>>712493634Daisy is fun for the whole family
The thing about handheld sales vs console is there's always double dippers. Either it's because of buying a second one because it's limited edition, buying a new revision, or buying extra ones for the kids. I don't know how many people will do that at that price point. 450 isn't a sure why not price point anymore. How many people who already have one will drop 450 for bing bing red?
>>712491752Is this first time he's so blatantly injected his opinions into sales reports?
>>712493589Famitsu doesn't count the nintendo store, so it's likely over a million. Switch 1 is currently well over 37 million in japan, though famitsu only records 35.75 million of it for that reason.
>>712493838i don't think so, he's well known for being a sonyfag (or being a sony shill, pick your poison) after all
>>712491752...and? What is this supposed to refute? That the Switch 2 doesn't have the highest numerically backed demand of a launch ever?
>>712493476Weirdest thing is that Dreamcast guy. Apparently he is just making click bait switch 2 videos now? He was already an insane sega fag before so not surprising.
Thread 5 is the most important one because he went full mask off in his agenda, so I advise everyone to look at that one.

>>712494086>>712494213It's so odd because, sure the PS5 might have been able to do it, but it didn't. The PS5 was nonetheless quite successful.
As a cheap games machine, it's honestly fine and serves its purpose. The reason it gets dunked on is because without exclusives, there's nothing special about that box's software compared to the other boxes on the market (i.e. PC).

sonyfags MUST own the "winner" console so that they can feel superior to others (it's all they have).
the switch raping the ps4 and ps5, the fact it's getting close to the ps2's record (let's be honest, it has already beaten the non cope number, 155m) and the switch 2 smashing records all over the world (including all the cope PS5 "records" like fastest selling in zimbabwe between 1 and 2 AM in dollars) is causing massive amounts of butthurt throughout their ranks.
>thread 6
Are you winning, son?
>>712494180But Nintendo was always seen as the cheap option even if that was never necessarily true. It seems expensive now because it is expensive now. What Sony does later doesn't matter because Nintendo isn't targeting the people that buy Sony. My point is just that people will have to think longer about any purchase than before. And Nintendo has to justify the prices more than before. Switch was weak but people didn't care because it was cheap and normalfags don't care about graphics and performance to play Animal Crossing. Mario Kart while not a bad game isn't a 80 dollar game.
>>712490000>>712490357I can't believe you retards still fall for this shit. There was voice acting in the trailer for God's sake. The only "source" for this claim is a parody twitter account.
>>712494473>>712494180People didn't understand that switch 2s are being manufactured outside china so they will be cheaper by default compared to any console in the future unless Microsoft and Sony do something but they still didn't as far as I know. Ps6 and "Xbox something" will be expensive. They will still blame Nintendo somehow lol
On the one hand, there is no good defense for $80 games, and the switch 2 really should have been $400, not $450. On the other, 97% of the people throwing a colossal bitchfit would still be upset if it was 5x as powerful, cost $200, and included mario kart world as a free game.

>>712494345Too many long words and proper sentence structure for him. Probably one of his copycats.
The imposters are even more pathetic than the original, imaging larping as a schizo.
>>712491128 (OP)This is honestly one hell of a victory lap for the NS2. And a total vindication of Nintendo and their market operations. I think they've garnered an immense amount of public goodwill and it is clear that at the very least domestically, their clients are giving the Big N their full endorsement. Can't say this is completely unsurprising, but a couple of lingering questions still remain.
What about the 3rd party situation? Devs were notoriously slow on the uptake during the Switch generation. They aren't entirely at fault, the Nintendo Switch was a big question mark at the time, and you can't blame studio skittishness after the Wii U debacle. But now that there is this resound market confirmation of the Switch model, are we going to see studios like Atlus de-retarding themselves and offering more immediate support for the system?
Finally, the new counterargument against the NS2 success is that this is their peak, that the suckers already went all in and that there aren't that many new clients to be found. While I think it's a reasonable take to claim that the NS2 will probably not move as many units as the NS1, it's still a rather puzzling take because we haven't seen Nintendo going into full gear and announce a roadmap towards holiday 2025. A Direct is more or less inbound, can't imagine they'll be skipping Summer this year. But the real question of how well this new system will perform on the market is still more or less open, though there are abundant reasons to remain optimistic.
All in all, this was an incredible week for Nintendo, and I genuinely wish them the best. They were a breath of fresh air these last 8 years and now with more competent hardware and development targets, I expect to see very good things coming from them.
>>712494840>Nintendo was always seen as the cheap option even if that was never necessarily trueI swear this narrative sprang up overnight. Nintendo games were famous for never going down in price. The first time I saw Mario Kart DS sell for under its launch price on a store shelf was after Mario Kart 7 released.

>>712495536He just changed tactics. He's currently bringing up Nintendo unprompted in the Stellar Blade threads and also shilling it.
>>712495510This. Remember the N64 and it's more expensive games which Sony took full advantage of with their FF7 ads during that period. The only time Nintendo was marketed as the 'cheap' console was when the console/handheld was in it's twilight years like the Gameboy, Gamecube and the cheaply made versions of the NES, SNES, and Wii (and the 2DS).
>>712491752There is nothing to be said on this. Who ever tweets this kind of nonsense isn't serious people capable of facing actual reality. It's embarrassing.
>>712491752>Nintendo wasn't retarded like Sony so that's the only reason Nintendo won!Odd defense, but accurate. What of it? At the end of the day, Sony's still fucking retarded.

