The wallet voters have made their choice

I did my part :)

yea bought tons of nintendo stocks during the recession, gonna dump those after the launch when the prices peak after launch

What games are you getting, king?

I NEED MARIO KART AND.....I JUST NEED IT OKAY

You guys made fun of playstation for years when this console only has one actual launch title. There's literally no reason to buy this piece of shit at launch.

ps5 didn't have a launch title though.

Ay you got any of that Mario Kart?

Are people unironically addicted to Mario Kart and they need their fix?

bing bing wahoo obviously, the only thing these man children enjoy

Most people that buy ps5s buy them to play cod with their friends. You aren't buying a switch 2 to play cod, you're buying it to play nintendo games.

But if that isn't true, alright then, what games are you getting at launch?

Literally all you need.

The scalpers have placed their bets

Why does Peach need kneepads?

Did you really expect otherwise?

Consoles will always sell out at launch. There's also the fear prices might get jacked up.

Why WOULDN'T I buy it at launch? Nintendo has already shown a bunch of games I want.

Mario Kart World

Metroid Prime 4

Donkey Kong Bonanza

Kirby Air Riders

Hyrule Warriors 3 (5)

Duskbloods

Pokemon Legends ZA

And many more to come after. It's fucking Nintendo, you know there's gonna be a new Mario platformer, a new Zelda, new Splatoon, etc etc. When I bought my Switch at launch only Breath of the Wild was available. And I didn't regret it cause I bought a ton of games for it after that as they came out.

In comparison, for the PS5 there was

Demon's Souls

Astro's Playroom

Spiderman Miles Morales

And no guarantee anything good would come later. So who cares? All that power, and for what? There wasn't even a rerelease/remaster/update for Bloodborne and Sekiro. It's a joke of a console, and now there's rumors of the PS6 in development so it's an even bigger joke now.

Software sells hardware. Always has, always will.

I think people are too shortsighted for that.

I think what's actually happening is the scalpers are doing their normal thing and we just need to watch how they'll be doing.

I want one ;_;

t-t-the wii u sold out too!

What will be the cope when the inevitable "biggest console launch of all time" announcement arrives?

They'll keep saying "it's scalpers" even as Mario Kart World comfortably skyrockets past the sales milestones of every PS5 game

MK world is the only launch title.

ZA is on the switch and none of these games have actual launch dates, you're going to be playing mario kart would for MONTHS and MONTHS.

They're literally launching with a content drought

Donkey Kong.

Donkey Kong comes out in July you dong ass moron

Launch units tend to have the highest failure rates.

So? That's what I did with the Switch too, I played Zelda until ARMS came out, and that until Splatoon 2 came out. It's not like time stops after a console is released, and Donkey Kong comes out in July anyway. The whole point is there's no reason for me to NOT get a console now, because with Nintendo I know there will be more games I want coming soon.

Do you think that woman was able to sell all the wii us she bought ?

The "boycotters" were always snoys trying to force a meme instead of forcing their company to release exclusives.

my bad you're gonna pay 580 dollars+ tax to play mario kart for a month and then play donkey kong for 3+ months, that changes everything.

literally every consoles sells out at launch, even WiiU did.

They will be nintendoomed any day now

IMG_0751.png - 1272x1626, 765.79K

Some nice third party stuff too, unless you played them on PS4/5.

that's already more exclusives than ps5 and xbox after 5 years lmao

Guardians of Azuma on launch and like Pokemon will run better on Switch 2

a new Survival Kids game on launch

DK in July

Mario Party Jamboree Switch 2-exclusive DLC in July

Kirby DLC in August

Hyrule Warriors and Kirby Air Riders slated for this year

wheelchair basketball whenever

Hell Nintendo will probably have a post-launch summer direct just to announce stuff for the latter half of 2025 and early 2026.
Not to mention the Switch backcatalog still exists and first party games are actively being futureproofed.

Pre-launch sales don't mean much because of scalpers, but I think Switch 2 will be a successful console

wii u.jpg - 1600x1200, 419.07K

MFW this objectively shitty thread is filled with stupid butt hurt Nintendies!

Kek!

Imagine being a Nintendie in the year 2025!

scalpers botted them all and listed the on Ebay

people who thought $450 console and $80 games were too expensive are totally going to pay $750

Madoka.png - 478x380, 194.31K

Buys PS4 at launch

Buys PS4 Pro at launch

Buys PS5 at launch

Buys PS5 Pro at launch

All of these were more expensive than Switch 2 btw, what do you have to say for yourself

We’ll see about that
Limiting sales to one a customer will stop most scalpers

Yeah but launch hype. I get to talk shit online at anyone who didn't get the preorder AND people who don't like the company (I sure don't)
It's a privilege to get to talk shit about both sides then sell the ones I scalped so it costs me nothing.

No matter how you feel, I won. The game isn't fair so pretending it is will always be your downfall.

I'll win when they make the switch 2 oled too.

This is a brand new Mario Kart. The PS5 had a remake and a cross-gen iteration on Spider-Man. The fact you're downplaying fucking Mario Kart is insane. Get better bait.

That's not to mention the real point in Nintendo's favor as well: they're going to have actual exclusives continually leaving. Even in a worst case Nintendo somehow only put out two or three notable exclusives a year, that would still beat Sony's PS5 output. I was more than happy to buy a PS4 when I had an actual real backlog to enjoy. We're even further into the PS5's life cycle than that point for me, and I have barely any reason to dish out money for it.

Go idle for hats and calm down, freak.

you ever come off a dirt bike?

I preordered the switch the day it got announced, but I'm probably never going to buy a game for 90€, even if I have to play inferior versions for the old switch.

Nintendo realized that they really don't need to sell their consoles at a loss/no profit anymore. Even if the sales drop, they would still recoup that from the larger profit margins. A lot of industries right now are ditching budget products to instead focus on selling mid-range products to higher paying and more profitable costumers, and it seems that videogames are the next one in line.
Gaming might very well become a luxury hobby.

Just order from Amazon France. DK costs like 59€.

Yeah I think that's a stupid move, there's no reason to not just wait a year and get one second hand. Even in your scenario there isn't really a reason to not just wait for splatoon 2 to come out and then you buy your switch to play Arms, Splatoon 2 and BotW as much as you want where you don't have to stretch anything out while you wait for more games.

Games come out on steam all the time, you have games you aren't playing right now, you even have a massive library of old games you can just emulate whenever.

Donkey Kong and Mario Kart aren't going anywhere and, you know, consider the possibility that Mario Kart is not very good or you just don't like the direction compared to mario kart 8. What happens then?

I'd understand it more if there were more launch/window titles because you're basically betting it all on mario kart.

I think buying a ps5 at launch is stupid but it's about as stupid as buying a switch 2 because why not just wait? Are you really a huge mario kart fan? Do you really think you're gonna get 30+ days of gameplay out of it?
Maybe I don't get it, I'm not a big mario kart head after all but to me people see ps5s as PCs where they get the best experience they know about for them out of their games.

A ps5 doesn't need exclusive it just needs games people like.

Nintendo has been living and dying by their exclusives, they've literally based entire consoles around what those consoles can uniquely do with their games with the (touchscreens and motion control). It's a much worse situation for a Nintendo product to not do anything new and not have a strong launch lineup.

Yeah I think that's a stupid move, there's no reason to not just wait a year and get one second hand

How's this for a reason: I want to play Mario Kart World, and I don't want to arbitrarily wait a year to do so. I will play what I want, when I want. And that includes old games I haven't played yet either. "Backlogs" are retarded.

A ps5 doesn't need exclusive it just needs games people like.

People like Mario games.

Buying consoles at launch

omegalul

You're not arbitrarily waiting unless you need mario kart right now.

I'm saying you can just do what you're doing now for however long you'd wanna do that (for me it'd be a year but for you it can be until Metroid 4 or duskbloods comes out or whatever) and then you can buy your games, maybe get a good deal second hand and you get a full strong launch lineup experience where it's new for you and you get to enjoy a lot of games one after another at your own pace and whenever you're done with them there'll be more games waiting for you where you don't have to bet everything on absolutely fucking loving mario kart world.

I'm saying you can just do what you're doing now for however long you'd wanna do that

For me, that will be until the games I want are released. Then I play them. I don't "wait a year" for some stupid shit reason just to build a backlog. That's retarded.

Really funny how the internet suddenly went from

DROP THE PRICES

to

NOOOOOOO I COULDN'T GET A PREORDER IM KILLING MYSELF

"Drop the price" has always been for the GAMES, retard. Not the console. People don't like $80 games. And if nobody said anything how could Nintendo react at all?

Only retards think YouTube comments and shitty tweets are going to change anything, and if they hate the game prices what are they buying the console for?

1. If you know what a backlog is and think you're building it chances are you already have a backlog.

2. That's fine but you're no different from someone that bought a ps5 at launch with that mindset, which was my whole point.

Except it's even worse because at least the ps5 player is doing it to get the best version of rainbow six seige and call of duty (for them)

Consider this: Youtube comments and shitty tweets demanded Persona 5 for the Switch. Everyone laughed at them.
But now Persona 5 is on Switch. So why exactly did that happen? How did Atlus get feedback that there was a market and a demand for that game on that platform, if not for Youtube comments and videos and shitty tweets?

I'm not getting one until woomy's game comes out.

woomybuckets.jpg - 2480x3338, 549.91K

I made mine. Picking it up at midnight.

Did you retards actually think the boycott was going to work? They could've charged $1000 for it and Tendies would still eat it up like a child by himself at a playground.

Here is 70€, but I still don't like neither mario kart or donkey kong, the only one I care about is the pokemon za game.

The 152 million consoles sold didn't need Youtube comments or tweets to get its message across.

I hope you were part of the most important console launch of our lifetime

I didn't even bother. I'll wait to see if they're more available by the end of the year, and if not, whatever. I'll be busy with Oblivion, Doom, and GTAVI for the rest of the year, and there's nothing on Switch 2 that I'm going to lose sleep over not catching at launch. I'd rather upgrade my GPU anyway.

