Lol, there were plenty of weeks the switch 1 outsold the ps5 by 100:1 or more. Some of them even 200:1.

Guys, don't forget Nintendo makes it hell for resellers in Japan for switch2:
Region lock.
Working with Mecari and Yahoo to stop listing resell for switch 2 ( Mecari only stop auction)
Extra stocks
Meanwhile Snoy:
-Low stock
- Most of the sold ps5 got smugged to CN and SEA
- Change button scheme following the west.

>>712508212
I thought Nintendo were supposed to be producing enough supply for the demand

Seems like a shame that they've shafted their domestic market

>>712507776
get fucked square

>>712508241
It does contain one of the greatest games of all time.

Sony here, we just found out that we actually shipped an extra million PS2 units at launch back in 2000, making it the biggest opening for a console in Japan.


Please close the thread now or else measures will taken.

>>712508303
Stores can only hold up so much inventory. There are many bottlenecks during this kind of hardware launch, and Nintendo isn't the only one to have faced this kind of business reality. Things will normalise in the future. But regardless, this was an astonishing launch for the Switch 2 by any metric.

>>712508487

This is probably one of the most absolutely fucking retarded things Sony has ever done. They could've made it optional, but no. It was also originally based on Japanese semiotics, but fuck that. I wish I was a fly on the wall during those Sony HQ meetings, genuinely baffling executive decision.

Thats the eternal issue for Nintendo since the N64, they can sell first party games but third party sales are a barren wasteland.

>>712509261
It's even more crazy since the Switch 2 lets you swap A and B button functions in the system menu. That's bad when Nintendo is giving people more options than you do.

>>712508156
Hyrule Warriors is also shovelware.

>>712509409
It helps that Nintendo has a Japan language only model at a much cheaper price point.

Hmmm..... No.

>>712509261
It was a humiliation ritual. Before Concord they were going all in with the Hermen Hulst push towards live service and Western woke shit.

>>712507689
For developers, launch is the one place you never want to release your game unless you're extremely confident in its legs, because the best game at launch (usually 1st party) will cannabalize all the early sales.
I'd bet there are a few games completed and ready to release but unannounced like Persona 3 reload that were held off for this reason. Similarly I think Hollow Knight Silksong is secretly complete but waiting to shadow drop during the summer direct when people are ready for a game besides Mario Kart.

>>712509409
Demand wasn't soft in the west, it was still the best selling console in every region ever for a launch, Nintendo just forbid retailers from making more than 50% of their launch stock available for pre order in order to fuck over scalpers. Previous console launches you'd see a target or best buy get like, 60 pre orders and 10 non pre order units. This time around it was like 60 pre order units and 60 non pre order launch units.
This is the first time a company took proper precautions to actually fuck scalpers up the ass

If is a Switch 2 version of a game, then yeah, the regular game will boot up on a Switch 1 and the improvement version on a Switch 2

Why?

Oh boy now the delays make sense

Why do third parties even bother with the Switch? It's a dead-end console. Why would you even bother with a target audience that doesn't want to play anything but bing-bing-wahoo? Japanese gamers only play GAAS.

How well do the Katamari games run on Switch?

>>712512424
Yeah sony is evil for designing PS5 controllers to die after 2 months to force people to keep buying replacements

>>712512424
Has there been any report of someone breaking that part?

TBA
Fire Emblem Remake

Some of the Switch 2 editions of games are in the 20-40% range which I guess it means they didn't have large printings for those.

>>712512263
>Astro Bot has sold 2 million copies which is better than most PS5 exclusives. I bet they will boost it by bundling it eventually.

They already bundled it

>>712512510
Of course not, but theres that one retarded snoy that smashed one with a hammer multiple times and then tried to pretend the switch 2 was bad because it broke from that

>>712512510
No but there are reports of people pinching their fingers because the magnets are too strong. Funny shit.

>>712512584
Bing bing wahoo isn't games. It's the real moviegames.

Everyone with eyes can see that the shitch poo is extremely front loaded. Dont cry when it declines by 40% next week.

>>712512584
What happens when Remake doesn't even break 200k lifetime on Switch?

