 is going to rape Shittendo hard
There is no such valid call-out thing as reddit spacing. People on Anon Babble have always relied on paragraph, whereas reddittor tend to make wall of space.
People say
reddit space
when they have no actual argument.
The whole site has been taken over by destitute third world trash, ignore their incessant poorfag moaning
Yeah they're too poor so they pirate everything and their PCs were just barely enough to run Switch at 10FPS. Now the Switch 2 is too powerful so they're throwing a fit.
deck2 is literally years away.
But I'll get one on release, deck1 performance was too crappy by the time it released in australia and I got a Lenovo Legion Go instead.
I genuinely refused to believe the switch 2 could possibly flop but after the direct yesterday I’m not so sure now. $70-$80 games WILL be a deal breaker for a lot of people
PCfag here
Switch 2 looks like ass and the exclusives will run better on my PC much like the switch
The fuck even is a deck 2?
pretty much
any real PCGOD is going to emulate Shitch 2
tendies can only piss and shit in seethe
Likely zero, it won't be breaking world records like the switch but it will still sell gangbusters and when GTA 6 Standard Edition costs $100 people might even praise Nintendo. Grim days ahead.
What I’m confused is why I’m seeing people defend the software prices because “they’re portable!” Historically speaking portable games were always LESS money than their counterparts
70 was looking to be industry standard by now anyway, but 80 is absolutely pushing it because it's threatening to accelerate the increase even further even sooner.
Nintendon't AGAIN
I think $90 (or $80 whatever tf it is) games is absurd and so is having to pay extra to play your backwards compat games with the actual fps your hardware can run them at. This shit is so alien to me as a PCfag.
also I don't think Mario Kart was shown to be 120 FPS
eh, am idort.
will buy switch2, play the games then emulate them even better later.
the new truly fears the samurai. Yesterday they out jewed the jew
its Nintendo India employees, of course they will defend their paycheck masters.
$450 for the console is fine. $70-$80 for the games is the breaking point for me anyway
Not all Switch 1 games are paid, it's so far exclusively for games where their upgrade doubles as a DLC, like Mario Party or Forgotten Land.
BotW and TotK are conditionally paid because they're Nintendo's heavy hitters and they also want to get people interested in using the Nintendo App.
It's not $450 anymore with orange retards tariffs
Depends, how soon is an emulator expected? I doubt it'll be a paperclip tier easy exploit this time, and it's also worthless if it happens 10 years after the console's out. And how powerful will a PC have to be to emulate it?
if you're a child that might be true, if not, play more videogames.
I’m literally looking at bestbuy.com right now and it’s listed at $449.99
Probably wont be properly emulatable for a while.
I'm rooting for you, because I like getting free things too, but that's not just going to arrive over night. Certainly wont work on your deck.
5090
hardware finally catches up to ps5 and xbox series x
have the galls to charge $80-90 for new games
If nintendo fanboys buy the shit out of this, the console industry is doomed. We can blame Nintendo fanboys for being retards.
It is well and truly over.
I wonder how fast the carts actually are.
Switch1, the carts were slower than a decent A2 microsd card by quite a lot.
The gamecard bus is only 25MB/s and mask rom carts can do 25MB/s random q1 at all times - so that's sorta nice, but NAND carts can't (also NAND carts will eventually die) and 25MB/s sucks for sequential since a decent MicroSD can do that at 160MB/s+ (though switch tops out at 100MB/s for SD - still 4x faster)
I can't imagine people having genuine opinion if they disagree with me.
It doesn't matter because most games are just going to require you to install the game.
I do'nt even play Pokemon games in the first place.
Even if Nintendo didn't do this, we were fucked later down the line when GTA6 was projected to be at least $100.
But now we're absolutely fucked, because Switch 2's inevitable success will convince GTA6 to shoot for even higher, maybe $120 outright, and then when THAT sells guaranteed units, the rest of the industry will follow suit on what the biggest trailblazers successfully pulled.
Nintendo has always been the real reason why gaming got so shit
they've been the reason that the additional tens of million normalgoyims came flooding into the gaming sphere and as a result we got way more censorship, DEIslop and casualized garbage
ignoring all those LE SNOY!!! posts if any bit of legit criticism appears
hmm
what are Gran Turismo, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, Fifa and GTA3?