If you know what a backlog is and think you're building it chances are you already have a backlog.

Too bad for you, I don't. Like I said, I play what I want, when I want. Things that don't interest me I don't buy. I don't mark games as "oh that looks interesting, I'll play it later". I just don't care about those sort of things.

That's fine but you're no different from someone that bought a ps5 at launch with that mindset, which was my whole point.

Again, you are retarded. With Sony and the PS5 there was no guarantee of subsequent good games. Even now Sony has trouble with advertising good games to sell the system. Astro Bot was the first game in a long while Sony really pitched hard, they usually advertise Horizon or let Druckmann advertise the yet another Last of Us remake.

With Nintendo, there IS a guarantee of good games. I can reasonably expect fun titles that appeal to me to come out in the future for the system. It's not even a question at this point, it's both part of their advertising and relationship with their consumers. If they ever fail to make lots of good games for a system this relationship would break down and you'd have a point. But that hasn't happened yet.

"Drop the price" comes with the implication that people still want to play their games.
You can't scare Nintendo with a "boycott" and feigned outrage while still admitting there's demand for their product. All Nintendo heard was "We'll buy it anyway".

And judging by the massive preorders, Nintendo read things correctly

No, they most certainly did. Because Persona 5 was released back in 2016, Royal was released in 2020 (3 years after the Switch launched), and Royal for Switch launched in 2022, two years later. It most certainly doesn't take FIVE YEARS to port your game to other systems. A game released six years before, at that.

I was part of the PS2 launch, yes.

I missed you fucking faggots like you wouldn't believe and I can't believe the board that posted about Maplestory so often missed the announcement of classic maplestory

1

I think you're lying because I actually don't have a backlog and I never talk about that shit or even care about it at all. to me the 'backlog' meme isn't even worth considering and you bring it up out of nowhere? Yeah, you 100% have one.

2

There is a guarantee of subsequent good multiplats, is what I'm talking about.

You're comparing astro bot to mario and I'm saying sony is doing something different where Nintendo's strategy of having a strong multiplat lineup and one exclusive is a bad move when people buy into a switch 2 in the first place for the exclusives.

what is the chance that this console can be jailbroken ???

it's HOO HOO HAH since its Donkey Kong now

motherfucker I've been playing Mario Kart 8 for 13 years you god damn bet I want the next one asap

The PS5 's Rachet & Clank wasn't that good but it's better than MKW as a launch title

penor

grim

Ratchet & Clank rift apart

launch title

when it came out 7 months after the PS5 launch

Do you really think you're gonna get 30+ days of gameplay out of it?

Are you out of your mind? People dump thousands of hours on Mario Kart.

no Mario launch title for Switch 2

It’s over

If you're going to try and bait people you have to come up with something that's at least somewhat believable.

You guys getting the gamecube controller?

Switch 2 all in one case costs $84

Why the fuck is it so expensive compared to the original Switch’s big case (like twice as much)?
Is it better quality and can it store more stuff?

IMG_7128.jpg - 736x700, 39.89K

why? the switch's gamecube adapter works on the switch 2

there's two cases, the smaller one is still 40 bucks. I'm getting a 3rd party one once its around 30

why is Jewtendo’s new more expensive new thing more expensive????

Retard

I think you're lying because I actually don't have a backlog and I never talk about that shit or even care about it at all.

You're the one that brought up the concept, even if you didn't use the word. Don't be disingenuous.

Yeah, you 100% have one.

Nope. The only game I'm currently playing is Helldivers 2 to pass the time because nothing interests me at the moment. Like I said, I play what I want, and right now what I want is a little over a month away.

There is a guarantee of subsequent good multiplats, is what I'm talking about.

Who gives a fuck about multiplats? Multiplats do not sell systems, exclusive games DO. They're the reason to buy a console instead of just buying it on PC.

where Nintendo's strategy of having a strong multiplat lineup and one exclusive is a bad move when people buy into a switch 2 in the first place for the exclusives.

It worked for the Switch. And will work here too. Like I said, with Nintendo there's a guarantee of good exclusive game that will come out for it. There isn't that guarantee for Sony, you will be stuck with multiplats.

snoy sees tendie thread

seethes on command

Ol’ reliable

I don't care about Mario Kart but I'm still buying a Switch 2 because the fan in my launch switch is dying.

Yeah, honestly, the NSO Gamecube controller is pretty much what I wanted the 8bitdo GC mod-kit thingy to be. USB-C, full original Gamecube feel, has a second left shoulder button (awkward or not). Once it isn't utter hell to get one I'll snag one along with a Pro Controller since reviewers and early shills keep saying the Switch 2 Pro is comfy. And I actually kinda admire the hustle of refusing to put analog triggers onto joycons/Pro controllers.

why do brown "people" struggle with understanding that pre-orders are not final sales?

why does Nintendo's continued success make you so mad?

MK world is the only launch title.

MK World is the only immediate title, and Donkey Kong comes a month later.

ZA is on the switch

yes, and it's going to run like literal dogshit on the switch 1 just like scarlet and violet

none of these games have actual launch dates

seethe more, metroid, kirby air riders, and silksong are coming out in 2025

I was talking about a new console experience. If the switch 2 launched with all the games they've shown so far would you say

FUCK YOU NINTENDO, YOU GAVE ME A BACKLOG YOU TWISTED FREAKS

No, you'd just say, oh that's cool, that'll be a fun new experience with my new console. I'm talking about capturing that by just doing what you do normally instead of burning yourself out on hype.

It's a different market and userbase. People get PS5s and play multiplats, I wouldn't be surprised if half the people on their PS5s right now are playing cod or fortnite, it's just what they do.

I think it's stupid too, I think just get a PC too but who the fuck are you to say it's the wrong way to play their games when you want to spend 500+tax on fucking mario kart?

The Nvidia shield created this upscaled portable trend and the switch capitalized on it. It's an odditiy, it's fun. The switch 2 isn't an odditity. It's normal. Why not just stick to your regular switch or get a steam deck?

It's a much worse situation for a Nintendo product to not do anything new and not have a strong launch lineup.

people will literally continue to play mario kart as new exclusives drop.
one month of mario kart + 60 fps zelda for those who don't emulate (or those who never played it the first time around) is quite a lot of new and old together. add to that donkey kong one month later and seemingly a new switch 2 title every month or every other month, and yes the year 1 lineup is going to be fairly strong.

fucking kirby air ride 2, It's been close to 20 years, it's about goddamn time. They got me

Yeah I think that's a stupid move, there's no reason to not just wait a year and get one second hand.

What do you mean "there's no reason?" I want to play it now, I have the financial means where buying the console bundle barely registers in my fun budget, and I like the launch title it's coming with. Not only that, but I have a backlog of Switch 1 RPGs like Fire Emblem Engage and Xenoblade 3 that I'd like to play on more powerful *portable* hardware. I like emulation but I didn't buy a fucking switch to do what my PC does for me.

No, you'd just say, oh that's cool, that'll be a fun new experience with my new console. I'm talking about capturing that by just doing what you do normally instead of burning yourself out on hype.

That's fine then, but I want to emphasize that I'm not gonna burn myself out and sell my Switch 2 on a whim or something. I was fine with Breath of the Wild alone back in 2017, and I'll be fine with Mario Kart here as well. I don't expect my experience to be any different.

It's a different market and userbase. People get PS5s and play multiplats, I wouldn't be surprised if half the people on their PS5s right now are playing cod or fortnite, it's just what they do.

Yes, I will agree to this. People buy PS5s and Xboxes to have a plug-and-play games system hooked up to their TV, Sony just tries to market to power users as well through their few exclusives. Which don't appeal to me because they're so few in number. It's more than I can say for an Xbox, at least.

Why not just stick to your regular switch or get a steam deck?

Simple, because there's games I want to play that only come out for it. I'm not even sure why we're arguing at this point since we seem to both agree with each other, but sure.

artificial supply btw
nintendr*nes still coping and seething

but you're no different from someone that bought a ps5 at launch with that mindset

except the part where nintendo has announced or released a new game I like to play every 2-3 months for the past 8 years.

the ps5 player is doing it to get the best version of rainbow six seige and call of duty (for them)

please explain to me where i else i am able to get the best version of mario kart world anywhere else

manchildren game vs manchildren game

???

Astro's Playroom is kino wdym

You guys made fun of playstation for years when this console only has one actual launch title

and now the switch 2 has one more game than the ps5 all these years later

feels like it was genuinely just tranny twittards who thought the switch 2 would flop or get boycotted or whatever. this is the successor to one of the most popular consoles ever, which both normies and gamers like a lot, with a sequel to the most popular racing game ever and a new 3d platformer that aims to revitalize a previous franchise like botw and mario odyssey before it (i wish they went back to traditional zelda though...). like genuinely how on fucking earth would this ever not sell gangbusters

There is a guarantee of subsequent good multiplats

lol, lmao
i'm nta but I have a PC -- why the *fuck* would I care about multiplats on another home console?
i bought a switch and now a switch 2 to play the nintendo exclusive games i like in a handheld format. i got games on a schedule of 1 every couple of months. what the fuck are you trying to argue here?
it's literally a fact that the switch has gotten games every couple of months. unlike the ps5, only a handful of those titles are now on PC (mostly square RPGs), so for the most part, the switch gave me exactly what I asked, which is to be a portable pokemon, xenoblade, fire emblem, astral chain, bing bing wahoo, animal crossing, and zelda machine with some indie multiplats like hades.

Why not just stick to your regular switch or get a steam deck?

I have a steam deck and regular switch. neither can run mario kart world or tears of the kingdom at 60 fps. next question

On top of it they elected to just eat the tariffs and go forward with the original pricing so it's no less attainable than it was previously threatened to be

The major difference being BotW and Mario Kart World, comparitively MKW looks way more barebones with a cosmetic open world whereas BotW embraced what an open world was actually supposed to be in terms of creativity and immersion.

