Don't care. I'm still buying Switch 2. Get fucked, Steamie.

How does you wasting your money on overpriced underpowered garbage make me "get fucked" exactly?

I'll buy the Switch 2, but It looks like just to play Switch1 games.

source: saddam told me so in a dream.

Is odds aren't looking good the new mentally i'll?

He has all the odds. You have none.

Frankly, it's probably going to be the Wii U 2. Odds aren't looking good.

you tell us, since you purchased a steam deck.
Hope you spent that one year of relevance for $600 well anon

8 more years

I was talking to the son of a friend of mine. He's 14, likes Zelda, said he wants a Switch 2. He doesn't think his parents can afford to buy him one and if they did he won't be able to get that many games with them being $80. At that point I realised the console is almost exclusively made for adults. Either Nintendo isn't for kids these days, or the console is going to flop.

Either Nintendo isn't for poor kids these days, or the console is going to flop.

ftfy

eric are you ok? eric are you ok?
are you ok eric?

He's not okay, he still has 142 million dog dicks to suck

It’ll be successful selling, but the game key card and game pricing bullshit is going to be a huge hurdle in long term success

Still not canceling my preorder :) I know you want one so badly that you've been spreading FUD non-stop, but I'm not giving it up ;)

seeing physical media dying this slow death has been painful.
i'm gonna buy the switch 2 because my switch 1 broke and i still have a backlog to play, but it is likely the last modern console i will ever buy.

When I was 14 my parents "couldn't afford" to buy me a gamecube then two years later I got an after school job and started buying more video games than I could ever play.

Tell him to stop being poor and go flip burgers in McDonalds. When I was a kid I couldn't afford having more than 5 games for the SNES so I had to exchange or rent for more games and SNES was far from fucking expensive.

I told him he could get a part time job. I got the impression he didn't want to work and would rather play free to play mobile games if he had to work for one.

I don't care how big of a tendie you are, you're spending $500 on decade old technology. A PS5 slim is the same damn price. Nintendo has no excuse for pricing this thing above $300 and it certainly has no excuse for charging fucking $80 for bing bing wahoo shallow kiddieshit.

See you in 2 hours in the famitsu thread OP

Supplies and game prices will be the only issues.

As hardware, it's fine.
They're just making insane pricing choices and EVEN MORE INSANE weird software/cart/etc. choices that will fuck third party support.

At least it's not the "NEW 2DS LiteU" impossible to understand version and compatibility thing they used to do.

It's not the WiiU because I'm not able to fucking buy it.

lol I remember when the wii u launched I walked into a store on launch day and saw a few of them on the shelf. I was super surprised and confused that I could get one so easily on launch

the fact that the switch 2 is hard to get right now makes me pretty sure it won't be a wii u 2 situation

the switch 2 will have more exclusive games by this year's end than the ps5 has currently.

I'm buying 2 then
One for long range and one for short range

Generals aren't allowed on Anon Babble

This argument is a lose-lose because it DEFINITELY won't sell as good as the Switch 1 and it DEFINITELY won't sell as bad as the Wii U.

The seethe.

Frankly, OP's probably going to be the fag. Odds aren't looking good.

Good news, games aren't actually $80. You should tell your imaginary friend's son, he'll be so imaginary happy!

WiiU 2

It might fail but not on the scale of the WiiU.

The WiiU started as a complete marketing disaster from the get go with their retarded idea to just add some letters at the end of their new console like they did with every fucking version upgrade during that console generation and before so most people didn't even know it was a new.
Even the threads on Anon Babble, a place of nerds compared to the general market weren't sure on if it was a new console or a new controller since their whole fucking reveal trailer was just the controller with Wii-level games.

At least here most people know it's a new console.

Where do we think it will land boys?
I think if it gets a new smash and enough normie oriented PKMN games it could break at least 80M.

around switch numbers
might be a bit more, might be less

80-120 million is my guess

At least 100m, the Switch itself made a lot of Nintendo IPs more popular than they've ever been, and the slow-ass speed at which AAA games get made tends to make every Nintendo release a fairly significant one.

The WiiU also launched 13 years ago in a world that was not as terminally online as we are now. It won't fail if Nintendo just keeps making good games like they usually do

I think it's going to be worse than the wii-u because we can still play wii-u games, but by the time switch 2 is at the same point it will be a useless brick because it won't work without the servers

They will probably release later models with firmware updates that make them usable out of the box so this complete nonissue won't even matter.

I doubt it. Nintendo will want you to repurchase the games they took away from you on future consoles. they're extremely Jewish

Nintendo just keeps making good games like they usually do

Say what now??

should have launched with a handheld only lite version

Literally all consoles have been released with updated firmware until this point besides some chink knock off Polystations

Not even the Wii servers are down yet dumbass.

I'm getting the Switch 2 only go get Skyrim.
I don't wanna enrage Todd by not buying Skyrim on every platform available.
You should, too.

Max switch sales - 25 millions

Hell sometimes even games come with the firmware update required to play them on the disc/cart, right? I remember hearing that some switch roms could have their file size reduced by removing the update.

Huh? The Switch already sold 150 million. Look at the chart dumbass.

Wii U is awesome idiot
Bro thought he was cooking

retard can't do basic math

x - 25 = y

Since switch 2 runs and even improves the performance of switch 1 games, I don't see any reason not to upgrade to it.
It also stops the library being padded out with already available games from the last gen.
I'm so glad they have a shop that carries over purchases.

Compatibility VM doesn't seem to be perfect just yet so I wouldn't dispose of my old Switch if I wanted to play some third-party game.

Honestly I didn't realize that's what you were doing lol
I thought it was just weird pajeet formatting

The Wii U had games

erm source?

bros, why was the gamecube such a flop?
It was unironically the best system for multiplats

inb4 uh technically xbox was bett-

it was twice the cost for like 10% more power and only got 1/3rd the multiplats
Is it really just the PS2 having that many games and coming out first? lets be frank, the PS2 hardware was garbage by comparison.

erm source?

"had"

theyre all on the switch now.

It had such an amazing library of games if you were a Nintendo fan

Holy shit no wonder the Switch needed to be a hybrid so badly.
Handheld lifetime sales: 428m
Console lifetime sales: 277m

Snoyggers so desperate they make shitload of threads like these, hilarious

can't wait to see you crying here next month.

wasting your money on overpriced garbage

but enough about deck and pc gaming lol

poor kids

He thinks the probably is only with poor kids. Wages have stagnated with adults.

