Its another Wii U situation all over again. Everyone is saying it. The Wii U hit maximum preorders and failed. Th switch 2 will kill Nintendo

Switch2 hate is so forced

nah it will be PS3 situation
pricey as fuck but still successful, just not as its predecessor

Well the Wii U was a golden era of nintendo games, just look at how the majority of switch 'must-haves' are wii u ports.

not as forced as Nintendo forcing the price to 80 dollars

kill nintendo

No they would need 10 wii u style failures

priced out of the middle class hobby? lol

the wii plus DS combined sold more than the switch during that era and the wii u almost killed shitendo. A Switch 2 failure could easily bankrupt them since they dont really on microtransactions

Another eight years of you getting raped and gaped lmao

ban evading? Remember that last nintendo thread when 50+ of your posts got deleted? Lmao

Switch 2 is being *SOFT LAUNCHED*

The hardware trailer was designed to be as dull as possible. The release line-up is designed to be as pedestrian as possible. No big hitters, no big splashes -> SOFT LAUNCH

They want a smooth slow ramp over from Switch 1 to Switch 2 as they are still making BANK from Switch 1. They delayed launching Switch 2 as long as possible and then have done it pretty quietly and in a way designed to only skim enthusiasts away from Switch 1

We won't see Switch 2 big hitters until 2026. SOFT LAUNCH

these sour grapes sure are sour

Its le wii u!!

sometimes i wish there profiles so in time i can come back and rub peoples faces in the stupid shit theyve said
no it didnt incel

100+ for the wii 150+ for the DS

100 mil + 150 mil is 250+ mill. They were more profitable back in the days. Therefore if the switch poo flops nintendo will go under

soyn and poorfags are trying so hard

i mean you have a point, its just launching with Mario Kart?

$500 for a console with a masterpiece is too much

but no one complained about a $700 digital only console with no games

Kill yourself Eric. Looking forward for ten years of your ass raped and gaped.

This thursday is going to be fun

oopsie, I got so mad I quoted wrong

go back to sharty, baitnigger

Nintendo: about to die since 1889.

mindbroken

I just bought a new OLED for $250. Just missing HDMI cable. Skipping the switch 2. Waiting for the Lenovo legion go 2.

More like a 3DS situation with less games, but they won't be able to cut the price this time. It probably won't break 100 million.

I can't even buy the fucking thing since it sold out instantly.

anyone sign up for gthe notify me email on intendos website?
anyone get an email to preorder through that yet?
I'm wondering when those are going to start going out

Why don't you try evading oxygen, schizo

Hmmm what if we took the Wii but gave it a more social gaming spin?

Hmmm what if we took the Switch but gave it a more social gaming spin?

I looked, but if they already did the "sign up for it" part I must have missed it.

Donkey Kong is out in mid July, but yes. Every other game is a port.

they start going out thursday

Offers to sign up or offers to try and reserve?

A thousand thanks to you, good Anon.

Makes sense. They just released a big OS update for the Switch 1, with the virtual game cards. They expect both systems to coexist for a while.

It's not. Go buy your Steam Deck and/or be happy with what you have. We don't care about you and your YouTuber tier opinions.

Are you guys just stupid or lying for some reason

2024: it's gonna be wii u 2.0, just you watch

2025: it's gonna be wii u 2.0, just you watch

2026: it's gonna be wii u 2.0, just you watch

2027: it's gonna be wii u 2.0, just you watch

2028: it's gonna be wii u 2.0, just you watch

2029: it's gonna be wii u 2.0, just you watch

2030: it's gonna be wii u 2.0, just you watch

They expect both systems to coexist for a while.

if this was the case mario kart world and DK would be on switch 1.

the wii plus DS combined sold more than the switch during that era

They sold more than everything from every era and will never be passed ever by anyone

and the wii u almost killed shitendo.

No it didn't

Switch 2 is the first Nintendo console I'm not getting on launch.
I've had all of them since the N64 including handhelds. I don't care for Donkey Kong or Mario Kart. Really was hoping for new IP.

This board willingly buys GPUs that have zero games exclusive to them, so it’s hard to take Anon Babble's word seriously. In reality, Nintendo will be fine, and the PCasuals who infest this board will cope and seethe accordingly while begging for an emulator.

