H-How can this be!?
Just a few hours ago, /v/ was telling me nobody was buying 3rd Party software on Switch 2? Now the stats are showing it's 20% higher than the Switch 1 launch!?
Was /v/... wrong?
FAKE NEWS!
It's damage control by Nintendo so that third parties don't jump ship to another platform
>>713124538 (OP)Well, just don't look into the actual switch 1 launch titles...
>>713124538 (OP)>Nigger dring was the one that started this "fact".Holy fucking shit always felt it was off somehow, like it was somehow an artificial narrative, just like his "wonder was done by the C team" shit.
Just grifters griting like usual. I mean, what do you expect from port titles that people already bought before? Especially when we are only 2 weeks away from the consoles launch? You should worry when they release actual new games exclusive for the console and they don't sell well. Then, you can actually start worrying. I really hate this chicken little industry that makes mountains out of molehills and missing the forest for the trees.
>>713125257The dumbest part of it is that we already know Guardians of Azuma has been selling well. If a Rune Factory game can be successful, then you'd have to imagine any decent game can.
>>713124538 (OP)Considering the only first party switch 2 game is Mario Kart, third party sales totalling a third of one game is appalling
According to this guy AC Shadows sold gangbusters lmao
>>713129219The guy claiming that Switch2 3rd party games weren't selling is even less reliable though, pick your poison.
>>713124538 (OP)Watch everyone ignore this thread and make ten other "third parties aren't selling" ones
>>713124538 (OP)Do we even know who was the third party that said their games flopped? I bet it was Sega.
>>713130169It is possibly IO Interactive with Hitman, I've not seen a single person with the key card and not seen it on any eshop chart. Nintendo gave them a big section in the Direct with Hitman and 007 so they were expecting Goldeneye Nintendo fans to show up possibly.
>>713130398Expecting a fanbase from almost 30 years ago play their games is insanity to me.