>>712495891I 100% think it was intended to launch in 2021, but some higher up saw animal crossing's sales and said "ooh, ooh! I want that too!"
>>712491309I fully expect the corpos to bully Harada into putting Tekken 8 on Switch 2 and a lot of crying from the usual suspects.
>>712496205Don't care who started it you child
>>712496272You know what, anon? That sounds retarded enough to be totally plausible. Sasuga Sony.
>>712496338Harada being grabbed the throar and forced to put his games on the switch 2 to keep his job would be pretty funny
>>712495686>the cheaply made versions of the NES, SNESBoth of these revisions are just better and more reliable hardware compared to their original models. The only problem is the top loader NES was RF only (Japanese version did have AV out though).
>>712496230Nice argument. Can't expect much from a tendie I suppose
>>712492701This. People threw shit at Nintendo for not being "nice" to these poor third party companies and then when Nintendo gave them options they pull shit moves like these, and people blame Nintendo as if the had the fault for some reason.
The gamecard "debacle" is moot, gamecards are the usual Nintendo thing that doesn't work on the long run.
>>712493476Clickbait, what did you expect?
>>712492743the cope is real
>>712496408or he can just quit like Nagoshi
I know no one on the internet actually talks to anyone outside of it but I'm curious if anyone else knows people that bought a Switch but express zero interest in a Switch 2 at all. So what does it do differently comes up a lot. I tried explaining the mouse functionality to people and they didn't get it or see the point of it. Outside of being stronger there's no selling point people give a fuck about. Nobody cares about the voice chat. Nobody understands the mouse stuff since Nintendo or third parties aren't making use of it. Normal people don't give a fuck about specs and graphics and HDR and 120 FPS. It's not a flop but don't think there's mainstream interest in Switch 2. There's plenty of people that don't watch Nintendo Directs or discuss video games on the internet or watch videos about games that still bought a Switch for Animal Crossing, Smash and Mario Kart. I don't think Switch 2 has these fickle people yet.
>>712496338I expect harada himself to throw a tantrum on twitter too.
>>712496085Akshually there's 2 companies that saw no increase in profits during the goydemic.
Want to guess the second one?
It's ubisoft.
>>712496424>2025>snoy is still mindbroken by TOTK
>>712496424When are you posting this again?
>>712496497Most people I know are saying "yeah, I'll probably pick it up when more games are out"
>>712496272Nah, Sony and MS had their consoles planned for that window years in advance but then the COOF happened and fucked the manufacturing sector in China. They were effectively forced to either ship out what they had or delay until a then-unknown safe point and let Nintendo eat the market even more than it already was.
>>712491309Capcom is the only JP 3rd party that might genuinely not need Nintendo. They're fine as long as they don't piss off the Chinese or a Chinese company decides to copy the Monster Hunter formula and steal all those new Chinese PC game sales.
>>712496412I actually meant to say 'cheaper' made and you're right.
The stupid no A/V thing on the toploader was why I never got it as I didn't know anything about modifying it back then.
>>712496019>Sony only succeeds when Nintendo falters.Same can be said with Xbox when Sony falters.
>check the famitsu thread on trannyera to see how that den of snoys and jewrnos is taking it
>see Liam of all people having a melty about Switch 2's success
What the fuck happened to him since he left SBFP?
>>712496497Everyone I know who has a switch wants a switch 2, but are willing wait for the launch rush to calm down so they can more calmly get their copy
>>712496497This "uh no one I know bought it that must mean there's no interest in it" is so fucking stupid lmao.
>>712496606>Capcom is the only JP 3rd party that might genuinely not need NintendoWell there's SNK but they're like 45% Saudi money at this point.
>>712496497No one gives a shit about hardware features. Games move hardware and all normies talk about in relation to the Switch 2 is open world Mario Kart being an amazing idea
>>712496497>I know no one on the internet actually talks to anyone outside of it but I'm curious if anyone else knows people that bought a Switch but express zero interest in a Switch 2 at all.While I haven't confirmed it personally because this acquaintance of mine is a thoroughly indigestible person, I suspect that I know at least of one person who fits this description. I know of way more people who had a passing interest on the Switch, though never bought one, and are now very interested in acquiring a NS2.
>thread 6
how badly is the meltdown?
have reached nuclear levels or we are past that?
>>712496497> Nobody understands the mouse stuff since Nintendo or third parties aren't making use of it.It barely come out
>>712496663>everyone in all my Nintendo circles loves Switch 2 and bought one day one which means everyone with a Switch will buy Switch 2
>>712492574They already showed their ass to PC players after how dogshit Wilds was for the majority of them.
>>712496497No one in their right mind should buy a Nintendo console for specs, so those people are right to not give a shit. When the game they care about is announced they'll look it up, and, if it's appealing enough, they'll buy one. Simple as.
>>712496808He had a sperg out last thread where he lost the ability to speak english and started screaming to murder people again
>>712496808It is very badly saar
Reminder that the macaco and acfaggot are basically the same person. They sit in a discord to coordinate their shitposting
>>712496814Doesn't matter. They should have had a game to better demonstrate it than Paralympics simulator and Welcome Tour. Just one.
>>7124968273.5 million in the first 4 days baby!
>>712496664They already went bankrupt twice and their CEO just got fired after COTW bombed hard, they aren't doing so hot.
>>712496857And still took it to 10M+ , the most I can hope is that Itchy nose stays as far as humanly possible from Wilds for the next MH
>>712496338I will never, ever understand what the deal is with Harada and Nintendo. Did they broke his sunglasses back in the 90s or something? One of gaming's biggest mysteries.
>>712496606Capcom is generally committed to releasing their games on every platform available provided there's a way to do so. We saw Kunitsu-Gami on Switch 2. I doubt they'd do something exclusive on Switch 2, but I could see them do a timed exclusive as a collaboration project like RE Revelations on the 3DS
Some data, launch week sales for each console.
>>712496827I know exactly two people who might consider buying if they slashed the price in half.
Doesn't mean I'm gonna ignore the fact that the thing just had the biggest launch ever for s console. The demand is there.
I don't know what other proof you need.
>>712497046Wow, what a flop
>>712497046NINTENDO IS DOOMED!!!
>>712497146Hey buddy, look at this.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3M9ydSL8rp0
Sales for games on console launch week
Knack isn't included because it was given for free to every ps4 buyers, Titanfall on Xbox & MKW had bundles (either console alone or console+game in the box)
>>712497214MKW gonna be another 46 million seller
>>712496606>They're fine as long as they don't piss off the Chinese or a Chinese company decides to copy the Monster Hunter formulaoh boy, square was also on this exact same spot like 3 years ago
look what happened
>>712496962>>712492072Paper mario the thousand year door :^)
>>712497046>King Nintendo just slapping their giant red sales schlong all over itty bitty PS5
Mario Kart sales on launch week.
The Wii version released after the launch, there was already 5.8million Wii sold in japan at that time.
>>712496497>Nobody understands the mouse stuff since Nintendo or third parties aren't making use of itThe main use case would be in facilitating the ports of games made for PC that were designed around the mouse like Sim games or random niche stuff like The Witness. It will make more sense as those games start being ported. But it is up to the devs being arsed to patch or port these games.
>bought a Switch for Animal Crossing, SmashAnd those games are coming up for sure.
>>712497190>switch 2 emulator is dead in the water and years out >GTA6 will be playable a week before launch on PS5 emulators Karmic justice
>>712497257We don't know yet. Depends on what Nintendo has cooking for MKW. I suspect that they'll keep updating the game throughout the generation. The lack of a 200cc mode is noticeable, for example.
>>712497190???? to play what exactly???
>>712497364would be good for a new trauma center or etrian odyssey
>>712497190Why do you think I care? I'm happy for emulation for all systems. You are so mindbroken by sony that you think other people give a fuck about your console war bullshit
>>712492785I WILL post 1tb of dolphin porn. You best fucking behave.
So why does the maccaco keep seething about paper mario?
>>712497190thanks, but I already got vlc installed
>>712497447>Tells other to kill themselves>"Umm you care too much about console wars :0"Hmmm, I don't buy it.
>>712496994Tekken Tag Tournament 2 was on the WiiU and absolutely shit the bed financially. The irony of that game being the reason Kazuya could be in Smash.
>>712497371Snoys must have really passed off the God of memes (probably because they never make their own) because meme magic seems to works the opposite for them
>>712497471He should leave us xisters alonee!
>>712497352>best mario kart gets the most salesabsolutely based
>>712497084We have to see in a year's time if Nintendo is able to make games these people care about and if these things are still flying off the shelves despite not having these games. If they're just sitting on shelves untouched in a few months or there isn't a holiday rush then we can actually say they're in trouble.
>>712496497Most of my friends are poor. So its not that they don't want a switch 2, its that they can't buy one.