Also the tracks did look boring compared to MK8
Mario Kart 8?
Nintendo has more recently released just okay games that aren't worth 50 dollars let alone 60, there's no reason to get mario kart at launch when you could just wait for reviews and then maybe buy it even after DK comes out.
I just said I agree, I know it's stupid but buying mario kart at launch for 500 dollars and not waiting, is worse because stupid people bought their PS5 for the experience they know they're gonna get. You don't even know if you're going to like MKW as much as you liked MK8 so you're betting your launch purchase on that instead of just waiting.

not to mention that it's the only handheld that can play totk at 60 fps consistently, and it's very cheap in its weight class while punching quite a bit above the steam deck.

the hardware is genuinely a good deal. the software pricing is annoying but i'm tired of hearing this whole "nintendo never does sales" garbage when dekudeals lists when these games regularly go on like 30%-40% off.

I'm camping out at GameStop right now. I pre-ordered it. I have nothing but a solar panel and battery to keep my phone charged, a small tent, a sleeping bag, my puppers in her Nintendo shirt and me on my Zelda shirt, food for me and my doggo, and a permit from the city. Imma get my switch 2! Bought and paid for! Fuck the haters!

Damn it feels good that Anon Babble is back! Praise the mods! Glory to the janitors! And thank you feds. It sucked without this shit site. Feels good to be home.

Linux

Hahahahahaha hard pass. No thank you.

permit from the city

lmao what

Mario Kart 8?

mario kart 8 doesn't have any of the mechanics related to railing and wall jumps

Nintendo has more recently released just okay games that aren't worth 50 dollars let alone 60

How recent we talking? I can name 2 games every year for the last 3-5 years I thought were completely worth their price.

there's no reason to get mario kart at launch when you could just wait for reviews and then maybe buy it even after DK comes out.

i wanted the console and had a chance to buy this game on nearly a 50% discount. I already have a decade of mario kart 8 to show me that I know Nintendo knows how to design a kart racer. I like the rail mechanics of the new entry. there is no reason to i need to wait.

is worse because stupid people bought their PS5 for the experience they know they're gonna get.

except I know we have

metroid prime 4

pokemon ZA

donkey kong

kirby air riders

professor layton

duskbloods

rhythm heaven

and before you say some are on the switch 1, they're not at the same fidelity or framerate targets. i have 8 years of evidence that these games I want to play will come out in a timely manner on the console, and it seems that there are enough games on this thing that will fill the gaps between them. I fail to see how this is worse than buying a ps5 at launch if I cared about exclusives.

Good job killing physical gaming for good, you retarded consoomers. Enjoy paying $80 for your empty game cards.

I have zero intention of buying game key carts or even entertaining the idea. If I want something it will be physical or digital, not an NFT.

California's new laws to combat homelessness. ICE also checks in to make sure you're an American citizen.

I'm just here to be in line to buy my switch 2.

Why so early it's a month away?

Bro it sold out in seconds, I wanna be first in line. I have the receipt to prove I bought it.

People don't realize this but there's like 50 people here in line already.

take a pic or fuck off with your bullshit. people lining up a month away for a console release my ass

I pulled a consoomer.

What are you talking about? I'm paying $80 for Mario kart world. I'm not buying the bundle.

Walmartsisters......

One of us one of us oogle aggle one of us. Welcome to the club. It's nice here. People tend to get along and not argue over stupid shit. It's ok to get excited and smile over your chosen thing of the month. Come I'll buy you a beer.

All of this retard shit about muh worse than ps5 launch buyers falls apart with the simple realizations that
1) many who have the money to preorder have a pc or another device to play the heavy games
2) nintendo actually releases games more than once a decade lmfao

paying $80 for digital slop

You nintënyearolds are the most retarded consumers lmao

Don't bully a king boo player if you see him in mario kart world

Better digital slop than an empty game cart with a link to a download. Fuck that noise.

Yeah but it's not woke so I'll buy it. Cry harder.

Friendly reminder the Wii U sold out at launch too and we all remember how that turned out :)

Most physical copies of switch games use game cards. Very few are on the cartridge. Nintendo killed physical and you fags are eating it up. Buying a Switch 2=supporting the death of physical media. Simple as.

IMG_0131.jpg - 1138x1075, 725.23K

the reason snoys are salty about $80 exclusives is because the only thing they get to spend on their console for $80 is a netflix subscription

Nintendo isn't woke but their trannylators are unfortunately.

willing to pay $80 for slop

Pathetic

LE WOKE!!!!

nincel lol

its so weird that DXM is a physical cart with the game in the west but a key cart in japan

le heckan snoy boogeyman

Everyone thinks you're retarded for wanting to spend $80 on videogames, especially sloptendo trash.

they are but they aren't

Which is it, Mangalawyer

n64 was worse

You're still getting a game cart as empty as your skull.

How do you "run out" of something that isn't even out yet? This would have meant a piss if they weren't one of those anti consumerist companies who use "scalpers" as a coping mechanism excuse for being impotent at actually producing enough units.

no.png - 753x541, 500.47K

Baiting this bad.

It’s good to be back.

Also, I was aiming for the bundle BECAUSE I didn’t wanna spend $80 on Mario Kart. Plus with DK Bananza being only a month away afterwards, I figured why not and decided to bite the bullet.

IMG_7984.jpg - 420x236, 49.32K

Mario Kart World isn't a game key cart.

If you can read Japanese they aren't but if you can't they are.

Actually I take that back, N64 was better because the fuckers actually gave you the one launch title game they made with console purchase. A physical one and not a glorified FOB key that is. Even Wii gave you wii sports.

I gave up on that fight a long time ago. It’s a waste of breath trying to convince large groups of people to do anything (that isn’t retarded). If I like the state of the Switch 2 in a few years, I might pick one up. I hope everyone enjoys theirs in the meantime.

If that looked worth 500 dollars to you than go ahead

Strikers, Peach showtime, Tennis, Mario RPG (great game but don't get it twisted, it's an SNES game), both paper marios, Luigi's mansion 2 HD, scarlet and violet, sword and shield, DK returns HD. Maybe Mario Wonder.

There's more I can't think of but a chunk of these aren't bad just aren't worth the asking price.

Nintendo have fucked up or just made forgettable entries in genres they have a lot of experience in before.

Pokemon ZA is a switch 1 game but those games look great, why not just wait for them to come out when you know that money spent on the switch 2 is gonna be worth THAT experience with the experience of MKW being a maybe?

I-I’m not kneeling at the slop trough, y-you’re just poor!

tendies, tendies never change.

yes I'll buy the switch lite

yes I'll buy the oled

wtf why would I buy a more powerful system with exclusive games?

Never understood this. If you buy pro consoles and then think you are above getting an actual successor I consider you a nigger.

Cool story, they can elaborate how by wasting more money running fact checking damage control nintendo directs for all I care. Imagine shilling express cards for a system that can't even utilize the bandwidth of a regular sd card.

There's more I can't think of but a chunk of these aren't bad just aren't worth the asking price.

Add just about every port (including 3D Allstars) that isn’t Metroid Prime remastered. The Mario Party entries still kind of suck. Anything Pokemon related was embarrassing (not just the big, new generation games). Very few 1st/2nd party games were worth buying for full retail in my opinion.

I see we have reached the "i-it's just scalpers buying it" stage of cope.

a chunk of these aren't bad just aren't worth the asking price.

mario RPG regular went on $30 sales for physical copies on various sites like amazon and woot. same goes for the rest.
either way, I think they're fine at full price, but if you really want me to say which games were especially good at 60 that reach back as far as you've reached (2019), I'd have to say

FE3H

Astral Chain

Luigi's Mansion 3

ACNH

Xenoblade 1 remake

All of the Famicom Detective Club games

Metroid Dread

Warioware (both)

Splatoon 3

Triangle Strategy (no longer exclusive)

Xenoblade 3

Fire Emblem Engage

Metroid Prime Remastered

Pikmin 4

Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

Super Mario Wonder

Another Code Recollection

Mario and Luigi Brothership

This is a long list of exclusive games I've really enjoyed over the last 6 years. I legitimately don't see your value argument here when I feel they all respected my time and money.

To play cod with their friends

So you're basically saying ps5ers are glorified poorfags who cant into PC gaming.
Got it.
Also PS5 has no games.

you bought it anyway

switch 2 and wii u rhyme

BROS

The nintendo cycle......it's......real. . . ?

How do you "run out" of something that isn't even out yet? This would have meant a piss if they weren't one of those anti consumerist companies who use "scalpers" as a coping mechanism excuse for being impotent at actually producing enough units.

The very fact "scalpers" are even a forethought for your companies business model shows how impotent you are. Just make more and sell more. It's so fucking foreign of a concept for some reason, it's actually concerning. Imagine:

Shut up and take my money!

They adamantly try their hardest not to, they make up every lame ass excuse in the book not to do this.

What drugs are they selling? Human trafficking? Just sell me it, what's the fucking problem, shitter company?

we're now in the poor selling console with kino library phase

Bros we're so back

Luigi's Mansion 3

Metroid Dread

I’ll give you these and Pikmin 4 as a bonus (haven’t played it yet). Metroid Prime almost gets a pass for the price point. Can’t stand JRPGs or adjacent genres for the most part. They drag on for too long.

it's Gamecube era again

gonna get kino like eternal darkness and gotcha force

YES!!!

those sales on amazon reflect market realities, inventory strategies and demand working against what Nintendo thinks their games are worth.

If they were priced affordably to begin with people would be onboard which is the point.

Wonder how are you guys gonna cope when it outsells the Wii U within a few months.

Are patterns really all you can think of?

Can't tell if you're implying gotcha force is kino or eternal darkness is a bad game. Either way kys.

S-STOP NOTICING PATTERNS!!!!

Break some of the conditioning, please Nintendo

wow anon, it's almost as if...you're not in the target audience for these games! surely it doesn't mean these games are devoid of value for the people who like these genres!

