Anyone else have a kind of an icky feeling about the Switch 2...

Anyone else have a kind of an icky feeling about the Switch 2? I don't think it's going to do well outside of initial launch

It will sell fine in japan but will flop in the west after the initial rush of scalpers picking them up

Nice to see you moved from "It will bomb like Wii U" to "It will do well at launch, but bomb later like Wii U" lmao

alright mario, I'll pre-order another copy of mario kart
will that cheer you up?

it's hilarious how you nintendo hating faggots are tip toeing around the switch 2 after being completely ass devastated by the switch. There was so much confidence back then about how it was the worst thing ever and would flop for sure lmao. what happened bros??

now it's just a bunch of pussies saying: it will sell well because of scalpers! it will sell well initially but then flop, you'll see! LMAO

The only game so far that interests me is Prime 4. I'll definitely be waiting a year or two and maybe pick it up when there's a special edition console for Splatoon 4 or something

Because there is absolutely nothing coming out for it after Mario Kart besides some cheap looking Donkey Kong game and Switch ports. What incentive is there to pick up a $500 tablet for this? It's not hard to understand why people think it will flop.

Cheap looking donkey kong game? It looks phenomenal and it's being made by their core mario team that made galaxy and odyssey. Are you fucking retarded lmao? Not to mention all your other points are wrong too, there are already more exclusives announced for the switch 2 than the ps5 had for the first 3 years of its life.

exclusives announced for the switch 2 than the ps5 had for the first 3 years of its life.

Is this true? Damn.

people comparing the switch 2 to the wii u

i for one would love another console with a ton of new games and ips, free online, and fucking miiverse instead of another port and rom machine. how is "being a wii u" a bad thing?

Wii u did amazingly at launch

No? It barely did 2m making it one of the weakest modern game launches to date.

Whats the origin of this sad mario face?

erm smash is a new game because they added new characters!! and made launching faster (visually)!!! AND SHIELD PARRIES BRO!!!! WORLD OF LIGHT!!!!!!

splatoon 2 is a new game because of dualies and a new campaign

mm2 is a new game because of multiplayer

you are right though, i forgot about mk8 somehow. thanks!

mm2 is a new game

Nintendo Derangement Syndrome

four anti switch 2 shill threads in the catalog

damn Anon Babblejeets and snoys are truly terrified

Keep seething and coping lmao

sorry, not gonna buy a "new" console for the 4 games worth playing on that list.
maybe if all of their system sellers werent ports of wii u games then id be interested in a switch.
and you know whats funny?
because i skipped the switch, now i get to play multiple games on your list, with improved framerates and more content, while you complain that theyre just switch 1 ports!
thanks for beta testing!

It was always going to get worse. We're coming up on 14 days before launch. They seething cope will build and build to hysterical levels. And the FUD screeching will continue long after launch.

"doesn't count!"

maybe if all of their system sellers werent ports of wii u games

you've parroted that endlessly but out of the top ten best selling switch titles only three are wii u ports

How much did you cry while typing this?

not gonna buy a console for games i have no desire to play, sorry. might be fun to someone though.

ac with no content

multiple modern pokemon games

only one ill give you is odyssey and MAYBE party. not sure what the difference is between super and jamboree.
man im having a great time with the switch 2 launch. watching people bitch about the same shit i bitched about with
the switch's release as a wii u owner is pure schadenfreude.

I don't give a fuck what you'll "give me" you braindead faggot, you don't get to pick and choose what counts as a new game or not might as well start listing your pronouns

Theres no way eric doesnt transition then suicide before the 5th of June

might as well start listing your pronouns

did you forget who the average switch owner is?

b-b-b-but!

He made you look like a retard lmao

Why would anyone chose to seethe for what will be a decade at this point.

Anyone else have a

No, it's just you, Eric

Preorders are supposedly below 750k globally. There's panic behind the scenes.

and then everyone clapped

750k ww is absolutely dire. I cannot imagine this selling as much as the Wii U at this point.

at this point this has to be some sort of viral campaign I refuse to believe some people just keep seething every day about stupid horseshit like that, like they wake up and immediately start shitposting about nintendo on Anon Babble and that's their entire mental horizon

never change, retard

You must be new

All they need to do is release Pokemon Gen 10 exclusive to Switch 2 and they'll survive another decade

PS5

900$ (800$ console + 100$ online) for 480p 35 fps and zero games

Xbox

850$ (730$ console + 120$ for online) for 360p 25 fps and zero games

Steam Deck

PC but with 50% performance for 90% price

Switch 2

470$ (450$ console + 20$ online) for 4k 60 fps for shitload of kino games

LOL! Pokemon is dead, no one cares about it after palworld.

at this point this has to be some sort of viral campaign I refuse to believe some people just keep seething every day about stupid horseshit like that, like they wake up and immediately start shitposting about nintendo on Anon Babble and that's their entire mental horizon

Yes that's exactly what they do. They go to bed seething about Nintendo. And when they wake up in the morning, they feverish search the internet for Nintendo news to shit post about. They're more obsessed with Nintendo than actual Nintendo fans are.

Imagine going through considering a fucking video game company to be your arch nemesis.

I know you’re just trolling (or maybe actually delusional), but who’s still playing Pokémon in 2025 AD? Their sales are fucking insane, but who’s playing those crappy games? Is it kids? Nostalgic adults? Both? Are they just Japan sales?

Is it kids? Nostalgic adults? Both?

You just answered your own question

We have had daily seethe threads about Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom for over 8 fucking years now. The success of the Switch broke the minds of these people, because they were so convinced it would flop and Nintendo would go third-party.

Because there is absolutely nothing coming out for it after Mario Kart

yeah but its nintendo, they have IPs, we know they make games. its not a gamble, there will be shit to play.

Yeah, but what confuses me is that I don’t see kids playing those games. All pokefags I know irl are 25+

Source on this number?

Can I apply for a patent for the particular shade of red nintendo uses and then file excessive DMCA claims on them every time they use it?