I pray Jesus Christ saves your soul before you go to hell Eric.
According to Sony themselves, the PS2 sold 980k in 3 days in japan (600k retail (Famitsu) and 380k online sales)
https://x.com/GameDataLibrary/status/1932104925909336139
We don't know how many how much the Switch 2 sold through online sales but surely more than 50k enough to beat the record.
>>712497584Oh translator headcannon is his latest cope
>>712497568Honestly Nintendo should had told those cunts to fuck off, same goes for fatlus.
>>712497467this emulator maybe the only way to play that game at more than 25fps at launch
>>712497584You got raped ;)
>>712497676>Translator cope

>>712497664>including pre-orders
>>712497371>>GTA6 will be playable a week before launch on PS5 emulatorswant to know whats funnier? apparently ps4/pis5 emulation efforts are being spearheaded by former yuzu/ryujinx devs

>>712497724Nice selfie, Eric
>>712497584Yes glownigger, we know your overlords deem making fun of trans people acceptable because they turned their backs on them.
>>712497664>still using the PS2 as a crutch in this day and ageThat's really sad.
>>712497710ATLUS was very invested in the portable side of things, it's just the home consoles they balked at. Still gave us Trauma Center though and that series had no business being that cool.
>>712497596It's so fucking good, I feel like I'm taking crazy pills when I see people here say it's the worst one.
>>712497765If they are including that metric then it is only fair to include the 2.2 million pre-orders the switch 2 have for that retailer
>>712497757game journos are seething
yt scum have already moved on to ranting about the latest capeshit trailer
>>712497664Didn't Nintendo reported that they had well exceeded 1 million pre-orders in Japan alone? So what is this post supposed to accomplish? By any metric, Sony lost this one. At least pull some newly found Atlantean pre-orders like you did for PS2 sales figures.
>>712497568>shit the bedGame was the last good Tekken, Wii U was the best version and it's great for anyone but fgcfags. Tag2 had terrible luck imo, it's such a fun game for bullshittery
>>712497818speaking of which, israel just attacked iran out of the blue over muh nuclear program, they don't care about pretenses anymore
and what a coincidence, the antijapan glowies were throwing a tantrum about 24 hours ago out of nowhere, seemingly not really aligning with the switch 2 famitsu thread
>>712497190What is there to even emulate? GTA6 will likely be out for PC a year after it hits consoles LOL
>>712497873Nintendo should've spearheaded the showcase with knockout tour and 150cc. Seeing treehouse niggers drive in 50cc probably gave some people the wrong impression. Plus the usual doomposting about Nintendo. Regardless, people thinking that Mario Kart would fail was always ridiculous.
>>712497970They reported over 2.2 million pre-orders in japan from one retailer alone
>>712498047>Nintendo should've spearheaded the showcase with knockout tour and 150cc.they did in japan lol
>>712498084Kek of course they did. Cheaper system, better trailers. They love their own people (as they should) but it's always funny to see them treat the filthy gaijin as afterthoughts after all this time.
>>712497757B-but in an alternate reality where the PS5 sold more, it could have sold more!
>>712497996Him dropping all pretenses last thread makes a loooooot of sense now.
>>712498056I knew it was over 2 million, but I didn't want to post unverified claims. Yeah, the NS2 is doing monstrously. And it's sad seeing people still bringing up the PS2 in this day and age.
>>712497873It's easily the most fun with Mario Kart I've had since Double Dash.
>>712498229>And it's sad seeing people still bringing up the PS2 in this day and age.Speaks volumes how gen 6 isn't retro due still feeling modern, yeah; gaming is THAT stagnated. This was warned in gen 7's graphicwhorism.
>>712497636That's another thing. I've had people I asked say fuck no too expensive even if I know they can afford it. They just saw some sensationalist post on Tiktok or Instagram or whatever say 80 or 90 dollar games and decided there not to buy one. Obviously that doesn't represent the entire population but that's a negative talking point Nintendo didn't have to deal with before.
>>712498229Nintendo been preparing units since last year or so, I wonder how big is current batch.
>>712497996Why was this deleted?
>>712498519I still can't grasp that argument considering it's the cheapest thing on the market outside of the Series S and still takes physical game cards.
>>712498519Hell they jacked the price of Amiibos up from their old 15-20 dollar price point to near the price of a game itself (well, a 40 dollar game). I still don't believe tariffs are the only reason for the price hikes and think Nintendo was planning on it anyway.
>>712493476That one about backwards compatibility (bottom leftmost) is hilarious because all three of those games worked on day one, and run even better on Switch 2.
Hell, South Park Fractured but Whole probably runs better on Switch 2 than it does on PS4/Xbone.
>>712492771He isn’t based