Stop treating your controllers like shit. I have 2 pro controllers and bith work perfectly after hundreds of hours of use. Also, the dpad sensitivity can be fixed eaily with a little tape on the inside.
they've been the reason that the additional tens of million normalgoyims came flooding into the gaming sphere
Nintendo's consoles weren't the place to play FIFA, Madden, CoD and Battlefield.
Switch isn't the biggest platform for Fornite, either.
Nobody in my poorfag country can afford it. It's basically a luxury item now. And those tend to be stolen from stores all the time.
Still not proprietary.
I think Rockstar is over estimating how much their fans are willing to pay for a new game. Sure they have lots of fans. But most fans will just wait until the price drops to a reasonable price. $100 is too rich for most people.
The problem with first party Nintendo games is that they don't drop the price. Once in awhile you will get a sale, but that's it.
those things were already well beyond their peaks before Switch released ( with the exception of Fortnite and GTA V of course ) so no Switch still had a massive effect on this shit
He's talking about the NES. Gaming in the west would have died and become a nerd-only niche if the NES didn't revive the industry.
NES
reviving anything
It won't flop hard enough for that unfortunately
Yes? It literally saved American gaming from the crash after Atari got too greedy and fucked up literally everything with overpriced slop that no one was buying.
Sounds familiar, don't it?
Right. I'm saying the PS1 and 2 were where normiegeddon really took off. an argument could also be made for The Sims. Everyone played the Sims at the time. It's like the one game that transcends age and gender barriers.
The Wii was pretty much a six month fad. Who is still playing Wii Sports? Who still wants those kinds of motion control games? Games basically stopped selling on the Wii, apart from to the "core gamer audience" after the first year.
We know shill
UUUUUHHHHH GOOD GAMES BAD, ACTUALLY!!!!
I don't care. You're a fag, and you haven't played any of these games.
Tendies getting desperate KEK
No, they showed that the games that just have higher resolution and framerates with no new content count as "Switch 2 Editions" that you have to pay for. You can only play them at Switch 1 framerates if you don't pay up.
nta but the last good Nintendo game was FE:Three Houses
Show me where they said Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are paid upgrades.
Protip: You can't.
plays one of the Nintendo franchises where every game really is the same
Well there's your problem.
I can't help you with your anime JRPG habit. Those have been the same basic shit since the 90's.
Did anyone else find the cripplebot game in very poor taste?
But don't you love when they spam their morbid obese deviantart fanarts???
People didn't buy the Vita because it was a nogames machine just like the PSP and every other Sony device after the PS2.
The reality is that Nintendo is going to have a bunch of high quality games you can only get on switch, and people will do whatever they gotta do to play those games.
No i thought it was pretty cool desu. Made a disabled sport a game without making the characters black disfigured trannies. Could be fun
I just wondered who the hell would want that? Make a new wii (switch) sports or something
holy zoomer
It's hilarious that they're making this a launch title when literally no one will be playing it, everyone's going to be focused on Mario Kart World between now and the end of the Switch 2's lifespan.
sir you should try harder
your handler isn't going to be happy
So is physical just a redeemable code on the cartridge but there's no actual game on that same physical piece of media? what the hell? that's awful.
Yeah, kind of. Are you allowed to turn disabilities into video games? Seems like someone should be mad about that.
Nobody will be able to afford consoles and games as the global economy collapses because of an orange retard
Kinda, but also the designs are too grey and depressing
rich people have the best interest for the common man.
How many Google Cards Rajeet?
>playstation raises game prices to 80€
I thought their games were $70, I dont really pay attention to what sony is doing tho
It's a loisense you can lend, or sell.
It's an option for publishers. Nintendo's games are on carts like normal
Europe went from 60 to 80-90 ish euros when PS5 launched, we never really had 70 euro games.
holy snoy cope
I genuinely don't understand why people think the guy famous for firing people is going to create more jobs
holy shit how many months did tendies boast about Switch 2 having a backwards compatibility ( this time for sure gayz!!! )
and called anyone shitting on them for being delusional a snoy??
lol!
and now you're going to pay for the same games you already own once again goyim!
oink oink piggie
So nintendo is just following the trend?