Th switch 2 will kill Nintendo

No, it won't. Tendies will buy anything Nintendo makes.

PS3 is the bar for absolute flopped consoles, not WiiU

What about cripple basketball?

Really was hoping for new IP.

retarded ass nigga.

No big hitters

Mario Kart is literally the biggest hitter they have.

riiiiiiiiiidge racer.

though i think it's a tie between xbone and ps3. at least for modern consoles.

Switch 2 is a PS5 situation where there won't be so many new games to play and a lot of people will be playing the software that was available for the predecessor, or continue to just play on the predecessor as software continues to be made for it.

It's why Nintendo is still bringing out new Switch games like Rhythm Heaven Groove, and Tomodachi Life Living the Dream in 2026. There's a huge install base to appeal to that won't be ready to get a Switch 2 at launch.
Switch 2 is a premium offering whilst the Switch 1 will continue on as the affordable option, that strategy is pretty obvious.

There's a huge install base to appeal to that won't be ready to get a Switch 2 at launch.

which is why mario kart world is switch 2 exclusive.

Retard tendie faggot.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_game_consoles
87 million PS3s solds, 13 million Wii U. Not to mention the PS3 factually had more exclusives than the Wii U did.

delay switch 2 as much as possible

release it in the middle of a trade war

shareholders should demand furukawa and bowser are sacked

Calm down.

NINTENDO HAS GAMES

it's the same shit they make every gen

BUT MY ONE MEME I'VE BEEN REPEATING SINCE 2007

time to give it a rest

I honestly don't get the "no games" narrative, switch 2 is gonna have more games in a little over half a year than the PS5 got in its entire lifetime so far

Yeah

Moving the goal posts doesn't change you being wrong, faggot. Profit has nothing to do with the Wii U, which was the entire point. The Switch 2 will lose Nintendo money.

Wrong. The Xbone sold four times as much as the Wii U, but still sold 29 million less than the PS3.

Nobody actually understands why the Wii U flopped (hint: the Switch 2 has avoided all of its mistakes)

no games

He never said that.

Sounsd like cope. Youtubers got proven wrong that normies don't care about their opinions. Most game releases exceeded expectations this year and yet we are suppose to believe it wont' happen for a new Nintendo console?

i hope it fails lmao
i got a switch as a gift and nintendo locked me out of my account i paid 50 dollars of digital games for
so fast
like i can still play the games but my acc cant be logged into lmao
fuck kiketendo.
desu they are the worst modern game console company
even worse than sony somehow
the only dev worse than them is blizzard or bungie

Factually incorrect, especially as it will never be able to run current gen games.

With the key card shit cancer, i hope they actually do fail this time.

Sounsd

I will no longer be speaking with snoys. They are insects, unfortunately.

Snoys in absolute shambles that the fucking thing isn't even out yet and almost has as many exclusives as the PS5 which has been out for almost 5 years now

False

They could have multiple wii u flops in a row and still survive. You underestimate how deep their pockets are.

Yeah, just like how the original Switch crash and burned like Anon Babble was going to say when it had an absolute terrible launch. BotW was a Wii U port, MK8D was a slightly enhanced Wii U game, and Splatoon 2 may as well have been a port with how minimally different it was. It still sold like gangbusters. The Switch 2 launch is already looking way better, but knowing normies they won't buy it because they are retarded.

Why were you locked out of your account?

And virtually no debt.

Wit more money coming in all the time from the theme parks.

Nah… the game industry as a whole will fail.

Playstation will have $80-100 games. Nintendo will $80-90 games. And now the Xbox will also have $80-90 games. It’s best to pirate. Fuck the game industry and fuck triple A games.

bring up labo as an argument of how Nintendo boys are mindless shills

literally nobody bought that crap

Gonna bring up Mario Kart live too?

cope and seethe

PLEASE FAIL OH GOD PLEASE FAIL I'VE BEEN GETTING HUMILIATED FOR 8 YEARS, PLEASE GOD I NEED IT TO FAIL

Nobody will ever lose more money on a product than Sony did with the PS3. Maybe Microsoft with Xbox but they're so stacked it doesn't change anything about their business. PS3 caused sony to be exiled from Japan and forced them to restructure their entire brand because the PS3 flopped to the tune of like 8 billion dollars lost and forfeited Japan to Nintendo forever.

got locked out of my aol email by the biden admin
2 factor was added the day i went to jail
not even joking
i hope the republicans win every election against the democrats lmao
i liteally did 16 months and i filed for a speed trial
the entire thing was rigged
lawyer was paid off by the state
state attorney commited perjury
dont live in maryland its a shithole run by niggers

Anon, what did you do?

soft launched

an estimated 5 million units are waiting in US warehouses for launch already with more on the way

Yeah, very soft. I don't think you know what that word means. The 5090 was a soft launch if not a paper launch. The Switch 2 has more units ready on launch day than any other console ever.