>>712498229teenagers and manchild 20somethings think that raw hardware capability is what drives hardware sales. the fact is that, especially in japan, the switch 2 is best seen as a platform for the software people want to play. Its power is relevant, but it's not directly comparable in value to a PC because its aim is to be as powerful as it needs to be to deliver a more HD version of what it previously did while costing as much as their customers are willing to buy.
Splatoon is absurdly popular in Japan. It's one of the fastest selling games in Japan of all time. It's literally Japanese Call of Duty. They already won this market.
>>712498402It was the biggest perceivable generational leap. Gen 5 gave us 3D, but it was only ever truly implemented during Gen 6. Then came the dawn of the HD Era, which we all know just how disastrous it was.
While I certainly am not a Gen 6 maximalist, I do think it hit the sweet spot when it came to development. If devs are capable of figuring out decent pipelines for Gen 8/9 development, it is possible to recreate the PS2 Era excitement. Nintendo staying a step behind isn't just out of cautiousness, I genuinely do feel that right now they are benefiting from dev maturity and are imposing a sort of discipline on studios. Limitless technology was always a foolish mistake.
>>712498675it's better to not ask here for our own safety.
>>712497364Animal Crossing is a harder sell now. I think there's plenty of people who got burned from the game being a shitty drip feed and releasing unfinished. I feel like the game stopped being a fad a few months in and people were left with a bad taste because basic features not being there at launch. How many people will be dying to play if it it's 80 dollars and doesn't have a café or diving or holidays again? Not to mention all the things people hate like soulless robotic dialogue and breakable tools.
>>712498892i guess it cheese pizza or another "THROAR" then
>>712498583Dunno, but it would be very exciting if they could exceed 7 million by the end of this year. It would utterly demolish Sony.
>>712498843The Raiders + Splat 3 update had like 2m views in Japan or something. Shit's crazy.
>>712495165Most people who couldn't afford that typically finance it, so the cost to them doesn't actually look like $1000 even though they're paying well over that. It's like an extra $80 added to their phone bill for two years, that's affordable, right?
>>712499093It was something else.
https://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/712491128/#712497996
>>712499063I strongly suspect they can deliver a great Switch 2 AC if they just upscale their production pipeline from New Horizons and make a more complete product on release.
The issue is that once you've had the final major concert, the decoration endgame was competely underbaked until DLC released years after COVID
>>712499063I'm giving New Horizons the benefit of the doubt and saying that covid fucked up the dev cycle of that one. Now that we're past it, the next entry should be a return to form. Also I don't get the dialogue complaints; New Leaf wasn't all that much better.
>>712497664famitsu only counts retailers so Nintendo's numbers are also higher since they sold a lot directly by themselves
ACfag won
Terraria won
TF2 won
Armored Core won
Pizza Tower won
Nintendo lost
Salesfags lost
Movie watchers lost
>>712499336Can you keep this up for the next 8 years?
>>712499161Nips are fucking crazy over splatoon, shit is ridiculous big there.
Merch sells ridiculous well.
>>712499336>Back to anti-Japan glowie mode as soon as people bring up what's going onJust tell us who you actually work for and who is funding you. We know you're a glowie.
Nintendo really played the long con. Who'd thunk they alone would be the ones to brave two vidya industry crashes, being arguably at their strongest during the second one. If you told people this during the wii u or even GameCube era they'd laugh you off the building
Why does Japan enjoy Splatoon like normal people but in the US it attracts trannys left right and centre?
>>712499371he doesn't play any of those games and lost hard
>>7124994648 more years lmao
>>712499464Noticing glownigger...
>>712498689It's relative to nothing. These people aren't going to buy a Steam Deck or PS5 because they don't want a Nintendo. It's either they're going to buy a Nintendo or not and they lived just fine day to day without a Nintendo. It's not like trying to compare prices for a house or phones or appliances. It's probably more like deciding if you want a jet ski or not.
>>712499371>ACfagThis nigga still around? He was ruining Metroid threads back in 2009 or something. There's no way he's still around.
>>712499452they plan way into the future
they started building their new HQ two years ago and it won't be ready till 2028
>>712499323Lock downs started like the week the game came out so you can only really use that as an excuse for the post-launch stuff.
>>712499452>If you told people this during the wii u or even GameCube era they'd laugh you off the buildingNot really. Square basically proved Yamauchi right almost immediately by pissing away money on FF9 and Spirits Within.
>>712499550He's still around and he was right before the numbers dropped.