>>712512525
>Fire Emblem Remake
I dont know if it can be released this year, maybe early 2026 just to let space for the other games already announced
>Mario + Rabbids
Was this a remaster or a new entry? I remember some leaks about this
>3D Mario (rumored)
Should have been released this year, is the 40th anniversary of Mario, should berevealed at least in the next direct
>Zelda Remake (rumored)
I hope the OoT remake is fake, and the remake is for something else like the oracles or Zelda 1 and 2

>>712512153
God of War, Spider-Man and Helldivers are doing fine, and Horizon can be fixed by getting a new protagonist. Abandoning Uncharted was clearly a huge mistake tho, and so was not making a Bloodborne sequel.

Even Intergalactic: The Talmudic Prophet can be fixed by just making the protagonist not bald and letting players customize her outfit so she can look less dykeish. Obviously that's gonna be hard with Druckmann in charge of Naughty Dog.

Stellaris Blade is also doing great on PC so that clearly should tell Sony where the money is.

>>712512823

>>712512908
Nobody gives a shit about the older Fire Emblem games. Echoes didn't even sell half of Awakening and Fates. And the so called "back to basics" nostalgia pandering Engage was a turbo flop that ruined the franchise's momentum. Remake Awakening and 3H and build from there, stop wasting time.

>>712512475
I'll remind the stupid inbred nigger that Kirby Forgotten Land is at 7-8mil.
Luigi's Mansion3 is over 10mil.

>>712512850
I'm not gonna hate on those but western studios are so poorly managed they end imploding upon internal drama. Bungie is the first to fall. Intergalactic is gonna end flopping because of excessive pozzed crap. ND hasn't done anything relevant since TLOU which was a 10/10 survival horror game.

15th anniversary just passed and Nintendo were mysteriously silent. I think we're getting updates for all 4 games plus a new game announced.

>>712512850
>goy of war and stammerman are doing fine
Idk bro. Having a GoW and SM game that was canceled doesn't exactly scream good. Not to mention the Insomniac leak made it very apparently Sony loses a lot of money SM to Disney. Horizon at this point I'm just convinced does not have any staying power even if you chucked Aloy.

>>712513254
>sold
Bundled

>>712513261
these are some of the amazing exclusive offerings

>>712513156
Bungie was always shit. Hermen Hulst was a turbo nigger for pushing the 2 billion acquisition and he should be banned from ever setting foot in Japan.

>>712513261
This one is peak tho.

>>712513040
Echoes release was vastly overshadowed by the Switch. You'd have to be an inbreed monkey to not understand there were more factors to Echoes poor sales other than "no one cares" and I can't be arsed to get into anything with Engage because that just inevitably devolves to endless shitflinging.

>>712513074
Horizon got instant hype because of the robot dinosaurs. Aloy is shit but that doesn't change the fact that the enemies are really cool.

>>712513501
It's kind of depressing to me to think that even during their golden era (Halo) there was a lot of bad shit going on behind the scenes.

>>712513261
my personal GOTY

>>712513563
I loved engage, the gameplay is much better than 3houses.
3 house while fine, it dragging too much and one of the house is like after though compare to other 3.

>>712513501
3.6 billion. Almost as much as disney paid for all of star wars and marvel. For destiny fucking two.

>>712513395
The God of War and Spider Man games that got cancelled were both live service slop. Concord and Marathon proved that push was an insane mistake.

>>712513563
Opinions don't matter when it comes to sales, Echoes was simply a flop. What people want is slightly edgier stories and serious character designs with a shipping simulator. If IS had made another 3H-style game but with better visuals and performance and maps that don't feel like baby's first FE we would be looking at a completely different future for FE right now.

>>712513261
>Gamer Quest
>it's hangman
still counts I guess as an exclusive

>>712513658
Even Halo CE was the product of shady moves on the part of Bungie. It was supposed to be a Mac game before Microsoft snatched it.

>>712513776
No if IS want money they only need to make another FE Heroes.

>>712513706
Acquiring Star Wars was also a mistake tho.

>>712513851
FE Heroes needs characters from the games.

>>712513685
I enjoyed Engage as well. 3H's wasn't terrible, but I can't bring myself to play another route past the first I did because all the in-between shit that isn't story or maps is like an instant tranquilizer. Can't stand the fans that it cultivated either since most don't give a shit about FE past 3H, but that is another issue.

>>712513151
1. the primary discussion is DK not Metroid.
2. zelda never crossed 10mil.
BotW was like 4x the best zelda ever. if not 5x.
Tropical Freeze got a nice buff from the Switch release.
Bananza can easily cross 5mil or higher.