Global CEO pay increased by 50 percent since 2019, 56 times more than worker wages. Average CEO pay surged by 50 percent in real terms since 2019, while average worker wages increased by just 0.9 percent. Every hour, billionaires pocket more wealth than the average worker earns in an entire year.

So apparently I am a deck gamer, a snoy gamer, and a PC gamer. Interesting.

Is it still possible to download update data or purchased software?

For the foreseeable future, it is still possible to download update data and redownload purchased software and downloadable content from Nintendo eShop.

I was mostly convinced when they announced they were leaving behind the tying your account to a console gen thing but I'm not paying them top of the line prices for mid tech.

I don't want to pay 90 dollars for a piece of plastic that doesn't do the the thing I want it to do.

if it wasn't for paying customers, copedeck owners wouldn't have anything to play. Whatever bullshit opinion you have about nintendo they actually make games which makes them morally superior to pirates who have the same morality as niggers who go in to store and take shit because they don't want to pay.

he bought a switch 2 not a PC

switch 2 is going to break them

Add faggotnigger gamer to the list of things you are OP

You can still access all of your games retard.

preorders below 750k globally

panic behind the scenes

It's gonna be so much worse

clean your ears out gramps

but I'm not paying them top of the line prices for mid tech.

It's a perfectly reasonable price for a tablet. Obviously it would be shit for a normal large ass console but that's not what it is.

DS was a lot more successful in a way if you consider that it wasn't their sole console and they actually had something like competition with PSP.
It feels like gaming is still trying to recover back to PS2 days. Only the PC market really grew.

say the line, Bart!

It's going to be very hard to beat the Wii U in terms of being a failure. Even dedicated Tendies weren't sure it was a console the first year or so it was out, and the one gimmick that it had over the Wii was so fucking worthless games ended up either ignoring it or ritualistically conflagrating themselves to try and support it.
It cannot be overstated how truly worthless the board was.

Not without a day 1 patch :^)

I'm not interested in owning another tablet, I want a game console.

You didn't put me in the screenshot! You fucking cunts!

I want a game console.

...why?
The only reason to get one over a PC is for exclusives.

All the other replies are way too optimistic. Around 3DS sales is my prediction.

It will be under 10 million. Maybe even under 8.

Third worlders couldn't buy pirated copies like they could PS2 games. It's weird to me how people claim the gamecube was a failure and the xbox a success when the Xbox sold marginally better than the gamecube.

I think the Xbox thing just has to do with Xbox live being a really new thing, as well as it being an entirely new line of consoles. If some brand new console line came into the market now and did half as good as the PS5 it would blow my mind.

Gaming will never recover back to those days because it's more expensive than ever in a time of middle class erasure, the only way it could recover is via government gibs programs that give third world children free consoles and games or some shit

To add on, it will be the DS to 3DS situation again. The Switch was massively popular and still has millions of people perfectly happy with it, and while the Switch 2 is an upgrade that will be appreciated by the enthusiasts, it wont have mass appeal it needs to beat, tie, or even come close to the Switch 1 numbers. So, like how the Switch and DS are basically tied, the Switch 2 will tie with the 3DS.

Exactly and if you feel like you're standing up to get ripped off in order to get those exclusives then you'll want it less.

and if you feel like

I'm not your therapist

Nobody asked you to tell me I should consider the switch 2 to be a tablet, tendie.

But enough about the steam deck.

White people aren't having any problems getting it. You cry over third world problems.

I should consider the switch 2 to be a tablet

Retard it is PHYSICALLY a tablet. You wanting it to be a brick so you can afford bing bing wahoo doesn't magically make the parts cheaper.

WHAT ABOUT THE STEAM DECK?
STEAMIE OWNED

lol but you’re not even white you dumb larping nigger

I was there for the first Wii U launch. For a straight, this thing did not have games. It was a disaster the moment 3rd parties realized it wasn't remotely going to hit Wii numbers.

Its hard to tell when a Nintendo console is going to fail or become a great success because to me all their hardware is shit

I'm not actually required to own a Steam Deck to play Steam games. I have a laptop for steam that I can simply take with me that's far more powerful than any modern console.

Do you get paid spend your life advertising Switch 2 for free everyday?

Still seething and shitting herself every day.

lmao

gamecubes were like $100 at their cheapest brand new. you must have been in poverty, because it was the poor kids console in the early 2000s.

Xbox Series S

That dumbed-down budget console from 10 years ago?

Laptop

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Hey guys I paid $1000 for something more powerful than a $400 Switch 2.

Imagine my shock.

I think it was only $100 after it flopped in market.

They're also not having children

I actually got it for work, because it's a laptop. It can do things that aren't playing Bing Bing Wahoo or watching Netflix. So, it's really making me money.

who the fuck doesn't have a laptop already? tendies think real adults are doing CAD work in mario maker.

There is no indication of the Switch 2 failing.

The Wii U failed, because it was too gimickey and the generational lleap was too small. Not to mention that none of Nintendo's mobile consoles have ever failed either.

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

Wonder if third parties are gonna dip out too when they realize this isn't gonna hit switch 2 numbers, especially if people refuse to buy game key cards

Waiting for the ecelebs to tell me what to think. OP is a fag tho

How many games will you be able to play on the switch 2? Wanna know how many you can play on a laptop?

PS2 was always the poor kid console, gamecube couldn't even sell at that price because

no dvd player

no piracy

no gta

It's that simple

muh laptop

This was a laughable argument for Switch 1. Even more laughable for Switch 2.

muh laptop

KEK

Mind showing us the specs of that laptop and your games?

Frankly, you are a 'caco who is looking like he gets raped and quite possibly also gaped

rape mentioned

What did he mean by this?

. A PS5 slim is the same damn price

Who would spend $500 on decade old technology like a PS5?

Laptops aren’t Switch competitors. If laptops were competitors then the Deck would’ve flopped.

I like having my Switch to play Nintendo games and my computer to play everything else :)

My parents bought me PS2 because it "it's a DVD player y'know!" I never even asked for it and I wanted GC.

I was thinking it won’t be until I realized there’s a chance all three of these franchises might not make it within the first few years

It's going to sell because of switch 1 hype, but honestly I'm someone who does pre sale alerts and always gets every system early, I didn't give a fuck.

