How the fuck is Minecraft on Switch still selling? It's easily the worst way the play the game and I thought children all had ipads.
Wow surprised to see doom on the list
Also nice to see breath of the wild still in top 30 instead of totk
What happened with the last threads?
What happened?
i hope clair obscur being so low shows how shit and garbage these threads are
[PS5] DOOM: The Dark Ages (Bethesda Softworks, 05/15/25) – 1,319 (New)
so he says when jap sales can barely reach 7k
europe is bigger
america is bigger
china is bigger
Even mobile is bigger
Street Fighter 6 sold over 1 million copies in Japan
Total sales of Street Fighter VI in Japan top 1 million units.
That's the first non-Smash fighting game million seller since Tekken 3, and the first for Street Fighter since Alpha 2.

Yakuza 8 Sales Are "Strong", Especially In Japan and Asia
Furthermore, sales in Japan and Asia seem to have made up a big part of this momentum, as Yokoyama notes, “The game is incredibly strong in Japan. Sales in (the rest of) Asia are also quite strong, but the momentum in Japan is even greater than in the past.”
Tales of Arise sales by model PS=60%, PC=30%, Xbox=10% Japan sales: approx. 650,000
Sales by Region
Japan & Asia ~1.2M
North America ~1M
EMEA >700k
Latin America <100k
Ratio by model
PS <60%
PC <30%
Xbox >10%
Combined

I am nooooticing
He takes the example of the launch of Metaphor: ReFantazio in early October: the title sold well in Japan, but it also performed extremely positively across the entire Asian continent, he tells us.
It's not as lopsided as something like Yakuza but a bit less than half of Metaphor WW sales are in Asia (because EMEA remains relatively weak for historical reasons)
spam bot is up again
the guy who made the bot much be SEETHING after all those companies announced switch 2 ports
Armored Core VI sucked 700k dicks In Japan.
ARMORED CORE VI achieved a minor success with over 700,000 dicks sucked in Japan. Digital dick sucking was also included
Armored Core VI Japan physical sales plummet to only 25%
Japs just straight up don't give a fuck about western games anymore. Pretty based
Also hey, he found the thread.
>[NSW] The Battle Cats Unite! (Ponos, 12/03/20) – 1,116 (338,820)
Meow meow mother fuckers
anymore
they've not cared for a while
The Switch 1 is on its last legs and yet it’s still outselling the PS5 1/4. I honestly don’t even understand how that makes any sense.
nintendo lies as per usual
reminder that sony owns a higher percentage of stock in the company that own famitsu than nintendo does
Proof?
nintendo owns famitsu
Kadokawa owns famitsu
and this is the list of companies that have the most stock in the company
nintendo owns sony group, which is different from their gaming division
I know things are bad for sony but I didn't know they've crashed so hard that nintendo just took over sony
[NSW] Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe (Nintendo, 02/24/23) – 1,051 (606,391)