Switch 2 hate is so forced

Nah

It's deserved

You and I both know that's not a real game.

Nobody cares

I NEED PORN IN MY BIDEO GAME

Just goon for free like everybody else. Goonery in video games should be limited to sexy costumes and jiggly butts.

its ok when nintendo does it lol

leddit, twitter, and here are the exact same types of delusional echo chambers. funniest shit.

It's ok when anyone does it

street fighter 6 IS a current gen game

Switch is anti-fanservice

Based. Wanting to coom while playing vidya is like putting pineapple on pizza, you ruin two good things trying to force them together.

The difference here is when you buy a Sony console there's no guarantee of good exclusive games in the future. Most that come out will likely be multiplat, which is fine if you just want a plug-and-play thing attached to your TV, but useless to you if you already have a gaming PC.

For Nintendo, there's an implicit guarantee of good exclusive games that will come out in the future. I don't have to worry if I'm gonna have games to play, I know I will. This guarantee is part of Nintendo's business model; they know it, buyers know it, and they HAVE to fulfill it or they'll lose their customers' faith in their consoles.

nintengaf

You can play your porn shit on android now, probably 100% free. Go screech at famitsu faggots about it. I never cared.

Okay, let's look at Sony doing it. My reaction is the same. What now, retard?

Nigga you are acting like the famitsufaggot defending this shit

Anon, only stinky fags who refuse to shower screech about their fanservice being stripped of their vidya. Most people don't want that shit in.

I hope mario canonically recuses a black lesbian in the next mainline game you fucking fag

Pineapple on pizza is kinda good... not with red sauce though

Tendies spent the entirety of the last several years bragging about how Nintendo doesn't censor anymore albeit

Can't I just say they're also retarded
Why are you all so tribalistic

The Japanese version is censored too. So its not Nintendo of America at least.

They deserve another Wii-U bro

Whoever censored it isn't Nintendo. Blame the devs, maybe.

I just had to update my OG Switch and Switch lite for those "virtual game carts" BS.
What, if any, changes do those things introduce compared to previous? Is it just a new hoop to jump through or is there actually a meaningful change from how digital games worked before?

as long as it doesn't flop as bad as the PS3 nintendo will just reload and shit out another console.

Its part of the whole new "lending" thing you can do. If you own a digital version you can let a friend download a copy that erases itself after a certain time. That seems to be it.

Now you don't need for your secondary console to be online to play a game it "doesn't own" but the downside is that both consoles can't play off one license at the same time whereas before they could. That's it that's the change.

The point was alleging that the PS3 was more successful than the Wii U, showing otherwise is a counterpoint and not moving the goalposts
This is also wrong for the same reason, the Switch has been more profitable than the Wii + DS were combined for like five years now, units sold isn't the same thing as profit

based and true

And the people who actually care about that are always "that" person in the group who makes people uncomfy.

I hope you're right but consoomerism has gotten so much worse since the Wii U that I doubt it.

Fuck off, kosherbot.

uncomfy

go back

Oh, I didn't realize that, well then there is a benefit to the update (albeit small) and not JUST a hoop to jump through. In my case I never needed the same digital game to be playable on both my Switches so thats not a big loss for me. Not needing to be online is a larger benefit to me.
Eh, in this case no one I know has a Switch or would want to borrow games anyhow. Setting up a "family" would be the most I'd get out of it since I have 2 units and eventually might get an OLED to replace my OG Switch.

Pineapple on pizza is more often than not super dry when on the pizza, and when it's moist it makes the pizza too sweet. When I want pizza I want it savory with savory ingredients like garlic, mushrooms, maybe even a bit of onion. Trying to force the two together just waters down the best elements just like trying to put coom material in your vidya tends to water down the best elements too. I also don't play vidya to jerk off, that's for another time.