Underrated.

The Wii U sold out pre-orders before launch like the Switch 2, therefore it will fail.

That’s not the only console to sell out pre-orders, you know? The Wii U failed for many reasons, but a big one was because many people thought it was just another accessory for the console like the U Draw Tablet. Nintendo is doing a lot more to convey that this IS a new console with new games instead of leaving people in the dark thinking it’s some weird accessory to the Switch.

trump response

LMAO based

You can't be this stupid indian marketer lol. Let me break down the comparisons:
•both are sequel consoles
•both are released by a cocky nintendo high off successful prior consoles
•both feature really bad ideas
•both are far too expensive for what you get
•both have shit launch titles
•both have really bad marketing
Shitch 2 is a dud

console costs less than the PS5 and most recent XBox

game prices have gone up, what, 10-20 bucks

people act like this is the most evil satanic thing to ever happen in the history of the universe and launch entire campaigns against nintendo demanding they give everything away for free

This doesn't feel organic at all.

both have really bad marketing

???

Hey, missed you, still being a one-note dog and pony show I see.

Already starting

Doug Bowser literally told people if you don't like the overpriced shitch 2 to go buy a shitch 1. That's exactly like what happened during the xbox one press cycle and is really bad lmao.
Meds.

and did the xbox one sell out on preorders?

keeps shrieking and sharting about nintendo and spamming his favorite word "shitch" nonstop

lashes out when anyone calls him out on it

where's the recession?
where's the economic crisis?
again mainstream media and you guys tricked me!

How does Nintendo get away with scamming it's userbase almost as hard as Apple with none of the pushback?

The xbone was unusable without an internet connection. That's what that fiasco was about, not it being too expensive at launch

Seriously, everything Nintendo does and says is a complete cam, Sony and Microsoft have never ever done that, they love and care about their users.

thanks tendies!

Israel must really have a hate boner for Nintendo, with how much anti-Nintendo shit they spam here constantly.

They're going to claim people bought it because they were panicking over tariffs

There's no Nintendo store in Indonesia so console price will be close to $1000 and game price $100, while at the sametime, we the middle class are earning 5-10 times less salary than the americans

Im priced out of my hobby. fun :)

You Splatoonfags are the fakest Nintendo fans out of all the IPs.

xbox one original price was $500 btw

The switch 2 is a product for first world countries
all people complaining are third worlders thinking they matter

A bunch of scalpers are trying to make a profit, you'll see real success when Nintendo games become popular on twitch

I'll just wait for the Switch 2 emulator, you retards can spend money on this overpriced shit so I can play it for free later on

You're gonna be waiting five years minimum for a Switch 2 emulator for a lot of reasons.

NOOO STOP PLAYING GAMES

Not everyone is obsessed with consoles wars like you.

All of them? It's hard to compete with Fzero and Mother.

I pre-ordered but I might have to cancel to pay the bills. Keep your eyes peeled.

All new game consoles were overpriced at launch, it's a normal thing little guy
People complained about the original switch's price too

Ok so now that Nintendo is dead. What franchise can feel my void from pokemon. And don't say garbage like palworld

Yeah, fuck this.

Even my most normie Nintenfag friends arent buying it at launch.

Actually, I'm buying one for the Bravely Default remaster.

B-But it'll be on pee sea in 12 m-months...!

Okay, well then enjoy waiting 12 months to enjoy my sloppy seconds.

You aren't buying a switch 2 to play cod, you're buying it to play nintendo games.

Good thing it has a Nintendo game on launch and another Nintendo game month after.
Also defending PS5's lack of exclusives by saying people play multiplats only on it is the most hilarious cope. But sure, Playstation fans don't care about games other than live service slop.

LOL LMAO even. Seethe. You wasted $500

Reminder that its literally ok when everyone but nintendo does it

1000008831.png - 735x1046, 113.43K

DAS RITE
Anything not looted is wasted money

Games come out on steam all the time, you have games you aren't playing right now, you even have a massive library of old games you can just emulate whenever

...

A ps5 doesn't need exclusive it just needs games people like

You are a strange person.

Me? I haven't bought a Nintendo Product since the Nintendo Wii, I enjoy emulating their games though, can't wait for the new animal crossing

Same, don't give a fuck about the companies but I love free games.

Nintendo announces $80 price for Mario Kart.

Outrage, tribal screaming and shit flinging

Sony announced global price hikes on their hardware and PS Plus subscriptions for the third time this gen alone.

Crickets

Yeah it checks out, the Sony bias is confirmed.

anti-woke grifters target the switch 2

it becomes the biggest console launch of all time

oh no no no no

Yongyea has made 12 Switch 2 videos in less than a month

Yet not a single video about the PS5 price increases and PS+ prices being raised AGAIN.

Guess his stint as Kiryu isn't paying him that well if he is willing to be a dumb ass online for clout?

I tried to stay away from woke vs anti-woke stuff but seeing anti-woke people yell DEI and woke at the basketball wheelchair game just made me depressed.
I think it looked cool. Who wants to live a life where they get angry at stuff as meaningless as that?

boco

Damn… I didn’t miss you

It's just the scalpers for now.

I booted up my 3DS for BS demo and reviewed my old BS save file... fucking hell man I did not realize the audio quality was so shit
As in they used a 90s mic or something
I wonder if they truly removed the BS part -The hourglass and the ending- in the HD Remaster .. I hope not

Who wants to live a life where they get angry at stuff as meaningless as that?

Did you forget what site you're on?

NnnNnNnnnnnNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOoOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, BOYCOT SISTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah but I thought it was partly just an act and shitpostint. Okay to be frustrated and vent a bit, this is a good place for it.
But like making your whole personality and life about it? Especially over something you aren't even going to do anything about. Then worship some e-celeb grifters and stuff.

It's just genuinely strange the more I think about it.

What was Switch 1's launch and first year like? I honestly don't remember how hard it was to get one. I didn't get one until a little after a year since launch. People cried about the Switch 2's pre-orders but it wasn't even that bad.

Only Europe won't bend the knee. Mutts are cattle confirmed

1740757762529.png - 1080x1621, 853.66K

It looks fresh and fun to me too but holy shit why is the art style so soulless

europe never gave much of a shit about nintendo anyways.
do you also think the xbox brand selling like shit in japan means anything?

Anon Babble exists because moot wanted to create the asshole of the internet where Anonymous does not forget or forgive and everyone can act like mindless savage animals. There's also Israel spamming all kinds of inflammatory and shit-stirring garbage.

What bagholder scalps a product that never changes value and whose later iterations include more features for the same price? It's a fucking meme, it's Nintendo thinking they're the equivalent of rock concerts. Really it's them wishing there were actually scalpers incentivizing others to buy ASAP because unfortunately the exact opposite is the case and they purposefully undersell just to say they "sold out". Yeah you "sold out" because you're so miserly and full of self doubt in your product that you didn't make enough out of fear it would turn into another Wii U.
The very idea, yeah Nintendo fans are in the parking lots of best buy buying resale mario games from the back of vans or some ridiculous shit. Yeah they're buying alarmos off the black market and silk road too.

bobostonks.png - 1000x1000, 60.66K

Well Japan never ever caring about Xbox is also true

Nope, that means nothing, Europe's actions however mean everything.

I'm not buying it
The switch 2
I know I KNOW buuuuuut I still not buying it that's all
Hahahahhahahahahahahaha

It sold out first night like everything, but I got one second or third week, I forget exactly. It wasn't like Wii that took two YEARS to stop selling out every shipment.

The PS5 got a price increase in europe and yuropoors being the little paypiggies mutts they are are gonna happily buy it because they love playstation. oink oink.

videos about the switch 2 gets way more views than the PS5, it's smart to focus on the shitting on the switch 2

So you guys were not able to secure a preorder, good to know

Its okay chuds, im sure there will be more a year from now

Honestly the only people buying a ps5 / xbox are people who cannot afford to build a PC, most of the shit released on those come out on PC.

Meanwhile nintendo protected their IP and are reaping the rewards.

Are you retarded? You ordering yourself as somebody knowledgeable in the market but you're completely ignorant to the trends. Gamers have high time preference so consoles are a lucrative item to scalp in the first few months. And there are no back alley shady resellers necessary, Mario games are blatantly high value

everyone pay attention to me not buying your thing!

Nintendo is only gonna see that they're sold out. You don't matter

So you guys were not able to secure a preorder

I mean by virtue of not wanting to yeah.

im sure there will be more a year from now

Which is exactly why "scalping" doesn't exist and isn't a legitimate reason for Nintendo to use when excusing themselves for charging their userbase more money for their products. Yeah you pretty much nailed it.

mario kart, new DK game, bravely default remaster? there are 3 games its more than the ps5 had.

Still not buying it

1743990988448.png - 1020x821, 325.42K

Scalping doesn't exist

Bros living in a parallel reality, thats like saying there was never a famine because we don't have one now.

You are impressively stupid.

The wallet voters have made their choice.

lol, you mean SCALPERS.

k

It was always meant to be

I already bought it
the switch 2
i am going to enjoy karting with the boys on june 5th, i know buuuut..... im just enjoying myself
thats alll
hahahahaha

mariojak.jpg - 498x621, 29.49K

"Vote with your wallet!"

"NOOOOOOO NOT LIKE THAT D:<"

I'm not defending anything. For the most part I'm saying that buying a console for A single game is stupid and buying a console for multiplats is less stupid, it's still stupid though.
One is personal the other is how the console itself operates without exclusives.

The Switch 2 doesn't just not have a strong launch lineup, given the way nintendo fans ignore 3rd party games it effectively has no lineup.

If you personally like the multiplats it has to offer and you want to play them on switch 2 over anything else then go ahead friend, it's all yours.

What do you hope to gain by grandstanding on an anonymous Icelandic pictogram enthusiast chatroom?

