>>714156275There's no way they can fuck up Zelda. Even skyward sword was alright.
One game is more then what Sony and Microsoft have. Lmao
I just hope everyone has a switch 2 so by the time we get the next Zelda they will release an oled version.
>>714156451Zelda will absolutely be 100 dollars. You people just let them know exactly what they can get away with.
>>714156109 (OP)>hardwareSo including peripherals?
>>714156523Yup, once GTA 6 sells like hotcakes at $100 Nintendo will follow R& and make Zelda cost more.
But only they'll catch flak for it course.
>>714156109 (OP)ummm... it's shipped THOUGHBEIT? you're losing i'm winning sweetie. i have all the facts, you have none
>>714156451but nintendo switch 2 has no zelda
it doesn't even have a zelda announced
>>714156109 (OP)EMERGENCY MEETING SNOYXISTERS!
Switch 2 is not failing like we tought, what is the new narrative?
>nintendo took it down
We spoiled their big announcement
>>714156205they already have.
>lmao 3.5 mil in 4 days but only 1.5 million in 3 weeks? FLOPI'm convinced at this point it's all a game to pretend to be as retarded as possible for (You)'s
>>714156728GTA is being touted at $120 +
>>714157184>Switch 2 is not failing like we tought, what is the new narrative?it is only 1.5M sales after a month of release, pathetic
>>714156109 (OP)already outsold steam deck sales...
>>714157386Please tell me you aren't serious...
first month sales
>Switch 1 2.7mil
>Switch 2 5mil
>PS5 3.4mil
>PS4 2.1mil
Just to put everything in perspective
>only 5 million
Man the news about the bad screen really killed the momentum
>>714156109 (OP)Actually click the link in this post before replying to this thread
>>714156109 (OP)>hype slowing down alreadyBig oof.
>>714156109 (OP)sorry geha bro but it looks like it was bait
what the page supposedly said before it was reverted fyi
if there are no stock issues Q4 nintendo is going to the moon
>>714157278Both /a/ and /v/ absolutely refuse to understand how stores and stock work
>>714156109 (OP)>Hardware sales>falling off w cliff after the initial boost So it's actually Nintendo that includes accessories sales with the console LMAO, another gigantic L for that stupid mf Olรญmpio!
>>714158454can't speak for /a/, but I think it's less about understanding how stock works and more just saying stupid shit to get replies. I refuse to believe that outside of a couple mentally ill losers that anyone really cares enough to look you in the face and say "no the fastest selling console of all time is a flop" because that'd just be retarded. Consolewarring is already omega retarded and gay but to be extra retarded on top of that? I think it's all for attention
>>714156275How's that Switch 2 emulator coming along anon?
>>714156728gta 6 is gonna be $200 for the "play it 2 weeks early" base edition. that will be the end of multiple companies, because they'll think their shit game can do that too.
>>714156109 (OP)>sold 3.5 mill in 4 days>only sold an additional 1.5 mill in 26 daysNice bullshit snoy.
>>714158552nowadays i don't bother replying at all and just report it all (it generally does nothing because jannies don't care and other people usually don't bother reporting).
>>714156109 (OP)You know the bar includes the switch 1 (yellow) plus controllers and shit?
Holy flopperoo, this shit almost cratered after the first 3 days.
>>714156451>There's no way they can fuck up Zelda.>release BotW>ruin series trajectory for the rest of timeBut I mean hey, they made Echoes of Wisdom, that was a very fun and unique take on the traditional Zelda formula and manner of storytell-
>flops hard in salesWell fuck me then, Zeldassassin's Creed forever it is, then.
>>714158552It's just derangement, they put it up as a ME vs IT in their head so if it doesn't fail, they do.
They'll spin every metric and reshuffle every number every way in order to try and make it look bad
>>714158796>release BotW>ruin series trajectory for the rest of timeBeen playing Zelda since the 1980s. BotW is the Zelda game true fans always dreamed of.
>>714156275Is this the new cope?

>>714158979It already did that in four DAYS.
