contrarians btfo for the 58492845th time

$450 is actually a reasonable price for the console itself in 2025, it feels good in your hands and has a lot of fixes and improvements that are hard to tell without actually using one (gyro, etc.). you and everyone else know deep down any other company releasing a system, whether it's a powerful home console or a handheld with similar specs (that isn't chinkshit), would charge $600 or more in a post "m-muh inflation" economy

$80 games can fuck off though

Honestly videogames could cost around $120 or $140 and I would still say that's entirely reasonable and fair. $80 literally nothing. Basically a free game if it were any cheaper lol.

Emulachads will win, theres like 3 games on Switch worth paying for and I'm being generous. Probably will be the same on Switch 2.

>>712464140
I'd tend to agree with this. $60 for me is already only reserved for games I know I'm going to enjoy (a very small amount), and even then, I've gotten burned a number of times. I've only played a single game that I would consider to be worth $70 (Factorio with its expansion, and even then, it's only because it proved itself multiple times over at $35). $80 is fucking laughable. I simply don't buy games from new franchises unless they're under $40.

Its called a Honeymoon period anon. PS5 also broke records and its trending below the PS4.

Good chance this will be like the 3DS since a third of Switch 2's sales come from Japan (it was only 20% for Switch 1) which means the US did significantly worse and thats Nintendo's biggest market. Anyone thinking it was going to be selling at Wii U levels is regarded

>>712474357

Fuck maybe I'm regarded.

>>712463657 (OP)

Not in the USA, the only country where it matters.

>>712464140
I agree. Once the PS6 and Xbox Series 2 comes out with outrageous $699+ prices, the Switch 2 will look like a bargain. Especially if PS6 has no real exclusives and the games are cross-platform with the PS5.

>>712474568
Did we get anything on NA. I know it sold a million in Japan and Spain, UK and France are about 450K. I'm thinking NA is like 1-1.5 million. I think its why it felt like it was flopping since it really under performed here.

>>712465095
>Why are you happy about this?
I'm a Nintendo fan. I support Nintendo. The seeds they planted long ago of holding firm on their software price and retaining value for their customers is finally blossoming into a beautiful competitive advantage that nobody else in the market can match. Sony, Microsoft, and Valve can't reasonably price their games at $80, their customers expect cheaper than that. Nintendo consumers can and will buy $80 software, and this will help them sustain success for decades, beinging me more of the games I love. If you don't like this then pirate or emulate their games, just don't pretend like you had a choice, poor faggot.

>he buyed switch 2

>>712463657 (OP)
Factually incorrect as most phones are more powerful than the swish 2. The only reason it exists is so that nintendo will have more chances to gouge its customers for even more money than the switch 1. A prime example of this is the c button you have to pay a monthly sub for. You literally paid them $900 for the privilege of being able to give them even more money. You are an npc and you should be recalled and given a factory reset.

People have no principles. 90% of people in this boycott of nintendo still bought it because "gotta have my nintendo". Why does this happen? Why are we as consumers not buying within our interests?

This is yet to be seen, because no one in their right mind is paying 80 dollars for Mario Kart World instead of just buying the bundle. Unfortunately tendies will eat it up, they were already excusing Nintendo removing a feature that allowed you to pay for one copy of the game and share it with a friend, like you can do on PlayStation and Xbox. Now, each of you have to buy a copy if you want to play together online.

i will now not buy your console. fucking jews.
so now instead of paying 40 dollars with a friend and getting 2 copies, you have to pay 80 each, huh? i will NEVER spend more than 59.99 for a video game, so, for that reason, i'm out.

>>712464140
Are you sure?

Just an fyi, this console is supposed to be around for another 8-10 years. This is essentially a Switch "upgrade." This is supposed to be on par with the PS6 and next XBOX.

This is worth $450?

What would you do if pic related happened to you?

>>712476889
>the PS6 and next XBOX.
These two consoles will have a combined total of zero (0) games. Switch 2 will probably end up with several hundred. I won't be buying a single game over 60 dollars so, I won't be buying the console. But for those who gave into the $70+ jewery, I'm sure it's worth it.

Its never morally incorrect to pirate Nintendo.

>>712480457
Nope.
It's a freebsd RTOS thing, no java anywhere in it.
And in terms of hardware it is a nvidia "recipe".
the CPU is an ARM CPU nvidia themselves designed, and a recycled cheap laptop geforce with some OpenGL ES features shoved in like color compression and 16bit math.
It is pretty unique, but it's not designed by nintendo at all.
It was a failure as an android chip as nvidia initially designed because it was shit with battery life due all the extra features OpenGL ES 2.0 don't use.
Then it was a failure as a nvidia console (the shields).
Then Nintendo got it for cheap.

>>712463657 (OP)

>>712481658
Why do you insist on telling lies here on the internet

>manufacture 6 million consoles
>set it to "what they would pay for the scalpers anyway" price

It was a pretty simple strategy, and it worked.
The original switch would probably had sold the same, if nintendo had made a shitload of em too, but i imagine that after the WiiU, nintendo was just not very sure that it would be worth it.
And you don't have to take my word for it, it was literally what nintendo themselves said they would do:
https://www.cnet.com/tech/gaming/nintendo-wants-to-flood-stores-with-the-switch-2-console-to-stop-scalpers/

Now on related news, nintendo fucking fucked with the scalpers and it was hilarious and nice.

>>712481894
The nvidia shield used android, so it's pretty obvious that they will use the already made android drivers for it.
However on your own picture, they say it's not android.

>>712482282
When did I say it was a full-blown version of Android? I said it was based on Android.

You said it's a closed source version of android, not that it contains some components of android, it's a pretty different thing.

Nah man the Switch 2 is a spec bump from the Switch which is like 10 years old it shoulda definitely been what it is for around the same pricepoint and the $80 games are egregious.