If so they did a poor job because the impression most will get is that the 80-90 thing is in the US too
Their share price dropped after the Switch 1 announcement as well, though.
20% ON THE EU, 34% ON CHINA, 46% ON VIETNAM, 24% ON JAPAN, 49% ON CAMBODIA, 25% ON SOUTH KOREA, 36% ON THAILAND, 47% ON MADAGASCAR, 38% ON GUYANA
If you make a game with a budget of 3 million(which is apparently considered the barrier of entry for AAA),
did you miss a 0? 3 million is not AAA
$20 for a game that's lovingly remastered with new content is well worth the money compared to the dogshit lazy slop sony does.
Why are you basing your perception of a man based on a role they played on a TV show?
Kirby Air Riders literally makes me not care about anything else, good or bad, and makes the Switch 2 a day one buy for me.
Wait...this shit released in less than 3 months and the games still look like Switch 1? For $500? I mean it does have Fortnite day 1....but my PC can already run it Ultra 1080p 120fps...yeah naw I'm just going to save that $ for steam summer sale or something, fuck greedy shitendo.
I miss linking gameboys with jesus
lovingly
why do Switchlets use this word so much?
what the fuck
Nintendo is the last game publisher that actually cares about it's gamers and put their soul and passion into their games. The only people who hate them are snoys and xcucks.
replacing the love their fathers didn't give them with corporate parasocialism
It does have backwards compatibility though.
It also has remasters, which I guess you can buy if you're into that, and you want to play BoTW with supposedly better graphics (I couldn't tell).
just don't buy games that are key cards.
so far its only bravely default and street fighter 6.
Bold to assume they even have fathers in the first place, most American families these days are single mother households.
Nintendo is the last game publisher that actually cares about it's gamers and put their soul and passion into their games.
its genuinely sad i can't even guess if this ironic or not, judging by tendie cult loyalty and high HRT consumption among them, i guess it is unironic.
grim
It will never flop
Nintendo is the Apple of video game company
So what's the floor for AAA?
UFO 50's pretty neat. I've been playing it recently
muh snoy
muh tendies
why can’t japs into PC instead of fake jewware?
expect a big flop
Said that about the switch
Nips are easily confused by pc. Zip files scare them.
My Switch is almost broken so I might just end up getting the Switch 2 just to have something to play my old Switch games on, €20 for upgraded BOTW is a fine price honestly.
Whether or not I'll check out the new games is another question, I don't care about Mario Kart and €80 for a DK game is simply too much, Prime 4 will probably only be 10 hours long too so that's another game I'll have to ignore.
how is your switch breaking..?
Even the Wii U had 50 mil plus units sold within 5 years, 2012 to 2017. Do you retards solely think you HATING Nintendo will kill it? Not even NINTENDO can kill Nintendo.
100% nobody will be buying it in the United States. $670 is out of everyone's price range.
The reason they keep shitting out low-effort Pokémon games that are far below the industry's standards (when they shouldn't be because they have all the money in the world and even more than that) is exactly because you stupid faggots keep validating their bullshit by buying it and saying it's "fine"
Gold Chinese quality chud
It's literally breaking apart, both of the Joy-Cons are fucked, the table stand broke off when I dropped i about a year ago, I can only play games on it with the Pro Controller.
the gaijin tax exists because jap yen is shit now and everyone would just mass import them from japan
will my 8bitdo work on this shit?
it's 30 bucks instead of 90
lovingly remastered with new content
All of Nintendo's "lovingly remastered" games with new content turned out shit.
Nintendo is the Disney of gaming, they just had a flop with the Wii U. Sony is the actual Apple of gaming, the PS3 was overpriced trash with one game and every multiplat was visibly worse than the 360 version, the PS4 and PS5 had no games, yet the consoles all still sold very well because of Snoy brand loyalty. The fact that a piece of shit like the PS5 has sold 75m+ units is utterly laughable.
Switch 2 won't be a flop, but I'm totally convinced that Nintendo hasn't planned the console's target audience well. The exorbitant prices of everything are just one part of it, the other is the fact that Switch 2 is full of things that you only expect in "pro gamers' builds". The 1080p/120hz/HDR screen is insane for a handheld normally seen more as something for the casual audience. The fucking Deck, which is seen as a niche product, has a much more modest screen, and even the luxury Deck options with OLED screens don't have the same resolution and refresh rate.