>>714159028Tendies could stop talking about it but then Snoys will start mocking them. No winning move with console worshippers.

>>7141590521) Cope.
2) Mega cope.
>>714156451>There's no way they can fuck up Zelda.They already did by not making any more Zelda games and instead only making ubisoft open world slop with the Zelda name slapped on it. And musou shit.
For all intents and purposes of old fans, Zelda is had it's finale with SS.
>>714159136NTA but
>Doesn't actually have an argumentMany such cases
>>714159028>Being the fastest selling console in humanitys history by a big margin is now bad newsNigger what?
>>714159169>Classic Zeldasnoys
>>7141583155 milly on the dot? Sure thing Nintendo we "believe" you!
>>714159132Uh...... both BotW and TotK sold more than 55 million. They're currently selling millions more on Switch 2
>>714157438this is bullshit stop the lies
>>714157530in the long run didnt the PS5 fail? so technically the higher the launch the bigger the fall off, it's over for nintendo
>>714156109 (OP)>>714158196>>714158315Why would they mistakenly update that page now? The next shareholder meeting is on August 1st, even assuming they already compiled all the data up to the end of June, it's possible they won't reupload the data (if it's true they did and took it down) for a full month.
>>714156109 (OP)That's just a non-public forecast that somehow got mixed up with the actual data (the actual numbers will be higher).
It's also old "news". It's been on the site since 24th of June
>>714156109 (OP)That's a massive downturn from the first week.
For example, the PS5 averaged over 1.5 million units per month during its first six months.
The Switch barely hitting 1 million in three weeks is embarrassing after initial sales, looks like the hype is truly dead.
>>714158863I'm replaying it and I have to say it's incredible on switch 2
>>714158948looks like they edited it out
>>714159315>millions more on Switch 2millions more? there's only about 4 million Switch 2's sold especially after all the people returning them for screen issues
>>714157530>only 32% more than PS5 after a month when their 3 days launch was 3.5M vs 300k (more than 10x higher)>Nintendo includes accessories with their consoles salesAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE OLรMPIO!!!!!
>>714156109 (OP)nintendo removed the june figures from their site, this is now gone
>>714159315Will TotK be nominated for GOTY this year? It got DLC so it should be eligible like Shadow of the Erdtree
>>714159618>32% more than PS5 after a monthSo Nintendo won?
>>714159218They also have the fastest drops, FOMO and the impeding tariffs worked wonders...for 3 days.
>>714158552I get thinking its attention seeking behaviour, thats on the rise in society as a whole... but its more of a female thing
This may be legit derangement, which is also on the rise especially in men.
This whole personal attachment parasocial thing "either I win and they lose, or they win and I lose" thinking leading to extremist ideals... over nothing issues.
>>714159721They won the frontloaded and straight to the abyss award kek.
>1 million copies sold in three weeks
>333k units sold per week after the initial launch surge
>this matches Famitsu numbers
>this means very optimistically they would reach 11 million by the end of the year
>way below the lowest end estimates of analysts
So what are the chances it will outsell the wii u by the end of the year?
Someone post that tendie meme with the black bar so we can laugh at their stupidity and Nintendon't impending doom!
>>714159985and in 8 years ~90 mill.
yeah, i think nintendo won.
>>714159991Tariffs will hit before the year ends so slim to none.
>>714158894let me check
>it will flop it wont sell no one will want a retread>its preorders are good but thats scalpers>okay its not scalpers its verified nintendo accounts but its still going to flop>okay it didnt flop but it wont outsell the switch 1s launch>okay it didnt flop and beat switch 1s launch, but it wont outsell the PS4s launch>okay it did 3x better than the PS4 but it wont maintain >okay it still sold over 1 million (same as PS4s initial launch total kek) the next week but it has no games>okay its getting games month on month, but they arent goodWE ARE HERE
>okay they topped the charts but nintenbonus>okay they got GOTY but paid advertisments>okay but sony winning one doesnt count the same>okay but it didnt get exclusives outside of nintendo games>ACK okay but duskbloods is the only one and its shit>okay its actually good but thats the only exclusive>okay stop bullying me now!