Before details were announced I thought I could just carry everything over to 2 and get a cpu boost. Now it seems like they are selling upgrades or selectively choosing backwards compatibility. Rather than fuck with it and look up every game I have to see if it'll work, I'll wait and get it later.

DK and Mario kart look lame, I expected PS4 level graphics finally, but it doesn't look like next gen graphics, yet they are charging next gen prices. I got money so 80$ is nothing, but it better look as good as it can look, it's not even on PS4 nintendo clone level. Nintendo squeezed every drop out of switch 1 power, so I don't know wtf happened.

Why would you buy this if you already own the Switch?
Everything is way too fucking expensive now, and old vidya is better than new vidya anyways.

Odds aren't looking good I'll get one I should have preordered.

Nobody said anything about hardcore fans buying it. Delusional retard.

I should have preordered.

no you should stop being a weak willed faggot.
You dont NEED it, you dont NEED to get it day 1.
You are paying the most for the worst version of the system and games.
if youre that weak then yes, shouldve pre-ordered it. That makes you a retard if you are this desperate but didnt lock it in. But ultimately, you need a mentality change.
in 2 years will you remember the 3 week wait?

no you should stop being a weak willed faggot.

I got the money and I want it now.

You dont NEED it, you dont NEED to get it day 1.

Spend almost all of my free time gaming. I don't need to post on Anon Babble yet I do. I don't need to own an AC, I also don't really need to own a car.

You are paying the most for the worst version of the system and games.

Realistically I'll be probably paying less how prices are going because if tariffs actually hit the US, Nintendo isn't going to raise prices by 100% in the US it's going to raise them everywhere by 25%

if youre that weak then yes, shouldve pre-ordered it. That makes you a retard if you are this desperate but didnt lock it in. But ultimately, you need a mentality change.

I worked very hard and long so I wouldn't need a mentality change when I can fix shit with you guessed it! Money.

in 2 years will you remember the 3 week wait?

Sure, as I've said I spend most of my time gaming. I remember the days I begged my mom to buy me a Duron 700 with a TNT2 Riva 32 MB while I was on a Pentium 1 MMX 233Mhz with 96 MB of RAM consisting of 16+32+64 sticks with a S3 Virge 2MB card because I coudn't play Tony Haws Proskater 2 and I had to play Half Life 1 in Software mode. I remember that the TNT2 Riva couldn't run CnC Generals so I had to wait a whole 12 months to get a new PC in form of a P4 1.7 Ghz Prescott Core with a Radeon 9000 PRO I should have waited a few months I could have gotten an Nvidia 6600 for tha same price.

So yeah, I will remember it as wow I went around town asking for it and it wasn't there.

I actually remember these things because I care about them.

I grew up dirt poor and gamin was the number 1 thing in my life. Still is and will be. You rich fags have no idea how much I have worked to be able to just buy all the gaming shit you consider trivial or worthless. And holy fuck is it enjoyable.

godspeed either way anon

Wanna know how many you can play on a laptop?

Wanna know how many can I play on my switch?

What’s with Japanese execs? The missteps with this have been SEGA of Japan level incompetent. The pricing is absurd and for a company that sits on finished games for years, there’s nothing in the launch window unless you like bing bing wahoo.

This is the first time I can recall seeing Nintendo fans not pretend to be idorts and acting as though a Nintendo console is good enough to stand on its own. For their sake I hope they're right or else Anon Babble is going to tear into their assholes for a decade after this. It'll be interesting to see what happens. I personally think the marketing is full of shit and that multiplatforms will continue to run like ass, but will be happily surprised if I'm wrong.

good, can't wait to enjoy my hidden gems

mike-feels-great.webp

The massive amount of seething the switch 2 is causing is fucking orgasmic.

More than the Gameboy less than the Switch 1

Wii U 2

Nothing will ever flop as hard as the Wii U. Nintendo courted a non-gaming audiences and when they didn't pander specifically to them, they bounced.

But the Switch 2 is going to underperform. Look at Anon Babble. The most threads its gotten were

Before and right after the April Direct

Loli Pauline

Outside of that, there hasn't been discussion about the thing and it comes out in a fucking week. The system has no where near the interest that the Switch 1 had. In fact, its a lot of apathy.

And I don't think Nintendo is ready for the reality of $70 games either. Almost every single $70 release has either been a massive flop or was from a very successful $60 game and sold significantly less. Spider Man sold 20 million and the sequel sold like 11. Monster Hunter World sold over 20 million and Wild sold 10. Pretty much every breakout success of the last few years has been $60 or under. Same holds true for Nintendo. I wouldn't be surprised if Mario Kart World's sales take a nosedive after the bundle runs out. They are making the same mistake EA made and thinking people will just come out because "It's Mario Kart." Give it a year and I could see similar conversations from investors putting stuff on PC/Steam. Sony and Microsoft did it already and they did it for the exact same reason

no new Zelda game

Sony still reeling from Concord and 14 other live service cancellations/flops

About to be nuked by Marathon mega flopping, possibly even worse than Concord in terms of budget vs profit if you consider Sony buying Bungie for 3 billion.

Microsoft is being Microsoft as usual.

Nintendo is going to win by doing nothing/the bare minimum as usual.

Lmao if this shithole was indicative of anything the original Switch would have done even worse than the Wii U.

Consoomers get a dopamine hit from spending money, they HAVE to get their fix at the soonest possible opportunity.

It's getting skyrim? brb preordering

I certainly hope so. I'd like to think that, from the perspective of a parent, there's little to no reason to get their child a Switch 2 over a Switch. Maybe the difference is so negligible that you could actually pass off the Switch as the Switch 2 to your kid lol

It's selling out everywhere. The hype is real

It's easy to sell out everywhere when they artificially limit units

I'm buying a Switch 2 and there's nothing Steam keks or Snoys can do about it! Gonna be a mall rat with my Switch Lite on the 4th waiting for an EBgames ticket for 9pm.

The Wii U sold out too.

It's a watershed moment. Most parents are not going to shell out for a console 2x the cost of Switch 1 just to keep their kids from whining, so its success depends mostly on whether adult fans buy it or not.

The ps5 doesnt have decade old technology and it's also sold 80 million units

Seethe. More. You fat. ugly. Retarded. PC. Fattie.

Not even you believe in this

Buying Bungie for 3 FUCKING billion

PS5 is my main platform and I love the thing, but I will not laugh at this. (I only seethe about when I remember that Bungie killed Factions.)