We know because you can't. Scalperchads and NintenGods bought them all. We'll be having fun playing mk and/or making a healthy profit on June 5 while you post smug pepes on a Chinese cartoon forum

but you're completely ignorant to the trends

sorry, it's that I don't listen to retards like you who reinforce these meme trends.

Gamers have high time preference

I am getting "ludonarrative dissonance" vibes from this blatant shit post.

so consoles are a lucrative item to scalp in the first few months.

No, it's not a rock concert still. Or a museum, sorry. Oh okay maybe you got me for the online games but you know Nintendo can always keep those servers running or make them host based.

And there are no back alley shady resellers necessary, Mario games are blatantly high value

Because they charge 80 dollars for them and sue random nobodies. They are reified high value only because the company says they are. Gamers? Gamers forgot about Super mario wonder already, and no not because of "high time preference".

Scalping doesn't exist

It doesn't. It's a shit excuse for shit companies. It's them saying "no" when you tell them to "take my money". For their "museum" the issue is forced to exist by virtue of how reservations are dealt with legally in Japan.

thats like saying there was never a famine

By virtue of seeds and the ground still existing there never should have been. Again it's a situation reified by the people who whinge about it happening in the first place.

*kills all the birds*.

wahh muh famine!

Fucking cattle. Even the fucking potato famine was a meme.

given the way nintendo fans ignore 3rd party games

what

I voted twice

Untitled.png - 584x751, 64.36K

By virtue of seeds and the ground still existing there never should have been.

This, famines utterly destroy absolutely everything, the fact soil and plants still exist means famines are a myth.

Your tone changed anon what happened to that smug aura? This post is defensive and hostile, you're scrambling. Maybe nervous about getting called out on your bullshit?

I'd bet good money the "drop the price" gang was never even gonna buy the console anyways.

PS5 literally had no launch title, Anon.

Anyways yes, I am getting a Switch2 for Mario Kart because I had hundreds of hours in MK8 and want to get in on the hype train this time around.

The people who are the loudest and angriest about something never care about what they're pretending to be upset about, they just want attention.

Call it a feeling

Nobody talks about what actually causes them, what leads up to them. Famine? Yeah no shit, that means it's working. Almost every single instance is premeditated, specifically for population control in densely populated areas. Victory garden farmer Joe doesn't bleach the land, he doesn't divert the water, he's not a faggot nobleman who just up and stops doling the gold bags to the larger peasant farms.

I double down on the big stick while you double down on the head bumps and retard, it's part and parcel really.

Maybe nervous

This kongs gone wrong maaan, what will I ever do without me donkey kong bonanza preorder? I need muh piranha plant cam maaan.

swerve.jpg - 778x658, 178.8K

Same as all the idiots claiming they were going to buy a steam deck instead. Yeah you're telling me you didn't get a Deck all these years when it was most useful, yet now that you can't afford the Switch 2 you're going to buy a Deck instead to not be able to play Switch 2 games? Huh?

Is Bravely Default good enough to justify getting it for 40 or should I emulate it?

What am I looking at?

Whoever said the Switch 2 would flop is a dumb motherfucker.

3rd party launch titles available for preorder and how many times they were mentioned ITT compared to nintendo IPs

console price was never a problem (look at phones), it's games sales that are likely to not meet expectations

I've got a bunch of third party games on my Switch, I'll do the same with the Switch 2.

The CORRECT choice.

switchy2.png - 1840x1400, 1.48M

there are people older than 12 that play nintendo games

Fuck.gif - 400x279, 1.78M

I think switch 2 being a multiplat machine would be really cool but I feel like most people don't think like that.

Like it would be cool if you could buy upgraded versions of the multiplat games you bought on switch 1 but Nintendo has only shown upgrades for 1st party games and no one seems to care.

Half of this board owns a $900 iphone or samsung
the switch 2 is cheap

So what's your point? Nintendo fans only play Nintendo games so they're dumb for buying the new Nintendo console day 1 because it only has 1 Nintendo game... That just so happens to be Nintendo's biggest franchise spun off from their most popular IP?

I know, right, they could be playing all of the kiddie games on the manly mature adult consoles made by Sony and Microsoft.

I feel like most people don't think like that.

The Switch has the most multiplats out of any console last gen. If there wasn't a market of people who thought like that then it wouldn't exist.

over 1700 scalper listings for $600 or more on a console that has not yet released

Nope, no scalpers here.

1700 bag holders

1700 more products lazy faggot scardy cat company should have produced. Sad!

harder.jpg - 363x310, 33.34K

Basically, yeah.

I think that's fucking stupid. It would be less stupid if the game were more impressive, if it were smash, Pokemon or a new BotW-like zelda game but still kinda stupid given the price tag.

Astrobot is nintendo game?

They've been producing units for launch for 9 months they've got the biggest stockpile for any console launch of all time. You do realize these things have to be physically produced in the real world which requires time and materials and manual labor? You can't just conure more product out of thin air

inb4 I'm intimately familiar with Nintendo's supply chain my uncle told me they could easily have 500k more units ready right now

They've been producing units

Yeah so it's on them.

they've got the biggest stockpile for any console launch of all time.

Apparently not since they still somehow sold out and all those "scalpers" somehow got more than the "one preorder per household quota" Nintendo themselves moderates. Oops, guess they didn't know how popular they were, yeah that's what it is.

You do realize these things have to be physically produced in the real world which requires time and materials and manual labor?

You can't just conure more product out of thin air

You realize this is what a "preorder" negates, right? So open up more preorders with a different delivery date for all those late blooming non nintendo direct watchers you failed to groom earlier, miser company. Let them know they can purchase it for that price, that they don't have to rely on that "scalper" whose ending up working more than full time graveyard shift playing musical chairs with nintendo accounts.
But they don't do that do they? No, they let scalper charge $600 so their retarded avid fanbase thinks they can charge $450 for it normally. It's a bullshit excuse with more lies on top of the excuse to justify it.

Call it Big N's razor: "For Nintendo prices to keep existing, "scalpers" must keep existing." Really it's a razor for every entertainment company.

Yes, actually, they do. Register on Nintendo's website and they will sell you a console directly at MSRP. They only just announced yesterday that those who registered might not get them at launch, but I imagine a lot of registrants such as myself ended up securing a pre order somewhere else so Nintendo will have more to sell directly. Emails for those go out on May 8th

So then the only thing those people who missed the window of opportunity are gonna regret are not being the beta testers for all the patching and bugs. If I didn't know how miser company rolls already I would say something supportive like "well you can always wait till they do the usual Christmas sale", but as we discovered "scalpers exist" now. Or "always did exist" or whatever.

preorders

Reminder that Wii U preorders also sold out instantly.
Diehards and scalpers will always be in a mad rush for things like this. I'd have bought one too if I was a scalping piece of shit. Easy $500 flipping it to some idiot.

only retard indie devs would bet on switch 2, the most plausible scenario is indies parking on switch 1 for a good 5 years just like it happened with ps4.

Holiday season is gonna be pretty interesting, zero chance we get a zelda/mario for those months. my bet is a rushed pikmin/luigi's mansion game, probably a few uninspired ports of captain toad and the like

Still not buying this shit

Sorry babe, I have to
You were a defect purchase. On top of the usual shortcoming as such as overheating, the dock was fucked as in kept cutting off every hour + the wifi chip got busted not Two years in. Because I did not pay for the warranty I had to search for someone to fix it which thankfully I did.
Now I really hope my luck will not fuck over me again

oshawott.jpg - 376x361, 13.34K

I'm assuming Metroid in September, Zelda Warriors in October, Pokemon ZA in November and Kirby Air Riders in December. I wouldn't be surprised to see them coast on these alone but they might throw out a Mario sports game or Luigi's mansion like you say. Star Fox would be cool

Nintendo games haven't been good for years now
Why do you still play them

Name some good games that released in the last five years.

They're in a bubble, they literally do not know any better and have been conditioned into thinking games like pokemon are somehow above shovelware while looking down on everything they don't have access to because they don't have access to it. It's why nintendo knows they can charge $10 for the most corporate looking piece of shit manual for their system with minigames that look worse than shovelware tier.

while looking down on everything they don't have access to

Aren't most tendies idorts though? That doesn't really make sense, unless you're just doing that thing where people take criticisms about the Sony fanbase and slap Nintendo on it.

Aren't most tendies idorts though?

I'm having trouble imagining the person that already owns a gaming PC or a PS5 but would somehow choose to also purchase a Fisher Price tablet.

I own a PC, an Xbox series S, an oled switch and just pre-ordered the switch 2.
I am never buying anything Sony makes, their consoles have always been shit and only retards were psy-opped into buying them.

Don't think about the things shitposters say. It's like how they said

YOU ONLY LIKE BOTW BECAUSE IT'S THE FIRST OPEN WORLD NINTENDO GAME!!!

despite several being on Nintendo systems prior

Nintendo made the bold claim their consumer base are retarded cattle fit only for exploitation.
Their fans then said yes with a Chad face, they love it.

In other words, you're looking down on everything you don't have access to.

I have access to every Nintendo game on PC, not that they're worth my time to even emulate

reminder that even the xbox series x was sold out everywhere for a year after launch

In English?

tfw too poor to preorder

have to ask the store clerk to ask three days before sale to reserve a normal switch 2 or a bundle for me

Oh well

That was during a period where Chinese factories were completely empty for months due to the coof.

Which isn't something someone who actually emulate would say which suggests you only have a PlayStation.
Which would make sense, since they're the only ones with real beef with Nintendo games since they don't have access to them.

Anon Babble reeeing cause nintendo wins again

video games for the whole family instead of edgy teens

Nintendo is like Games Workshop. They found out their fanbase are mentally ill and cannot be trusted with money so they'll charge whatever they want and the fans will pay it. Just because.

normies dont even know you can play $80 switch 2 versions of games for $0 on Ryujinx.

the next time I dust off the emulator will be metroid, probably. Switch 2 emulation will happen for sure though.