>>712514534
>In a new report, The Game Post claims that Gummy Bears is described as a team-based competitive MOBA, which is planned to be aimed at a younger audience with a brighter, more vibrant art style. The game is described as having “lo-fi and cozy vibes.”
>Gummy Bears will reportedly use a percentage-based health system, which is described as being similar to Nintendo‘s Super Smash Bros. franchise. It’s also claimed that players can be knocked off the map entirely, also inspired by Smash Bros.
i guess that's a thing
we'll see how it turns out, but it might be the most promising thing from them

>>712513123

Guys, don't be too hard on Sony....They just had to layoff 40% of Sony Bend staff, and cancel the live service game that they had been working on since Days Gone.....again

>>712513123
And of course nobody commenting about this.

>>712514831
>Sony Music
Not relevant to games retard

>>712514409
Nintendo spent $1 million on acquiring retro. 0.027% of what sony spent on acquiring bungie. In exchange, nintendo got 3 metroid prime games (soon to be 4) and two donkey kong country games, not to mention, other minor development work they've done in conjunction with other teams. Sony got marathon and concord.

>>712514409
As the other two said.
Pretty damn good.
Had to rescue bamco singapore's arse even.
BTW sony and bamco lost eternal rights and access to Monolith Soft one of the most talented dev studios out there.
And Next Level Games is a solid side team as well.

>>712514409
Well, prime 4 is the reason I'm buying a switch 2, and I've heard the same from multiple others. How many people are buying a ps5 for marathon?

>>712514797
It seems the Studio Bend....Got Bent.
*Puts on sunglasses* YUHHHHHHHHHHHH

>>712512618
Probably publishers, stores and consumers basically all psychically coordinated to decide "fuck it just buy digital."
What are the third party games that are on-card right now? Rune Factory and Cyberpunk. Everything else is just a questionable use of plastic.

> snoys attacked walmart, coke fans, and pringles fans in order to insult tendies who bought switch 2
What happened?

>>712514536
They wasted a lot of their time in the gayest Disney game shovelware apparently. Of course Nintendo archived that stupid project.

>>712515112
oh right, that melody thing that was soulless and god awful
i think they spent 2 years on that

>>712510968
>You see, I can perform the surgery and have the PS5 on at the same time because there are no games to play to distract me!

>>712515224

>>712515084
did they? Missed that news.
But people who pre-ordered Switch2 got a free coke + pringles can delivered to them with the console.
Was a strange thing.

>>712513987
Is Donkey Kong on Metroid or Zelda level?

>>712514409

>>712515112
>>712515202
Sure but that's utterly irrelevant to Prime4 given bamco was in charge of it first and shoved it to their least skilled dev team.
Like retards.
Why the fuck is Nintendo working with them after such an insult?

>>712515403
actually makes me want to pre-order from walmart
wonder what weird shit I'll get if I pre-order death stranding 2

>>712514328
Bungie also told Sony to cancel. TLOU Online which would have been actually fun.

>>712514350

I thought that was cancelled.

>>712515538

>>712515421
Between both.
No idea why you are playing this game of 'i'm the bigger retard ever jurf a derf durrrrr'.
Kirby was NOT a 8mil seller IP till forgotten land. Nor was Luigi's Mansion. Hell even Metroid saw a 33% boost on the Switch.
DKB is going to cross 5mil without a damn issue. You fags are retarded.

>>712511137
Borderlands 4 is on September 12. And surprisingly, I'm getting it. Looks like a solid port.

Monolith should focus on making the next project X zone (in my dream)

>>712515031
Marathon is not exclusive and neither is Metroid Prime 4.

>>712514797
People don't realize it, but this is one of the reasons why Nintendo franchises have such a high amount of loyal buyers. If they were like Sony, half their studios would have been axed during the Wii U era, Retro Studios wouldn't exist anymore, series like Metroid and Fire Emblem would be talked about today in the same way Jak and Daxter and Ape Escape are. People don't buy Mario and Zelda because they're mindless drones, it's because the brand is attached to the same development teams and philosophy that made some of their favorite games decades ago.

Tbf, we can always have a replacement, even the SRW team from Bandai also changed their whole producer team

>>712515673

Well most companies would have shelved Metroid after Other M. It does show that Nintendo has higher trust in developers than most companies.