>>712499550You better believe it nigga, he's never changed
>>712499161>>712499421Splatoon is a legitimately amazing shooter that's both casual friendly and fairly deep. The fact that ammo, mobility, and map control are all tied together gives the game a lot of sauce. It's also the game that sold me on gyro controls
>>712499595The Glownigger refuses to answer!
>>712499550hes still around seething about nintendo games being popular, his new favorite past time is defending the CP spamming snoys do
>>712499234Man I hope kikes get wiped off the earth soon, world news are fucking fatiguing.
I just want to play vidya games in peace bro.
>>712499464You first neet
>>712499550Just yesterday he was arguing about splatoon being bad for not having a map maker and how it was such a simple addition that TF2 had it. Completely ignoring its a pc game, needs mod tools and apparently mario maker doing something means any game can.
From here
>>712370402
>>712499641People were literally speculating nintendo going third party at the end of the wii u era, and GC was the peak of Playstation domination with the PS2
>>712499653>>712499667>>712499749Jesus. I hope he's trained a bot to do his shitposting at least.
>>712499234>This gets posted>Schizo starts repeating his anti-Japan posts from last threadNoooooticing.
>>712499819What's his obsession with making people denounce a fandom?
>>712495510>Nintendo games were famous for never going down in price.The games aren't the same as the consoles. Nintendo used to go for a much more extreme razor and blades model, ESPECIALLY with portables. The Game Boy launched at $90, the pocket at $70, the Color at $80, Advance at $100, etc, and the Gamecube was pretty famous for being $99 for damn near half its life, starting in holiday 2003.
Yeah, anything published by Nintendo wasn't going down in price without a Player's Choice rerelease, but they also did those much more often at the time.
>>712499667If anything, he's gotten worse
>>712499829No he still manually seethes every day
he spent a month having a schizo meltdown because someone posted their steam library showing they played AC6 and confirmed that several missions have unskippable cutscenes in them for the story, and he went nuclear because people found out he had never played armored core 6
>>712499829he's just a fucking weirdo. i've never engaged with him directly because he LITERALLY makes NO sense most of the time. i know the term schizo is thrown around here often but he might actually be one.
>>712499935And this one from that same thread was too funny to not save
>>712499653Adult life is a pain and I tend to really enjoy the daily hours I have where I can play video games.
I can't possibly imagine having this much free time and squandering it this badly when I already had to claw my way through squeezing japanese lessons during 5-10 min nuggets of free time over the last 3 years.
>>712499937Glownigger mad he's getting called out.
>>712497312Yeah, catering to the Chinese is like walking on eggshells because you don't know what mundane thing will set those schizos off.
>>712499063>and people were left with a bad taste because basic features not being there at launch.You really need to stop thinking that /v/ and the internet is representative of the general public.
I'm now going to ask him if he's finished that TF2 map every time he turns up.
>>712499941>AC fag>Not playing ACtoo many cases
>Xbawks canned whole portable project.
>PS5 software sales aren't enough to sustain Sony, nor MTX crap
I legit wonder what the fuck they going do from now. Sure GTA6 isn't on switch, but on grand scheme of things it don't fucking matter, Nintendo have userbase and sales.
I've never played tf2 in my life, and at this point, I probably know more about the game than acfag just because I have a friend who's a decently popular tf2 youtuber. Acfag doesn't play video games.
>>712500463desu, I don't have the urge to play GTA6 at launch.
Most Rockstar games I bought only when they had like 75% discount.
Not having GTA6 doesn't hurt much desu, since most likely it will be another sharkcard simulator
>>712499257>>712499323I think the bigger problem is it's the Splatoon team that works on both of these games and they just do the dripfeed thing because that's just the thing they do since the first Splatoon. Splatoon 3 didn't end that long ago and clearly hadn't ended and there's that Splatoon spinoff I assume is done or close to done. It's going to be a while before a new Animal Crossing that I wonder if they'll just do "Switch 2 Edition" and add more on top of New Horizons so they can have something out the door. Honestly that can apply to Smash too. Since Sakurai spent the last few years on Kirby Air Ride.
>>712499440We already know who he is since he doxed himself 8 years ago. He's a literal janitor loser from Canada.
>>712500463Wonder if there'd be mass suicides if R* announced a Switch 2 port.
Here's my favorite one. He's unsurprisingly turned his back on FFVII Rebirth and using it as an example of Japan Bad.
>>712500602If my memories are correct, he used to post about sales or insider info.
>Then tryto open Patreon to monetize it > got the heat from people.> Rage quit and stop posting sale-relatedor something
Reminder to always call ACfag a cunt when he posts
>>712496497The only person I know who has a Switch and no interest in Switch 2 is a guy who never actually uses his Switch and just plays everything on Yuzu/Ryujinx and is convinced that Switch 2 emulation will be good enough and happen fast enough that he'll be playing Mario Kart World before the end of the year.
>>712500156If /v/'s Animal Crossing takes were representative of the general public it would just be porn addicts wanting to fuck chibi cartoon animals
>>712500859Glad that someone will carry on my advice
>>712496497>Outside of being stronger there's no selling pointbut enough about every snoy console ever
>>712494805I am.
Yes.
Thank you for asking.
>>712500725Nah, every main system except the Wii U has gotten their own Animal Crossing and given that the Happy Home games/expansion are basically beta tests for the next set of systems, the Switch 2's entry could go nutty.
>>712501054The recent ones have had you taking over an aspect of the game
>make the town>organize the housesnext is likely to run a shop in order to pay off the house.
>>712500725Nintendo isn't gonna look at NH selling 40 million copies snd go "hm, yeah ok, let's just not make another one".
Same deal with Smash.
>>712495247>WiiU: 12.8 k>YFW the WiiU had better weeks than the Ps5.
>>712491309Why people say Capcom?
They were against of fully abandoning nintendo even during their worst years(n64-gamecube) and always released something exlusively for them. So with switch 2 nothing will change
>>712501054If it's a new game I think it'll be another drip feed again. That's just how that EAD team gets away with shorter turnaround time.
>>712501307My current bet is locales/biomes and vacation homes/RVs. We're already getting a new Tomodachi Life in 6 to 15 months; being basic would just have the two stumbling each other.
I hope they upload the gamecube titles that didn't do so well to see if they do better with a fresh generation.
Batallion wars and chibi robo need another go
>>712501549We got F-Zero GX out the gate and Fire Emblem 9 is already in the pipes, that's pretty much the idea
>>712501549i hope gotcha force gets another chance
>>712501867Oh and Custom Robo
>>712501601The next game will be Mario Strikers, i hope they speed up the releases
>>712501549Chibi robo is already confirmed. They basically announced 90% of the ridiculously expensive titles in one fell swoop. As someone who owns a physical copy of path of radiance, I couldn't be happier.