Fuck off to a loli thread.

No. Chatbots can't tell me what to do.

The Switch was massively successful financially, but every single entry on their first party franchises was the worst game in their series. The switch 2 won't fail because of the pricing, it will fail because their games will continue their design philosophy and be shit. Though they'll still sell. Nintendo is dead

Dread was far from the worst Metroid.

Switch 2 can't be another Wii U fiasco if all the other console alternatives are a dogshit deal in comparison. Who's gonna steal Nintendo's thunder this time? PC? Do you really expect extreme normies to shell out $1.5-2K on PC equipment/related items as a way to get back at Nintendo lol. At most they'll do is stay on Switch 1 until Ninty sunsets it.

What rumors of the PS5 Pro going to cost $900 due to tariffs does to a snoy.

everyone is saying it!

go and check

Turns out OP is the only one saying it

Cope and seethe retard

Snoys desperately clinging to the fact they had their sales plateau in an instant while Switch 2 is perfectly fine

Mario Kart is super evergreen like GTA.

Sorry but it's impossible to worse than any 3D game from the zelda dark ages.

sales = quality

The dark age just started, but of course zoomers like you will never understand. Inb4 Eric schizoism.

where's saddam hussein?

True
I forgot Pokemon is on mainline consoles now.
Add Pokemon slop to my list

These retards really think it's gonna fail when the launch lineup is already exponentially better with actual exclusives coming out and Animal Crossing and Pokemon practically confirmed for next year. Early 00s is also trendy among late zoomers and early gen alphas, and they're going to eat up that GameCube collection.

Why would anyone buy switch 2 then?

Why don't they just make a Pokemon MMO like TemTem (Without tranny trash). Those Pokemon MMO clones seem popular so it would be a huge hit and print money.

and basically everything else because most series had their best sales on switch

Pokemon

(Without tranny trash)

Choose one.

This. If it weren't for the Switch, I wouldn't have ANY consoles. Sony and MS just don't make anything that I like, and the things that do sell a lot are completely sus, like Horizon selling something like 50 million copies to the most quiet and bashful fanbase in history, or Game Pass's Six Gorillion Players! for games that get shit on in every forum all the time.

I boughted the Switch 2

But was it worth your entire Amiibo collection?

Because they have no incentive to. They can keep making the same unoptimized game over and over again, and it'll sell like hotcakes.

Perhaps some day sales will dip enough to scare Nintendo into making Gamereak mix things up, but for now its very much "if it ain't broke don't fix it".

Sony and MS are complete jokes these days. The amount of exclusives they released can be counted on one hand, and we're just now noticing what those systems can do. If they were smart, they would lengthen console cycles to put more investment on a console's software while giving consumers a noticeable difference when the next console releases, but they won't because the executives and shareholders are completely out of touch. They should wait until 2032 for next gen instead of 2026 like rumors are suggesting.

doing what?

good, let it fail so the Xbox handheld will have a better start

Censoring games with clouds.

It will have 2 exclusive approx one moth after release
Ps5 has 1 and xbox has 0 after 5 years
It cannot fail

I pirate every amiibo

do grown men actually still play mario games?

it was bound to happen eventually
i remember paying $60 for games when I was a toddler handing the cashier three $20 bills in birthday money 55+ years ago
with inflation and rising costs an production of games it only makes sense to increase the rpiaee of these things

They start going out on Thursday. I'm hoping I get mine.

Nintendo has been stockpiling consoles for a while, analysts are predicting the biggest console launch in history.

Based. I have 3 preorderd.

I honestly prefer if they would raise to like $500
Gaming and internet were the best when only rich white people could afford
Gaming should be like golf

Nintendo can afford 30+ years of nothing but absolute financial failure and bleeding money, because they're operating in the white with zero debt.
Nintendo isn't going to die.

Nintendo shills making anti-black memes to sell consoles to chuds

Xitter will hear of this.

grown men don't play video games, period. if you wanna be mature you should be playing tennis or chess, reading literature, dancing or making a lot of money

dancing

Ok Lance Bass.

I do and i bet i earn more and have bigger muscles and dick than you