Millennials will absolutely buy it.

it also doesnt have games

I will never not laugh at this*

It's got 5000+ and counting you dumb meme spouting NPC nigger.

Obsessed.

Bellow switch 120 mi

I don't think there are enough manchildren to make it a success on their own, normies parents are Nintendo's bread and butter and they absolutely need to be on board for it to not be a failure.

It will outsell the Wii U by the end of the year if it hasn't already

switch 2 emulator already booting up with over a week before launch

can't play games yet, but the boot is the difficult part, will possibly be as soon as later today

IT'S OVER

Sony brand loyalty is a disease, sad really. I promise I won't laugh too much when you inevitably jump ship.

This is a developer account.

correct, when you take a shit all over the customer you shouldnt arrogantly expect money from them

Steamie

fuck you Indian subhuman

also on PC later*

It having no real backwards compatibility for switch games really kills it for me.

Not really, most millennials have kids and aren't acting like them themselves.

It emulates Switch 1 games so they will probably run worse than on Switch 1.

PC gaming is trash

Every game with the exception of about 10 is backwards compatible.
Those are because of either a peripheral that won't work such as Ring Fir or because a Switch 2 version is planned anyway.

bricked by design

Of course, how brilliant Nintendo, you’ve outsmarted me again!!

that's fine, everyone bought the switch to play wii u games

what does that make PS then? month old trash?

Yeah really. That demographics chart of people who owned a Switch showed a significant chunk of owners being between the ages of 25 and 34. Millennials largely buy this garbage.

yea

you’ve outsmarted me again!!

doesnt take much

PC gaming is dog shit trash and 90% of pc players have a rig that's weaker than a PS5 and especially the ps5 pro

pppp.png - 1119x609, 349.02K

guess i'm just better than 90% of pc players and 100% of ps5 players

Yeah enjoy my scraps, baby.

Consoletard is coping hard, it doesn't matter if there's shovelware since we don't have to play it. What matters is how many good games there are.

defeatist

Someone saying that would only be a defeatist if he's a tendie himself, why assume he is?

The first one didn't have just toddler games

That's all it had and all Nintendo is. Why do you think they're derided constantly as manchildren? Nintendo is for kids.

if Bayo 2 is for kids, why were sonyroaches seething that it wasnt on PS4?

Xenoblade

Fire Emblem

third party games like Unicorn Overlord

None of these are on Switch 2 yet and it's questionable whether they will be, all we've seen so far are games for babies.

it is questionable whether fire emblem will get a game on the nintendo handheld

Engage kind of seems like it killed the franchise.

Comfortably above 100 million. Where it will ultimately end up depends on the price development, world economics, etc.

Also where the Switch 1 will end up. If the Switch 1 gets a STEEP discount and Nintendo starts to flood SEA and Africa with it, I could se the Switch 1 settle at the 200 million in the end.

you're not better than anyone, you're a fat ugly greasy PC nerd. You're not even worth the dirt on a ps5 player's shoes.

I love how this retard PC fattie doesn't mention his PC fattie brethren posting shovelware from the sony store

There's really no games, I just want to play stuff I have on Switch 1 but with an fps boost but it looks like it cant even do that without you paying for an upgrade on the game. I have one preordered too and have no idea why

I'm a gamer so I get whatever I like because it'll have games I want to play, I own a gaming PC with a 4090, a Steam Deck, and I'll be getting a Switch 2.

I don't understand why would you buy this piece of shit where you can only play 80 dollar mario asset-flips instead of a Steam Deck that gives you a basically endless libarary of games even for free if you are not a buycuck, also you can emulate basically the entire Nintendo library at this point

cuz i want to

say the Switch 2 is going to be a failure

300+ guaranteed replies from butthurt tendies

It's going to be a 3DS situation:

successor to a 150+ million sales handheld

comes in way overpriced and substantially more than its predecessor

launch lineup is missing Mario/Zelda

The Switch 2 will sell less than the Switch 1 but it will still sell more than 50 million, maybe closer to 100-120 million if Nintendo cuts the price and starts pumping out actual games for it

there is no time prior to the switch where having zelda as a launch title significantly impacted sales

twilight princess

Wii

Wii Sports

did not impact sales, the wii sold gangbusters entirely on the back of wii sports and you know it

made a Nintendo webm for this

Lmao, sad

Lmao, snoys are full cope mode the closer we get to the release of the Switch 2

the ps5 has sold 80 million units so far, it's doing great and what a majority of gamers play on

only fat greasy nerds like you game on pc

fdf.png - 1002x527, 482.21K

it's doing great

with Concord being a disaster and marathon following it? not likely

the ps5 has sold 80 million units so far

Where did you hear that/

his uncle who works at snoytendo

xbox naming strikes again!

Game Boy & Game Boy Color

that's cheating

What games do you think will be announced at the June Direct Anon Babble?

The same leaker who claimed that Ubisoft were working on a remake of a Rayman game (which Ubisoft later confirmed) said Nintendo approached various third parties to port some games to keep supporting the Switch 1. The leaker said one of these games is Rayman 3 so we'll probably see a Rayman 3 switch port announced

3DS is the best comparison. There just isn't that much interest in the thing and I think people neglect how much high prices for games are causing a sort of apathy. Softwares are going to be bad for this thing much like they are for the PS5.

That webm has been around since ToTK leaked.

That's with COVID and chip shortages too. The PS5 is doing extremely well and this makes pc fatties seethe and froth at the mouth

Above the Wii but below the GameBoy. Wii seems low in retrospect. I remember EVERYONE using one, families games together, and even businesses utilized them. What do you mean it sold less than the GameBoy?

oh, covid, yeah, that definitely hurt video game sales, lmao

I'm a PChad, I just posted that because I get tired of tendies living in alternative realities where the PS5 is some kind of failure

i mean, it's weird to merge the sales of two handhelds that released a decade apart imo, the wii certainly did outsell the GB and GBC individually

You’re out of your mind if you think a 10 - 20 dollar difference for one game every once in a while means much. I was poor as shit growing up and my parents would always buy one game on special occasions or when I got a good grade.
Then again, you probably ARE out of your mind since you made up a friend and made up his 14 year old son too.