I'm sure they beat you to it

it's about 3m after the first month and they predict 6-8 on the first day

It's not looking good, they priced themselves too high for the kid toy market. Parents would just instead resort to cheap phones for their kids

maybe in your third world hellhole, where it's one or the other

Sure, but in reality scarlet and violet sold about 27 million

Lmao why are you so stupid

in what way?

why are you so butthurt?

Forced Soul Kong

No one but the most dead ender tendies are excited about this kusoge.

All trash excepting Metroid Dread.

it is absolutely hilarious that after all that shitposting the complete opposite happend and it's now sony games that are being released on switch

The Wii U was such an spectacular flop that that pic seemed inevitable tho. Underages don't know how big of a comeback the Switch was.

nah, even with the wii u being a monumental bomb nintendo always had their handheld line as a safety net, they'd never have become a sega like third party dev

And the switch is essentially a Wii U Pro

Nah. Nowhere close.

Switch 2 is basically just 16 gamecubes stapled together

If you say so anon
It literally is just a refined Wii U

Didn't Nintendo have a huge amount of cash reserves from the Wii + DS days to fall back on? It wasn't like Sega, where they were on the verge of bankruptcy

This console has 3 games at launch. Mario Kart World, Fast Fusion, and Survival Kids. The first two being racing games and latter apparently "the return of an iconic Japanese franchise" but it just looks like a shitty American mobile game.

I'm not counting the tutorial demo you need to pay for obviously.

I still want one but I don't see anybody talking about the crazy small launch lineup.

you think a Wii U could run Doom Eternal and Nier Automata?

No I want you to fuck my girlfriend daisy while I sit and watch you two in my cuck chair, YAT-HOOO!

See you when it hits 10 million sales, bud
and that won't even be lifetime sales

The builds on Switch?
yes, but a little worse, like I said, the switch is a pro Wii U

Forced soul meme

Go back to resetera

People are just begging for it to flop so that they can get it at a discounted price

do they really post that on trannyera? I knew it was ass devastated snoys

Switch 2 will sell like hotcakes in Japan but outside... not so much. I live in a Nordic country and the current price is 570-590 euros for no other reason than brazen greed.
Will be much cheaper for me to order from Germany instead (around 469 eur instead). Of course I'm not going to buy that one, had enough with Switch 1 already, it's very flimsy and sticks started to have issues after few months.

i ain't paying 80 dollars for some mario shit, they crazy

Yeah Bergsala is charging scalping prices for this shit, I have atleast found some retailers in Sweden that are charging a ton less for new switch 2 games than the big guys.

im buying it but i hope it flops so they feel inclined to actually innovate in their games as opposed to porting switch 1 games and making iterative changes.

And yet you paid $90 (2025 dollars) for GameCube games

My dollars were worth more back then.

Yes that's why the sticker said $50 you retard

le switch ports!

Here we go

Yeah so it costs more now because my wages sure as shit have not increased by 50% nor are the games 50% better. Nigger.

Well there's only one game worth playing on it, MKW.
oh and I guess that weird new Fromsoft game thats multi only... maybe?

I think I'm just too old for nintendo honestly. Only game I'd be interested in would be a new smash, otherwise idc

How the fuck have your wages not increased 50% over the past twenty years
Seriously what do you do for work? TWENTY YEARS and you haven't figured out how to get bumped fifty percent?

Of course I'm not going to buy that one, had enough with Switch 1 already, it's very flimsy and sticks started to have issues after few months.

Switch 2 litterally was built to fix all these issues.

my wages sure as shit have not increased by 50%

Take that issue to your central bank, all products have increased in price, that's litterally the definition of inflation you dumb nigger.

We'll see if the fixes actually work

The banks are horrible and all that but if you haven't gotten inflation matching raises over the course of decades you're an actually retarded gorilla nigger. Even minimum wage increased more

I think I'm just too old for nintendo honestly.

You must be entering your teenage years.

Why are kids these days so worried about sales? Is it true that kids these days just play games out of popularity and not quality? Is that why Twitch is so popular?

Can I port all the stuff from my switch lite to the switch 2?

yes

Yeah, however you can't transfer the data, it just redownloads all the games as far as I'm aware

saves are tied to your account

Alright I'll wait for a year for the price to drop then, since it's the only way to play splatoon, MHGU, etc online

The only thing that's going to drop the price is inflation lol

sure, but I'm just saying the games won't physically transfer over, just the licences
Though I'm pretty sure you can set up the ability to go back and forth freely with them
I wish you luck, but I don't think that will happen until 2-3 years

Who fucking cares if it does well
You should be more concerned with whether or not Nintendo delivers good games/products/experience/convenience to the consumer

I'll wait for a year for the price to drop the

lol

I mean, I don't think that's a concern
They're always bound to release some things you'll like

saves are tied to your account

only if you pay for online

Who fucking cares if it does well

Why would the price not drop after a year? Are there price charts for the switch original to see when it started to drop?

If it does well it gets more games
It's that fucking simple

Dude the Switch NEVER dropped in price
Go to literally any store

This like life of a black tiger bad

x.com/Nintendo/status/1914982671522083155
Literally 2.2 million preorders in Japan alone.

Inflation was the price drop, the Switch at launch would be $225 in modern dollars

PRE ORDERS
ARE
NOT
SALES
YOU DUMB FUCK

This isn't a Cybertruck the system is going to sell out at launch, you're retarded if you aren't expecting that

no one said they were, don't try to move the goalposts retard.

Pre-orders are paid in full anon

controversial marketing thread from nintendrajeet #879836932467

fucking kill yourself

Ifif I rregister my inrterest in something that sdoes not mean that I bought it you stuoid fucks. How hard is this to udnerstnad?

Because there literally weren't enough to go around. Every single one they put up for pre order was sold

He's crashing out.

Stop cry-typing you seething doorknob.