>>714159991It would be lucky to beat the Wii U first year sales if the sales numbers keep dropping.
Nintendo's target was to sell 12 million in the financial year.
>Sells 5 million in the first 3 weeks.
They'll be firing these things out of t-shirt cannons at Christmas.
>>714160095Havenโt the tariffs already hit
Why are nintencultists like that? It has nothing to play on.
HOLY FUARK. NINTEDOMINATION

>Nintendo includes controllers, cameras and literal cardboard in console sales
>>714160126The wii u sold 5.86 million in its first year, itโs made 5/6th of what the wii u made in the first year within the first month and it hasnโt even had a holiday season yet
>>714160132Is that an insult or a compliment
>>714160340Nintendo typically make around 85% of their annual sales at Christmas. Something to think about.
>>714159315anons.
ive played all of BotW
Ive played TotK up to: did air temple, making way to goron temple, explored 70% of the underground, about 50% of the overworld, got the master sword, got the blueprint thing, got most battery upgrades
got bored and never finished the death mountain area, or started the zora, gerudo, or southern jungle areas.
if I were to play only one game on Switch 2, is it BotW, a game ive seen already, or TotK, a game whose world ive seen already in BotW but still has content ive not seen.
Which game is better? i found totk too free form to be gripping, but the shrines were way more fun than botw's
or do I wait for the mod on PC?
>>714160132>how do I spin these terrible numbers? I know I'll pretend that this is good news! Kek, tendies are a cult of retarded predators!
>>714160206Zelda 1 had actual fucking dungeons, so no
>>714158573but gta 6 is a shit game
>>714160409Flipsides of the same coin.
You could argue that BotW is the more "pure" experience. TotK is like BotW on steroids, and has a lot more content.
Can't go wrong with either but I prefer TotK for the extra content and expanded world.
>>714160178wrong, several people said literally every single line above WE ARE HERE in that post
trying to lie and astroturf wont save you now.
>>714160464So did BotW and TotK
>>714160464>Zelda 1 had actual fucking dungeonsAnd BotW doesn't???
>>714160568>posts a schitzo prediction for Switch from 8 years agoI guess it was real in your mind.
>>714159132Like it or not botw and totk are the best selling Zelda games. I'm just hoping that they remove all crafting and building mechanics because it really ruined totk for me. Still love botw though.
>>714160178>posts shit no one ever said
>>714160591>>714160624t. Tendiejeets who haven't even played the games being shilled.
>>714159664Totk does not have any dlc
>>714160591>>714160624The beasts and the shitty puzzle rooms are not dungeons, no matter how you pretend.
>>714160464never said botw was perfect, but its clear they considered the Divine beasts the dungeons, and, that they considered all the shrines dungeons split into 120 segments
The DBs work just like dungeons in zelda, only they were "too easy"
No one ever said they were no dungeons, just that the dungeons were designed to all be accessible as your first.
the "dungeon items" were replaced with in-dungeon gimmicks to facilitate not needing item progression, but they work the same as ever. Instead of le lightning rod, now you have metal blocks and electricity puzzles in the dungeon itself
As for the dungeon item as a reward, that was changed to the abilities. No one can argue the high jump from the air beast wasnt a game changing ability for example.
>>714160693Now match those four posts to the greentext you made.
>>714160327>no source>no proof>no evidenceman sony really arent sending their best.
>>714160771>The beasts and the shitty puzzle rooms are not dungeons, no matter how you pretend.Yes they are, no matter how much you pretend
>>714160327They aren't like sony count pa portal sales as console sales
>>714158573I honestly don't even feel like buying PS5 after they increased the price, like it was already a bad buy to get it just for one game. I feel Sony are just pissing everyone off with their prices
is this why that fag is shitting up DK threads
>>714160556Im thinking of doing TotK and just limiting myself
no hover bikes
no exploitative builds
no glider, maybe?
could be fun, my issue with the game is purely that its open-ness and lack of limitations ruins the game for me, where those shrines with limited gear are absolute fucking kino
same with BotW, that one island in the south was the peak of the game for me, and on replay I refused to upgrade armor as to not get easy heat/cold/element resistance, forcing me to use the cooking mechanic, refused to not eat in combat etc and it was 20x more fun.
anyway, when is the mod coming out?