Nice.
nintendo owns sony group
What am I reading.
ring fit still in the top 30
hope nintendo makes a ring fit 2
Show proof that they own Sony Group, then
those sales numbers
the pro isn't going to even break 1 million units unless sony pulls out some extreme bullshitting of their numbers
I don't want to alarm anybody but the two SKUs of the new Fantasy Life game are both 1st and 2nd place on the eShop.
Sort of random question, but I was discussing the wiiu launch vs the switch launch with a (notably younger) friend of mine. I said that part of the reason for the wiiu's failure was that the wii's audience comoletely moved on, and interest in the wii was largely dead by the end of its life. In contrast, I think the switch has maintained interest with its audience much better than the wii did, which will help with the switch 2. However, they were insistent that the wii "was still hot" at the end of its life. Which one of us is misremembering history here?
*switch 2 launch, dammit
Xenoshit flopped
KEKAROO!!!
Hmmake your bets, how many threads will we have during the Switch 2 week?
Last time we had a lot was Rebirth's launch week, there were like 8 threads iirc lol
Where's that image of Nintendo owning the illuminati?
Fatal Fury where?
No wonder the snoys have been crashing out so hard recently.
Time to move on, anon.
Already out of the top 30
Holy fucking flop
It might have a chance to at least not be a giga bomb if SNK ports it to switch 2 near launch window
Perosnally i just hope they port KoF XV
Capcom might be a lot of things but it is the only developer that truly never left Nintendo, ever since NES the only console I can think Capcom snubbed was the Virtual boy.
They didn't even ported UM kofs despite rereleasing those on PS4 and smash wank.
SF6 would eat its lunch lol. Nintendo has been pushing really hard for it.
Speaking of Capcom, I hope they port RE4R soon.
N64 sorta, it only had what Mega Man 64 and RE2?
Yeah only had DASH and RE2, is still far more than its contemporaries Like SE and ATLUS.
I think the game's fortunes have already been decided.
lol, how would you explain their sega and playstation exclusives?
Pretty sure TOTK outsold it a while ago and it keeps popping up every now and then.
SF2 was the best selling console game in a long ass time for capcom, till RE5 and Monhun surpassed, but still hold the title for a single platform.
Nintendo still is quite proud of it.
Explain what? I never said that Capcom was exclusive, I said that Capcom despite everything it always supported Nintendo Consoles one way or another.
Nothing to do with exclusives.
I'm pretty sure those must have some exclusivity deals,.especially 2002
Otherwise how the hell do.they port 13 but not 98? (And i really wanted that one too,.it'd complement the usf2 in my shelf nicely)
While i don't doubt sf6 would kill it head to head, releasing it a Few moths later during a free period might get them some sales which is better than nothing at this point
I think Gatou's fucked yeah, but sometimes sticking to a promised schedule and expanding can pay dividends
Look at sf5 to sf6, i doubt SF6 would have its current level of acceptance if capcom had dropped SFv after the 2nd season despite the shit sales
nintendo's hardware and software sales will never make sense, is the average jap literally just buying a switch and playing one game
these numbers for the PS5 keeps getting less and less
when does Sony call it quits for japan?
Where is GOTY 2024 Astrobot?
That was fast. Now watch as everyone will pretend they never cared about it and that it didn't have an insane shilling campaign
Might pick it up if it comes to Switch 2.
How pozzed is this game?
Watch all the shilling disappear the second they announce it lmao
disgusting tendie general
Damn! And the schizo was already preparing the spambot posting.
Never forget.
Karma always finds a way.
It's kinda weird to think we're looking at the last few weeks of the Switch.
isn't the switch 1 still getting games well into 2026? I think nintendo is keeping it alive for at least one more year
Even with piracy damaging sales more, Nintendo isn't going to drop the Switch instantly like they did with the DS when the 3DS came out. I expect at least another year or two of support from Nintendo.
does anyone have that chart of all the PS5 games that will save Sony in japan? what's the next game on the list? kingdom hearts 4?
It's not dying yet. Doug Bowser confirmed nintendo is going to continue providing games (mostly HD ports) for S1 owners, I mean they already have some games planned to release next year like tomodachi life and rhythm heaven
thats not really true.
if you check japan steam charts they got quite a bit of westslop up there with very high player numbers too.
apex as an example has been dominating.
these threads arent that accurate for game sales anymore because a lot shifted to digital.
they are accurate for hardware sales though.
I will show you where I have made my home while preparing to bring fun. Then I will break you.
Your precious multiplats, gratefully accepted. We will need it, for our new console.
Even with piracy damaging sales
Enough with this excuse
It happened with Persona 5, it happened with Elden Ring and they're going to eventually stop shilling for E33 when it gets a switch 2 port. The only game they have left is GTA6
where's the shilling for death stranding 2 or marathon?
You know, Monster Hubter Wilds really is gonna be the last win in Japan for Sony in a very long time lol.
They really have nothing now, games like the sequel to GoT or KH4 will do okayish but nothing crazy.
Switch 2 has Japan all by itself. Not even the original Switch had it this easy.
Say this when piracy is wide spread.
I don't see how this surprises anyone. Switch2 will continue to be an indie console of choice for many. Especially if they keep their pc prices
Diablo 3 got ported with extra stuff, I wonder if blizzard going do again with D4.
i hope so, it's going to be the only version that doesn't require an always online connection. and maybe it'll even have lan support like D3 did on the switch.
Also DMC port, Capcom can release DMC 4&5 Nero Duology with extra coop mode like DMC3 Switch Edition, especially 4SE with all the playable character is perfect for multiplayer.
Would be neat. Hoping to make a Necromancer with skelly army.
Doomposters BTFO as always
Nintendo won
I genuinely hope this game gets a switch 2 port asap to see retards in this board stop shilling it and claim the game wasn't good anyway
Xeno X still hanging there
Nice
Have you noticed the constant doomposting about the switch 2 outside of Anon Babble? It’s hilarious.
[NSW] The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy (Aniplex, 04/24/25) – 1,367 (30,481)
kodakabros...
He already said the game is doing great
outside of Anon Babble? I don't use social media much, are there such hatred for the switch 2 already among the normies?
Dunno about normies, but there's certainly people trying to farm the price of the Switch 2 games for clicks.
oh right, those weirdos going around screaming "90 dollars for games!! FUCK NINTENDO!!"
I see Japan misses when fighting games were good
Does deltarune count
week so slow that we see sub 1k games sold on the list
ps5 still only gets 3 games in
lole
Also WTF why would Exit 8 of all things need a physical version? I know it was a streamer meme for a week but damn.
One false assumption is always that Wii users moved on to phones. When they actually moved on to ps3 and ps4.
Yes, all the people that bought a Wii for Wii Sports and Wii Fit bought a PS3 and PS4, you fucking dumbass.
nepobaby multistudio game with massmarketing
"indie"
It's basically that or your game doesn't sell shit. For every successful indie, there's a ton of dead ones.
Lmao, and thus another cope dies
It never ceases to amaze me just how deep on their knees Japan is for Nintenslop. Like for fucks sake get some taste.
maybe you should try making some games they'd want, then?
wow I like videogames
let me get a cheap bluerayplayer to play all the mainstream ones people shill to me since my wii got 0 of them
It's not ricket science.
It isn't.
Preorders are reportedly below 750k GLOBALLY
Panic behind the scenes
Holy shit, this is actually worse than the wiiu. I guess a lot of preorders got cancelled when they found out about 360p, so it might be even lower than that by now. Dont be surprised when Nintendo lowers their forecast.....again
Proof?
This but eurogroids buying every yearly FIFA update and amerimutts buying the yearly CoD games.
No proof!
Not videogames. Fuck off.
So it's just a false flag then.
I don't think it's possible to be more wrong than this. No one gave a shit about Blu-ray, the casuals buying the Wii didn't like video games, they were just getting in on a fad, and the PS3 and PS4 had no games.
uh oh the schizo is awake and already shitting up the thread and seething about nintendo
False
360p in fucking 2025
You buying this shit?
Mental illness
The switch 2’s screen is 1080p.
Hey, get ready to suck dog dicks niggy
[PS5] DOOM: The Dark Ages (Bethesda Softworks, 05/15/25) – 1,319 (New)
And people swore up and down that "Japan loves DOOM" back in the rosterfaggin' days.
All of PS5 combined couldn't clear Switch LITE in its twilight days
That's fucking grim.
Wasnt there a source for japanese digital sales in some Famitsu magazines?
Feels like that+physical numbers would paint a way better picture for japan sales.
I'd assume that a significant chunk of Switch games are sold digitally now. And there's Steam growing in japan too.
Capcom said last years sales were 90% digital for them.
So why do you have multiple trips and randomly swap between them?
Don't like being held to account?
Can't hold a conversation without pretending others agree?
When Famitsu puts out yearly reports they do digital estimations (which are very shaky).
For Switch at least, Nintendo does sales breakdown per region, so you can take total sales in Japan for some game and by comparing it to Famitsu numbers you get digital sales.
Capcom said last years sales were 90% digital for them.
That includes 30 years worth of old games and DLC which are all digital.
I'd assume that a significant chunk of Switch games are sold digitally now.
Yeah probably but not for the reason you think. Physical games always sell more than their digital counterparts however there are more digital only games than physical games so it skews the numbers.
Too anti-Nintendo, had to be deleted
WTF, I DON'T HATE THIS GAME ANYMORE
Reminder that Minecraft is better than BOTW wnd OOT put together.
You're supposed to hate it now.
The thing is that the ones who were lured in by Wii Sports only left pretty eary as the 'fad' died down so it was the usual Nintendo diehards that remained by the midway point. Comparing the early period when every family wanted the console just for Wii Sports and the latter half when it was actual game players will of course make it seem like the console fell off a cliff.
Who cares about turn based snoozeslop? Tendies wont be playing Monster Hunter Wilds
forgetting the GOAT with the fucking awesome OST
Will you also claim it was always shit when it inevitably gets announced for Switch 2?
NINTENDO IS BAD, BECAUSE... BECAUSE THEY OWN SONY
We're reaching levels of mindbreak that shouldn't be possible.
Furukawa forced Sony to waste money on TLoU multiplayer, Concord, Marathon and Fairgames
How did he get away with it?
Forced them to make Astro Bot just so the developers can praise Mario instead at the Game Awards.
Delightfully Devilish
What is this mental illness?