That's not what preorder are here, they're bought in full

BLOODY BASTARD SYSTEM IS BOMB YOU MUST NOT BUY SYSTEM BASTARD

It's cause of the games. People won't be buying the games

You're right, Mario Kart World will sell under 50,000 copies

I think it's the opposite. It will do bad at launch but it will eventually recover.
If it does well at launch that means it will be a success.

Anon, the last Pokemon sold nearly 27 million
MK8 deluxe sold nearly 65m

A ten dollar difference is enough to make every one of those customers take their difference elsewhere

If you say so

So by your logic since MKW is only 50 bucks with the bundle the game is gonna sell even more than MK8 Deluxe?

It would if it wasn't a limited time bundle

fake sales

We have entered the bargaining phase.

Ok it might do well at launch but surely two weeks later sales will fall off a cliff, trust the plan bro!

What a fun ride.

Now type this again without tears in your eyes

I love it when people say shit like "a desperate Nintendo is a good Nintendo* as if the Wii U didn't get abandoned after only 3 years.

Not to mention it was their absolute worst period of software output ever. There are still some good games but there's no better summary of the Wii U era than their big launch title being New Mario Wii HD

Having to support 3DS still and increased complexity of HD development really blindsided them. But hey that got us the Switch.

Wii U had the greatest launch of its gen, homie. Then it fell off like a rock.

You forgot Mario Kart. I enjoyed the Wii U, but seeing copy paste games to the Switch was brutal. The only game that was decent in that regard was BotW because it ran like balls on the Wii U.

it will sell well because of scalpers! it will sell well initially but then flop, you'll see!

Don't tendies say this every day for the last 20 years about Playstation?

Mario Kart 8 on Switch was far, far superior to the Wii U.

Does anyone feel like OP is just desperately coping making these threads in the lead weeks to the lead up of the Switch 2 launch? Why does he let Nintendo live in his head like this?

Wii U's competition sucked. Just makes it failure even more hilarious. Terrible competitors and yet you're the only one who gets discontinued. Nintendo fucked up so hard with that console. It felt like a fisher price toy and it was.

eric
seek mental help

obviously, everyone predicted the board would be unreadable once switch 2 got announced

it doesn't help that sony are currently in the news with everyone laughing at them again with the marathon trainwreck, gotta do damage control and divert attention from it

They got so desperate they abandoned the WiiU and developed a console worth a shit. Now they're so confident they think they can charge $10 for the instruction manual.

2.2 million preorders AT A SINGLE RETAILER in japan alone

It costs 10 bucks? From the way people are talking about it one would think they're trying to charge full price for it lmao.

desperate nintendo is a good Nintendo

Meanwhile gives us slops like NSMBU and animal crossing amiibo party

Actually, that's a mistranslation. It's 22k.

To be honest it's so lame they should be paying us to play it

Do you have a single source to back that up?

I have all the sources. You have none.

Did they come to you in a dream? Or a vision?

I hope it doesn't do well. This deserves to flop since Nintendo wants to charge $80 for vidya. Hell any company who charges $80 for vidya deserves to crash and burn.

Yeah, I'd rather pay $80 or even more for mario kart than even $5 for welcome tour. I genuinely don't think I'd ever play it even IF it was a free pack in. Genuinely the biggest blunder from the entire presentation.

Pick 1

Why was $50 okay in 2002

i hope it bombs because then Nintendie will go back to being less evil like during the Wii U

Hell any company who charges $80 for vidya deserves to crash and burn.

So all AAA companies? I'd be perfectly fine with that

He's been like this for the past eight years. He refuses to take the L and let it go.

Sad to think that Nintendo is the only console manufacturer that isn't a gigacorpo doing business through multiple other industries. Yeah, they dipped their toes into movies, but even that is based on their video game IP. Sega vs. Nintendo was the last time competition in vidya was interesting since both companies were 100% video game-oriented.

Who cares? Wii-U sold like shit and had great games

Wrong.
The symbol next to the 220 is a ten-thousands counter
So there are 220 ten-thousand preorders
add the four 0s of the 10,000 to the end of the 220 and you get 2,200,000

Just wait till they have three Switch tier successes in a row, they'll have so much capital and cultural dominance they'll be forced to become a cyberpunk megacorp.

Now they're so confident they think they can charge $10 for the instruction manual

Didn't Nintendo sell Wii Sports again but with wii u controls for like $40?

I was a kid when Dreamcast launched. Why DID it fail? I remember it seeming like the coolest shit, Crazy Taxi, Sonic, Soul Caliber. My cousin had one and it was de facto the hot item at the time. I remember it being front and center at every tech store I visited too. Qrd?

Exactly. It's not 2.2 millions, it's 2.2 ten thousands, or 22k. Thanks for proving my point.

It failed because of the Saturn and 32X. Sega America's petty hateful attitude towards Sega Japan led to internal competition and consumers were just done with the whole company because of how retarded it all was

brother you have brain damage

dreamcast was doing significantly better than the saturn before it got discontinued, but sega had accrued pretty large debts and had to sell off large chunks of the company to stay afloat

Thanks. Getting destroyed by debt sounds pretty cut and dry. Oh well. I still remember it as "that super cool console my cousin had" from childhood lmao. Everything about it oozed style at the time.

I know you are, but what am I?

Why DID it fail?

Steamrolled by Playstation 2 and its DVD-Video support. The console itself was fine even if it did come at the end of a long series of struggles but it just couldn't stack up against Sony's format domination at the time. Neither Sega nor Nintendo wanted to pay Sony for a license to support CD playback and then DVD standard and they both paid for it in the end.

I don't think you'd get many people who wouldn't argue that it was Sega's best system, just too little too late. It goes to show why Nintendo never, ever does M&A stuff and just sits on their massive piles of indexed cash, they could just stop making vidya for a decade and keep paying everyone without any problems, Sega never tried to figure out that position

I don't care about online play, which is the only thing that online subscription should support
You shouldn't HAVE to pay to keep your shit backed up
You shouldn't HAVE to pay a monthly to play old games, when the virtual console worked just fine
If they separated it so that data backups were standard, and I can buy the handful of retro games I want, and play anytime, anywhere, regardless of internet access, I'll get it
Otherwise, nope

I love when people protest Nintendo's policies as if they're a state government lol

when the virtual console worked just fine

People didn't buy VC games a lot and literally asked for a Netflix style subscription service. Nintendo simply delivered what was asked of them.