What was Nintendo thinking, raising the specs like this? You see it in everything else, the idea of high tech and premium product (even with fucking steel buttons generating a fancy magnetic locking system) makes the Switch 2 seem like the luxury option for the hardcore gamer who takes things very seriously, when we know that Nintendo's products are more for casual fun.
In short: Nintendo will realize its mistake and overhaul the hardware soon, severely reducing the cost and final "quality", making it more in line with what the average consumer expects.
The best part is that it will only perform to those specs playing fucking Mario 2. Trusting in that 120 FPS number is like thinking Switch 1 is a 30 FPS console.
completely ignores the wii u and gamecube
normalfags are the bulk of customers, don't take it out on the fans
Snoy wishes it had its own unhinged fanbase.
they do though, it's no different
What are the chances it'll flop
In Japan there's zero chance it will, overseas however there's actually a chance it's the Wii U all over again.
and nintendo will lower prices.
I can't see current year Nintendo lowering prices on anything, I'd be happily surprised if they did but a reminder that they're charging 5 bucks for that interactive manual for it.
does Switch 1 games even work on Switch 2?
this is more confusing than it needs to be, i was thinking of just buying the console and not buy any software, but if only "switch 2 edition" games actually work on it why bother
They explained it in the reveal. Switch 1 games work on Switch 2. "Switch 2 editions" are Switch 1 games which have new features added to them along with the performance improvements you'd expect.
"Switch 2 editions" are Switch 1 games which have new features added to them
not necessarily
Bait and Switch
It will work, but it's a mix of the thing running natively and emulation, basically the same thing they did with Mario Sunshine on Switch 1. What this means is that Nintendo will probably have to make a catalog afterwards more or less like what Steam does with Deck, saying if games are perfectly playable, if they're only partially compatible, or if they don't run at all.
nintendo will lower prices
Nah, you'll wish you were paying sticker price. Cheeto Hitler is going to slap a $150 tariff no that bih
Rest in piss Nintendo
After Donald's new taxes the console will cost $600 and games will be $120.
Back to Anon Babble, faggots.
Based, video games are bad for you.
The N64 barely managed to outsell the Saturn and that console only had Japan to lay on.
Talking about the cost of videogames.
It'll perform like the ps5 where it'll take half a generation for the poor decisions to unravel. It is only now that we are realising the playstation brand is dead and ps5 sales are stagnating.
No, you're using it as an excuse to discuss politics. You could do the same with any product, because 99% of products purchased in America are produced outside of America.
Yes I could, but this is the videogames board, so I'm talking about videogame products. You see how this works?
Yeah, and you're trying to turn the thread into politics that don't actually have anything to do with videogames by bringing up LE ORANGE MAN TARIFFS!!!!!1 so we can STOP discussing videogames and instead argue over Trump.
What this means is that Nintendo will probably have to make a catalog afterwards more or less like what Steam does with Deck, saying if games are perfectly playable, if they're only partially compatible, or if they don't run at all.
That's exactly what Microsoft and Sony have been doing as well.
i only play on handheld and wanted bigger fonts for my 6 niggas in a row games, damnit.
does anyone actually know why it's expensive in the West? the Japanese one is actually cheap and will be a giga success there once again
It'll be a 3DS situation I think. Slow adoption early on due to being overpriced, but won't outright flop due to being salvaged with a price cut. It will ultimately sell far less than Switch 1. But then with the global economy getting ACKed who knows really?
Zero.
Wii U died on arrival and their only way to stay alive was saving the 3DS. Switch 1 was an absolute success they can do anything they want.
does anyone actually know why it's expensive in the West?
Tariffs
Poor people don't like being reminded that they're poor
Just ignore them
What are the chances it'll flop and nintendo will lower prices.
High. Happened with the 3DS in with the first four months. Only sold 3M units and Nintendo panicked. Cut the price from $250 > $180 and the early adopters only got a handful of old ass roms as compensation (no you couldn’t choose which ones).
The region locked one in Japan is cheap because the yen is in the pits and they need the Nips to be able to afford it. The unlocked one is more expensive, about the same price as the US one. They don't want everyone across the world buying up all the Japanese Switches because they're cheaper via exchange rate.