>>714160771Divine beast are dungeons whether you like them or not and totk actually does have dungeons despite how small and easy some are.
>>714160075>switch 2 (8nm de samsung) will be around for 8 yearsI feel sad for nintendo frens.

>>714160641Pattern recognition, I posted that deliberately to get you to do exactly what I knew you would do
You see after the switch 1 sold so well, anons that were saying pic related pretended they never said it, no one ever said it, and no one even knew what you were referring to.
I know thats what youre doing now, pretending the lead up to the Sw2 wasnt full of daily doomer posting. Now trying to lie and astroturf this notion it never happened.
And you fell for the bait, hook, line and sinker. Despite it being obvious. You fucking retard.
>>714160854Ofc not, Nintendo includes everything even fictional sales. They sold precisely 5 million of everything associated with the switch 2, how curious.
>>714161126I dont consider lies facts, anon.
Post proof. Not some false narrative. Post objective proof nintendo counts controller sales as switch sales.
You cant, because they dont, and this is snoycope.

>>714163096good news anon, this information was taken down so there's a chance it's not real (but iirc the rumor was that the switch 2 shipped with 5 million units so this means it finally sold out if the initial stock if true)
>>714163951The ps5 as a system is a blunder. They moved the metric to just money so they can add ps4 psn+ subs as part of the "current gen"
>>714156109 (OP)>1 million switch's for the whole quarterThat sucks, I was really looking forwards to it beating the PS2.
>>714164207Itโs impossible since Sony found another 6 million PS2s sold to Atlantis

>>714160409I gave up on Tears at the start of the desert temple on Switch and now I'm just about to start the last temple for my playthrough and that's the wind temple on Switch 2, the performance difference has been such a game changer that this game is just way better than Breath of the Wild, which it absolutely is. I legitimately hope that Nintendo just make a third one of these games and double/triple/quadruple down on improving the same world.
>>714164391Yes but at that point we can all point at Sony and laugh because we know.
>>714163774pls understand, on top of Nintendo winning another generation he's also getting a thread about him on the 'iwi 'arms so he's extra stressed.

>>714159052>2) it's sold out most placesonly in japan, where people have to participate in weekly lotteries just to get the right to buy them.

>>714167141Eric, nobody is fooled by your phone
>>714156205Knowing they don't have to try at all and can get away with anything, Nintendo will continue to rape you in ever orifice as you consume pure slop.
>>714167089Good result in just a month
>>714167215Meanwhile in reality
>>714156109 (OP)Now hold on, weren't you Tendies JUST going for the last two weeks "well obviously we won't get any more sales figures till August....and besides X"
>>714167318You sound mentally ill
>>714167318We won't. It's an error, not actual numbers.
>>714167361Just 2 days ago
>>714156109 (OP)Only another mil after the first week?
>>714167470>rarelyOh so it does happen?
>>714167470>posts screenshot of you being mentally ill and repeating nonsense>one person says "they don't do that often">You think this is a gotchathe 2nd poster in that pic is right, this is not hardly the "gotcha" you think it is
>>714156451They fucked up making BotW a physics fuck-around game and it suffered for it, then TotK and Echoes of Wisdom both stayed in that dogshit trajectory.
>what you don't like a physics sandbox game?There are better ones out there and we'll never have another proper zelda game because of it.
>>714167470So you are mentally ill, got it
>I got BTFO, but you said I wouldn't until August!
Such a weird cope
>>714156109 (OP)Uhhh I'm clicking on the site and I don't see any mention of 5 million units nor can I find that chart anywhere
>>714167604You lost, eric
Why was the report pulled? Also
>Not even 2 million in any country
Fucking kek
>>714167874You sound mentally ill.