There is no decimal point, it's 220, not 22.0

When Nintendo used to be much more consumer friendly, and the industry itself wasn't insufferable, I didn't feel the need to be done with gaming
As far as I'm concerned, Nintendo answers to us, not share holders
I'm not obligated to buy shit. So either everyone else can get screwed over and I'll enjoy my retro gaming, or they get their heads out of their asses, and I'll stay in the modern gaming scene

honestly the worst thing with this shitposter is how unfunny he is

if he was creative and entertaining at least it'd be one thing, but he's just this pathetic seething retard that talks total horseshit to just fill up the catalog with garbage

I am done with Nintendo. PC is just so much better because you can actually emulate every old Nintendo game ever made with one system and it's usually an improvement in graphics and performance.
Switch 2 will sell well because of dudebro casuals. I don't know or care if it sells better than the other two memecrates.

literally asked for a Netflix style subscription service

Well, that's a hindsight issue I hope some may realize years from now

I don't get why people kvetch about Nintendo's online retro game thing when everyone agrees it's a bad way to play those games anyway
The fucking border won't go away and fan emulation is way better

PC is just so much better

No exclusives though (that aren't really old)

PC is le good because it can play Nintendo games

Case in point.

False

Ps5 is stronger than pc

PC is le good because it can play ALL Nintendo games for free in one system with better graphics and performance + millions of other great games that Nin10dies will never see.

Switch 2 will sell a quadrillion copies. If garbage games and full price re-releases can't stop nintendo, nothing can.

PS5 has no games.

So we agree that PC's own library isn't notable and PC is hard-carried by old Nintendo games. Nice.

Exclusives

NTA, but shouldn't access to software be the driving force behind a purchase? I buy a Playstation every gen not because I love Sony, but because it consistently offers opportunity to play the broadest variety of vidya from various developers. PC does too, I imagine, but with inconsistent results due to the 5 billion set ups devs have to consider leading to occasionally shit launches. What always makes Nintendo secondary to me is that it's just "the thing you buy for Nintendo games." Beyond that point, too many people fetishize their chosen brand simply because of its brand. Nintendo fans being the worst.

I can play Mario Sunshine on my PC without having to pay $80 in a limited time frame.

everyone agrees it's a bad way to play those games anyway

No, it's a convenient way to play them on the go, easy access, intuitive UI, multiple saves states, the rewind feature and especially online play make it stand out. I've never had this much fun playing retro games before and the switching is seamless.

Thinking casuals are going to drop $500 + tip just to play Mario Kart is retarded. No new 3D Mario in 8 years and dropping a DK game instead is retarded. Two kart racers announced at the same time is retarded. Nintendo has gone full retard.

So can my phone, or my old Gamecube.

There are 0 good PC games

Being able to play nintendo games is an unintentional PC bonus that completely invalidates the existence of the switch
It's that simple

Now keep seething about games that you can't play like E33 and nuDoom

Needs 20 old consoles to play different games I can play on one PC.

E33 and nuDoom

Nice, I'll get them on switch 2

NTA, but shouldn't access to software be the driving force behind a purchase?

Yep, that's working very well for Xbox, I hear.

not discounts and 70-80$ prices, instant flop

my modern smartphone is "20 old consoles"

PCfags really aren't beating the turdworlder ESL allegations.

PC has all Souls games, including the playstation exclusive ones. Nintendo just has one.

Truth is we won't know how Switch 2 performs until it's here. Maybe people will reject it for why you say. Maybe they'll buy it in droves because "Switch" itself is now a very culturally relevant brand name, thus Nintendo just slapping a 2 on it. I'm going to wait until it's in peoples' actual hands and not marketers so that I can laugh at all the shitty ports again. My expectation is that Cyberpunk collapses and blows up inside the console. The new DK game looks cool. There will be at least one anon who fervently defends wheelchair soccer across Anon Babble for weeks.

Do not redeem the ESL, you stinky brown PAJEET!

PC has discounts too

Mario Kart and DK in the first two months

It'll be fine

So does PSN. I don't use my Switch a lot but it seems like they charge premium prices for games that are 20 bucks everywhere else. I don't understand why, but I guess somebody's willing to pay it.

E33

nuDoom

Ninendo games

The same variety you can get on an Xbox w/ the retroarch UWP

Nintendo

Beta male basedboys

Playstation

Niggers

XBox

Brown pajeets

PC

White aryan GIGACHADS

ps4pro launch price: $400

ps5 cheapest version launch price: $400

ps5pro launch price: $700

ps6 launch price:

Now keep seething about games that you can't play like E33 and nuDoom

Why does the schizo behind these threads always repeat this lie about Anon Babble nintendo posters all the time? I have never seen nintendo posters come into threads about these games to shit them up, they get enough shitposting on their own without 'tendies'.

Kutaragi was truly ahead of his time

Why are pcsissies so insecure about their small dick?

Ps5 has ALL games

Now keep seething about games that you can't play like E33 and nuDoom

Literally no one has seethe about this except the imaginary people in your head. Everyone knows these games will eventually get ported to the switch 2 lol

You sound like a snoytranny.

''icky'' Lol

So Ps5 has BBC that makes the rest SEETHE with jealously?

You are false. Everything you say and do is false.

It's not gonna do well because it has no games.

Nope, they are dicklets

haven't you noticed? in every single thread about games not on switch this genetic debris pretends that everytime a criticism is made about these games it comes from nintendo fans

he of course has no interest in these games as he doesn't play vidya but he always uses third party titles to make nintendo fans look bad, the guy is a serious basket case

WHY ARE THEY DOING THE STUPID GAME KEY SHIT PUT YOUR GAMES ON THE CART

You are false. Ps5 wins. You lost.