Nintendchads will either play the definitive edition of Wilds or have their own MonHun.
He's been doing this unhinged sony console warrior bit for over a decade now
1) It has the greatest games
2) It has actualy exclusives
3) It's affordable compared to Playstation in general
4) Online is cheaper
5) Sony has been pissing off Japan in general and even the Japanese make fun of Sony and says only those who buys it are those "who can't build a PC."
Of course Switch 2 also has BC so it's just a smoother experience. For all we know Sony will go digital only next gen
Not to mention that snoys have a special monicker and are treated like cockroaches.
The numbers aren't even low. Relative to what platform it's on that is.
Not to mention
The yen lost 50% of the value. What do we do?
Nintendo: Ignore exchange rate. Make Switch 2 bump in price over Switch be the same in Japan as in USA and Europe.
Sony: Increase the price of PS5 thirce! Make it cost as much as a small car!
It can't be overstated how much goodwill Nintendo garnered with this move
So that one janny finally gave up on deleting these threads, what was the deal with that anyway?
The usual suspect(s?) are mass reporting them, that's why.
Anon Babble mod probably told 'em to fuck off
Did it outsell PS2 already?
Several times. It's why Sony used the Avatar strategy.
Oh, you are talkin about that bullshit that they found out some sales 18 years later?
so how's that dog thing going
Why is this fake and misleading spam allowed? I thought this shit was finally getting banned.
Xbox Series X/S
28.3 millions
The funniest thing is that the 160 million number ISN'T them claiming the already absurd "oops, 5 million more sales i. The 13 years it's been since we stopped counting", they're saying it was ALWAYS 160 million this entire time and they're only just now correcting it, which is a pure coincidence on the timing, they assure us. They're 100% doing it this way to leave it open for ANOTHER jump.
Why is videogame and videogame console performance discussion in the videogames board allowed?
Meant for
Congratulations with 162 millions sales! Not impressive as out 200mil but good result regardless
These numbers are fake and propaganda
Not after a shipment of 20 million PS2s to the city of Ugarit has been found in a recently translated clay tablet from Uruk, I'm afraid.
Official industry figures are now "make and misleading
Famitsu is owned by Kadokawa.
Sony is the majority shareholder of Kadokawa.
In saying their numbers are fake, you also say that Sony publish fake numbers.
So either the industry shared and accepted numbers are wrong every single week or they never sold 150 million consoles.
Which is it?
fake and misleading
Prove it. You won't, and you will only post vague statements such as "I have all the sources", falsehoods such as "Nintendo owns Famitsu" without any kind of proof, or project your mental illness onto me.
Or you will simply just not reply to this post.
Basically, you will do anything but present actual proof.
Digital sales, retard. These are not official
[NSW] Pikmin 4 (Nintendo, 07/21/23) – 1,150 (1,317,275)
It's almost like the guy peaked in elementary school and can't argue in any capacity.
Physical numbers aren't official
lmao
Didn't realize console sales could be digital too, where can I download them?
Expedition 33 on Switch 2. Would it sell well?
No. They aren't. You have already chosen your pitiful end
No. They aren't.
Prove it. You won't. Sony lost. You lost.
You have already chosen your pitiful end
Is this the new "You are mentally I'll"?
Are you just making things up now, schizo?
Aww, he as to attempt empty threads because the sad reality is you have absolutely no bearing on the world.
You can't stop the Switch from overtaking the falsified PS2 sales
You can't take away the fact that millions of pre-orders have happened for the Switch 2
You can't handle that there's going to be another 8 years of this.
And you can't do anything to me, loving the timeline that does everything to make an embarrassment of you
Depends, I think it really needs a Japanese dub to sell well.
Considering , it's a possibility.
I like Slayer too, but you shouldn't make it your entire personality
This is why having a father in your life is important, everyone. You'll end up like this retard.
Now this is pitiful
I'd just like to comment that literally anyone can say "mentally i'll", so don't take that as confirmation that you're arguing with the real deal.
In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a bunch of unaffiliated people all pretending to be him.
Not even atheist historians take Jesus mythicism seriously, and they take some DUMB stuff seriously. Literally only r/atheism takes Jesus mythicism seriously.
I’m pretty sure eric popped in later ans is just taking advantage. There’s another anon who was relentlessly shitting on the game. he popped in the fantasy life threads
Nah it's just his alters
This faggot makes me feel ashamed of being an atheist
...anyway, back to vydia, I'm impressed that Jamboree is still doing THIS good
Reddit is smarter and more moral than anyone religious. That includes tendies. You have already chosen your pitiful end
I’ll still pray for you everyday to allah friend.
How is acting like him not mentally ill?
and they take some DUMB stuff seriously
Like what? Genuinely curious, as a former atheist and current agnostic.
Xenoblade X still in the top 30
Neat. Gib X2 nao.
It's a good way to farm (You)s
Mario Party has essentially become another multiplayer powerhouse for Nintendo.
You chose your pitiful end by letting Nintendo live in your head rent-free.
Alright, I'll do my absolute best to keep this as brief as I can and not derail the thread too much, but my go-to is what's called the "Anonymous Authorship Hypothesis". The gist of it is that the four Gospels don't contain the names of their authors within the actual documents, but only in their titles, "The Gospel According To ____", (except John, but they always have 1001 copes about how John "totally doesn't count, you guys!"), and even when their supposed author is involved in the events of the story, will be referred to in 3rd person rather than 1st, therefore, they must have been originally anonymous, and the names were added 100-200 years later to lend them credibility. There are 3 main problems with this, and plenty of smaller ones too, and I'll try to give an inexhaustive and brief summary of the three main ones.
The Epistle to the Hebrews WAS anonymous, and its history looks very different to the Gospels
The Epistle to the Hebrews, an actual anonymously authored document, had dozens of different traditions in the early, pre-Nicene church. Some thought it was Paul, some thought it was someone intentionally imitating Paul's style, some thought it was Paul authoring the document and dictating to a scribe who put it in their own words, and still others thought it was from a half dozen other candidates. Churches were very scattered and not in contact with one another at this time, so these traditions would drift into various degrees of how certain they were about a particular author. Meanwhile, out of thousands of manuscript samples from the era, not one ever lists the four Gospels as anything other than Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. You don't even get a mix up like referring to the 3rd Gospel as Matthew or the 1st as John.
This is how biographies were written back then
Other biographies and historical works we have from antiquities follow the same conventions, such as The Annals of Tacitus, and many others.
1/2
How is Mario Party bigger than Monster Hunter now?
That's the PS5 malus in effect. Capcom must be fastracking a new MH portable for SW2 after these pitiful Wilds sales in Japan. They're lucky they have China and PC to pick up the slack.
The X universe got literally destroyed.
they sent every relevant character into the main xenoblade universe
STILL EXPECTING X2
You are getting xenoblade chronicles 4 with something of X there but you are NEVER getting X2. They went out of their way to eliminate X as a spin off by absorbing it into mainline.
continuing from antiquities biographies/historical works
It would be absurd to call into question the authenticity of a 1st century document solely because it doesn't conform to 20th century writing conventions. Additionally, it would make sense that John, an illiterate fisherman who most likely dictated his Gospel, would be the one to break this convention.
The names make no sense if they were added after the fact
All four of them in at least some part get the credibility and authority to their names BECAUSE they were the authors of the Gospels. That would be like saying game freak only started calling them pokemon red and green in 2000 to capitalize on pokemania. None of these would have been the names someone would have chosen if they were going to fake it, either. Matthew was a reviled traitor to his own people. Mark was Peter's interpreter, anyone adding a name would have called it The Gospel According To Peter. Luke wasn't even an eyewitness, he just interviewed them. John was mostly known as "John, brother of James", but is at least a plausible name to come up with... if you had already used up Peter, James, and Barnabas. He's also the only one that says "oh, by the way, I'm John" in his Gospel.
Despite all these, and many other issues, this is somehow taken seriously and given legitimate weight. That should really show you how low of a caliber the r/atheism drivel Eric spews is.
not him but I'm fine with that as long as Xenoblade 4 (or whatever it's called) has playable mecha. XB2 and 3 were such fucking teases with the likes of Siren and the Ferronis.
Damn... Thanks for the writeup anon. I learned quite a bit about some of the weirder beliefs that some atheists have.
Legit it's because Super Mario Party > Mario Party Superstars > Jamboree were each seen as a return to form for the Mario Party we're familiar with and, more importantly, all are good and also better games than the game released before them.
You're retarded.
1. There's no singular "X universe", the story of X itself literally takes place across 3-4 different universes (Elma's universe, Earth's universe, Mira's universe, the new universe the WW2 arrives at at the end of the game)
2. X was always part of the Xeno multiverse
3. There's no proof that the planet the X cast arrives at is in the mainline universe
4. Even if it was, it isn't Earth since it has orbital rings
They could totally make an X sequel about exploring and colonizing the new planet the White Whale 2 arrived at. "X" as a spin-off isn't about what "universe" it is or isn't it, it's about gameplay (open world exploration with mechs) and themes (humanity's fight for survival and what it means to be "human")
Maybe is related to Code Mystics, but that's just me talking out of my ass.
What is the difference between combined and global?
Global likely excludes Asian countries. Combine that with them likely doing the multipliers for chinese gachas again and it's likely that the results are doctored.
Good news it's coming for the Switch 2, so expect even more sales.
Those 2 probably as well
"Global" is the name of the specific server. IIRC, Japan and China have dedicated servers for tcg pocket, with everyone else sharing one. "Combined" is what you'd THINK global is, all servers revenue combined. Essentially, worldwide for those games is barely beating out tcg pocket WITHOUT japan and china.
Those orbital rings are also in the same position as the planet that Xenogears takes place on.