>>712501549>tendie goycattle are excited about portskek
>>712501382How long do you think it would take to start one from scratch? And when do you think Nintendo needs these series to move system sales? I'm not saying I know but seeing how hard it is for Sony and Microsoft to put out any games at all it doesn't give much confidence. Zelda took 6 years and that game largely recycled the previous map so it's not like Nintendo is immune to long development cycles. And Nintendo is using this game and Mario Party as if they're major releases. They sure as hell don't have time to out out a new Zelda any time soon.
>>712501382desu, I would prefer a new Smash game than for some god-know reason they made a new characters pack and made it Switch 2 only.
>>712501549>>712501867It's Nintendo having old games; don't get your hopes up.

>>712502092They could get away with fighter's pass 3. Seeing that they're still updating Splatoon 3 with content parity they could have the fighters still release on both and have some other kind of content exclusive to Switch 2 like modes. Maybe Smash Run all on the same actual map split screen or Gameshare since there's no way that could run on Switch.

I think having Colo/XD on NSO before the Game Boy (Advance) games basically guarantees that's not going to happen, at the very least not yet. They absolutely want to connect NSO "VC" games to Home at some point, but they are NOT going to do the Genius Sonority developed ones first, if at all.
>>712502747Wii NSO has a goodchance though I think nintendo is going to remaster their wii games instead like DKCR and Skyward Sword. Playing DS games with mouse controls is not the same as using a touch screen

>>712503497this but south korea, china and uk
>>712503537oh wait these are game key card???
Fuck them
>>712503085I'm coping, but I think nintendo is telling third party companies not to mention the game having a switch port until the nintendo direct
>>712503497Do you believe any of us are personally affected by this?
The best you can come up with is mocking the country a company originates from as if we 're going to be offended.
>>712503637No, zero first party games are key card
>>712502030Damn, game key cards got murdered. I hope third party retards rethink this and walk this back. Was it really worth it skimping in producing a physical freakin Puyo Puyo?
>>712503637besides nintendo games, everyone of the third party games are key cards in japan, including the ones in that picture (rune factory and yakuza 0)
>>712503734and thank God for that, I'm 100% positively sure that the Key card BS was Nintendo giving up to greedy devs, they themselves are going to continue to do traditional physical.
>>712503752Unless puyo puyo has alot of voice acting and voice translations, that should not be anymore thana gig at most.
>>712503734>>712503837When did 64gig cards become too small for game dev???
>>712503643I think that's probably the case, too. There was not a single game announced during the Microsoft whatever-their-directs-are-called that had a Switch 2 logo, even though a few of them had Switch logos. That doesn't make any god damn sense unless Nintendo wants to announce them in a Switch 2 centered presentation later in the month.
>>712503121Seriously what a cunt
>>712503902It's not but issue is costs. Something that also plagued n64.

>>712491303Walmart emailed me today claiming they restocked
>>712503085It's too early to tell, it could just be a marketing thing with the Switch 2 announcement being saved for a Nintendo Direct. There's also the possibility of the port coming later for one reason or another, given how recently the Switch 2 was released and rumors of Nintendo being stingy with dev kits.

>>712504348Unironically the timetable of Deltarune's development is probably the best indicator we have on whether or not Switch 2 was actually delayed.

