Go on TikTok, people are shitting all over the Switch 2

it's crazy how these trannies are unironically trying to gaslight people into believing switch 1 was well received

everyone laughed at it back then and look at the result

normalfags are in fact terminally online post-covid. They have infested every corner of the internet and nobody was left unscathed

Meanwhile in reality

give every retailer five Switch 2's

"WOW IT SOLD OUT!"

bump

But people are sucking it off all over the place.

They won't because Nintendo are greedy and evil. If anything they'll increase it because tariffs haven't been factored in for the US

Nice. I bet they totally mentioned how many MILLIONS of units they sold in the article right?

they knew the price would have a backlash.
its why it wasn't shown at all in the 1 hour direct everyone was watching, and instead shown later in the day.

I'm not shitting on Switch 2, nor do I care about what people think about it. I'm waiting for the emulator.

It's just too expensive.

Video game companies aren't your friends. Grow up. The tariffs haven't affected Sony or Microsoft AT ALL, and Nintendo is even selling the system for the correct price over in Japan. Nintendo made god only knows how much money from the Switch 1, it has this massive warchest of gold, yet people are acting like they cannot afford to drop the price and just accept having everything sell at a small loss. They can. They absolutely can. I can promise you, they can. If Iwata were alive now, he'd drop the price to $425, and drop MK World to $70, and change Gamechat to simply be a staple if you have the $20 subscription, and change that upgrade ports bullshit to default for all First Party Switch 1 games period while offering that extra stuff as paid for DLC instead, and clarify that only third party games will be download key only physicals.

They could very easily fix all this, but they believe they don't need to, that people will buy it all anyways and not care. I can guaran fucking tee you, when mom and little timmy look at the games and she notices a fucking mario game is listed at $80 while surrounded by $60 games, she's going to assume its a typo or store error. You might say "those are the casuals, they don't count" then welcome to the Wii U era again, its casuals that caused the Switch 1 to be successful, now they've been prices out of the market.

People don't buy the nintendo to play AAA games.

Snoys are desperately trying to will the Switch 2 into failing lmao

Go on TikTok

Jesus Christ friend...

Step 1: Drop MK World down to $70, and just consistently keep that price across the board.
Step 2: Drop the console to either $400, or $425.

This isn't hard, and its not rocket science either, its literally the simplest fucking thing. That's it. That's literally all they have to do. They do that, and it'd sell like crazy, AND give them good PR that they "listened to the fans". Its a literal win win. There are no downsides, hell with how the accessories are priced, they probably would make back any losses from those prices the instant anybody buys a $90 extra joycon, or their $50 camera (which probably cost like $20 to make)

...wow
still gonna buy the Switch 2.
but thanks for telling me what everyone else thinks (didn't ask)

Anon Babble is wrong every single time so I expect this to be the same thing.

people are shitting all over the Switch 2

no people are complaining about the price being too high.
they're doing this everywhere because everyone everywhere is going to buy a switch 2

They really said lets make Wii U 2, like everyone forgot about it and gamecube

greedy nintendo selling botw switch at full price after 8 years, fuck them

Not even Hyrule Warriors?

Hope they raise the price alot so it's easier to get.

Like I'd rather just pay $1000 than have discord, Twitter, hotstock etc alerts getting blasted at me all day trying to find a drop to beat scalpers.

That was probably the plan before trump taxes

Well too bad, price is going up instead.

Forget the trump taxes and still do it. They can afford the loss per unit. Have you see how much the Switch 1 made? YOU KNOW they can afford it.

I would've bought for hyrule warriors, sadly this is botw warriors.

"People in the US can't pre-order"

switch from amazon to amazon UK

spend a few dollars extra to pre-order with free shipping

get my "cheap" Switch 2

Go away shitlib

watchu mean "ANOTHER" as it's a bad thing
we've been playing MK8 for 11 years, you bet your ass we need another one

They likely have revenue goals they couldn't meet with the new taxes. Nintendo only cares about money

You're going to get tariff-ed on the shipping, plus handling fee and tip

Thanks for the TikTok report. Why don’t you head back there now?

It's Nintendover

The same people said the trailers for Minecraft looked terrible are eating crow now.

The Minecraft movie is exactly as bad as the trailers made it out to be. The only people who like it are kids who don't know better and zoomers treating the theater experience as some Rocky Horror Picture Show where they dance along with the characters.

At least this means scalpers will completely avoid the switch 2 and everyone that wants one can get one.

Well there are some good signs. The console actually has a startup jingle this time for example, pretty soulful if you ask me

I'm not clicking that.

What is it about nintendo that makes reddit, youtube and Anon Babble become full throated communists literally every single direct?

When you say "I cant afford that", I dont hear "The product is overvalued", I hear "I am financially irresponsible and you are supposed to be a charity"

once and floral

This isn't even ESL anymore. This is EFL.
How's the weather in New Delhi, OP?

I'm just going to wait for it to become available to buy in the United States lol

You're going to be waiting for awhile.

Nintendo's going to announce the US launch date being pushed back next week.

The hardware is priced very fairly.
The software is not.

Parents on the internet don't want to pay 500+ for a mario kar 8+ machine

Any viable evidence of this? They are the only demographic that matters.

Has Denuvo

Enough for me to remove it from my mind. Irdeto and the AAA shit they infect can pound sand.

i remember back in my day if i asked my dad for 5 dollars a month for osrs he'd tell me to fuck right off
i can't imagine parents spending 80 dollars on "i will never go on sale 2"

worked for the PS5 and its 500 dollar price tag.

It's not Nintendo's fault ok?!
They didn't purposefully not included the actual games on the game cartridges ok?! The tarrifs forced them to do the most anti consumer drm shit ever ok!!

there's probably a lot of people that are saying they can't afford this shit
it costs twice as much as a used ps5 and the games are way more expensive than used ps5 games

it worked for a while but ps5 prices have dropped drastically in the used market. i just loaned on like 5 ps5s and i'll be lucky if i can get 350 for them by the time i put them out

If I have money, I'll buy one when the new Mario comes out. I can play GTA on PS5 and I don't care about Cyberpunk

Just make some colorful Nintendo games and it'll be fine

scared of vocaroo links

HowNewRU

Yeah but theres nothing to play on that used ps5, so who gives a shit?
Nobody needs video games,and this idea that we "have" to be constantly updating our hardware and software is stupid to begin with. Recall that nintendo had an 8 year strategy for switch and for the last four years they kept saying "two more weeks" until switch 2 because these people are on the iphone upgrade addiction cycle. If this helps ween people off of this adhd high time preference society destroying bullshit even a little, its worth it. I didnt buy a switch until it was already 7 years old, and I played all the games the rest of you played and had exactly as much fun as you, and I did it at a discount.

Trump killed Nintendo

If you told me this 10 years ago I'd have laughed in your face

$90 for physical and $80 for digital!

Game key can only be used one console

All of the cartridges don't have the full game

All of the first party games are $80 (ignoring the DK game is $70)

Switch 2 editions are ports

So many people are hating it because they heard it from console war fags and third worlders who are spreading misinformation (and probably think they're true)