Why would they exclude Japan and China from Pokemon TCG's revenue?
Because then a Mihoyo game can be on the top spot
I mean I play against japanese players all the time and chinks for that matter, so I don't think that's true
regardless, those charts seem kinda unreliable in general AND pocket is still the top earner if you put the last two months together lmoa
so they can manipulate the numbers
they've been caught doing it for months now, inflating the mihoyoslop numbers to nearly 10 times while cutting pokemon TCG numbers down to less than half what they actually are

PlayStation 5 Digital Edition – 790 (969,763)
But you said digital games were 90% of sony sales and no one physical games? what happened? why is no one buying the option for just digital? Those leaks showing that digital is AT MOST 30% couldn't be true could they?
It did until Jim Ryan received 20 million ps2s he keeps under his bed
Fuck. Off.
You have already chosen your pitiful end
My end has been determined from the day I was born by God's grace and grand plan for all Mankind.
He forgives you.
Price increases suck but my only thing is where was this controversy when games went up during the PS3/360 era to 60 bucks while Wii games stayed at 50 and the PS5 era when they increased the price to 70 dollars while Switch remained 60 except for Totk.
The 60 and 70 dollar increase just felt like "Oh yeah, that's how things are now" while the 80 dollar price tag gets "NINTENDO'S GREED KNOWS NO BOUNDS!"
g*d loves you!
but don’t you dare not believe in him despite him giving you no indication that he exists, otherwise you might be punished for eternity teehee
but he loves you
Imagine living in fear like that
NDS is a real thing and it is terminal.
The mere mention of God makes him seethe
Considering the absolutely retaarded bullshit Takahashi pulled out with the added content of X remaster, i'm more than glad we'll likely never get X2
Let it forever remain pristine as the gritty story of Humanity's survival in a different planet with just hints of a large supernatural shadown than being tied down to the regular shonen slop the rest fo the series has become
Sony is the synagogue of evil after all.

Do you believe Palestine has the right to defend itself from the genocidal aggressors?
Some people have been mindbroken for decades by nintendo. geoff keighley is a prime example, he did nothing but write anti-nintendo hit pieces trying to frame things like "nintendo is focusing on video games instead of being media center and this will doom them!" for years, constantly tried to glaze sony, and in modern days does things like parrot the "switch 2 game will be $100!" lie or post 50 tweets praising the PS5 pro as it launched

they get what they deserve for being tendies. they have chosen their pitiful end.
Being a Jew is more moral than being a tendie
Thankfully I wasn’t groomed weekly as a kid, so no, I didn’t go to Sunday school
No, it was daily by your father. It's why you worship a Sony pedo VP.

The poor kid was raised in a careless home which never showed him basic morality or empathy.
He probably never had his moment of awareness that he's a conscious being with free will, just like those around him.
Tell me, after friends or family leave the room or building you're in, what do you think happens to them?
Unironically, the moment Nintendo does something questionable, it's literally frothing at the mouth rage for months on end for some people suffering from NDS
Like, every single normie space has people going "woo! Switch 2 is coming soon and it seems kidna fun!" And then a bunch of weirdoes come out and start screeching about anything they can get their hands on to tryr to make it seem worse
Not even the Xbox during its worst blunders, which had plenty of shit thrown at it, had this level of vitriol behind every post against it
You can feel the seethe behind every NDS-suffering nigger when some normie faggot says he kinda wants to play MKW with the cow or something
So, you hate atheists too, right? They're more evangelistic and dogmatic than the average megachurch pastor.
lack of religion is a religion
Now that’s deep
Ironic, your praising of corporations could easily be described as religious fanaticism .
putting a cow on a motorcycle is not vegan
shittendo are animal abusers
I don't snowboard. You don't see me joining anti-snowboarding groups, bringing up how much I hate snowboarding at every chance I get, campaigning to get the teacher with a snowboarding poster on the wall in class at the local high-school fired, or telling other anti-snowboarding people that they aren't doing anti-snowboarding the "correct" way.
The first thing you have to understand is there's a lot of people under the bizarre delusion that a single digit share of the entire console market can just enforce their will on the rest of the market. 90% of the market does not care about whatever stupid bullshit they're upset about and are gonna go out and buy the new COD and this year's incarnation of their favorite sports game and buy some money to spend on Fortnite, and maybe if they're feeling adventurous they'll buy the new Assassin's Creed or Far Cry or something, and yes they'll see there's a new Mario Kart on a new Nintendo platform and see about how to buy it.
And these are working adults and people who only buy less than 5 games a year. That price point literally does not register for them. So the Switch 2 is in high demand and as a result you're also kinda seeing the shadows on the wall of the cave from that 10% or so. Hence the "Lower the price" spam in stream chats and the absolute apoplectic reaction to Doug "So Long Gay" Bowser saying the Switch 1 is still there as an affordable entry level device, as if Nintendo should just eat a loss and sell a platform stronger than the Steam Deck at a hundred dollars less than the Steam Deck. And also that Nintendo will get to decide 10th gen price points unilaterally.
Also just general denial that most AAA games don't already sell $80-100 versions regularly. These are the exact morons that the psychological effect of $69.99 vs $70 works on.
Next is due to the absolutely anemic state of 9th gen consoles we're still sort of trapped with the PS4 audience who are why consoles are still so slow to move on. It's likely a lot of the Switch 2 whining is also coming from people STILL ON PS4 and why COD/sports still comes out on those platforms. AC Shadows and GTA6 are basically the first time any of the big hyper mainstream franchises are only on 9th gen platforms.
Well, snowboarders aren’t going around trying to tell other people what they’re supposed to do and passing legislation now are they? That’s such a retarded analogy. Maybe try a food analogy.