>>712491128 (OP)>Switch 2 – 947.931 (947.931)
>>712503902In some cases, 64GB is beyond overkill. Like Puyo Tetris 2S, which is only 3.2GB. That's more of a "Why the fuck did Nintendo not give a smaller card option, this thing would fit on a 4GB card so why isn't that an option?" than a "greedy ass devs wanting me to download with a game key card!" situation. Like, I'm still not gonna buy it game key card or not because fuck them for putting out a Game Key Card, but I get it.
>>712504494I think they just did it before Nintendo told anyone not to do it. That was announced like a year ago, wasn't it?
>>712504727I will never understand why people are still peddling this nonsense about Trump. Regardless of what you think about his political machinations, there was never a point in time where he thought "yup, I need to fuck over Nintendo and save the almighty Xbox".
>>712504503So it isn't just me? I thought it was my browser and/or extensions.
>>712504859>That's more of a "Why the fuck did Nintendo not give a smaller card option, this thing would fit on a 4GB card so why isn't that an option?"And yet everyone complained about Switch cards being too small.
>>712504925No lol, it's been months like this, I think.
>>712504740Now that you mention it, doesn't Ch. 3 have a whole lot more mouse-related content than Ch. 4?
Given that, perhaps the original plan was to release just Ch. 3 alongside the Switch 2's launch.
>>712504859I have no idea why Nintendo still hasn't figured out the card situation. I imagine there is some sort of production nonsense going on. But even if they offered a 16 GB chip, I'm sure there would be plenty of devs who would bite the bullet and place their 1 GB games in actual physical media.
>>712502030>astroflop still hasn't even hit 100k has there ever been a piece of shovelware that was astroturfed even half as hard as this shit was?
>>712504994to also be fair about that, the biggest switch card was 32GB, I think they should have at least had a 16GB card available for devs at launch, and they should've introduced the Game Key Cards later.
>>712504994They actually had 64GB carts, and slot supports even bigger sizes but those are only for development.
>>712504859Something westoids and kike cocksucking devs like square seem to be forgetting is nintendo isn't discontinuing switch 1 carts.
Honestly this whole situation is a stroke of genius from nintendo, they are basically giving devs 3 options:
>1. Optimize your fucking game and be happy with a switch 1 release, then enjoy the massive install base and people buying your game for switch 2 improvements.>2. Release modern goyslop, but cough up the extra 64gb cart costs.>3. Don't optimize, jew out, use a game key or outright code in an empty box, then enjoy the install base boycotting your ass.
>>712505112Part of me thinks that game key cards are a way for Nintendo to control future MIG Switch situations. I genuinely have no idea why they would offer only 64 GB cards at launch.
>>712504884MS are also one of the only FAGMAN companies that have been kinda ignoring him. Nadella wasn't at the Inauguration. They didn't change the Gulf of Mexico and they also recommitted to DEI shit.
>>712504884He was fucking over everyone because he was retarded, Nintendo made him kneel though, that's why the Switch 2 is still affordable and broke records for the best selling system launch.
As I said, Nintendo and gamers won.
>>712505168Huh. That actually makes more sense than it should've.
Why would anyone spend their time willingly LARPing as boards schizos. Why.
>>712491752Nintendo was also supply constrained but they took longer to amass stock. Japan consumers are up to their 5th lottery
>>712505342all snoys are mindbroken
>>712505342>LarpThis is no larp they are real and schizo
>>712505168>>1. Optimize your fucking game and be happy with a switch 1 release, then enjoy the massive install base and people buying your game for switch 2 improvements.
This would be ideal, but the problem is not every game is going to have a Switch 1 version, and even if it did, you'd still have to download the upgrade patch separately if it's on a Switch 1 cart, which is also defeating the purpose of releasing it on physical media.
>>712505168>>2. Release modern goyslop, but cough up the extra 64gb cart costs.
you forgot to mention this also means getting listed as a switch 2 game, padding out the (frankly rather weak) library at launch month
now that you listed this shit out it makes a lot of sense
nintendo has the entire industry by the balls, no wonder snoyim like faglus, harada and CH are throwing such tantrums
>>712505296Nintendo definitely won. I'm just confused as to why people would even bring up Trump other than for shitposting purposes. These threads are sufficiently noisy as is, so there is no need to bring up /pol/.
>>712505368>5th lotteryjesus, imagine losing the lottery for the rest of the year
>>712505398>and even if it did, you'd still have to download the upgrade patch separately if it's on a Switch 1 cart,you don't actually, games get baseline improvements by force just from running on the switch 2
the "patches" are for pseudo-remakes that outright improve the graphics/framerates more than what simply forcing quality graphics with performance framerates would because those improvements wouldn't be on the original release
also by now the switch 2 is out, so games can come in with the patch baked in
>>712505421And it's not even all of Atlus. It's just the Persona Team and Hashino being faggots. Metaphor looks like shit and at least 4 times worse than SMTV Vengeance and yet they're not bothering releasing it on Switch or Switch 2, while the Raidou remake is being released there. Chances are they're porting P3R and P4R to Switch 2 if Sega threatens to castrate Hashino for leaving money on the table.
>Digimon releasing same time as AZ
Ouch.
>>712505240Setting up production lines is not cheap or trivial to do. It's why they never offered a cheap dock only Switch without a screen at a cheaper price even though there was demand for it. Having 3 different cart sizes being manufactured was probably a pain in the ass for them to manage. I do think 16GB would've been a nice compromise between GKC and 64GB but Nintendo's bean counters probably made the determination it wouldn't be worth the trouble to set up production for it.
I feel like this thing will sell 170M-200M
>>712505635>oct 3rd (digimon) vs oct 16th(pokemon)they got a two weeks, not too bad
>>712505649All of this is ignoring that the new higher speed carts they're using DON'T COME IN A SIZE SMALLER THAN 64GB
https://vsrecommendedgames.miraheze.org/wiki/Switch_2
>games set to be $80 for digital, and $90 for physical.
What's with all the lies surrounding the pricing?
>>712505461Because trump directly tried to fuck with Nintendo. Don't forget he started his massive war the day after the Switch 2 was unveiled and people were worried it would jack up the price of the Switch 2 to $600 or $700 and Nintendo had to delay pre-orders as a result.. Instead he caved to Nintendo and gamers won because the price stayed at $450
>>712505168At the risk of sounding like a complete retard, why wouldn't it be possible to use S1 cards but just paint them red? I know they have much different read speeds, but wouldn't this solve the problem for a lot of smaller games?
Yakuza 0 could have been plausibly ported to the original Switch, sure. But SEGA aren't exactly the kings of optimisation and 64 GB cards are still overkill for that game.
>>712505803Bowser himself said the tariffs had no bearing on the switch price point. Stop spreading fake news
>>712505696Depends on how quick shit like pokemon ends up on the system. Definitely think that's overshooting it, right now, without some big generation defining game like botw was for switch 1 (no one owned a wiiu), I'm guessing in the 120-130 million range.
>>712505743Well that too. I'm still optimistic the price of the 64GB carts will come down as production ramps up more.
>>712505803>Because trump directly tried to fuck with Nintendo.This wasn't against Nintendo, anon. There is no reason to insist on this. You've made your politics known.
>>712505790this system might have the most fake news i've ever witnessed
did the PS5/Series X get this much shit on it?
>>712505921>>712505980>StrawmanThey didn't have to raise prices because trump caved
Stop playing damage control for the loser. We got enough snoyfags here.
>>712505906honestly no clue, if not the prestige of using SD express carts for the load times on switch 2 games and nintendo's autism over it, then maybe nothing is stopping a dev from just asking if they can use a ns1 cart and putting it on a ns2 box
>Harada with Big GAME EVAH
>Sega still have multiple big boy projects
>Capcom probably sweating about PS5 not being enough to support whatever release
This going be fun gen.
>>712506063PS5 had more fake news. Difference was, it was in a positive direction, not a negative direction.
>>712505648Nintendo better be working on Pikmin 5 as we speak.
>>712504859we've seen multiple games that could fit in a cart having to download a part of it. capcom and sega did it for multiple of thir collections on the switch. why even bother putting out smaller cartridges when nobody was using it?
>>712506063>did the PS5/Series X get this much shit on it?no
>>712506116>>Harada with Big GAME EVAHpretty sure that was unknown 9
>>712505696Software will make or break the Switch 2. The next Direct will definitely be interesting. They're already getting ahead of themselves and announcing Splatoon projects, which is a good sign, but they kinda need to drop something big like a new 3D Mario for the holiday or something.
>>712505926Z-A is coming out this year and will probably not run very well on the original Switch. As for an exclusive Switch 2 title, Gen 10 is absolutely happening next year for the 30th anniversary and will be exclusive no doubt about it.
>>712506130what positive fake news did it get? All i remember was the "magic SSD" but that's just marketing.
>>712505635I'm thinking of buying both on PlayAsia for save some money. It'll be delayed a bit, but I have enough of a backlog to work with that.