What are the chances it'll flop and nintendo will lower prices.
Zero. There is no limit anymore to how bad things can get before whales stop throwing money at the game industry.
The success of mobile gacha "games" was the canary in the coalmine for how hopelessly addicted and spineless the average consumer is nowadays and the rest of the industry has responded in kind.
I wish the mods shared your sentiment.
It had the newest street fighter…
but why did Europe get fucked too
What are the chances it'll flop
It's a new nintendo. It's got Mario. It'll print money like the rest.
I'm not gonna buy it, but I'm not delusional enough to think that normalfags won't eat shit with a grin.
How about the rest of the world being able to afford it? Why the fuck is everybody else subsidizing the Japanese consumer?
Poor people also like to boast about how rich they are through their display of cheap consumer trash. I remember seeing 10 years olds and third world retards doing this.
Nice wall of virginity.
they follow the US economy (for the moment, Europe will likely decouple along with everyone else which will finally fuck the dollar and 'merican hegemony over once and for all)
Supply chains.
Lmao look at the treehouse stream right now
Raise the price
Absolute madman.
The success of mobile gacha "games"
You realize the gacha market is much like the GaaS market and is a graveyard filled with hundreds of corpses and the sole dozen survivors standing at the top?
so a slightly bigger resolution but my game will probably run like shit, for $450
Boomer take.
At best it'll pull a 3DS and drop prices
At worst, it'll just power through because they don't have to care and can just set a new standard.
there's a difference between buying a nintendo and buying all that useless shit lets be real
Oh no no no no ahahahahhaaaa
buy second hand copy of Switch 1 game, pay for the subscription for upgrades
buy second hand copy of Switch 1 game, pay for the upgrade individually
buy a new copy of the Switch 2 edition
which makes the most sense?
They're just emulating their idols, the rich who boast about how rich they are through their display of gaudy overpriced trash.
As long as people don't buy this year, they will lower the prices to remain competitive
You're paying more than us.
So? None of these "games" deserve to be successful and the fact that any of them don't flop on arrival is an indictment of the modern consumer. They're all predatory scams.
Broke niggas
Watch them pull a DSP and announce that "alotta peepul are telling us to raise the price, so we will" while ignoring the rest of the chat.
list pc specs
video games and consoles should not cost and arm or a leg. do you really think parents are going to start buying 80 dollar games for their kids
Comet observatory is playing on the stream in the background right now btw lol
What, like Instagram influencers who take out loans to pretend they are rich? The only people who do this sincerely are literally low iq monkeys who have stumbled into money through inheritance or being an entertainer. Real rich people don't want anyone to know because it marks you as a target for crime or exploitation. They are also rich enough to no longer value wealth because they went down that road and figured out it isn't special or worth boasting about
It'll do perfectly fine and Anon Babble will seethe for another 6-8 years.
Fgc
Ah so you're broke as fuck and overcompensating. The behaviour makes sense now.
Unfortunately that's Nintendo's core demographics so what's your point?
It doesn't matter if "everyone" is broke, what matters is if the core market is. You need everyone to be buying something, not just 10% of the market.
Also, stop larping like you're not a poorfag, you wouldn't be here if you had a real job.
That's called being on Anon Babble, anon.
I totally agree. A Nintendo Switch 2 should only be $99, the price of a comparable mobile device. And games should be $19.99.
That's TOO cheap
I'd prefer a $200 console and $40-$60 games
Real rich people don't want anyone to know
no longer value wealth because they went down that road and figured out it isn't special or worth boasting about
LMAO, I bet you eat up all those stories about millionaires wearing second hand clothes and riding beater bikes. They're just as performatively rich as ghetto rich types, they're just not performing for (You), but rather for their fellow rich and you can't see most of it because it's a different ecosystem.
well yes v/intendogaf is real after all
Xenoblade Chronicles games are good, but they're not like genre-defining.
Emulate the Switch 1 game on PC for free, with better graphics and FPS than the upgraded switch 2 edition.
$500 for a device for 10 years of support is amazing, meanwhile with PC you replace your 1,000 USD graphic card every year
lol none? Has Apple ever lowered the prices?
$500 only gets you the hardware with no games or online connectivity, each game will cost you $100.