Funny thing is E33 and Doom Dark Ages will no doubt be ported to Switch 2.

Wins what? The "console with no games" award?

I only buy digital. I'm not cluttering my house up with worthless plastic junk.

yeah and then he'll pretend that one game not on switch 2 is the best ever and that tendies are mad about it

I remember him using persona 5 for years and it magically stopped once a switch port was announced

I wanna do a full switch 2 collection because I have never had a full collection of anything

I mean, both PS5 and Xbox series consoles have sold without games for the last 5 years, most people now buy stuff just because is le new thing.

It depends on the normalfag casuals and for them it'll just boil down to a matter of price, but it deserves to fail and fail hard. It's a scummy as fuck system made by a corpo now full of suits who had nothing to do with the nintendo people grew up with. Its only two games look like they could've come out on the wii u with one just being a worse rehash and the other just looking genuinely awful in every way.

Ps5 has ALL games. Shitch has none

Sony's been winning that award since the PS3.

Looks like more games than the PS5, anon. Some better games, too. Donkey Kong looks like it'll be even better than Odyssey, and MKW looks like it taps into the ancient urge to just explore the game for hours on end I had as a child, making no progress or even finding anything to justify the time spent doing so. Seriously, just try them sometime. You might find you'll like these games more than you think, emulate if you have to. Just play games.

You forgot this gem:
youtube.com/watch?v=Cy2aRxIzOko

"It's just some 99 cent shovelware, right?"

Wrong, it's over $20
store.playstation.com/en-us/product/EP8062-PPSA26427_00-0241824007704745

Considering the decline in gaming quality over the years (not talking about visual fidelity, nor do I give a fuck about it anymore), Nintendo hasn't shown me anything worth justifying enabling all the weasely shit they're doing

False. ZERO games, only ports and shovelware. Ps5 has all games. Shitch and shitch poo have none.

Nintendo is the most evil and greedy company in history, and it's not even close

can't wait to see arsetroonbot on the switch 2 after sony gets desperate
then you'll truly have 0 games

You have already chosen your pitiful end

It's been an absolute pleasure adding all those games to the category. I still need to add Fruit Collector and some other AI slops like Doctor Simulator.

This is all snoys have to latch on to after dumping $700 on a piece of shit system that performs worse than the Xbox

This is embarrassing.

Yeah, people will spend even more money on the other consoles after the price raise

which badly translated 90's jrpg did you snag that quote from?

You really are Anon Babble's own patrick tomlinson

Better than anything shitendo has ever put out, and I'm not joking

Hey @mods, can you verify this?

I fucking WISH Sony made games. I think competition is healthy, and for the last five years, there's basically been just been Nintendo running laps while two retards have been stumbling around with no aim. I enjoy playing video games, I like when companies have to prove to the consumer why they should buy this product rather than their rivals.

Sure, the indie scene has been doing well, Nintendo is getting understandably cocky, but when a game worth buying comes to Xbox or PlayStation, it's the exception and not the rule, ignoring the possibility that most of those exceptions get ported anyway. You know what I want? A reality where Nintendo and Sony are as great as their diehard cultists believe they are, Xbox cultists circa the 360 era, too.

is there any reason to buy a Nintendo console if you’re not hosting game parties?

It'll probably do fine as long as Nintendo has Pokemon and Mario Kart.

Madden NFL '97

Who even plays Mario Kart though? Just parents with their kids?

This false-flagging campaign is so tiresome.

If nintendo doesn't lower the game prices it's going to bomb 100% sure, you can't play pretend for people to go from paying 60€ to fucking 90€ on the games for their kids.
Bro, most of the market is parents buying it for their kids, they can't afford to buy two or three 90€ games at once because you need a copy for every kid.

It's Wii-U 2 vibe.

I pre-ordered but ended up cancelling because other than mario kart, no nintendo games interest me.
I have no interest in platform games and actively HATE Puzzles, so it felt dumb to spend money on it.
I crave immersion and games that feel like living worlds, and nintendo games have neither. NOt even zelda.

because you need a copy for every kid

Where the fuck did you pull that from? The new gameshare feature means that you don't have to buy multiple copies for any device if you have a family account.

How many times are you going to make a variation on this post?

Your meltdown isn't until a few days later, relax.

it unironically has a large community of competitive autists

and actively HATE Puzzles

'course you do, brainlet

Why do you think snoys love NuGOW?

We're in this puzzle room, Father. We need to find a way out. By the way, try hitting that button with the Blades of Cuckoldry three times. That'll open the door.

crave immersion and games that feel like living worlds

So you only like Nintendo games

a kind of an icky feeling

fuck nintendo 9 pic

the schizo truly will seethe for another 8 years lmao

Yeah bro, people will spend more money on "more-expensive-after-years-in-the-market" systems instead of Switch 2. Im sure parents will think its the best solution for the gaming needs of little Timmy, not the tablet machine with Mario and Fortnite, sure bro

For some reason I feel a pull to buy it. Say something mean to me so I won't

I pre-ordered but ended up cancelling

I crave immersion

must be hard being that retarded.

it is the first time i'm posting about this
eat a dick schizonigger
Puzzles are BORING AS FUCK and kill immersion. I don't wanna feel like I'm playing a game.
this
I guess the whole Mario universe can feel immersive in a way, but other than that, every nintendo game, from zelda to metroid, feels extremely shallow to me.
The stories are really simple and only act as vehicles to the gameplay, which is fine and way better than shit like God of Soi and snoy exlusives, but just not my thing.

You're insecure, so you think you need someone else to make your decisions and form an opinion for you. Try to form your own original thoughts you fucking failure.

Kek
No way. Is there even a ranked mode?

the particular price in a country of 4 million Afghans is going to affect its global stats significantly

I’m sorry but that’s just not true.

no I have an 'ICK
for 'ECK

Im sure parents will think its the best solution for the gaming needs

reminder that good parents will buy whatever system their kids ask, so if they say "I want a Switch TWO" their parents will go and buy a Switch 2. only bad parents will refuse to buy their kids what they want.