There is no room for doubts or uncertainly. Their fear is our victory.
>>712505614Metaphor's on that weird internal engine Atlus has while SMT V and P3R are Unreal 4. I agree it's bizarre that game looks like Three fucking Houses despite being developed for PS4 but that could be the consequence of using tech developed for the PS3 originally. Or Studio Zero are just retarded and the technically minded people stayed in P Studio.
>>712506116Sony could bite the bullet and get ass raped by the switch 2 but still get a good share of the market or drop the PS6 for 2027.
>>712502030Mario Kart is the only switch 2 game that's selling
total port death
>>712506114Damned if you do, damned if you don't. I mean, I see the problem, and Nintendo is probably incredibly autistic about red cards and all. But they need to be more pragmatic on this because people still seek physical media, especially in their own domestic market. It isn't just about resale value.
Is this the tendie containment thread?
>>712506293Magic ssd was the big one. A lot of lies about its performance in general, even though ps5 versions of crossgen games often had a lower framerate than their ps4 counterparts. The whole shift to dollar sales over unit sales.
>>712506225That's the one thing Nintendo is missing from their 2025 line-up because they usually don't depend on Game Freak to carry the holiday season.
>>712506383it's close to being out of stock, even though its bundled to hell
>>712506383>release a bunch of late ports>in the country that famously doesn't like late ports>release them mostly as key cards, stealth digital>in the country that's so resistant to digital, they still regularly use fax machinesbravo

>>712506092They didn't have to raise prices because they already had received shipments and stock prepared. Again, give up on the fake news false flag
>>712506797I got a kick out of clips from GDC where Cerny was talking about SSDs like some space age technology in his faggy voice in an empty auditorium with literal cardboard cutout standees for an audience.
>>712506657there was a reason
it was because the switch was selling more units but was half the price of the PS5
>>712506874>Trying to ignore the fact that future shipments would have been subject to trump's batshit crazy tariffs and Nintendo would not have eaten those costs.Cope all you want, trump caved and Nintendo won.
>>712506851Way things are going China will just have its own native brands that dominate domestically.

Dollar sales make sony look good despite losing ton of money. it's like PS360 all over again.
>>712506913yes but for the top 30
>>712500725Nigger.
You need a severe update.
Animal Crossing and Splatoon ARE both EPD5.
Yes.
BUT they are NOT the same dev teams anymore.
Each IP has their own dedicated development team now.

>>712507181>>712507220Nintendo won, trump lost, you lost too. And Gamers won.
Simple as.
>>712507021Nah, even they leave Hoyoverse now. It is hard to dominate Chinese market because their market is still volatile to anything. I am imagining that's one of the reasons on why Nintendo is not that serious in exploring Chinese market yet.
>>712507249This is an extremely silly attempt at a falseflag, anon.
The Trump shit is a new trolling tactic. Just ignore it.

>>712507073>>712507321My point was market penetration by foreign brands seems extremely uncommon and difficult. Steam is the only non-essential tech brand that has seemed to achieve genuine market penetration.
>>712507472>Nintendo kneeling to the no.1 global market to sell their product means Trump lost somehowmake it make sense
>>712507582My point is that even local brands still have difficulty to dominate the market because the market is still volatile.
>>712507582Companies unironically falling for the Chinese market meme is one of the silliest things to have ever happen. Not only because of the genuinely disturbing business practices that it inspired, but also because China is a very fickle mistress in more ways than one. It's surprising how China even exist at this point, that to me is the real Chinese miracle.

>>712508310>>712508390See
>>712508328Do you really think Nintendo was going to tank a 43% trump tax on the Switch 2 and not pass it on the consumer? It's great they made trump cave, so we don't have to humor that horrible sitution.