My PC has been more powerful than the switch 2 for the last 8 years, and even new release titles can be found for half the price of switch games, even if you're too gay to pirate.
My old PC has a fucking R9 290 and is emulating Switch games in twice the native resolution in 60 FPS, as I found out when I took it back out of a closet while my new PC was in the shop.
Nigga, real rich fucks do the exact same shit with their peers. They just believe that kind of juicy stuff is "too good" for the commoners to know about, so it only comes up in high society gatherings.
The reason all this shit like DEI exists? It's solely because the rich have always held a culture of "look at how powerful and rich I am, and how many companies I own, all while being as pure as the whitest snowflake!" and it's adapted accordingly to our modern times.
Meaning that so far 100% of 3rd party games are key cards, uh... well, that sounds pretty bad.
But enough about Snoyboys
You're forgetting the $15 joycon straps
amazon.com
Nintendo is clearly putting the difference in the price of the console down to games and accessories. I believe Nintendo is selling the console at a subsidized price because it hasn't found any way to improve the Switch considerably without driving prices through the roof. I guess when people get their hands on the Switch 2 and check out the parts it will become clearer, but I bet Nintendo would need to sell each Switch for close to $500.
Retards actually believe this
People are falling over themselves to buy graphics cards at over 40% msrp. The cost of a switch 2 isn't that much different than a PS5 or a Series X. This thing will be sold out for the better part of 2025, if not into 2026.
All the zoomers and reddit activists protesting the price makes me want to support it. Feels bad being a brainless contrarian.
already spent my 510
this is the contrarian board after all
nta but the core audience for Switch are thirdies and single mothers with kid or just families with lower budgets to afford a proper gaming PC or simply do not want to waste a lot of money for shitty kids toy, you're living in a different reality if you believe otherwise.
Feels bad being a brainless contrarian.
and you should feel bad
Tendies need to get a fucking job.
There are 2 months to the release, if you can't save 500 in that time then you need to worry about more important things than the bing bing wahoo machine 2
complains about contrarians
is an actual contrarian himself
kill yourself zoomer
You're telling me about stories while then parroting stories about famous rich celebrities and oil barons getting into obnoxious, childish dick measuring contests. I grew up around rich people, nobody bought obnoxious lambos and they never talked about money, they buy non descript cars, clothes and accessories, they store their wealth in large physical or financial assets and keep it a secret till they pass it into their kids in order to help them start businesses or when they need to buy their own houses and assets. They also didn't spoil themselves or their kids by buying copious amounts of McDonald's tier bullshit toys, they pay for their kids to have interesting hobbies and promote activities that build connections and character. This is a completely different world than ghetto trash buying a cheap gold chains, naming their kids mercedes while boasting about how many switch games and Nvidia GPUs they own.
this
ninteniddlers wouldn't understand
buying an overpriced tablet with no games for over 500 eurobucks
Yuropoor friend, people are upset because it's overpriced, not because they can't afford it
510€ product
no free shipping
fuck any store that does this dumb ass bullshit
there are adults unironically buying Mario Kart or Dunkey Kang or handhelds in general
ordered from 2 sites already. will resell or return, don't think i want it. I didn't even have the first switch
Donkey Kong is based
ordered from 2 sites already. will resell or return, don't think i want
why did you order the slop in the first place already retard
You're a poorfag who thinks middle class people are rich because to you they are
You could literally serve a plate of shit to tendies and they'll buy it full price and eat it happily and then ask for seconds, just look at how much Pokemon sells. Unhinged fanbase.
True
Well, this whole thing turned out to be a shitshow.
Also true
will be sold out and going to resell on ebay. EZ extra 200$ for zero amount of work
I don't think that's the Switch's main audience, but it was definitely something more casual. And I personally think that was the Switch's strongest point. I have a decent PC, so I don't see any reason to have a PS5 or Xbox, but I have a Switch too, it's a handheld with a price that I consider acceptable, where I can play some Japanese games or things that I don't usually have on PC, sometimes even paying cheaply for games by exploring the sales.
The Switch 2 doesn't seem to occupy the same niche. It's an expensive product with expensive games that's trying to offer a more sophisticated experience. Honestly, the Switch 1 seems more interesting to me at the moment, and I'll only see the Switch 2 again if Nintendo makes a lite version...