I'M READY... I'M READY... I'M READY to pay the scalper tax because there ain't no chance in hell I'm going to get a preorder...

people make fun of nintendo for spamming mario or zelda games, but people keep buying them, otherwise they wouldnt make them. same reason we dont get f zero games, no one bought them

Aren't most tendies idorts though?

There's a massive number that aren't. It's more like most idorts have a nintendo system, not most people with a nintendo system are idorts.
As one such idort, nintendo's modern games suck.

Nintendo is like Games Workshop

Eternally pissed because their fans are constantly leaving them because recasters are a significantly better and cheaper option?
You just like saying random things don't you.

It's more like most idorts have a nintendo system, not most people with a nintendo system are idorts.

You know that like 70% of Nintendo owners have another system, right? That would make the second statement correct while the first would suggest the opposite.

I am genuinely sad the ps5/switch 2 are so forgettable. ps5 has no big games, switch 2 has no big games and it's just mariokart + forza horizon but not as pretty as horizon.

no launch mario/zelda game is stupid.

You guys made fun of playstation for years when this console only has one actual launch title.

One more than PS5 + Donkey Kong Bananza is coming the month after that. Already in a better spot.
NTA but Mario Kart World and Bravely Default.

we'll never get a n64/ps1 console era again, or snes/genesis. ignore sales, console QUALITY has become much worse. SNES for example had a billion good Square and Enix RPGs.

70%

You got a source for that?

Donkey Kong Bananza is coming the month after that

For some reason I was thinking it comes out in September.

Consoles peaked 20-30 years ago. They are literally just abusive redundant dogshit now that cling to consumer ignorance to stay relevant.

Switch 2 got DK Bananza next month after release

Most people that buy ps5s buy them to play cod with their friends

PS5BROS....DON'T LOOK

The problem is that a lot of people who dislike Nintendo live in a bubble of basically blind hatred. Because they don't have access to Nintendo games on their platform of choice they tend to praise "alternatives" or project their own issues like hating games because they don't have access to them, it's why you constantly see them begging for Nintendo games to come to PC or PlayStation officially but you never see the opposite, hell, the closest thing to it was the time persona fans wanted p5 ported to the switch because they wanted a portable version to buy.
I miss that period, there was one guy anons used to bring up as an example of a Nintendo fan port begging and it turned out he had a full playthrough of royal on his channel where he admitted he only wanted a switch for portable persona rather than the other way around.

PC is great except GPUs cost an arm and leg right now, mostly. People get fucked by intentional supply shortages from Nvidia (and AMD even).

I also want to believe GW gives that much of a shit, but no sadly most people stay in the GW orbit. And get angry if you mention other games for some reason. Or that 5 banshees for $55 isn't actually a bargain.
I've just been conditioned at this point to expect absolute mindless consumption from certain groups of people.

Based Persona fan for seeing the advantages of portable playing.

Scalpers will lose so much money.

I think a deck is a far better value just for emulation, even.

There's literally no reason to buy this piece of shit at launch.

Translation:

St-Stop buying it!!! Please don't!!! Jesus Christ stop having fun!!!!!

but no sadly most people stay in the GW orbit.

Oh not at all. GW has been doing everything in their power to stop recasters to no avail. Then there's the fact that a lot of 40k players are moving to other, cheaper plamo like Gundam now.

I've just been conditioned at this point to expect absolute mindless consumption from certain groups of people.

Seems like you've been conditioned to think that everything that isn't what you like is mindless consumption.

everyone is ignoring the fact that the index is broken

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!!

PC doesn't have to beg for Nintendo games, it gets all their games for free. Nintendo is simply very easy to hate. I grew up with them, I have access to their full library on PC better and for free, and I hate them now for the kind of scummy corporation that they are.

The deck didn't exist at the time, this was like 2018-19 ish

I'll let you know that it's not just you.

You didn't explain how Nintendo is scummy, just how you yourself are

if someone does play a lot on the go a switch has value but if it's for home only i'd just wait for switch 2 emulator and use ryujinx for all the switch 1 games, metroid is coming to both anyway

PC doesn't have to beg for Nintendo games

And yet you see it all the time with people even begging Nintendo to make their own launchers. Which is understandable since emulation comes with it's own assortment of issues.

and I hate them now for the kind of scummy corporation that they are.

Okay, so what are they doing worse than everyone else. Comparisons are how determine what's bad you know.

You're not even trying to read.

If actually owning my Nintendo games that I bought makes me scummy then Nintendo has their dick in every one of your orifices. You already know, you just don't care, don't waste my time.

There are people in this thread unironically thinking the Switch 2 will do a Wii U like The fact the Switch 2 got a Pokemon under its launch year titles means the Switch 2 will sell at LEAST 10-20 million copies.

The biggest consoomers of all time, Pokefags, will buy the Switch 2 in droves to play the first humanly playable 3D Pokemon game.

Anon Babbletroons fucking seething and humiliated as always.

I have literally never seen anyone want Nintendo to make their own launcher, let alone beg for it. I've seen predictions that's what they'll inevitably do, but never seen anyone ask for it. People on PC despise redundant abusive launchers and Nintendo would definitely be among the worst, so I doubt that's what anyone wants, but nobody expects them to put their games on Steam or anything either.

What games did you buy? You just got done bragging about how you get them all for free

I have literally never seen anyone want Nintendo to make their own launcher

It happens all the time in these begging threads, of course you'd only know that if you frequented the PC sphere of video games which you clearly don't.
Also you completely avoided the second part of the post.

Well over a hundred growing up. And I said I have access to them, I didn't say I downloaded every single one of their games. They are readily available on PC, better and for free. That's a simple fact, so nobody on PC is going to be begging for Nintendo to come and overcharge them for a worse experience. That's a Nintendo fanboy cope to justify their own purchases.

And yet I've never seen any such begging and provided a reason why I think you're just making it up.
And yes I did, because you're not asking in good faith. You already know what Nintendo does, I'm sure you defend it constantly. Don't waste my time.

Nintendo can fuck off for normalizing $80 or $90 games btw.

I bought 3x Nintendo Switch2s as well.

Buy not accidentally.

You're this passionate about Nintendo being scumbags but aren't confident enough in even a single example because you're sure it'll be refuted? Seems like your position isn't that strong

normalizing

It was bound to happen eventually. $60 isn't sustainable in these times for developers.

And yet I've never seen any such begging

Because you don't frequent pc threads. It's pretty obvious that you don't.
That or you're just lying because it helps your narrative. Either one could be plausible but either way because of your dishonesty you've created an impasse.

And yes I did,

No you didn't, like i said, comparisons are how you identify something as bad and you've refused to choose one to compare them to.

I wonder if they truly removed the BS part -The hourglass

We're not getting BS remaster (yet). It's just BD1.

I am confident you are a fanboy who has heard all of it and bent over backwards to defend all of it.

That would be Sony anon. They normalised this a long time ago.

You mean:

St-Stop buying it!!! Please don't!!! Jesus Christ, leave a Switch 2 for me too!!!!!

Because you don't frequent pc threads

I do. You've yet to provide any proof for your claims so by all means.

You won't know that unless you give examples, for all we know your issues are industry issues or ones you've made up

What happened to him anyways? He just gave up once the hack happened?

newzoo.com/resources/rankings/top-ps5-games
Fortnite and Cod consistently have the highest MAUs on PS5.

Actiblizz don't release individual unit sales, they release aggregate revenue streams so things like game sales and microtransactions across the entire game through every version.

an actiblizz quarterly earnings will say something like

Net bookings on PC and console grew strongly year-over-year, as players continued to engage and invest in the Call of Duty blah blah blah

We don't know the exact number but we know it's a fuckton, sony knows but they don't disclose it probably due to a publisher agreement.

elden f'n ring was $60.

I do.

Judging by your ignorance I would say otherwise and you're still not making a comparison.

switch 2 is just going to be ps5 with occasional mario and zelda games, it's going to be a port machine with even more shovelware.

why buy a ps5 or switch 2 at all?

So it's going to be vastly superior than the PS5?

stuck with my RX 5700xt for the last 3 years

every new card is MSRP + 200 bucks

when will the suffering end!

that doesnt say a lot, it means mostly forgettable, and you get a zelda game in 2-3 years.

SPAWNWAVE PLEASE HELP I NEED TO PREORDER THE SWITCH 2 I DONT WANNA PAY A SCALPER $1k FOR A SWITCH 2!

So vastly superior.

Mario and related franchises alone is already a better set of exclusives than anything Sony's cooking since Mario can make do with any kind of budget depending on the game.

if you build a PC you can just emulate the first party nintendo games.

when's the switch 2 emulator coming?

Pokemon Legends ZA will be playable on the original switch. Similarly Pokemon Black / White didn't help the poor sales of 3DS consoles.

Nintendo isn't perfect but they do games and the business of names better than anyone in the industry (at their scale) which is why I like them. You're right most complaints against Nintendo are petty and retarded or straight up lies but they do bad shit sometimes. Don't be a coward

Charging for the BotW TotK upgrades is scummy as fuck. I'm willing to pay because the games themselves are worth it but I don't like how they haphazardly threw together some bullshit app with the original gamepad functionality to justify the upgrade cost

What the fuck? Did spawnwave get bullied as a nerd kid and said "NEVER AGAIN"?

He's BIG, BLACK, (and) JACKED

No, shut up, everyone on pc is begging nintendo for ports!

You would need to build an emulator first and be wary about what you share since you're emulating them illegally.

bro just sit at a desk to emulate a handheld

Hard to believe there's still retards who are baffled as to how Nintendo sold 150 million Switches.

PLZA is not unstable mess on the Switch 2
PLZA will be an unstable on the Switch 1

We haven't seen any switch 2 footage for it yet anon.

I wonder how emulators for the switch 2 will work when i hear it's using DLSS so heavily. Do i need to buy an nvidia card?

That's small child's play and no, you won't.