How much you want to bet that any of the devs still working on the 8th gen consoles are going to be abandoned just to move on to the switch 2 as a new minimum?
Nintendo makes decisions that are worth criticizing
create your own arguments without evidence
why?
There was multi-week seething about the mere (and retarded) speculation that mario kart world used generative ai, which reached a point where Nintendo felt they had to respond to it, their "evidence" for it being that mario kart was cartoony, stylized, and unrealistic, which 100% means it can only be ai. A mario game. Meanwhile, fucking CRICKETS about sony openly advertising a gamedev position asking for someone skilled with generative ai.
Yes, I’m definitely talking about murder, all atheists eat kids after all.
"This standard ToS that every single console manufacturer has had some variant of since at least the 7th gen? The one that the switch 2's is identical to word for word with the switch's aside from changing switch to switch 2? They're out of nowhere gonna start doing hunger games style drafts and picking random people to brick purely for the fun of it, despite literally zero reason or precedent for doing so. If you disagree that this is about to happen, you're a bootlicker."
How do you respond without sounding mad?
I think you’re talking about another anon. I haven’t mentioned a single corporation in my posts. I just replied to the christfaggotry
It wasn't Christians who tried to outlaw teaching the big bang in schools by the way. The atheist position was that the universe always existed and doesn't have any finite point of creation. They opposed it until the point the evidence was impossible to ignore and then switched tactics and started saying that there being evidence of the universe being created disproves Christianity. But they're just so smart and care about science, you see.
I hate christians and atheists equally when they both start making VIDEO GAME threads about their damn petty arguments holy FUCK these people won't fuck off on Anon Babble either
first chance to see a Famitsu thread this week
slow week despite a bunch of new releases and the regular evergreens
Switch 1 still managing to crest to 25k
thread is arguing about some stupid bullshit about Christianity and atheism or whatever
Fuck you faggots I'll see you next week.
Nintendo is cooked with their all online system. it's like wii-u, but worse.

never take ques for from fucking Microsoft
It's a slow ass week, there's really nothing to talk about except how dire things are for playstation, speculate about the switch 2, and tip the cow
Tbf, the ToS is slightly different from the Switch's. Switch's only says that unauthorized content will be removed while Switch 2's is the "may render software and/or hardware partially or completely unusable". And they're not talking about firmware updates bricking systems with CFW as that's specified in the following section of the Switch 2 EULA. Xbox's EULA only warns about modded systems potentially having issues with system updates being installed. I think Nintendo really means "software may be rendered completely unusable and hardware partially unusable" (like turning off online play) but they combined the two clauses to cover their asses for any possible eventuality that may arise.

What the fuck did Capcom put on the WiiU?
Tri Ultimate and Revelations 1+2?

Friendly fire, dummy.
Mh3u and megaman in smash are both pretty huge
It's always fun to talk about how shit Playstation is.
How they manage to fuck things up to the point they make Microsoft look competent is hilarious.
You're replying to a brazillian monkey doing his best attempt at a false flag
oops, I guess the dummy name-calling still applies
nintendo owns sony group, which is different from their gaming division
Are you trying to say that not only does Nintendo own Sony, but that Sony Interactive Entertianment is independent from Sony? Are you going to hate on non-SIE Sony products like their TVs and cameras now because they're apparently made by Nintendo?
Xbox already accepted that they are a 3rd party and lost ther foothold as a console manufacturer.
PS is going to be more stubborn thanks to the sweet, sweet cut they get of PSN purchases and MTX.
To be fair
Tri Ultimate is the finest Monhun to date
(Also, Rev 2 wasn't in it to my knowledge, just Rev 1)
Meh, the gist remains the same "edit our shit in anyway and you're bound to get fucked"
People bitching about it are almost certainly underage because bricking was always a real threat back then, it's just that companies have been more restrained in bricking lately due to the explosion of the hobby and wanting to avoid shitstorms, but as their ecosystems grow more closed and predictable they develop better ways to avoid screwing over a legit customer and therefore can apply more pressure to pirates
It's not my first rodeo avoiding bricking, my pals and i flashed everything from the ps2 to the 360 and every portable in between
They're really pushing the 360p thing, aren't they?
It's the latest in a series of massive copes.
It would explain why every division of sony hates the sinking ship that is SIE
spend your money retard
I mean, if your entire division got downsized and your building sold, while Ronnie Retard's pet division nearly tanked the entire company but keeps being babied, wouldn't you be pissed?
When quoting multiple posts, he includes one of his own to appear more legitimate or to give the impression those calling him out are doing so at random.

You can really tell how nervous doomposters are getting because of what happens in 2 weeks kek.
So, what's got the local schizo so mad this ti-
PlayStation 5 – 3,497 (5,661,973)
PlayStation 5 Pro – 2,259 (208,289)
PlayStation 5 Digital Edition – 790 (969,763)