>"it's a fact"
>he is literally factually wrong

>>712515975
The idea of an actual "tendie" is almost nonexistent, especially when you compare it to a snoy. There are VERY few "nintendo fans", what there are are mario fans, metroid fans, pikmin fans, fire emblem fans, kirby fans, the craven subhumans known as modern pokemon fans, donkey kong fans, splatoon fans, zelda fans, animal crossing fans, smash bros fans, etc...
They buy nintendo because nintendo systems have the games they enjoy, and often don't like several of those other series and don't get alone with their fans. Snoys buy a playstation because it says sony on the box, and then buy a few 3rd parties, usually annual sports and shooters, and maybe had some cinematic movieslop bundled in.

>>712512834
I'm honestly fucking floored in this industry full of remakes and remasters that Zelda 1 has never gotten a remake of aby kind.

>>712516448
It has gotten as much of a remake as SMB1 has, the thing is they're kinda obscure.

>>712516217
its actually 9 threads if you count the two seethe threads the snoy made

>>712516078
And you are ignoring facts about reality.

>>712516184
Tanabe is an EXTREMELY awful fit for Paper Mario.
Extrememely bad.
That doesn't make him bad perse, but he needs to work on games he actually likes and cares about.
He has been open about hating RPGs quite a bit from Super Paper Mario up to Color Splash at least.
I personally quite enjoyed Federation Force and think Nintemdo needs to keep it running. Make it into an IP that rivals and crubs stomps TitanFall. It has EVERYTHING there for that.
Plus he did good work on LM3, and Strikers Battle League was good fun.
So he has talent it just needs to be on more action or exploration based games....give PM to someone else.
Though yes, Retro needs to be fucking tard wrangled. Just like MercurySteam, Platinum, etc.

He doesn't hate RPGs, it's just that he's worked on stuff like SMRPG, Mother 3,etc. And got Taro Kudo, one the writers from Moon RPG (the game that inspired Undertale) to co-direct Paper Mario.

So it's just infused with people who want to subvert the genre. Hell it was even the original Director of the 1st 3 games idea to make SPM a platformer, not Tanabe.

I've read all of the interviews and he never said that. Hell you're probably confusing it for what Kawade said post SPM because he was the one who said that the games shouldnt be defined by genre conventions.

Hilarious that the Zelda Notes app is another kick in the dick to journos because it has a full map so guides won't be needed anymore.

You are fucking retyarded piece of shit
They even slowed monsters down in 4(zinogre as example), so fights would be more cinematic, just like they did in world later

>>712520210
As much as I appreciate the intent behind this post there very much is a fundamental difference between the "cinematic" nature of 4U and Gen Ult when compared to world.

>>712519809
>>712520210
Anon, it's just like when World kids are complaining about Wilds. It was their very first monster hunter, so they deluded themselves about it being better than it is.
Same as people calling their first mh "hardest".

>>712520292
What are you talking about? There was nothing cinematic about gu
It was very fast paced arcade like game with no unnecessary time wasting "cinematic" shit, just like fu was compared to dos, just like p3rd was to tri.
And no, a lot of shit from World came straight from 4

I have a question related to key cards and cartridge size.
People keep saying that only 64GB carts are available, OR key cards.
What's the source for this claim? How do we know this? Did a developer complain?

Fuck Japan

>>712520483
It was included in a leak from Arc System Works which also revealed they have two Switch 2 exclusives in development.

the fuck?
Thought it was just a tip guide for korok seeds or quests.

>>712514093
Fire Emblem and its support system is older than Persona.
Indeed I would say Fire Emblem's greatest strength over Persona 3 and onwards is that every FE character isn't warped by the self-insert's gravity and Engage's most significant failure is how much its party dynamics regressed in the wake of 3H.

I feel like it's not really a coincidence that when they keep trying to go backwards and nostalgiabait with shit nobody cares about and de-emphasize the support system, e.g. Echoes and Engage, it's like all the post-Awakening momentum just straight up stops existing.

>>712520445
>a lot of shit from World came straight from 4
I'm not denying that, but the utter obsession World has with presentation is unique to itself. 4U meanders but World fucking jacks itself off to completion every fucking Hunt holy SHIT.

it has like... 150 new voices memories

>>712520483
From the arcsys leak but also is something you can easily find if you know what specs to look for.
Switch 2 carts use SD XC memory, the absolute minimum amount of XC that is being manufactured is 64gb scraps, with most big yields going to 1-8TB products.