I guess the whole Mario universe can feel immersive in a way, but other than that, every nintendo game, from zelda to metroid, feels extremely shallow to me

Which means you hate immersive games.

If you want it, just do it. Why should we change your mind?

there's a point system and of course time trial

So what massive negative news will Sony announce tomorrow judging the glowniggers multi thread breakdown today?

I will main this brat using "DamnBrat" as my name btw.

Has to be the price increase. Rumors are floating about but there's no thing concrete yet.

seeing the macaco this hysterical is so funny
wonder what insider news is he sperging out over this time, last time he threw a tantrum out of seemingly nowhere 6 hours later news dropped of kikes pulling a bugman and literally threatening muttrica over trump vaguely implying palestine was a state, and 2 hours after that leftoids went full "free palestine" which caused glowies to start calling people fag/troon because they were now valid targets again

tomorrow is an absolute state of play

oh so it's that

isn't it just damage control for the marathon clusterfuck? they don't have an astroturf to make people forget about concord this time

Based schizo

It's 100% a price increase, JP twitter has been speculating about yet another price hike for summer vacation and were already memeing the cost of the console is already comparable to a regular car, not a small car, a full fucking car.
Yet that is so expected we may actually see a wombo combo of snoy bad news given this damage control.

their GOTY "Marathon" will get canned for real tomorrow.

it's not schizo, it's basic pattern recognition
he also threw a cataclysmic tantrum 12 hours before FFR got announced for PC, and another one for stellar blade
he doesn't get all insider news however, given how smug he was on astro turf's release week only to get cucked by a touhou rhythm game port and mald literally all week at the time

What's the point if you're still going to need the game key card? It's a shitty inbetween for digital and buying it at the store because being on a shelf may make a normie buy it.

In europe, the rich part, there have already been 8 waves of pre-orders and they're coming in daily now with each wave being in stock longer.
The first wave was sold out in 30 minutes or so, the last one for 10 hours.
I really hope scalpers are getting fucked

Ok, little Timmy, but the real world doesnt work like that, so even if you think your daddy is getting more money, his real purchaisng power decreased, and the price of videogames reflect that. But again, even if you want a PS5, once the market price goes up as it was already announced, your daddy will surely think Switch 2 is a better option

your daddy will surely think Switch 2 is a better option

and he'll see his kid throwing the console at the wall because it wasn't the one he wanted, then his wife will say he's a fucking retarded for not buying the one the kid wanted, and the father will just cry watching the mother, the kid and his money going away forever until he decides to commit sudoku or shoot random people.
it's not about buying one or the other nor console war, it's about doing the correct thing so you make your kid grow up being happy, but that's something americans will never really understand since they're worst than literal 3rd worlders when the subject is childcaring.

if the kid wants a literal paperweight with no games like the PiS5 then you are better off divorcing the whore and the kid because the marriage was a mistake in the first place

Agreed

this post is legitimately one of the saddest things I've ever read in this shithole, imagine making up this kind of scenario in your head because you're butthurt about videogame brands

imagine making up this kind of scenario in your head

Knowing the average snoy being a divorced soijack dad, and how nigger genes seemingly prefer modern snoy, it's possible this is just projecting.

Funniest part was how hard he claimed it would never release on a Nintendo platform.

He will kill people irl over the console war.

didn't he do that for elden ring and ff7 remake too

I'm starting to suspect he's a masochist and actually enjoys getting btfo constantly

fatherless snoy writes an unrealistic scenario

lol

Not everyone is american, anon. Sorry you were born in a shithole

Why does karma always give them such a raw deal?

Desperate Nintendo gave us the switch and core audience games like BOTW, Odyssey, Forgotten Land, Mario RPGs, Xenoshit, Fire Emblem, Smash Bros, etc. Desperate Nintendo made them get off their asses because they launched the Wii U with NOTHING and just expected the wiitard casuals who moved onto smartphones to buy the console with all of the wii branded game garbage serving as most of the titles at launch with a rehased NSMB Wii.

the switch was already on the pipeline before the wii u died anon
also half the games you are talking about were either intended for the wii u or literal ports like botw

go to this guy's channel

look for this video

nowhere to be seen

Holy kek, at least own the fact that you got it wrong

I love that Nintendo fans just assume Nintendo's properties are theirs. BOTW online is going to encourage piracy and confusion, aint nobody dumping fucking wii u games to play it. You can't just remake games for free and expect nothing to happen, Nintendo fans are such mouth breathing retards.

switch 2 is horrible thoughbeit

Same shit happen with all the youtube grifters spreading misinformation on Switch 2 they deleted their vids or made one contradicting said videos and then as soon as another rumor pops up they do it again.

Do you not think Nintendo knew they had a pile of shit on their hand a few years into the Wii U consoles life and had to restructure?

His current tactic is to do falseflagging with E33 threads

Who is making all of the E33 threads?

which makes no sense when the devs already said they are porting it to the switch 2

Imagine his seething when they port it to Switch 2, the devs have already said they are interested so its a question of time.

also half the games you are talking about were either intended for the wii u or literal ports like botw

It's literally only Botw. Everything else was made with the switch in mind.

Nah, he'll just pretend nothing happened and go back to laughing how tendies won't get GTA6

Weird, I remember snoys crying the switch had no games aside from wii u ports for m9st of it's lifespan.
It's almost like you are pulling a history revisionism or something.

seems like peak cope when both the gamecube and og wii were good generations for nintendo enjoyers, both first and third party wise
whats stupid is this is not even a nintendo problem, its a snoy and xbox giving no competiti9n problem

Linus_tech_tips_thumbnail.jpg

I have a bad feeling about this...

he did that with resident evil 4 remake, with dragon's dogma 2, with metaphor, with baldur's gate 3, with elden ring etc

incredibly jewish behavior, trying to get fans of certain games riled up against nintendo by lying through his teeth

remember when you faggots thought the switch would fail? the amount of copium of thinking this is anything like wii-wiii u is insane, that shit was doomed from the name alone

The funniest part for me is how they keep going back and forth on "Nintendo fans only care about baby games" to "Nintendo fans are jealous of our *mature* (dark and edgy) games"
They can't even keep a single narrative
They really need to make up theie your own minds already

the usual suspects are posting cp again

it literally is a new game, Smash 4 and Ulimate are nothing alike

snoys crying

I wonder why you heard that from the people who had mostly ps2 and 3 ports.