[PS5] DOOM: The Dark Ages (Bethesda Softworks, 05/15/25) – 1,319 (New)
PlayStation 5 – 3,497 (5,661,973)
See? He didn't.
all the usual retards trying to claim nintendo is the great satan for charging $80 for new games
meanwhile sony is charging over $100 for a PS3 game that already has 2 other PS5 ports
Steam is pretty small over there compared to the Switch and the PS5 still.
Look at how the Dragon Quest 3 Remake did over there vs the Switch or even the PS5 version.
you can connect USB mice to the Switch 2 and use those instead of the joycon mice
That's neat. I wonder if devs will add keyboard support too.
youtu.be
Yeah but this one comes with a "thank you goi" letter so it's okay
They make this shit up don’t they
USB mouse with analog stick on other hand
Finally. I wonder how keybinds on the mouse works... Can't wait for it. Hopefully it works decently at least rather than autobinds stuff.
Third parties will still sell like shit tho. Nintendo hasn't upgraded their platform or services properly and the hardware architecture is still different and weaker than the industry standard.
Really makes you wonder how many ps5s SOLD IN japan actually remained in japan. I wouldn't be surprised if the number is in the 2.5 million range.
360p cope isn't sticking
750k cope isn't sticking
the "accounting error" that Nintendo has billions is actually millions because of magic currency conversion cope isn't sticking
Expedition 33 looks like it's heading to Switch 2
GTA6 being delayed for a year so that means PS5 is barren until then
Marathon stealing art that Sony flushed 4 billion dollars down the drain
Concord lost more money than like 4 of the worst performing movies of all time and now holds the record of the largest flop in existence
Huge list of cancelled PS5 games
Sony raises prices on PS5
Playstation stars is shut down
If they started from scratch, we will have to wait 5-6 years before we see any new games because of the bloated AAA process
I think snoys are cautious about DS2 because they know it's going to be on PC so they already dumped the game and Marathon is like a game developed by the philosophy of "What are things that audiences don't want in their game"
Don't forget, sony's gonna shit out ai sludge so that their ps6 games can even release before the ps7
I think Firaxis said Switch was the best-selling platform for console Civ 6. I can only imagine that tracks for most third parties. Just look at DQ3HD or SMTVV or Unicorn Overlord. And that was an "underpowered tablet" whereas Switch 2 will have caught up to where much of the industry has stagnated.
The hardware specs are already out so people can compare them.
Civ on a console is genuinely a strange thing
Neat, as another former atheist, current agnostic here. Makes me cringe when I see some of the retardation I accepted and regurgitated so readily.
Someone tell him that Israel has the only Nintendo store outside of Japan and America. He'll be targeted by Mossad within the month.
That seems like two games tho. The industry will be pushing 100 bucks as standard next year tho.
Honestly Playstation Stars shutting down is hilarious to me. Kicking your most loyal fans in nuts is just so stupid and amazing at the same time I can't even.
No more muh lack of power excuses
I wonder what going be this time, sure carts are expensive but we live in a digital age.
PS5 is just THAT undesirable.
Funnily I think is the type of game to play if you are going to spend a few hours on a plane or a train for some reason.
The one more turn mentality can make the hours pass quickly
Source: It was revealed to me in a dream.
Note: playing 4X games on consoles lmao
Imagine the seethe if Death Stranding 1 gets ported to Switch 2.
Expanding your potential playerbase makes perfect sense for a company with more niche genres like Firaxis. Paradox has been doing it for a while now. CK3 was day and date on consoles with the PC launch. It only causes issues if the PC UI ends up gimped to accommodate console players like happened with Civ 7. That might stop happening though if Xbox and Playstation also do more direct integration of mouse mode which might happen since PC is eating the console market right now anyway.
Well the Yakuza have ties with the CIA so that extends to the Mossad probably.
[PS5] DOOM: The Dark Ages (Bethesda Softworks, 05/15/25) – 1,319 (New)
How does this compare to the previous two? Because this looks grim as fuck.
The Switch 2 is a lot less powerful than next gen console or low end GPUs tho.
Death Stranding was a PS4 game so it wouldn't be weird.
Okay, faggot.
What you might not expect, however, is that Firaxis didn't expect just how successful the game would be on the hybrid console. Speaking to Christopher Dring over at GameIndustry.biz, executive producer Dennis Shirk noticed that PC players (their core player base) were double-dipping: "We found that a lot of our PC players were getting the game on Switch because they could take their game with them."
nintendolife.com
I didn't say that PC wasn't still the lion share of all Civ 6 sales just that of the console editions Switch is far and away the best selling.
Just in Japan or globally? For the latter it's hard to say since it being on sloppass is going to obscure a lot of the playerbase from clearer metrics like steam charts. id says it's their biggest launch ever but again you have to remember that it includes sloppass players who aren't actually paying for the game directly.
niche genres
Civilization VI sold more than 10 million copies.
Two games that have each been repeatedly ported and remastered which regularly go on sale for ~$15 each
Marathon stealing art that Sony flushed 4 billion dollars down the drain
Concord lost more money than like 4 of the worst performing movies of all time and now holds the record of the largest flop in existence
how are we still not seeing any articles about a fucking witch hunt in sie?
At the bare minimum, JP 3rd parties are going to be jumping all over the Switch 2 if only to save themselves because the PS5 has been a graveyard for non live-service game sales.
"We found that a lot of our PC players were getting the game on Switch because they could take their game with them"
Meanwhile you said:
Firaxis said Switch was the best-selling platform for console Civ 6.
I meant that Civ's audience is only on PC mostly. A push to release on consoles is a way to expand into potentially a large untapped market for that kind of game.
Same reason they all stopped talking about concord and started talking about astrobot in unison. Who do you think pays the bills at any of these gaming journo sites?
Just in Japan
that one
monhun wilds sales are still this low
shit is more fucked than I imagined
It don't need be, and been proven multiple times. Look at PS2, DS and Wii.
Switch 2 hardware is more than adequate, and can run then current gen without issues with proper optimization.
Pretty sure the new Indiana Jones movie lost almost as much money as Concord tho.
Also, The Last of Us, special letter edition.
My impression is that most Japanese third parties are like Capcom in that their primary market is in the West, while China and SEA are growing rapidly.
Imagine being proud of a series that's more remake than original game.
I remember playing Civilization II on the PSX.
Sometimes I just think if gamepass is destroying modern gaming
The PS2 was a pretty powerful console and the DS had features that made it completely different from other devices.
Someone must pull a Luigi on Cuckmann.
Most third party games that launch dsy one on Switch did better there.
Sonic games
Unicorn Overlord
Dragon Quest 3
Crash Team Racing
Monster Hunter Rise even though it launched on other playforms latter did extremely well on the Switch
The problem is that third parties didn't gave the Switch many day one releases.
most
It's literally only a couple, and capcom is one of the only ones that's actually successful at it. Just about every one of them that's TRIED westernizing got the shit kicked out of them when western sloppa lovers didn't buy their icky japan crap, while their domestic sales cratered because it was no longer aimed at a Japanese audience.