>>712520881
I thought 2 TB was the max for SDXC, and 4 TB and above is for the new SDUC.

>>712507053 (OP)
>ps5 finally beat switch
PS5CHAD??? WW@????

>>712520881
So it's literally a matter of time until the SD consortium starts prioritizing EX over slower BUS models (also, btw anon XC is simply a format, XC uses exFAT, EX is the recent high speed protocol and the one Nintendo is using, but EX is only compatible with XC and UC.)

How smooth does the game feel with the upgrade? Was gonna ignore so I saw it as a meme option but that's surprising.
>achievements
for what?

>>712520483
It has to deal with how Flash Express itself works.
It really just does not properly function under 64gb of storage for whatever reasons.
So they had to go with the 64gb size.
I doubt Nintendo is thrilled their own 4-6gb games barely fill those carts as well, but they know their customers want full physical.

>>712521041
>I thought 2 TB was the max for SDXC
Yes, but that's the data/storage controller.
I'm talking about the actual flash memory chips used for storage, read: SSDs.

>>712521164
>How smooth does the game feel with the upgrade?
Haven't had anything go below 60, and I'm pretty sure a lot of textures were upgraded as well as reflection effects. The Hylian Shield for example reflects light much more realistically, shadows are crisper, etc.

Classic monster hunter style intros
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGHbFkuZQp4
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yEU380CbZ0
4/world/wilds style intros
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqKl0g4AOlU
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpZcflnDj-E

Very obvious difference in presentation
In 4 and others games like it, Capcom really feels need to fellato player, to show how he's suepr special hunter and "different", while monster presentation itself isn't important outside of how he interacts with super special mary sue player

>>712521164

Niggers like you dont even try.
Massive amounts of projection there btw. Easy to tell you started with G/GU and need to defend that faggotry.
I started on 3ult btw. I have no shame in it. I'm aware it neutered beasts from tri or FU.
But worlds, rise, amnd wilds borrow far more from gens WHICH WAS COMPLETELY DESIGNED TO DRAW IN FAGGOTS THAT DON'T LIKE MONSTER HUNTER by adding all the gay casual bitch shit like arts, styles, neutered monsters, etc AS SAID BY THE DEVS.
Kill yourself genstwat.
Your shit huffing fag game has denied MH a new weapon type for over TEN fucking years. Again by the devs own admittance! just so they could put in arts.
Scumbag shitcur.

In fact, I think PlayStation still has a chance to make a comeback by adding more Japanese games to its menu.

>Show me example of new intrusive game feature that gouldn't be ignroed in gu, fu, p3rd or rise
have fun ignoring those arts I guess, or styles. retard. Nevermind again that weapon and armor crafting was made worse by having those category requirements.
Even the food system was far worse than 3ult or 4ult by giving you a list of like 80 fucking repeats for no damned reason.
You aren't even hidding the fact you started with gens and coping with how it degraded the series to its current state.
>Also, you are bitching about hunter arts, but 4 was the first game that added gay movements to weapons and real combos, outside of single hunter controls page from previous game. And first game that tried to force hunter to do said combos
May as well argue that spirit slash on LS is a shit addition, or Hunting Horn rolling attacks and notes into a singular action, rather than having an attack mode vs performance mode is shit. Never mind that gens kept all the combos 4ult has in guild style...why the fuck are you ignoring this?

They should have never stopped doing that. Metroid prime 1 and 2 had really good interactive 3D maps you could rotate on the official Nintendo site with all collectables on them. I did print them out back then because no access to inet at home.

It literally returned most of monsters neutered by 4 to their former glory
>Plus nigger I started on 3ult and already acknowledged it degraded some beasts like barroth.
How would you know that, if you never played previous games? Just because you heard that? Lol. 4u kids are such 4u kids, never change
>have fun ignoring those arts I guess, or styles. retard.
Well yeah, I will, since fu core design philosophy of ichinose games was that player shouldn't be forced to do gay shit, that differs them from 4u,world and wilds where they force you do new cool thing that devs came up with
>Even the food system was far worse than 3ult or 4ult by giving you a list of like 80 fucking repeats for no damned reason.
That's just your opinion, and wrong one
Just like p3rd before, it simplified buffs and let you to get what you wanted right away, instead of mixing food every time.
Of course 4u kid like you wouldn't understand, you are used to "world style food system" after all
>You aren't even hidding the fact you started with gens and coping
projecting much, huh

Eric, sametrannying won't save you

imagine if splatoon raiders releases in two months

the absolute bloodbath

>>712526573
Now we know why there were barely any switch 2 games in the 3 big showcases that happened last week.

