What are they hiding?

Is Anon Babble gonna pretend to care about journos now like when they pretended to be fully for BLM/ACAB when Astrail Chain came out?

Gaming journalists matter less and less as the days go on. Nintendo is probably realizing that they're close to the point where they can just tell all western journalists to fuck off.

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma on Xbox and PS5, Xenoblade X on PC... what's going on with Nintendo?

Maybe gaming 'journalists' promoting emulation was the last straw for Nintendo.

This. All their pre-release coverage have used those in-person switch 2 events with actual people than the latest influencer or jurno

Based.

As always Nintendo is leading the charge for revolution in gaming. First Directs making things like E3 completely irrelevant, now with Nintendo Today they are making those faggot journos irrelevant. And that is incredibly based.

Spooked by based Digital Foundry

Have to hide inside their Nintendo bubble

disappointing for everyone

I love when journo scum says that like they want to mobilize their audience, to make it seem like it's their loss.
When in reality it's their own loss, no free click by a free review product to entertain peoples anticipation.
Most of the available stock is already sold there isn't a real point to sway peoples interest, quite the contrary. For Nintendo the only difference would be if reviewers shit really hard on Switch 2.

Also this

Totally not alarming, right tendies? naaah cattle just keep consuuuming

I love when journo scum says that like they want to mobilize their audience, to make it seem like it's their loss.

It's a dirty game and they play it well.

Okay journalist.

So no more paid GOTY nominations for 360p 12fps kiddies slop, no more Nintendo tax when reviewing their games? Finally some good news!

They begrudgingly gave BotW that GotY award.

Oh nooooooooo the biased """journalists""" can't get their hands on the latest hardware meaning they can't make money off of it and will have to fight for it like everyone, what will we ever do?
LMFAO take a fucking hike you fucking pieces of trash, Gamergate WON!

the switch 2 isn’t real

Thousands of people got to play the prerelease event though

Olímpio, why is Nintendo panicking?
They really want coomsumers to stop asking questions and just spend, spend, spend.

what the fuck would a review even tell me? there's no new gimmicks, we have seen people play the games and give their opinions. I know all I need to know to make an informed purchase.

it's easier to scam people if they know nothing about your product except "it's nintendo, duh! everyone is buying this!"

The seething Nintendo causes amoung "journalists" is always funny. And the only thing they can really do is advocate piracy in response.

Olimpio? Is that the name of the favela macaco nigger monkey who promised to suck a dog dick for every switch sold past 10 million?

this but sony

Based Nintendo
Fuck access media

Nothing probably. I think they are just that paranoid about piracy or leaks. I think it was a mistake since there is really no news of Switch 2. At least if journos get the console, people will make Youtube videos or share the article. Now there's nothing, and I wouldn't be surprised if most people don't know this is coming out in a few days

not just game journalists. Nvidia with their 5060 launch basically told journos that they are only allowed to do preview benchmarks the exact same way they did them.
Only 4 games were allowed to be benchmarked and shit like dlss and multiframegen had to be turned on.

The industry realized they can play media like a fiddle now.
They are too many reviewers, so to not be left out they agree to those ridiculous conditions. Reviewers could've just as well just linked to nvidias benchmarks.

Switch 2 preorders are for the real fans only, we bought in before needing to hear anybody's opinion. The hesitant more casual consumers have chosen to wait, I think they can manage a few more days

Wii U 2.0

Seriously who cares? Anyone who wants a Switch 2 is getting it day one and anyone still on the fence won't be getting one for the next few weeks/months anyway.

3DS 2.0*

all of the preorders are being cancelled

I don't think Switch 2 actually exists yet.

Hiding profits from journos lol

Switch 2.0*

I don’t understand how this is a thing
A pre-order is paid for

Retarded amerilard retailers took significantly more preorders than they had stock.

No hype at all

DOA.

OMG
NO REVIEWS?!
WHAT DAS THAT MEAN FOR ME AND YOU?
I WOULD NEVER KNOW HAD I NOT READ THAT ARTICLE

Yeah, there is no hype for the absolute state of play

There's a state of play?

Wrong. Everybody is hyping for real games on a real console.

there's no games so i'm not buying

Calm down Olimpio

*better on PC

consumers have no idea how the multiplats will perform

lol. lmao even.

Going based on benchmarks I've seen the Switch 2 isn't super strong for the battery life it gets.
My laptop should hypothetically get around 80% of the switch 2's performance but has better battery life by many magnitudes.
It's an $800 laptop yeah sure but it should not be more efficient at gaming than a $500 device made for it specifically.

Olímpio, why is Nintendo panicking?

What's the answer?

We didn't get a free Nintendo early. Here's why it's your problem.

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma will be there.

The thing also is that the people who would care for an objective review about the Switch 2 won't go to gaming journalists because of all the ragebait they do about Nintendo. They aren't trustworthy in the eyes of the average gamer because of that.

I don't think anyone cares about Rune Factory considering how the past 3-4 games have been complete garbage. If anyone wants an rpg with lifesim elements they could just get the new Fantasy Life which is superb.

Honestly, MKWorld leaks.

It will be the first of many switch exclusives that will make their way to consoles and PC.

Gaming "journalists" have been replaced by youtubers. If anything, they should give a review unit to some eceleb. They almost always are ragging Nintendo fans because muh childhood nostalgia.