Brutal. You didn't need to smash the Sonyroaches like that, they were pulverized after your post.
The PS2 was a pretty powerful console
Compared to DC, sure but still lot of ifs, compared to rest of gen, fuck no. Not mention that PS2 used assload of scanline tricks to get stuff done, including running game at retardly low resolutions.
Pretty sure the hexbox and the Gamecube were both more capable. At the very least they were easier to develop for.
Sony Group will rape him if Space Blasian Game doesn't do well, which it might not since it doesn't have Uncharted or The Last of Us in its name.
I was actually alive for the 6th gen console wars. Sony roaches literally would try to claim that 480i is somehow better than 480p, only to then turn around and brag when a couple ps2 games supported 480p.
The PS2 was a pretty powerful console
Dude, it was the weakest in its gen on top of being the hardest console of the three to develop for.
Thing is, capcom had that audience prior to westernizing, with the exception of MH when they westernised with World.
I can somewhat expect Switch 2 ports of Age of Empires 2, Stronghold (including Crusader) and Dawn of War Remaster
I'm going to predict some future shitposts.
Metroid Prime 4
will post screenshots/footage from Switch 1 in handheld mode and claim it's from Switch 2 docked
will claim that the mouse aiming doesn't work
will call it censored garbage if the Zero Suit doesn't appear, and even if it does he'll say it should have been a bikini
will make up some term like "gameplay censorship" if Samus is partly undressed only in the fastest completion time endings
will call it a Doom ripoff
I remember back in the late 90's and 2000's there were like 8-10 3rd party franchises that could easily sell 1m units in Japan while ignoring Nintendo platforms. Now the only 3rd party titles that could do that are Dragon Quest and Monster Hunter.
Not even MH can break 1 million in Japan outside of Nintendo anymore
>will call it censored garbage if the Zero Suit doesn't appear, and even if it does he'll say it should have been a bikini
Nah, that's ACfag's territory so if the zero suit is in it he'll say something like
if you like prime 4 you like the oversexualised Samus from Other M like every Nintendo fanboy now look at this thread with Samus being fucked by Sylux I made and call shame upon the fanbase and not me because I have nothing to do with that thread
I bought a switch and a bunch of games I’ve never played and now I don’t know where to start
Help
Likely the Rainfall schizos still desperately latching on anything that could claim Nintendo Japan is censoring third-parties
I'm just assuming Wilds already passed 1m or is close to passing it if you include digital sales. It's still a sad showing though.
I remember back in the late 90's and 2000's there were like 8-10 3rd party franchises that could easily sell 1m units in Japan while ignoring Nintendo platforms
That's because they were still making games with the mentality they were when they needed to compete on Nintendo systems. Now they're just copying whatever's popular in the west
Yeh
Now the only 3rd party titles that could do that are Dragon Quest and Monster Hunter.
Now
Not now. Back in 2018. 7 years ago. Monster hunter wilds had the lowest launch of the series in 15 years, barely higher than mh3u, which was a launch window title for the 3ds, which famously had an extremely rough 1st year. DQ spinoffs flop on playstation, DQ3 did embarrassingly bad on playstation, and 11's ps4 version got outsold by a downgraded 3ds port, which was only put into production because horii looked at ps4 software sales and was spooked. Ps5 software sales tend to average 45% of what their equivalent ps4 game sold.
What kind of game do you like, and what did you buy?
Sure, but World did over 3 million in PS4 in Japan
Maybe, but it didn't at launch, which is what those 8-10 franchises were able to consistently do
The switch 2 is already about to dominate Japan. I can't imagine what it's going to look like when they drop splatoon 4 next year.
And yet the amount of misinformation Switch 2 and hate crusades against over literal nothingburgers are all over the place. I wonder why.
The one more turn mentality can make the hours pass quickly
That’s actually pretty based, I would love to play a game like that on a plane.
Indiana Jones lost money because of reshoots and Hollywood accounting to avoid calling a movie profitable as long as possible. It still made $300 million at the box office, it's just that it cost so much to make, way more than any other Indiana Jones flick, it would've been impossible to be profitable unless it was making like Avengers/Barbie/Mario money.
Concord was disastrous because nobody bought it. If Concord made anywhere close to $300M we would've heard about it.
Eh Splatoon 3 just wrapped up not a few years ago. If EPD 5 puts out anything I imagine Animal Crossing's team is probably closer to release than Splatoon's.
Works cited:
Can't twist numbers anymore so now the metric is engagement and online users
Best part is that every single MTX project that sony did flopped hard so far, aside helldivers but that was just 15 minutes of fame.
rest of the gen that came out later and sold at a massive loss
Nah, they're gonna wait until the switch 2 lite is out before AC. AC audience is more likely to wait a couple years to pick up a switch 2/wait for a cheaper model, splatoon audience will be the ones picking up a switch 2 on day 1. Splat 3 also briefly held the record for biggest video game launch of all time in Japanese history.
>will call it censored garbage if the Zero Suit doesn't appear, and even if it does he'll say it should have been a bikini
This, but unironically.
Splatoon 4
Animal Crossing
Pokémon gen X
3D Mario
Smash Bros.
Zelda
And those are just the mainstay heavy hitters, there's bound to plenty of out of pocket games that sell surprisingly huge amounts.
MH Wilds would get to one or two million if they counted digital tho.
Post a pic of the games, also make sure to include a cat or scrawny hand as it's tradition.
Engagement/active user actually is a useful metric as companies pivot towards free live service titles and offer subscription services, especially as publishers don't publish shitloads of games anymore like they did 20 years ago.
Nintendo also makes use of the active user measurement, though it's probably more to show that the Switch isn't having the Wii problem where people just have the thing to play Wii sports, since Nintendo doesn't really have much in the way of live service outside of what mobile games are still alive(Fire Emblem and Pikmin?).
or two million
Lol, ps5 digital sales in japan are even below the switch
The movie required like 800 million to break even, it's possibly a bigger flop than Concord but it's hidden by Disney's accounting tricks.
Nintendo only measures active switch users, and doesn't put that metric front and center, they don't combine three separate platforms into one metric and then refuse to break it down
Nintendo only ever did mobage to please shareholders, they pulled plug really fast and was quite meddling according to cygames since they didn't want go turbo jew.
They are probably falling into the same trap as Xbox in that PS Plus and mtx are some of their main sources of income, so now they have to keep focusing on that even if they don't want to.
inventing games that don't even exist yet
Both are retard but Xbox is just another pet project for MS rather than main source of income.
Also Sony no longer can rely on third parties like before, big hitters are scare and smaller games prefer Nintendo platforms over theirs. Sony first party tiles used to fill a niche but now is just last of us and MTX crap.
SIE would be over $5 BILLION in the red every year without scraping 30% off the top of every microtransaction through psn. Pivoting to MAU is their preemptive cope because costs are increasing faster than revenue.
sony still have aniplex, who put their games on switch lol
Aniplex is Sony music not SIE, branches like that on any mega corp are somewhat independent.
Sony Pictures got Zelda movie for example.
Sony is also a big corporation and third party sales still make the bulk of the revenue for both Xbox and PlayStation.
It's funny how the rest of Sony fucking hates SIE.
company would be in the red if not for their main source of income
Sad to say thaat a lot of the censorship in jap games is just the consequences of worldwide releases
Be small~ish studio
Make or re-release game with shit Westoids find inexcusable
Want westoid bucks AND homegrown bucks
Don't have the staff or dev time to make multiple versions
fuckit.jpeg
Release a single version pre censored with all languages so you only have to release once
On top of that, I'm pretty sure that some niggers like the Nep devs are definitely self sabotaging to a degree
Because there's no way Sony would give them preferential treatment and allow the bikinis while even Puritan Nintendo wouldn't when Sony isn't even giving the spotlight to fucking Kojima these days
When you get what is essentially over $8 billion in free money every year in zero risk, incomprehensible reward schemes just by being a financial go-between and are struggling to make $2 billion in profit, while your competitor who has none of these advantages considers it an off year if they only make $5 billion in profit? Yeah, that's a big deal.