It's kind of sad, they've been doing this for years and still don't understand that no one falls for it.

don't bother, according to this retard's "logic" smash 4 isn't even a new game since it's a sequel to brawl

I hope it pulls a ps2 and sells like crack because it would be so funny to see you fags seething.

I can't even tell if he's a bad troll or he's actually arguing with the imaginary people in his head. It's hard to tell at this point.

I can't even tell if he's a bad troll

he is a terrible troll

he endlessly repeats the same kind of braindead bait and has zero subtlety in his posting so everyone can immediately recognize him and know what he's doing, he's just really stupid which is the worst thing you can be when you're a troll

of course he doesn't care since he has the jannies in his pocket and they allow him to shit up the board every day

It will. $450 for an upgrade to the thing that kept people's little shit kids out of their hair for the last 8 years is a no brainer. People can bitch and complain about food prices or whatever's hot on reddit but the same ones will be first in line for a preorder.

I feel like because the console is so goddamn expensive a lot of hackers will do their best to jailbreak it/make illegally acquired games playable as quickly as possible.
Hopefully at least.
Either that or a Switch 2 emulator will pop up in 2 months.

oh no Nintendo should have consulted you I guess, it's so fucking over

even with the wii u being a monumental bomb nintendo always had their handheld line as a safety net

This was also around the time the 3DS, while successful, was known to have been a struggle at first, enough so they dropped the price heavily 6 months after launch and publicly apologised. Early 2010s was a rocky era for Nintendo even in their strongest sectors. The Switch really was an absolute and extreme turn around.

Not defending shitposting btw, but context of the era is relevant.

I feel like because the console is so goddamn expensive

I feel like I am taking crazy pills, how the hell is 450 bucks considered "expensive"? Here in the nordics they are charging the equivalent of 650 bucks for it, but also PS5 and Xbox SX are like 750, and PS5 Pro is 1200 bucks if you want one with a disc drive.

Yeah I mean they always think the next Nintendo system is gonna bomb, that's not gonna change, ever. The fact that they have so little confidence on this one failing is very telling.

look at all those failures. lol no wonder your kids don't even talk with you.

I remember one schizo who is always seething about Nintendo in the Famitsu threads let it slip one of his buzzwords he uses against Elden Ring and some other anon immediately recognized it
I just what the buzzword was but yeah os pretty much falseflagging

Anon are you from 2018

For the same reason now you hear them say "the switch literally only has shovelware" when the PiS5 exclusive catalog looks like this: youtube.com/watch?v=LUc9p-2q9R0

I think you're even more wrong than with the Switch, this one will probably sell more.

Switch launched at $300. The 3DS, which was so expensive at the time that they dropped the price heavily six months after release, STARTED at $250. There was a point where you could get a 2DS with Mario Kart included for as little as $80 RRP.

Relative to all other Nintendo handhelds historically the Switch 2 is higher priced by a decent margin. Obviously it's a partially a matter of the economic situation and but it's not an absurd statement either.

It's crazy to think the Switch obliterated the PS4 in sales.

I don't think it'll sell more than switch but yeah it's going to be a huge success, nintendo IPs have reached a level of popularity that ensures people will buy a new system to play them

It's quite literally the PS2 to the switch 1 just like how the original wii was the PS2 to the gamecube.
And just like the wii it will likely outsell it's PS1 by a large margin in the long run.
It's surprising to see patternfags saying how the switch 2 will flop like the wii u fail to realize part of the problem with the wii u was how it presented itself as the PS3 to the wii's PS2 position, carrying the exact same problems the PS3 had at launch.

If more expensive games didn't stop it from selling like crazy then nothing will. Even the normies at my office are all excited and preordered it, they don't even know what they want to play on it, it achieved the status of normalfag gadget that you have to own like the PS5 I guess.

It won’t sell like the wii u at its worst but it will sell like the 3ds at its worst

Relative to all other Nintendo handhelds

It's a home console that can also be portable anon, it's basically a PS4 processor with a PS5 pro GPU as shown by comparisons of the switch 2 easily raping the series S performance wise and even some PiS5 games like FF looking better on it.
The comparison is not a 3DS, it's the PiS5 pro itself.

Price matters to the target audience and the target audience of the Switch 2 is primarily that of their previous handhelds. What's inside doesn't matter to the layman.

and the target audience of the Switch 2 is primarily that of their previous handhelds

you mean the switch 1 crowd that already were happy dropping big bucks for the oled plus a pro controller?

Truth is it's impossible to predict how it will do for now. But yeah that's a good starting point, it's already doing too well to be a Wii U like failure. Maybe something like the 3DS is next (also a sequel console that's just a DS but more powerful when the novelty was over).

Anon the ARM cpu the switch 2 is using runs laps around the PS4 and Xbox one X CPUs. The GPU is stuffed to the brim with nvidia made features and hardware optimizations which makes it push above its own weight limit. It's nowhere near PS5 level, not with the possible bandwidth limits.

It's nowhere near PS5 level

look at the graphic comparisons anon, most games shown look at least on par with the PiS5, some look better

It's fucked up that there's a new console in less than a month and no one except tendies care. Sure.

I just don't know why they haven't been making games.

Focus on Switch

Yeah, but still. The fuck? Where's something like Animal Crossing? That carried millions and millions of people through muh Covid-19 pandemic

I just don't know why they haven't been making games.