It will take a long ass for emulators to pop up though.

honestly, it will probably be out before the first big game of 2026 is out. ryujinx will get updated, motivated by $80 titles.

Anon, you know they would have to make a whole new emulator, right?
It's not a matter of just updating an old one.

Yes we have. In the April 2nd direct they showed 60fps footage

there isn't really much "new" to the switch 2, it's just better tegra hardware + dlss. it's not like they radically changed stuff. if it is ps4 tier and we have a bloodborne emulator already, it will happen.

Most people are dumb cattle and nintendo knows that and exploits them, not hard to figure out.

we have a bloodborne emulator already

nigga that took 10 years, "already" my ass lmao

if it is ps4 tier and we have a bloodborne emulator already, it will happen.

You have no idea how emulation works, do you.

and we have a bloodborne emulator already

Anon, emulation has nothing to do with the power of the system. Just look at how long it took for a PS3 emulator to come about.

there's PS3 emulators? how good is it?

switch emulation didnt take long and people are even more motivated now cause of the shit game prices.

I didn't hab da money to buy pre-order one

This won't acutally matter to the majority of players. Also because it's a switch 2 edition you can just play it later at better framerate if you decide to buy a switch 2 at some point. You're not missing out on anything by playing it on the original switch.

Switch emulation didn't take long because the X1 was already fully documented, everyone knew the ins and outs and even then it took three years for a usable emulator to be released making it the third slowest Nintendo console emulator to be developed.

Says the poorfag sitting at a desk begging for Nintendo emulators

have the money

preorders full everywhere

I'm a bong, people should hate Nintendo here.

I JUST PREORDERED FROM WALMART EVERYTHING IS COMING UP MILLHOUSE!

it's sold out in bong land? what the fuck

there is no rush, and it's not worth spending $600 for mariokart which will be out for 10+ years.

wait months to import a JPN Wii

shit disc drive, send it back to Japan

wait years to import a NA Wii

shit disc drive, send it back to the US

buy a day 1 Switch in Japan

it lasts the entire generation with no issues

yeah fuck you
I'll do what I want

The people have spoken

It's selling out mostly anywhere from the sounds of it.

Also, gamestop choose the stupidest and most inconvenient time to start their in-store preorders.
Who the fuck is waiting in line for a preorder at 11AM on a Thursday? People have to fucking work.

My launch Switch is doing just fine with the exception the the Joycon railing, but that's a natural effect of weathering.

Who the fuck is waiting in line for a preorder at 11AM on a Thursday?

Is nintendo the only one selling the dock? I have an office and a home theater I want docks in so I need the extra.

I can just emulate metroid or pokemon on ryujinx, why buy a switch 2?

People have to fucking work

lol
If you look at the pictures, it's the fattest, greasiest manchildren. They don't work, that's their parent's money.

there are games you can't play on rujinx like mario kart and expand dong

I work third shift so it was perfect for me

Best versions of those games will be on Switch 2. And portable.

Does waiting a year to buy it make it cheaper somehow? If you know you want one, there's not any particular reason to not get it at launch, provided you are able to at MSRP.

Given the tariff situation you are retarded not buying one at launch if you want one down the line.

This shit could be like 5 or $600 in like 2 months.

mario kart

Don't care, haven't touched mario kart since 64

expand dong

Looks like boring shit

Wake me up once smash 6 comes out or something

Best versions of those games will be on Switch 2

Wrong. Emulated versions have always been superior. Also, why the fuck would you want to play a FPS with on a handheld? Only metroid prime hunters managed to pull that off thanks to its somehow genius control scheme

i wonder if scalping is big in europe

The Switch 2 version is the only version with mouse controls.

I heard it's the worst in the US but other places do have them

All I'm reading is you have shit taste and don't understand prime. It's not an fps

I wonder how many people who preordered are just scalpers.

trade deals with vietnam looks like its working out
the vietnamese govt are suddenly cracking down on chinese exporters using them as fake country of origins. seems like they won't get more tariffs

People like this. I wish I could have waited overnight i would have gotten doordash or something. Definitely would be livestreaming for donos to offset the cost of the Switch 2

according to ebay, at least 17,000 are
but they're not setting the price that high, its only 100 to 200 higher than MSRP. what a hassle to barely make any money

Literally everyone with an office job can just take a half day and come in after lunch. Unless you work at fucking Starbucks or some job with fixed shifts in which case you're too poor to be buying a Switch 2 anyway.

a ton of those auctions are scam options. Any that say

READ THE DESCRIPTION

are selling photos of a switch 2 not the console.

bought 2 for scalping it to nintendogs

qfg.jpg - 1024x1024, 219.97K

The Switch 2 version is the only version with mouse controls.

Tech illiterate retard, emulatorfags were able to play the prime remaster with KB+M controls just fucking fine, they'll also do the same with Prime 4 youtube.com/watch?v=HVfgRrJXTEU
Also, imagine shilling muh portability AND muh mouse controls at the same time. Make up your fucking mind, you can't get both at the same time

They are FPS games if you ignore the retarded lock on feature that plays the game for you

Donkey Kong sales will be telling. It just occurred to me that the Mario kart bundle probably exists as a way to force scalpers to buy a game so Nintendo aren't losing out on software sales while that unit is waiting to be resold

I'll get one when piracy is widely documented and available.

The problem with voting with your wallet is you can't vote "no".

you can't get both at the same time

Nintendo made it clear the mouse is also made to be used with your legs, no tables needed

damn, that dastardly. Does ebay allow those transactions to go through?

weathering

nigga do you keep your switch in a rainforest outhouse what does this even mean

Nintendo made it clear the mouse is also made to be used with your legs

Only works if you're a fatass with extremely tick legs

Yes you can, it's called not buying.
Your issue is that you're angry people don't agree with you.

if i think the new mario kart and pokemon games both suck, why should i care about this?

I've shut a couple down with reports. They say they are doing it to "combat scalpers" but that seems like an excuse to screw over grandmas not paying attention because they are like

NO REFUNDS WHATSOEVER

most scalpers are gonna be in chinese places tho

you definitely can vote no

blame scalpers.

that's literally why I did it, I pre-ordered on day one so I could avoid the scalper's blade myself, several people did the same, and those self-same scalpers have been securing as many units as possible.

Scalpers ruin literally everything, see also why every piece of Dogshit Sony releases sells out, do we have to bring up the PS Portal again?

I don't think you understand that Mario Kart is basically the only other series that's on par with GTA in hype, popularity, immense mass appeal, and quality at this point

The reason is, there's no reason to not buy one
You buy it, and if there's a shortage issue, you profit since tendies will gladly pay you the scalper tax
If scalping turns out to be impossible, you have a day 1 switch model that will definitely get hacked in the following years. And even if you hate tendieshit games, it's still a viable way to pirate denuvo games just like how it happened with the switch 1

still available on the MediaWorld (MediaMarkt) website in Italy, maybe they'll send it to the UK bong-bro

the 'Drop the Price' crowd when not pre-ordering it means they have to buy it through a Scalper and the price is even higher than the RRP

not saying the price shouldn't be dropped, but they likely made a short-sighted decision that's gonna backfire

8gjvrs.png - 500x500, 327.48K

Did you see the joycons? They are thin as fuck, even skeletons can use them on their legs

Or they could just...not buy it.

Not everyone needs the new BING BING WAHOO title

i thought the drop the price was for the games, were they also referring to the console too?

Yes, because it's still a blatant scam trying to profit off of idiots under the guise of trying to fight scalpers. But ebay is full of that shit and they make it a pain in the ass to do anything so they'll stay up.

I have a shitty laptop so I'll be buying the Switch 2. Never owned a PS4 or Xbox One (or whatever released afterwards). Plus Air Ride 2 is my most wanted game since I was a kid. What's the issue here?

because the people crying 'drop the price' don't WANT the item in the first place, right?
are you retarded?

That's nintendo coping and trying to sell this dogshit half-baked idea. It looks like absolute ass even just trying to use it on a table, nobody is going to use them on their legs.

the problem arises when Scalpers are voting yes 10x times each, nobody was trying to Scalp concord, we all knew it was dogshit

They are saying drop the price because standardizing $80 games is aids.

GTA 6 is guaranteed to be at least $80 if not more after this.

Roxkstar was talking about making the game $100 PRIOR to the Switch 2's reveal.

rumors =/= facts

Rockstar wasnt, other publishers were because they want to be able to increase the price of their games.

If GTA 6 is $100 suddenly $80 doesnt look so bad! If you noticed no one said shit about ghost of yotei being announced as a $70 game this week. No one cares anymore the perception has shifted. They want to keep doing this until we are paying phantasy star genesis prices for everything.

I am not buying a device aimed at children, fags and women. Simple as.

Feels good being a tendie.

Not even close. GTAV sold nearly 4 times more than MK8 did.
I haven't seen anyone hyped for this MK. People are saying it looks slow, boring, samey, a pointless open world, uglier than MK8, etc. Not to say it won't sell, but I don't see any hype whereas GTAVI has tons.

There's still idiots who thinks consoles will get price drops. Gaming is becoming a luxury thing in general

They're in a bubble

Ironically lately it feels like it's Anon Babble that's in a bubble completely failing to recognize vidya consumers aren't a single monolith and there's plenty of people who are totally okay with buying the newest Mario box most notably in Japan

BUT DUDE RYUJINX

Casuals aren't gonna bother dealing with setting it up then dealing with shader recomplilation stutters when they can just go and buy it and have it work

yeah, we live in an era where consoles only get price hikes

GTA6 will probably sell more, but to say there's no hype for Mario Kart is silly. Plus plenty of people who play Mario Kart don't get hyped for it online, they see it, think "oh this is fun to play with my friends" and pick it up. It's the ultimate normalfag multiplayer game.

most notably in Japan

Because they're mindless consoomer guinea pigs over there. Cheaper console, but getting fucked in the ass with game prices that are over 50% more expensive.

GTAV sold nearly 4 times more than MK8 did.