Huh? What do you mean? Neither Rune Factory nor Fantasy Life have been Switch exclusive.

Mortal Kombat World? Will it be like konquest mode in deception?

Can't receive free games and bing bing wahoo before everyone else

Good

Anti consumer

Good

More like anti journo. I will keep using ad block by the way :)

gaming jewrnos are not consumers

Performance, battery life, it being terrible as a handheld, extra harsh scores over the price and other cancer, so on and so forth

Damn anon already saw the future of pisstation 5 portable

No use arguing with fanboys. This is the one time when journos are worth a damn to comment about the new hardware and how the new games perform but they'll still hand wave it and pretend like that's not the case. Just trust the scie- I mean just trust Nintendo.

But they are. No one wants to spend €700 or $600 on shit that might be made of fucking cardboard.

Gotta love their hypocrisy. They'll suck the shit out of journo's dicks whenever they praise nintendo, but for anything else, journos are scum and should never be listened to.

But they are.

No :)

The moment they see MKW review scores they'll go back to praising journalists and talking about how much they matter. Unless the journalists review bomb MKW because they didn't get given a Switch 2, which is entirely possible with how petty journos are.

What is the point of owning any platform outside a computer?

Only thing they are hiding is thats its a much worse switch 1 console.

we actually have some preview impressions from today

The game is too punishing, especially the new battle royale mode

The game doesn't hold your hand when it comes to introducing new mechanics

The open world isn't all that interesting

Game is too chaotic

This was from the Eurogamer video, so I take the game will get low 80s on metacritic.

A person getting a console for free isn't a consumer, they're a leech.

what are they hiding

nothing, they just don't cared about what retarded vidya journalist think and decided to ship these units to actual players and fans. blame Digital Faggots for that.

eurogamer

Isn't that the one where they were whining about how Elden Ring should have an easy mode as well as being able to pause?

try and cry harder, failed journos.

Why do you embrace being a consumer?

The review scores are irrelevant

True, launch games are basically immune from that. And it's even more true for Nintendo, just look at how well the latest Pokemon game have sold despite the (relatively) low review scores.

I saw some negative things about DK Bonanza from people that got to try it too.
youtube.com/watch?v=ajZE5n308d4&t=303s

posting some alphabet tranny channel

Damn, talk about being desperate lmao

Trying to discredit it seems way more desperate to me.

Theyre undershipping systems so they can pretend the system is selling gangbusters so they can fomo people into buying it

I'm not commenting on the preview itself, but the channel.

Console reviews are nonsensical. They review it on metacritic the week it releases, when consoles are typically at their worst technical performance, and worst library, and end up with often a 6/10 average, that stays with it the rest of the console cycle.

Not that people ever read them. But it's a super weird practice and based that Nintendo is blocking it.

PS5 eats the no games switchy 2 for breakfast and is cheaper! Now imagine a Sony portable console that releases in 2027...

Physical library, actually owning the games you buy, factually being able to play the games you paid for without needing an internet connection.

We're not allowing reviews of our product, you have to buy and find out.

Sounds based to me. Means people will be able to form their own opinions without biased games journos affecting it.

We the multibillion dollar company are not allowing reviews of our product, no we're not panicking, no we're not hiding anything, you just have to buy and find out.

we literally have no idea how game key carts actually function or how any game performs because even people that got an early console are currently locked out because the day 1 patch isn't out yet lmao.

So this is why sony didn't sent out ps5 pros
Irrelevant lmao

Geoffs shilling on its own did enough.

you are the ideal uninformed goycattle.

Game journos are anti-consumer. They literally take bribes (even if it's just early access) to write bullshit "reviews" based more on their relationship with the publisher/developers or their social politics than on the actual fucking videogame.
Consumers can wait 1 week and give each other honest reviews.

Why are westoids all such snoy goylems?

Here's the Switch 2 review:

If you liked the first Switch, this is more Switch. If you didn't like the first Switch, this is still more Switch. Do you want more Nintendo Switch? That's what Nintendo Switch 2 is. More Nintendo Switch.

That's it.

They did, Olímpio.
Your lying gimmick doesn't work outside the Famitsu threads echo chamber.

It's weaker than people expect
It's a draconian locked down piece of shit
nogaems

olimpio

Who?

Olímpio has the most harmless twitter collage saved on his device

he's actually crying about it

Journos: relentlessly attack Nintendo over everything

Nintendo: Fuck you *rescinds review privileges*

Journos: HOW COULD THEY DO THIS????

But the metacritic scores are great, Mario pepperoni has a 97...

he doesn’t know

HAHAHAHAHA

You’re such a predictable macaco.

He got community noted

HAHAHAHAHA

in what world are journos not giving nintendo's big games rave reviews unless they're actually bad like pps?

This dude is such a fucking moron.

He is also morbidly obese

Thursday is going to be fun. Next Thursday will be even better

Tendies play twitter instead of games

No wonder Olímpio is your ring leader.

You guys are still stuck in a bubble 20 years in the past.

All the Nintendo twitter guys I see are either obese, brazilian or black.
Diabetic fat fucks like Nintendoprime and mongoloids like the aesiercuck but then you come in here and it's just this dude called Olímpio projecting nonstop...very strange.

Projecting real hard now eh snoy macaco

Olímpio is brazilian and part of the LGBT community.

Also he's a huge Sony shill

We just making up random names now?