Release PS5 with only 2 games on it after 5 years

It does well

Nintendo releases Switch 2 with more games than PS5's library mentioned in the first direct

Wtf it's just another Switch? It's so over for Nintendo, not buying this

I'll never understand people

so i own a gaming pc and i pre-odered a switch 2. Is it just a money thing with the people who hate PCs and the NS2? like are they poor or something?

I was poor as shit growing up and my parents would always buy one game on special occasions or when I got a good grade.

no way, you're telling me that poor people are bad with money and waste money on unnecessary purchases?

the melanin enhanced are not people

Tbf the GBC is more like a pro version of the console than an actual successor. Very few GBC games didn't work with a GB.

it won't impact switch 2 sales but i expect Nintendo's first party games to sell less than the previous generation
people will spend money only on stuff they REALLY care about, see animal crossing or mario kart

buying a PS5

It’s hilarious how, if you had a PS4 and skipped the PS5, you haven’t missed a single thing. With talks of the PS6 already, anybody buying one at this point is retarded.
With a Switch 2, you’re guaranteed exclusive games for years to come.

Timeframe. The GBA was out forever but the Wii sold most of its units in its first 3-4 years. It's the same reason the Switch is at almost 150M. Its been on the market for over 8 years at this point.

Switch is past 150M now

nobody felt like they were buying a pro version, though. as a kid the color was very clearly the next gen of the gameboy, and the buying patterns reflected that. part of the reason that sales number is so high is because people bought both

the 3ds launch lineup was absolute garbage and it was overpriced for it's specs
the switch 2 is the cheapest handheld that can run games like cyberpunk at the graphic level it does and it comes with mario kart, one of the best selling games in history

Nintendo + Sony is the kino patrician combo. Sony and nintendo players should team up against the retard pc fatties here

Doesn't matter how people felt about it, the GB to GBC is practically the same hardware jump as 3DS to N3DS.

Nah, you clearly haven’t been paying attention to how they’re pricing things.
The only ones to sell for $80 are going to be the games with guaranteed millions of sales like Mario Kart, Smash, and maybe a 3D Mario.
You’re also really underestimating how easy it is for people to spend money.

I had a PS4 but I have 0 desire to buy a PS5. I've outgrown my idort ways

i mean, there's no strict definition of "console generation", it's based on the context of the discussion. in terms of sales numbers, especially when making predictions about the sales of future consoles, it's far more useful to discuss them in terms of how they were perceived in the zeitgeist, because that's what influences sales numbers, not the technological jumps

Definitions and categories can change over time. I was a GBC kid growing up and used to consider it a successor, but now in retrospect it was mostly just a GameBoy with a color effect and didn't have enough exclusives for it to be considered a real successor. If we can't consider the N3DS as the successor to the 3DS despite having its own pool of games, then GBC shouldn't count either.

says increasingly nervous man for the 1000th time

the more threads I post, the more true it becomes

When are you going to kill yourself?

Sure, that's fine, but I am saying that for the specific question of "how well did this sell versus its siblings" it makes more sense to use the perception of buyers at the time than anything else. It's not normal for a large percentage of an installbase to purchase the pro version of some hardware

lmao pc fatties are deranged delusional idiots

faggot troonsame

So you admit to spamming these threads enough to receive all these accusations

I'd rather buy 8 atari jaguars than buy a playstation past the PS2

the thing about price hikes is that even if consumers are willing to pay them, it necessarily reduces the amount of disposable income they have to spend on other titles and consolidates the market further
surely that sounds good to some executives somewhere but in practice it will hurt the industry overall
either smaller studios will suffer or consumers won't take the bait and it's the big ones who do

5000+

Is this like those old 128 games in 1 deal where it's all games nobody wants?

If I'm going to spend $500 on decade old technology, I'll go for the one that has more than 3 exclusives on it.

No one cares that you have colossally terrible taste pc fattie

99% of games that are on PC can be played on ps5. no one needs a pc for gaming anymore

Im only buying it to play Nintendo Exclusives that I can't get on my PC. I have a 7900XTX right now so anything that won't play at least at 60fps on the switch2 I'll get on PC as I always have. However, the exclusives like Duskbloods I won't be able to play on anything except Nintendos platform so it is worth it. Exclusives move hardware, I don't know why Sony and Microsoft forgot this simple fact.

Based and this.

Poor whites seething. My brown hands typed this and are picking up the thing you cannot afford

also you can emulate basically the entire Nintendo library at this point

Hahaha, no you can't. You can't even emulate switch 1 games properly on the dreck, so forget about the switch 2, which is more powerful than the dreck.

the ps5 doesn't have decade old tech you lying retard, and 90% of pc players have a rig thats weaker than a ps5 anyway you stupid retard lmao

The Wii U is one of Nintendos' only good consoles, so this is a good thing.

They need to bring back Miiverse. Being able to talk to people who actually played the game was much better than people who would just jump in a conversation saying how a game is shit despite never even playing it.

I wonder what he's up to.

Its going to be GBA or 3DS 2 if we are being objective and not niggering around like youtube grifters are deluding themselves to be

Colosseum and Gale of Darkness weren't mainline

What mainline pokemon game on was the GC?? I don't remember any?

ZOOMER DETECTED

talk about how Concord sucks when they didn't even play it!

of course they didnt, it was such a failure that sony refunded all copies and shut it down

You battle turn-based, you can catch Pokémon, it has a campaign. Seems pretty mainline to me.

Remember when Gamefreak tried to pass LGPE off as mainline? Colosseum has more similarities with a mainline game, but Gamefreak won't count it because they didn't make it themselves. Very egotistical of them.

Are there any first party games other than Mario Kart and Donkey Kong being released in 2025?
That might actually hurt it like we saw with the 3DS.

PC Keks need to spend $4000 on a 5090 just to play games we've played 5 years ago on PS5. You can't make it up!

Nintendo needs to learn their lesson somehow. The bootlickers are getting desperate

If they do anything centered on 3 Houses it will sell like hotcakes

I don't think so.
Not sure if it'll sell as well as the original Switch. I think it will still be a successful console.

I hate Nintendo. They were treating FE like one of their top 3 pillars and went all in during the 3DS era, but one fumble is enough for them to lose faith in an entire franchise. We should've gotten remakes of Genealogy of the Holy War, PoR and RD by now.

crying about anime on any board

How many times were you dropped on your head? It wasn't nearly enough apparently.

Unironically why did wii u flop so hard? Was it really just boomer retards not able to tell it was a new console?