Just the launch lineup for the switch 2 alone is more exclusives than the PiS5 has had in it's lifetime.
At this point even after all the ports the vita has more exclusives than the PiS5, that's just fucking sad to see.

It's fucked up that there's a new console in less than a month and no one except tendies care. Sure.

This is not true at all though, everyone is freaking out about it, specially the anti Nintendo crowd.

The Wii U was such an spectacular flop that that pic seemed inevitable tho.

Oh not at all. If you look at their profits during that era it was comparatively a small blip of a loss so ports were never going to happen.
Basically, that image only exists because there was literally nothing releasing on ps4 at the time.

It's not, that's just the switch 2 SDK having support for a bunch of features as well as good developers knowing where to remove detail that doesn't change the overall look. That latter part is especially a trick too many devs today have forgotten about.

I bought the switch 1 on launch, but I sold it after a few weeks, because most of the games weren't that interesting and I mostly played on playstation.
I still love my playstation but i regretted selling the switch, because it got some really great games and a lot of indie game support. I often thought about buying a switch again, but I was also hoping for a switch pro, that never came out.

I'm not going to sell the switch 2 so easily again.

The switch 2 is so good it forces devs to actually optimize.

Is this supposed to be a bad thing?

I just don't know why they haven't been making games.

meanwhile there's five switch 2 exclusives and two switch 1 games coming later this year

Let me guess....they don't count?

Did I imply that's a bad thing you nigger? The switch 2 has plenty of hardware features that the other two platforms don't have which allows for better optimization without sacrificing graphics too much. The question is will devs make use of it? Hopefully gamefreak and retro studios will improve their games visuals before release.

Switch is one of the most popular, best-selling and most respected consoles of all time thanks to the hybrid handheld mode. That's a fact. They nailed it.
The follow-up will be in people's hands in like 2 weeks due to early sales. No one cares.

They count. They just suck. For the hardcore fans and for normalfags both.

isn't that kind of the point, that even if in terms of pure power it's nowhere near close it manages to output visuals that are close enough to ps5 due to diminishing returns and optimization plus modern features being more important now than pure teraflops

For the hardcore fans and for normalfags both.

Oh they're getting the games they want. Casuals and faggots such as yourself on the other hand

They count. They just suck. For the hardcore fans and for normalfags both.

which would count in your eyes then?

Are you being intentionally obtuse or is this trolling now?

It isn't an absurd statement to say that the Switch 2 is relatively expensive compared to the equivalent in their historical releases. You having to not only mention the OLED (not equivalent, as it's an alternative post-launch version) and add in a pro controller misses the point. Even if it did, why would you add the pro controller anyway, the same would be the case for the Switch 2.

I don't know why you can't just say "yes, the Switch 2 actually is more expensive than their previous handhelds" since it's a clearly demonstrable fact.

all i see is you moving the post because you keep losing the argument and pretending people bought the 3ds because they could play mario galaxy and botw on it

Maybe not close to PS5 but it's definitely possible it can punch above its own weight better than either the switch 1 or the 8th gen consoles partially due to the better CPU and also additional features nvidia keeps stuffing into their GPUs within both the mobile and desktop hardware space.

moving the posts

Dude, you brought up the Switch OLED (WITH PRO CONTROLLER) as a counter point when all I brought up was hardware RRPs. The only goal post moving here was done by you. You asked why people would consider it expensive and I compared its RRP to other RRPs of Nintendo handhelds in the last decade or two.

Even if you DO consider the Switch OLED with Pro Controller, that's STILL less than the cost of a launch Switch 2 with no peripherals.

most snoys stopped counting time after Bloodborne release.

It's almost like the switch 2 is exponentially stronger or something.
You also can use your switch 1 controllers and joycons with it, making the extra expenses of peripherals not a thing.

Oh they're getting the games they want

I hope so. I just want better games.

Who cares? Mario, Zelda, Pokemon Animal Crossing for 4? I could rattle off another 10, but this is just lame and don't get normalfags excited. And probably IPs that are too "hardcore".

That said: I really hope people give Metroid a chance this time. And I hope it's good, no Nintendo bonus needed

There is a pokeman game already announced anon.
The fuck are you shitting yourself over nigger.

Nintendo will make sure it continues to sell even after launch by holding sales hostage to those who expressed interest in buying from them directly. Artificial scarcity meets articificial demand.

No there isn't. And if there was I forgot about it because no one gave enough of a shit about it. Which is insane, because it's Pokemon.

The fuck are you shitting yourself over nigger.

Honestly? I just don't want another Wii U generation. It was terrible, but at the same time awesome. I got cool shit like Monster Hunter, Bayonetta and Fatal Frame, but still everytime when you tried to talk to Anon Babble about it, a nightmare. It just made the board sicker.

This fag unironically thinks people don't care about ZA

Fake and gay
I preordered the same day preorders were opened on the website and I am still on the list of people who need to order it but didn't get a spot

It's too expensive and not different enough from the switch 1.
Pre-orders sold out because it's the new nintendo thingy and there are enough rich assholes who want to be the first one to have it. Everyone else will wait for a price drop or just stick with the switch 1.

from "nobody want it confirmed 450K sales" to "it's sold out on purpose"

yikes.

it's a Legends title and not a real game

No wonder no one gave a shit and couldn't remember it lol

also: fuck off back to Anon Babble before I come over there and ask real Pokefags what they think about your precious ZA, poser

it will be fine when games start coming out for it
right now nintendo is focused on launch + mario kart, we should get a better idea of what games are coming at e3

Yet it's still under 750k? Absolutely dire.

Your first time? You're in for a fun time, little guy

what part of fake and gay don't you get
you got any numbers to back up your claims?

Not that guy but sound desperate

Anon Babble seethes over everything, Z-A is still selling 15+ million copies.

why do you care if a multibillion dollar company makes profit or not? What do you gain from it?

it's le heckin scalperinos!

yeah too bad preorders in japan are specifically tailored to fuck over scalpers, cope n°989087 failed try again next time