GTA V is on 10 different platforms lol

I haven't seen anyone hyped for this MK.

LMFAO the cope is at Chernobyl levels.

559.jpg - 595x960, 76.9K

So you're buying the switch 2 then.

The problem is normalfags already have a switch and mk8. What is there to justify spending over half a grand for a game that looks identical to what they already have? Casuals don't care and will be much stingier with their money as a result.

GTAV is on 7 different platforms and gives a shark card bonus for new game purchases. It's an extremely popular game no doubt but the sales are inflated. The number of people who play GTA and Mario Kart is probably the same

but tranime aimed at children, fags and women is okay

I'm not sorry facts offend you.

All this talk about GTA 6 when people are forgetting nintendo is launching switch 2 in the summer because the second GTA 6 comes out their sales will just stop, instantly for several months because EVERYONE will be playing that,

file.png - 1245x700, 807.73K

nintendo fans are also GTA fans

interesting

if they were smart they'd get GTAVI ported to Switch 2, I'm sure the Switch 2 can handle it

GTA6 will kill the Switch 2!

Here we go LMAO

360p DLSS upscale to 720p

i could see it

I wouldn't use gta 5 as an indicator of how well 6 will sell off the bat. You have to remember that the game was just barely outperforming other games in the series when taking into account the sheer amount of platforms it was on at first. It only exploded after the game had a significant price cut to shit 20 bucks and was getting sold with shark card codes worth more than that, something like 30 bucks worth.
In other words, you had a situation where whales were buying multiple copies of the game because it was more lucrative for them to do so than to buy the shark cards.

Unless gta 6 does the same we won't be seeing a repeat of 5 and if it really is 100 bucks then it's going to be a hell of a long time until that happens.

nintendo has always been a secondary platform.

Everyone else gets a PS5 or a PC first THEN a nintendo.

It's 2025, everyone has nigger fatigue by now, your nigger simulator will flop hard

Probably could since they are getting it working on Series S

Nintendo probably isn't too terribly worried since their games don't necessarily share the same audience and have fanbases that will buy them regardless but they will be affected. I think GTAVI is the reason Prime 4 doesn't have a release date

I like how consolefags treat 60 fps like it's an achievement

honest question: is all of the gta 6 obsession manufactured consent? I just dont give a shit about it, I didn't care about 5 either and never played it. I enjoyed GTA all the way through 4 including vice city stories, liberty city stories, and chinatown wars but the newer GTA games seem completely devoid of the old rockstar wit and all the veterans have left. I understand black zoomers feel the need to hype the game up because FOMO and missing out on Hyped Twitch Streamer Game is a terminal illness for them but I genuinely don't give a fuck and will not ever buy GTA 6. GTA Online and the shark cards bullshit seems like one of the worst possible multiplayer experiences there is today.

I love PC fags treat emulation like it's an achievement.

What is there to justify spending over half a grand for a game that looks identical to what they already have?

Anon, you're saying that in a world where they dropped more on a PS5 that literally has games that look AND play the same as ps4 games.
As much as you want to probably scream "whataboutism!" the point is that casuals will buy whatever they want regardless of change. That said, the reason why there's so much hype behind Kart World is that they've done nothing but focus on how different it is from the previous games

you tried

is all of the gta 6 obsession manufactured consent?

[GTAV] is the second-best-selling video game of all time with 210 million copies shipped, and one of the most financially successful entertainment products of all time, with over $8.5 billion in worldwide revenue.

That's fine I don't care, the people implying the gaming world will shut down for 6 months and everyone will just sit and replay the same story over and over or get farmed by whales in GTA online multiplayer seems insanely made up.

good morning sir

There is a reason no one has announce dates for their fall lineup yet.

Selling 210m copies and being in the hands of 210m people are two entirely different things especially for a game people bought multiple copies of for in game money.

see

This is a cope post.

is all of the gta 6 obsession manufactured consent?

It's take-two so it wouldn't surprise me at all. Paid shills cost nothing

Normalfags will blow 700 bucks on a new Ipad when their old one gets slow. Not saying that the Switch 2 will be as popular as the first, but normalfags love to blow money they don't have on fancy new tech to show to their friends.

Care to explain?

do not redeem

So you're saying for months everyone is going to sit and replay GTA missions over and over and play nothing else and buy nothing else. In a world where streamers hype a new game every 3 days. I'm not arguing it won't be the best selling game again, I'm arguing the world wont completely stop for this game which will be from a gameplay perspective probably the same as the last one.

GTA missions

You know it has online right? People have been playing fortnite and minecraft for over a decade.

Not getting one until it gets an exclusive Xenoblade.

casuals will buy whatever they want regardless of change

Yes, and casuals are going to determine whether the Switch 2 lives or dies. The fanboys who think MKW looks justified are a minority. Casuals aren't paying attention to any of this right now, they haven't weighed in, and they are the vast majority of Nintendo's audience. They'll look at the price in the store, they'll look at the near identical game they already have, and what they decide to do next is what will matter.

That's fine, the online is worse than most of the other live service slop zoomers play, and those games have proven borderline impossible to pry people away from. You know Take Two doesn't pay you to dick ride the game in switch threads right?

People will buy anything with a Nintendo label on it.

walmart in burgerland has open preorders right now. they've been open for hours, there's a lot of stock.

That's because you live in a bubble where gta isn't on your system.

GTA is popular so it makes sense that it's hyped, but I feel like a lot of the hype for the game comes from the people that were kids when 5 came out. Kids who were 10 when it first came out are now in their 20s, of course they're going to want another one to recapture that magic. Too bad that basically means the campaign will be just as shit as 5's and all the focus will go to online.

Did you people seriously not know how much GTAV sold and this is coming as a surprise to you now? For a fanbase so hellbent on flaunting around sales as the be all end all for everything, quality or consumer friendliness be damned, that's kind of funny.

Kids who were 10 when the first gta came out are in their 40s

I'm in a bubble for not doomposting in a switch thread that no one will play switch games for months due to GTA releasing?

Do we know if you could use a normal keyboard and mouse on the Switch 2? I'd like to play Splatoon that way.

They'll all be extremely aware of mkw on June 6 when it's suddenly the new coolest thing in the world that's sold out everywhere. The fanboys will be the only ones playing and best believe we're gonna hype it the fuck up all year long

Doubtful, every other platform shoves you on PC servers if you do that now because it's too big of an advantage but Nintendo doesn't have PC servers for their games.

looks like it's just joy con mouse for now, no native mouse and keyboard support

My fucking face when the Steamy Dick gets vastly more games and support regardless.

The fanboys who think MKW looks justified are a minority. Casuals aren't paying attention to any of this right now

Anon, there are currently three groups.
People who hate Nintendo for interaction, journalists and youtubers for example.
Fanboys who haven't said much sincd they know what they're getting
And finally casuals who are currently in the process of turning on the people who hate Nintendo.

You're saying they aren't weighing in but the fact of the matter is that they are, through things like comments sections.
You need to get out of your bubble.

The only thing I've seen people doing is dumping on it. Even among fanboys I've seen very few hyping it. If anything, many of them seem more disappointed than anyone.

Damn. I was really hoping for that. Maybe some sort of adapter will come out. Thanks for the answers, bros.

file.png - 600x382, 453.81K

Journos suck Nintendo's dick hard. If you think journos of all people hate Nintendo, you are delusional.

And finally casuals who are currently in the process of turning on the people who hate Nintendo

Definitely delusional.

I'm excited since its a more powerful steam deck with games that devs actually optimize for.

Portable, HDR cyberpunk is the stuff of dreams.

journos absolutely hate nintendo and dick ride snoy obsessively. and it's 100% to do with politics, or rather nintendos lack of getting involved in modern day politics versus snoys love of wading into that mess.

I wouldn't risk using an adapter, you could get console banned for cheating. There's adapters for Xbox/PS that allow you to use KB/Mouse and still get console auto aim and those are blacklisted now and people that used them got console banned.

God the irony of this post is so lost on you.
You're the only one here taking sales at face value anon because you're thinking

wow big number means it will always sell that way!

Meanwhile the post you're replying to isnt saying he didn't know it sold 210m, on the contrary, he's telling you WHY it did, not taking it at the face value number to tell you that in the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter and unless they drastically drop the price and sell it with mtx they aren't going to get even half that amount.

Portable, HDR cyberpunk is the stuff of dreams.

Switch 2 is weaker when portable. The Deck can play it with true HDR on an OLED at 40fps medium-high settings with a better battery life.
But of course that gets ignored and it's only the stuff of dreams now when Nintendo does it, even when they do it worse.

support

Shit Deck gets no support. Nobody is making games for Shit Deck. Not one game. It's a Nokia N-Gage tier disaster flop lmao

esoo4_400.gif - 268x268, 2.58M

I guess you're right. It kinda sucks since there is, in theory, no advantage to me using a normal mouse and keyboard when everyone else also has access to a mouse whenever they want. It's not the end of the world for me to have to use mousecon, but I find my mouse comfy. Would be nice.

None of this is accurate. I had a deck and it kept crashing cyberpunk. It needed optimization that devs did for switch 2.

You're the only one here taking sales at face value anon because you're thinking

Don't even. You fags dickride nintendo's sales so hard you see stars and it blinds you to everything else.

eow opens with a black character being the first one you meet

You're retarded lmao. EoW and Princess Peach Showtime are both girl boss games too, Nintendo panders hard as fuck to the west and journos they just leave homosexuality out of it because the games are aimed at kids and parents would get pissy.

Journos suck Nintendo's dick hard

You're joking, right?
The drifting issue alone proves you wrong since they all acted as if it was a Nintendo exclusive issue despite every controller since gen 8 having drifting issues.

The keyboard is a much better control scheme that has a lot more keybinds. They want everyone on the same control schemes because that's more fair. Using KB/M is like bringing a hitbox to a fighting game tournament where everyone else is only using a controller. You will have a massive advantage due to the control scheme.