Why are you so upset?
>>714167932The hell is that cope, Eric?
>>714167932Is this the new cope?
>>714164391Thats ps2 with the final number
>>714160429>5 million in 3 weeks>terrible
>Tendies are trying to inflate the numbers So people don't realize what a flop it is
Fucking KEK
>>714165259>vtuber poster>not saying something retardedBoth /pol/ and ecelebs should be fucking banned from this site.
Reminder that a Sony vp got hit in a sting op
>>714161332>more projection>>714162373this faggot doesn't even have a deck, don't bother.
sonyfags use the deck exclusively to try to shit on the switch.
>>714168134Eric, that cope flopped
5 million consoles
0 games to play
>sells 3.5 mill in four days due to manchildren
>Tendies "BROS THIS IS THE BEST FUCKING CONSOLE OF ALL TIME OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSSSSSSHHHHHH YESSSS! NINTENDO NEEDED THIS WIN SO BAD!"
>can only sell 1.5 mill in 3 weeks
>Tendies "Well obviously it's because the switch 2 is sold out of stock everywhere otherwise it would be higher"
Kek
>>714156109 (OP)I'm not seeing this on the website. Did Nintendo take it down, or what?
Either way, we'll get the true numbers August 1st.
>>714168457Fastest sales of all times, Eric ;)
>he's posting on cooldown
thanks for bumping the good news!
>>714168547Nintendo took it down for some reason and nobody can answer why
>>714168670Might have been slated to be revealed in the next big report, but they accidentally left it in.
happens all the time
>>714168736But if the next big report is in August and they reveal it sold 5 million now, wouldn't that mean they're lying about it and trying to inflate the numbers? Surely more units will be sold in the next month before then
>>714156109 (OP)>DADDY SOLD A BUNCH
>>714168851Wrong, Eric.
learn to fucking read
>>714156109 (OP)And 4 million of those were scalpers
>>714157438>already outsold steam deck sales...Say it aint so
>>714168851>But if the next big report is in August and they reveal it sold 5 million now, wouldn't that mean they're lying about it and trying to inflate the numbers? Surely more units will be sold in the next month before thenNintendo's August report only covers data up to the 30th of June Anon.
>>714168457>0.5 MI are badCope
>SKG collecting signatures like no tomorrow
>Switch 2 selling like hotcakes
The golden age of gaming is upon us.
>>714157438Anybody who posts this doesnt' understand it was never meant to compete with Nintendo. Steam Deck was an experiement and clearly it succeeded as Asus and Microsoft are both copying Valve not Nintendo
>>714169427>Anybody who posts this doesnt' understand it was never meant to compete with NintendoYeah we know, the narrative was that steam deck was le good and a much better purchase than a switch, when it actually was a completely different product meant for a different market, so people poke fun.
>5 million people are retarded and love $80 games and permanent console bans for usernames
Anon good news:
DKB is confirmed being developed by epd8. Weโre so back
>>714169518>Brazilian posting
Just because Switch 2 is outselling Switch doesn't mean it's doing well
>>714156109 (OP)Honestly this just makes me wonder how exactly they fucked up the Wii U SO badly. It was a catastrophe, how did it go wrong when a launch should be like this coming right off a major hit?
>>714169518>Implying they didnt get the bundle and got MKW for 50 bucks instead.This is gonna be a difficult decade for you again uh niggy?
>>714169518The only game thatโs $80 is Mario kart
>>714169637The Wii was a console that didn't convert casuals to hardcore users. The switch did. Easy as that.
Just because Switch 2 is outselling every single console on the planet doesn't mean it's doing well
Why would anyone willingly decide to continue seething for 8+ years again instead of just joining the fun of enjoying playing videogames by buying a Switch 2.
>>714169580But does that mean 3d mario isnโt coming for a long time
>>714169580shit really? That's great
An extra 5 million PS2 units were found stuck in Shuhei Yoshidaโs couch cushions btw
>>714169580>>714169858I remember saying it was a junior team inside EDP8 handling DKB, glad to see it was confirmed.