>>712526324
He's right, what's the point of a luxury product anyone can get?

>>712526475
>low effort and full priced 3rd party rushed port slop stays on the shelves
Very nice.

>[SW2] Cyberpunk 2077 Ultimate Edition (Spike Chunsoft, 06/05/25) – 4,070 (New)
36K1800fps and they still didn't buy the game...
CD Projekt sold their soul to the devil and this is what they got in return.

>>712526324
I genuinely can't imagine this. It's horrible.

>>712507280
how does this account for the PS2 coming out months earlier in japan?

>>712526702
Actually, 55k is very bad sales for rune factory, pretty sure only remake of 3 sold worse
Granted it's unplayable on switch, and pc version came out too, but still. THis is not good sales for RF, they always above 100k

>>712526889
Only Cyberpunk is full price, no? And that one is very high effort. Everything else is cheaper.

>>712526702
I'm shocked by the NS2 version performing so bad.

>>712527306
Didn't RF5 almost kill the series or something, /v/ and Japan didn't like it at all

>>712526798
I hope its a meaty game>>712526798

>>712527725
They're both in the same range of remaining stock (40-60%) meaning the Switch 1 version must have shipped around 80-100k units and the Switch 2 one 20-25k.

>>712511939
Sony Music is not Playstation
Sony Pictures is not Playstation

Sony is a megacorporation

>b-b-b-but they are under the same umbrella

So are multiple countries in the EU

>>712527738
japan bitched about patch not fixing critical bugs but bringing unnecessary thigns at that time like gay marriages, but were happy with it at the end of day after all bug fixes.
/v/ generally doesn't play story of seasons and rune factory games and only bitching about them, so kinda who cares about these fags.

>>712527738
RF5 still sold very well overall, even if I think it was really bad at launch.
>>712527825
Ah ok, makes more sense then. But still only half stock sold? Doesn't seem to be a smash hit in Japan, which is unfortunate because I'd call this a return to quality.

>>712527920
Switch 2 and Mario Kart World this week were expensive and monopolized attention. I'd wait to see how these other Switch 2 games fare over the next month before making judgments.

>>712526693
Ah yes your new boogeyman.

>>712517206
Nigga a RTX 4090 is struggling to run that piece of shit and you think the Switch 2 will do?

It's 100% going to be a new game for the Switch 2, for better or for worse

>>712517837
This is the case for almost every game on Steam as Chinese are also the the majority of users as it grew a lot in the past 10 years

PC gaming is HUGE in China

>>712526324
Hopefully he killed himself after posting this

>>712526324
This has to be satire

>>712517837
Why do gook fags and chink fags regularly shitpost about their games and gacha being better than Japanese games and gacha? Is it butthurt from WW2?

>>712515224
KEK

>>712528341
Yep, just like that dumb rock in the middle of the ocean Koreans get mad about.

>>712516184
Tanabe also killed Chibi Robo and almost put the final nail in Metroid's coffin with Federation Force, the man is washed up beyond belief

>>712528489
>final nail in Metroid's coffin with Federation Force
Its such a shame, the series is dead and we've never had another metroid game since
Except fed force was a spinoff and we've had metroid games since with a new one later this year.
Chibi robo is going to be on the gamecube VC so that might even get some attention for the first time in 20 years

>>712527306
It's also a spin-off where several of the things people like about the games take a backseat, so it has that going against it

>>712527968
Yeah I think all other games sorta got overshadowed in general. But I'm not sure sure if it was this severe when BotW launched.

>>712513454
>>712513558
>>712513673
i'll admit i laughed, but don't pretend it wasn't you fags who edited the wikipedia page

>>712528782
I mean if that game not on other console or PC... they technically correct

lol hes starting to spam Switch 2 shitpost threads again

>>712528782
I had a look at who keeps adding stuff. It's pretty much one guy

>>712529334
so it's 100% a snoy and not a falseflagger

>>712529334
so much dedication, shovelware game is still a game, and exclusive is still exclusive

>>712529334
kek

>>712509138
none of that looks the same you dumb nigger