We need to change as a society. I should be aware if someone in interacting with is subhuman cattle who buys $80 games. I do not consent to intervention with these animals.
You should be forcibly branded like the cattle you are, so someone can take one glance at you and say, “oh he’s mindless consumerist pig” and then disregard them. I’m not being ironic. People should know if you’re a slop consumer.
Maybe you should get a job.
Everything is more expensive thanks to the idiots that keep printing trillions of dollars.
You're a retard whose only context with rich people is stories about them eating babies and stealing their adrenochrome while buying yachts to dick wave and have sex parties. You're so poor you think money actually significantly alters people's behaviour and transforms them all into degenerate child rapists.
where is the treehouse thread

SAAR DO NOT REDEEEEEEEM
Yeah it was weird. I expected some sort of gimmick game like wii sports but now with the addition of the whole mouse gimmick or some RTS game or whatever that was only comfy on PC.
But this just felt like a weird limitation that they settled because how else would they convey mouse movement back and forth for a normal biped player? In the first place, the mouse gimmick for wheelchair is stupid because you could achieve the same result with gyro controls rocking it back and forth. Honestly such a bleak and shitty looking game, I don't know what they were smoking to make such concept.
Tell me who was the target audience for lambos before ghetto rich influencers even existed again? And speaking of yachts, I guess all those yachts just aren't real, because rich people obviously don't buy them.

Money doesn't "transform" behavior, retardbro, it enables it. It's a deinhibitor, same as alcohol. Some people get overly aggressive or overly friendly when they're drunk. Not all rich people are pedos, but the pedos that get rich don't have to keep it on the down low. And other rich people build schools because that's what they can do with their money now. The upper class has never behaved how you describe it in your fantasies even once in the history of humanity, because the prerequisite of being part of the upper class is living like a part of the upper class. The upper class doesn't need to hide its wealth from the criminals that can't touch them, that's literal middle class behavior.
50/50 I'd say. But either way there isn't a chance in hell it'll do that all that well. It'll probably do okay in Japan, but the rest of the world will mostly tell it to fuck off or shrug their shoulders and pass it up.
So-called "tendies" are the only ones with any dignity
Yet you took offense to that post, why?
It will flop because 40 years old normies won't understand it's a different console, just like the Wii U.
That didn't save the Wii U though, but I don't think this will flop as hard as the that system mainly due to Nintendo handhelds never outright flopping partially due to having mainline Pokemon. Rather I'm expecting it to under perform like the 3DS did in its first year and hopefully Nintendo course correcting again because they don't have any other system to fall back on.
I sincerely hope, for your sake, that's not actually your picture.
Repeating something makes it true. The more you repeat it the more true it becomes.
A bicycle in Argentina costs more than the Switch 2
>you may as well pay $90 for joy-con replacements
may as well
They're inevitably going to drift again since Nintendo cheaped out, again.
Parents who don't want their kids to be bullied for being poor (which reflects on them) will.
meanwhile with PC you replace your 1,000 USD graphic card every year
You have zero clue what you're blabbering on about. You never even owned a computer in your life, dumbass phone kiddy.
Wow! I didn't know we had the specifics of the joycons already! Source?
I talked to the miyamoto living in your asshole and he said nothing about hall effect despite that being an easy pr win if they were actually using them, which means you're fucked.
I'll probably just play the zelda's again because I played botw on cemu years ago on a jank shitty pc
The same chances of you ever feeling what the inside of a vagina feels like without having to pay for it.
YOU'RE LE POOR IF YOU DON'T WANT TO FUND MR.SHEKELBERG'S NEXT YACHT!!!
christ
jeets are working overtime since the showcase dropped
Reminder you said the same thing about the Shitch 1.
Cope.
It's still a cheap hobby relatively speaking unless you really do insist on buying every major release to avoid FOMO
The children yearn for the mines
buy?
You're talking about celebrities and memes, nobody cares about this collection of 100 rich, attention seeking obnoxious californians. I'm talking about real millionaires who live in the real world. You don't need to own Amazon and build rocket ships to be wealthy. You're trying to prove to me you aren't poor as fuck by acting like a ghetto bitch while pointing to the only rich people you've ever seen which is celebrities on TV.