So did they actually add the usual rising sun image to the spam filters?
tendies twisting everything out of context again
every thursday without fail
Yet they were not enough to make this AAA goyslop worth half a concord of money sell more than 2 million copies.
They're unhinged because the shitch poo is dropping preorders due to the 360p issue
incomprehensible reward schemes just by being a financial go-between
Commie argument. We are capitalists in here. Sony is Japanese, not North Korean.
it's the month before the biggest console release of the decade if not ever anon
nobody is going to be spending much money right now in japan when they are saving for the switch 2, launch titles, and what will drop afterwards
Clair Obscur did sell more than 2 million tho?
Not like they have any games to play, they have nothing else
Shitendo is fucked
hyped "indie" game is made by a turbo nepo-baby
Imagine my shock.
Switch 2 will become the ultimate grooming tool in Japan thanks to the in-game video chat.
True
So
What companies do you anons expect will immediately port over some PS4 shit to S2 in the following months?
I expect the full modern RE lineup from Capcom and if SNK is smart they'll port KoF and CotW pronto
I was sure the western release of Disgaea 7 Complete+ was in the cards for the launch window like they did with 5, but NIS seems to be asleep at the wheel
only usable with friends
Snoy samefagging again
Pathetic
None support for the shitch is at an all time low nobody has faith in it
immediately
It's not that easy to port between x86 to ARM. It requires some work so the first ones would be the ones with a strong incentive to do so.
Stellar Blade in the top 10 on Steam
Snoybros... our PS5 does kill sales.
At this point I subscribe into the anti-japan glowies theory because nothing else makes sense.
And mind you I thought it was schizo nonsense half a year ago.
Schitzophrenia is not necessary since there are tons of groups of people with a bone to pick with Nintendo. Disgruntled fans, Snoy fanboys, PC fanboys, people angry at Nintendo for killing emulators. The crazy thing is not expecting any backlash.
depends
westaboo kike cocksuckers like crapcom and SE have been lost causes for over a decade and will just double down on their anti-nintendo stance
single A but not quite indie devs like marvelous, CH, etc, that decided to chase kike AAA money are massive snoys that would rather die with the ship than go back to the consistent if modest ecchi game money
AA ones like KT/SEGA studios (with the exception of faglus) and shoestring budget ones like inti are largely mercenaries that don't give a shit where they release as long as there's money involved, and they will pretty much inherit the entirety of the JP vidya industry now that both the single A and AAA markets killed themselves trying to clean jew smegma with their tongues
Yeah fuck the retards on twitter and the games journos for killing emulators, and the greedy retards trying to charge money for the emulators giving nintendo a legal way to get at them
FF7: Rebirth was probably the final straw for SE.
his cope graph that openly says it lumps MTX and DLC shit in fails
he starts samefagging again
Reminder that switch also sells games digitally so the switch game sales are also much higher, meaning playstation still loses
SEGA
not drooling retards
they literally had a golden goose with PSO2 being popular and remaining a steady income stream thanks to people still buying cash shop stuff and they repeatedly tried to kill the game by putting a retard that openly admits he despises phantasy star in charge of the game more than once
Unironically, the moment Nintendo does something questionable, it's literally frothing at the mouth rage for months on end for some people suffering from NDS
There's still some faggots talking about Mario Kart being $90, because one fucking game urinalist on Twitter saw that Mario Kart was CHEAPER DIGITALLY in Europe/Japan, so clearly that means PHYSICAL GAMES ARE GOING TO BE MORE THAN WHAT THEY'RE SHOWING ON THE NINTENDO WEBSITE OMG
and capcom is one of the only ones that's actually successful at it.
were
past tense
monster hunter milds halfrice sold like dogshit
and now MH failed to cross the fabled 1m line
Per sony in the Insomniac leaks, the digital sales percentage of full games (that have a retail version) on ps5 is 35%. Globally. You can bet that in Japan, the country they still use fax machines in, it's even lower. The main reason switch has a higher digital share is both the voucher program, but also because of how often the switch is used on the train, having digital games means not needing to dig out your monster hunter rise cartridge from a bag and swap it out if you're on the train with people playing monhun.
Rainfall schizos
reminder the movement got hijacked by glowies pretending to be CHfags after said movement managed to rally enough people in japan to kill jeet-importing companies literally overnight
The PS3 really was the beginning of the end for Playstation in Japan.
Its disastrous launch gave Nintendo a chance to strike back with the Wii and the DS, and the cinematic 3rd person gaming approach put off Japan little by little.
Funnily enough, Nintendo is hard proof that you can be successful on both markets lol
Maybe a lot of Japanese companies still hate Nintendo due to them being ultra-Jews during the SNES era.
My YT shorts feed has been completely festered by grifters hyperbole about the Switch 2 being a new "Xbox One", one of them even claiming the fact that Switch 2 doesnt have VRR in docked mode at launch it is automatically a No Mans Sky at launch tier disaster, this was from a channel with well over 5 million subs btw, cant recall the name though but its a decently big one.
pilpul
Snoys already projecting their intentions.
And the reason they are seething they need a phone number to use it.
Lmao.
Nah the leaks showed the ratio varied from game to game quite a bit, and it was older info also.
most people even in japan are using UEslop now and similar DX based libraries
it will be as easy as telling the engine to export it with ARM flags
Handhelds and phones completely dominate in Japan, the problem was the VITA being a huge flop. The only thing that could bring back Sony is a handheld PS5 with tons of anime games.
That's likely the point anon, sega knows more than ever before how they were the kings of the world while only releasing in japan and then everything went to shit once they invited the kike demons.
Are you even remotely surprised yakuza started shifting again to japanese pandering after that massive shitshow? Or how they started to get people to make smaller games like unicorn overlord? And why they keep pulling on faglus' leash when they keep trying to bloat budgets and go full AAA while pandering to westoids?
Even the "we now don't localize, we change the original to match the english script" fucking died with the pirates game, we are back to 90% of the japanese audio not matching the EN subs.
Today I will remind them.
ironically enough most boomers alive during that era already bent the knee, most during the PS4 era too, even konami execs ended up kneeling
the only notable exception was iga, but even he ended up kneeling even if he covered it with "no bro we are simply releasing bloodstained on as many places as we can to please the fans :)"
the problem was the VITA being a huge flop
the vita wasnt a flop, it was actively murdered in cold blood by kikes at snoy
Sorry I was playing Mario Kart with my gf and forgot I had posted that. I bought Pokémon LGP, Mario Kart 8, Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 3, Super Mario Party Jamboree, botw and Luigi’s mansion 3. I mostly play rpgs, but I’m thinking of starting with Mario Odyssey cause it’s completely different from what I normally play but at the same time it looks fun. That or Luigi’s mansion since I love horror/paranormal themed stuff
Elaborate? I just know about price and flash cards.
No. Handheld or not doesn't matter. If PS5 had games nips wanted to play they would buy it in droves. Alas, it doesn't.
Oddysey is good just play that.
Mario Odyssey and Luigi's Mansion 3 sounds like fine games to try out.
The thing is even with the price and the proprietary sd cards people still bought it because it was the only place to get AA and single A JP games.
Off that alone it would have been more successful than the 3DS, and for a while it was which was why nintendo got scared and dropped the price of the 3DS.
Then the snoy backstabbing happened, mass exodus of devs happened, and the 3DS ended up on top.
Then to the surprise of absolutely nobody those devs not only decided to just release on the switch instead, but a lot decided to not even localize shit anymore.
Handheld or not doesn't matter
Pretty sure that's bullshit.
Not him, but vita carved out a decent niche for itself in japan. It was never going to be a psp 2, but it could have easily gone on to sell ~12 million in japan had playstation not fallen under increasing control of the american (californian) branch at the time, paving the way for playstation to move outside of japan entirely.
clubhouse games
I’m completely convinced these numbers are completely imaginary
Gaijins need to stop parroting the idea that only portable consoles matter in Japan when home consoles still remain a thing (with the Switch)