The specs are barely better than the 1, why even make a new console? They'd make more letting the original continue to dominate and sell new games

The WiiU was a good console, and I'm tired of people predending it was not. The WiiU is clearly superior to the Switch in everyway. On the other hand, the Switch is the worst Nintendo console of all times after the Virtual Boy.

The specs are barely better than the 1

What makes you say this?

The only reason I'm planning on grabbing one at some point in the future is to replace the switch, only the precedent that they are updating the performance of the xenoblade games. Which are unacceptably piss poor outside of the X remaster. I don't give a rat's ass about mario or zelda or donky cong nonsense.

tendies unironically think you are required to own a Steam deck to play Steam games

Can't make this shit up

$500 + $80 games + tax + tip + tariff

to play a remaster

Bruh just torrent

The WiiU is clearly superior to the Switch in everyway

Switch didn't let me play anywhere I liked to in my house with ease, but it definitely was better in every other regard. Almost every Switch must have is a Wii U port, and it's just not comfy to hold for long periods. The Wii U gamepad had grips, and was very comfy to hold despite its appearance. I slightly remember the hand cramps I'd get when I bought the switch and had to transition to a very flat surface. I still get those hand cramps, but it's after an hour of playing.

Waiting for hacks

They run like ass even on good hardware

Couldn't tell you. I always played the WiiU on the TV. Never saw a use for the portability.

Nintendies can't comprehend not needing to buy a brand new paperweight for every single game thry want

they didn't kill the franchise or anything close to it, they saw with engage's performance people wanted a break from it so they're giving people one

they're still featuring it prominently in nintendo today and other places so they'll probably announce one of those ports they have done already sooner than later

You do know most of the time hacks need a system on an old firmware or early hardware revision, right? If you want hacks you should be trying to get a launch unit.

Good. Nintendo as much as I love them have been riding a fucking high horse for a while now and need a reality check with their awful anti consumer practices.

Yeah. I worked at a gamestop when it came out and there were still people coming in and asking if it was an attachment for their Wii up until the Switch came out

Steam Deck can play millions of games how is that bad tendie?

Nobody seriously expects this thing to flop. Nintendo is still the most accessible option for people who just wanna play games.

450 bucks is cheaper than a 550 PS5.
XBOX is still dead.
Building a PC is way more expensive.
And something like a Steamdeck is only really appealing if you already got a PC library to access - and if you got that you probably already own a semi-decent PC to begin with.
Nintendo handhelds - and like 70% play Switch in handheld mode - have always been successful. Some less than others - but there is no actual flop there unlike with their home systems.

For those who think Nintendo is gonna fail - ask yourself - where else will those buyers go if not for Nintendo? There aren't a lot of options.

marketing aka couldn't tell if it was a peripheral or not

Normie population they captured with the DS/Wii moved on to Mobile + iPad gaming

Nintendo was the laughing stock of the industry so Developers would ignore them and the journalists would twist everything to be way worse than it really is.

Disenfranchised the core gamer demographic so had no trust or goodwill to help counter the industry bias

Nintendo fanboy population isn't enough to sustain a console

Nintendo's first foray into HD development so they struggled a lot

Also had the 3DS eating precious development manpower

Off the top of my head.

fpbp

Nintendo home consoles generally didn't sell all that well. The NES was a massive hit but the SNES already had declining sales - despite winning the war against SEGA.
N64? Flopped in EU and Japan - only the US market had a decent playerbase but even there it lost againts the PS1.
Gamecube? Lost against the PS2 and depending on the region even XBOX - 3rd place only beating the Dreamcast.
The only actual exception is the Wii and that only because it became a viral sensation with every boomer grandma wanting one so she can play bowling and tennis in her living room a few times before getting bored.
The Wii U flopping wasn't Nintendo fucking up - it was a return to the norm. And after the Wii U Nintendo simply realized that home system are simply not a good option for them anymore. Unless they somehow land a big surprise hit there is no way home console users will choose them over the competition. But handhelds? Those always worked. The Switch being a hybrid was them throwing a bone to the small dedicated home console userbase they had. But that's all there is - a very small minority. There is a reason we have a handheld-mode only Switch but no "dock only Switch"

People are expecting it to flop because it's too expensive. Remember if it doesn't track to sell the same of more than the Switch is going to be considered a flop and because Nintendo shit doesn't drop in price whatever trends early in it's gen will be how the console will do for it's lifetime. The market is watching.

forced seethe by snoys
Im getting mine too

Because it was poorly marketed, full of shovelware, and plagued top to bottom with dumb design choices.

Being more expensive is only an issue if you are more expensive than the competition. There is no scenario in which people will stop playing games in general.
The average console player doesn't buy that many games to begin with.

dad who buys his son a console so he can later play like 3 Pokemon games

the uncle who owns a 3DS just so he can play Tetris and Brain Training

all those people who only own Animal Crossing or Mario Kart and basically nothng else

Those are the backbone of Nintendo. And it's not like the Switch 2 is extremely more expensive than expected. Most assumed it would be around 400 bucks. With 450 it's only slightly above the expected price.
And 80 dollar games? Again: Only an issue if you buy a lot of them. Which isn't something a lot of people do.

a modded Wii / WiiU console is very cheap and comes with games and emulators.

The delicious tears of denial and copium. I'll see you at retail price tendie lmao

Dude, i don't give a shit. I mostly play on PC and only own a Switch cause the Steamdeck is too early for me. Others can playtest those PC handhelds for me.

What i am saying is basic logic. NIntendo will keep winning as long as Sony remains more expensive. As far as numbers go they are already in the lead with Nintendo having 2 million in Japan alone just applying for the "chance" to "buy" a Switch 2 - and they expect to sell over a million Switch 2 models there in just the first week. The thing is also selling out in Europe and the Americas in most regions. If that momentum holds will entirely depend on Nintendo and their software releases. But again: It's not like people have options right now. Those with money buy everything or a PC and those who want the cheapest current generation gaming minimum go with Nintendo.

Enjoy your 3 exclusives faggot. I'll keep enjoying my PC and Switch 2.
Once homebrew allows me to play Astros Bot for PS5 I'll get it out of the closet. Assuming it doesn't come to PC first, kek.

PC gaming is dog shit slop for greasy nerds

99% of games that are on PC can be played on PS5. No one games on PC except retards. PS5 + Switch 2 is the patrician combo.

A shitty PC not that much more expensive than the Switch 2 can run Switch games better than the Switch. Nobody but you is talking about Sony. We are talking about the Switch 2 and everyone is expecting it to be the WiiU2. Playstation just live RENT FREE in your mind. Early sales are die hard tendies so these early sales won't count after at least 6 months then we will see how it does.
pcpartpicker.com/list/YkkqyW

i couldn't find a preorder bros

how much am i looking to pay scalpers?

my limit is around 700

Weird to post that when all Sony does is shill it's lowbrow capeshit garbage is if anything on that genre is meant for anything above the most bottom of the barrel pissant.

Is it really going to kill you to wait 4-6 weeks to pick one up? That is unless you get lucky before hand?

The Wii U flopped because Nintendo doesn't have much of a homesystem fanbase in general and because nobody cared about the tablet gimmick - in fact most hated it. If you remove the gimmick the Wii U is just a console weaker than both XBONE and PS4 which made it obviously the worst choice one could possibly make.
The Switch 2 meanwhile is just what people expected the Switch Pro to be - more of the same with better hardware.

You suck and you lost pc fattie. pc gaming is a joke.

Only genuine retards game on PC. Have fun spending 4000 dollars on a 5090 to play shovelware slop and a game that the ps5 gets before you

The WiiU was a Wii with better hardware and a tablet and it still failed despite having the Wii branding as a name. The pattern predicting the Switch2 failure is there.

suffering deck derangement syndrome

Let's clear up some misconceptions about the Steam Deck.

it barely outsold the n-gage!

Now compare the Deck to other PC handhelds and you realise it dominates the (very niche) market. Why are tendiesnoys crying about sales when the Gamecube exists? Are they just hypocrites? Also, Valve clearly sees the Steam Deck as a live experiment. Sales are second to SteamOS and Proton development.

but it's weak!

Handhelds are always behind home hardware. Steam Deck is a 1050ti with a Steam Controller bolted on. Also the Legion and Ally are there and you can install SteamOS on them if you really need to play post-2020 AAA, and if you want to avoid raping your battery, Moonlight exists.

but you don't own your games!

You don't have to buy a single game on Steam. You can install DRM-FREE software from GoG/itch.io/DLsite/torrents.

but Nintendo games!

Obviously Nintendo hardware is going to be backed by Nintendo games. It's their only unique selling point. I don't expect to ever run Mario Kart World on the Steam Deck, ever. But you know what I will play? Everything else. Even Deck Verified alone shits all over the eShop, and don't get me started on PC exclusives that you can play with the minute it takes to set a Proton version. Emudeck mogs NSO emulation so much it's not even fucking funny, and you can game knowing that Valve won't steal your games like Nintendo did with the Virtual Console.

but the resolution!

800p is perfectly acceptable when a screen is 7.4 inches. Plus higher resolutions will strangle the battery, which is something that you don't want for a portable device.

but Linux!

Valve fixed it with Proton. Also, Windows 10 is about to die. FUCK 11.

you're a jeet shilling!

The Steam Deck is LITERALLY SOLD IN FIRST WORLD NATIONS ONLY. Meanwhile Indians line up for Switch 2 as we speak.

Are there any more arguments? Or can we all agree the Steam Deck is based and the final solution to the console problem?

Again: The Wii only succeeded because it was a flavour of the year system for pensioners. If not for the old people the console would have flopped just like the Gamecube and N64

So why is it okay for Xbox and PlayStation to have a consistent brand name, but it's not okay when Nintendo does it? Nintendo was even trying to streamline their stuff with having game at the front like GameBoy and GameCube, but ditched it when they came out with the Wii.

you're just being disingenuous. Wii was exciting for people because people never experienced motion controls before, and it was the only console to truly become a "family gaming system". It's actually surprising how quickly people forgot about it, and you have adults who never even got to experience it but nobody is trying to revive the motion control sensation.

The Wii U failed for a multitude of other reasons.
The branding excuse is a mental diversion at best and midwit macaco reductionism at worst.

This. The Wii U was missing all of the big hits while 3DS was getting all of the love, and Nintendo did this because of the tsunami from 2011. They only had the resources to really focus on one system, and Wii U was neglected as a result. The only Mario title we got was another NSMB and people were tired of it by then, and sandbox games like Mario Maker seem fun in concept, but the lack of professionally made levels becomes apparent. There was no FE, no Animal Crossing, Zelda didn't come out until the Switch released, no Metroid. The good games like Mario Kart 8, Sm4sh, and the like were very excellent games, but they were between very large droughts. The Wii U is why I went from only owning Nintendo consoles to owning both a PlayStation and a Switch. I don't feel the sting of droughts any longer.

what is inflation?

god damn the first couple years of 3ds were dire

Must be rough. Should I pray for you?

Hey fixed ur pic

GBA/3DS, since Switch will cannibalize sales from Switch 2 due to backwards compatibility

What you're talking of is forwards compatibility since Switch can play some Switch 2 games. I know, confusing.

>but you don't own your games!

You don't have to buy a single game on Steam. You can install DRM-FREE software from GoG/itch.io/DLsite/torrents.

READ NIGGA! READ!

Rather, people will keep making Switch 1 games and port them to 2, thus keeping Switch 2 less relevant. Just like how no one gives a rat's ass about PS5 because you can play almost all of its games on much cheaper PS4

This. Fpbp.

PS5 only has two games yet somehow it found an 80 million install base. Normies are retards.

but you don't own your games!

Correct. You don't own games purchased through any PC storefront.

spend $500

to own a console with no games

Why would I do this? Especially since I own a PC. Do you think I’m retarded like you?

Desperately astroturfing on Anon Babble

Yep, it's dead.

It wasn't the best system for multiplats. The only thing it had was raw power. The weird half-measure of those mini-discs meant it was more expensive to manufacture games, which had to be more compressed than PS2 games, and likely split into two discs. None of which was a deal breaker, but all just a headache for a system that was a year behind in install base and not likely to catch up considering its lack of a DVD player which made it a significantly more appealing console for families, meaning it was beating out Nintendo in family appeal as well as the mature audience, having already established mature games like MGS.
Also, the controller having less buttons probably disincentivized ports even more, but that's just speculation on my part.

posted it again award

email doko...

meant for

It's so funny that people are still arguing about owning games when they talk about those Switch flash carts. Day 1 patches have been a thing for more than 10 years now. It's the same level of retardation of people freaking out that a modded Switch 2 will get bricked... when Nintendo has been doing that for years too.

For what it's worth, my friend (his dad) is gonna buy a switch 2 for himself. He's just not gonna let his kids touch it nor buy his kids one. It's midly amusing cuz all of his kids have their own switch. All of my nieces and nephews have their own switch.

I don't want to read, I want to be a dishonest troll until the thread dies.

DMR has nothing to do with owning property.

God I hope so, Fuck Nintendo

Probably best not to read that trolls propaganda.

data on a hard drive

:/

data (encrypted and for a locked down device) on a bing bing wahoo cartridge

:O

but i can resell it for a tiny fraction of the MSRP!

Why would you need to resell them?

I already made it obvious I didn't read it in my first reply.

Pensioners really liked Mario Kart

Yeah but the last switch was like a year or two before they made patched release versions, and several months after the hack was discovered did they correct it. Usually it's like that

No tendies even tried to argue

You really shut those retards up they scrolled right past the post and either can't read or knew they were outclassed.

I have a 5-year-old son and I'll probably be picking one of these up for Christmas honestly, but I wish it had an OLED screen.

schizobabble

Speak like an adult please.

That's for the incremental scam upgrade kek. Pay up piggie

Yes I ignored you. Should I apologize?

More or less. WiiU was a massive fucking failure but the switch 2 will probably be alright, it just wont sell as well as the switch one because of the price increase which filters most poorfags. they will eventually release a cheaper version of it I am sure.

tiny fraction of the MSRP

It's a Nintendo console game, not a forgettable PC game or PS4 movie.

it won't work without the servers

YOU
DENSE
MOTHERFUCKER

OLEDs can't into VRR because of bad flicker issues. I think Asus has a solution in a gaming laptop, but it's very expensive iirc. Something like a Steam Deck circumvents this by not having VRR but instead multiple static refresh rates. On the other hand, the VRR on the Switch will smooth out frametime variations between 30-60 FPS, but I'd imagine most games would try and go for a locked 40 FPS (which is more than acceptable handheld)

No offense but this is just one of the most uninformed retarded posts I've read today. Monster Hunter World came out in 2018 and had a major expansion a year later. MH Wild came out THIS year, and already has half the amount of sales. It got 10 million units in a month. To act like it's sold less, because it's only achieved 10 million sales in a month, is obviously dishonest.
Furthermore, BOTW which came out in 2017 and sold 32m, was followed up by TOTK at $70 and released only two years ago to 20m sales, which is likely to expand with the Switch 2 performance updates.
Lastly, sports games like 2K show us that you're just wrong. NBA 2K24 sold, as far as I'm seeing, about 9m. 2K25 at $70 has sold over 7m sales as of February meaning it's likely increased to around the same amount since.
Just a retarded post all around.

Nothing will ever flop as hard as the Wii U

PS3 already did

children on Anon Babble aren't ready to accept that while most will complain, a lot of working adults aren't really dissuaded by a $10 increase at software launch prices. most will eat the extra cost or wait for the holiday season if they weren't interested in paying full price anyway.

The ps3 sold 80+ million units you retarded obsessed idiot

you tell em, Tendie sis. #BingBongWahoo

Selling 80 million units to the tune of losing 9 billion dollars. Nintendo could have supported the WiiU until it sold 80 million and lost 15 billion dollars but they're smarter than Sony. Greatest flop in gaming history.

Nintendo always fails after having a successful generation thats their curse but with the next gimmick they make they will succeed again

Stop avoiding the elephant in the room. What's the difference between data on hard drive and data on the cartridge you tendie nigger?

So? You might get 20 bucks max for it.

What's the answer sealion? I don't like riddles.

The pattern is actually this: portable console is a success. And this just repeats.

You might get 20 bucks max for it.

Only if it's expendable PCslop or Horizon Forbidden Fun. Although, at least older PS console games maintain their value. My copy of Kuon is worth more than the average Indian PCshill's rig.

Is Sony paying for these retarded threads or what? Are the OPs just getting off on the engagement?

muh sealion crybaby cope

Simple. THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE. said buying DRM-free games doesn't mean you own them. I asked the subhuman tendie if there was any difference about buying the digital data (a.k.a a video game) on locked down cartridge. You then had a melty.

I asked my nephews on my dad's side if they wanted Switch 2, since they both had their own personal Switch 1 as kids (they're in high school now). They said no.
I asked my nephew on my mom's side, months ago he was an excited yes. Last week he was a no.

What I said is true, and DRM has nothing to do with whether or not you own property. Hope this helps your confusion.

Well yeah, Switch is for adults.

I can modify and transfer my copy of the data without getting raped in all holes by the law

somehow in the consolecuck's brain that doesn't count as owning

What can you do with your cartridge?

Your mom is the greatest flop in gaming history.

Maybe some of us aren't corporate bootlickers and don't want $80 games becoming the new normal.

Correct that doesn't count as owning.

Idort

What can you do with your cartridge?

Own it.

Then cast your vote :)

if you're in the US and have free time around launch day just go to gamestop/best buy for the midnight launches since they'll have some available for non preorders, or try ordering online from target for store pickup the morning of launch since that's how they'll be selling their in store units, or just show up at walmart opening and see if they have any extras and if not buy a corn dog

Reggie would have never let this happen. He would have never allowed the console tutorial to be sold separately. Bowser is a retard and a poor businessman that just lets his jap overlords walk all over him.

These are the people flooding this board with anti-switch 2 posts

oh good, so you wont be getting GTA6 then, right?

All anti-tendies are either insecure young men or 30+ year old ngmi adults with autism.

Anon Babble was never a safespace and moot was always a normie

How do you even come across these posts? Are you an unironic redditor?

Fat lot of good your "resistance" did seeing as other publishers have already been charging that much (and more) for games. An expert at licking arse, you are.

let it have the rrod issue it would be cathartic

it would be pretty funny if they spent all these years coming up with antipiracy methods and checks that they overlooked something that causes the console to just shit itself

I'm getting a Switch 2 also but... your skin may be white, but your soul is as brown as it gets. No wonder this place is such a shithole now.

not really. i don't have any account, and I don't post. there's a sub for video game leaks that's pretty useful, and i occasionally lurk. this post was on the recommended sidebar