Poor erics mouth is gonna make white women jealous at this point.
>>714169858Yes itโs real
https://youtu.be/KhG69dpbErs?si=TaO4vE5vmJLJ5Zjq
>>714169852Well thatโs another questionโฆ
>>714158796>>ruin series trajectory for the rest of timeBotW was a direct response to all of the criticism towards Skyward Sword. They took all of the shit everyone threw at them for making a by-the-numbers Zelda adventure by completely rewriting the formula while injecting the series's focus on adventuring into the mix.
They stumbled (weakest dungeon in the series, fixed partially in TotK), but they completely reinvented Zelda by making the best open world game in years.
Detractors will try and push BotW's flaws like it ruined the series, but the truth is that just like OoT and its flaws, on the whole the game is just so ambitious that it completely overshadows the issues.
>>714170049There still isn't a game with the same amount of environmental freedom and freedom of gameplay as the switch Zelda duology.
>>714169952No wonder he is praying for the momentum to stop as fast as possible lmao
>>714169952I assume based on the date that he means the switch 2, but since he said just switch, he needs to suck 130 million dog cocks.
>>714169837Genuine mental illness.
>>714170320Its the invited preview
>>714169961
>>714169580isnt that bad? that means epd8 doesn't have a game ready to come out soon. It would have been better news if bananza was some other team copying their style
>>714164767rock solid 60 FPS is such a gamechanger, especially on handheld. You get a much better feel for just how ambitious these games are now that they're on good mobile hardware.
Back when it was struggling, you could maybe see the vast open fields of grass as just "nothing to do, since they can't render it due to limitations." It's clear now that the game runs at a much higher target that the open fields are a choice. They provide much needed contrast going between various little alcoves and secrets on the world map.
BotW and Death Stranding are two games that use the expanse of empty, peaceful nature to make *just walking* an engaging activity. People who complain about the lack of stuff in the overworld are legitimately toddlers who drive the worst of ubishit POI design in open world vidya
>>714170116Death Stranding is the only game that competes with BotW's satisfying environment traversal. Aside from these two titans, there's legitimately nothing else in the industry that imparts a comparable sense of comfort and self-directed exploration.
>>714170724>Death Stranding is the only game that competes with BotW's satisfying environment traversalI love death stranding to death but there I'd say the game presents the world differently. Zelda has it be a sandbox, Death Stranding treats it as a puzzle to solve.
>>714156451>There's no way they can fuck up Zelda. Even skyward sword was alright.Breath of the Wild is shit, and it reminded me of how many Ubislop games there were in the PS4 cycle. Nintendo is slowly starting to create artificial scarcity with their Online Account "Silver Coins" program which allows users to buy PNG images for profile icon customizations. You unlock them by playing random games and making Gacha-style achievements by playing Nintendo Online related shit. Now users are complaining it's harder to grind the coins, plus Nintendo faded out the "Gold Coins" system on the eShop.
If I'm right, Nintendo will soon reintroduce Gold Coins as a system-based Microtransaction service, and if I'm also right, the next Zelda will be Nintendo attempting a "Destiny". You get minimal viable shit for nothing at launch at 80 bucks, a "BotW-lite" with other players in it. And then over time the Gold Coins system will be exploited with Zelda and later Animal Crossing, so users will be addicted to buying Nintendo continual revenue, while getting less in return as gamers.
Maybe this has been in the planning for decades.
>>714159132>a formula so good people hated it a whole one game later>peoplederanged snoyggers and cubies.
>>714170885Zelda plays way more with verticality, obviously, since so much traversal is based around the glider. Death Stranding is more like a hiking simulator where you're trying to scale mountains with 500 packages of dead weight in the rain.
I'd say they hit entirely different strides (especially since BotW offers way more in the way of an interactive inventory), but they're both prominent in the genre of "letting players breathe out in open 'empty' space."
I'm so tired of mainstream gamers complaining about how the open expanses are flaws or mistakes. It reeks of decreasing attention span and a desire to reduce all games to flashing light simulators.
>>714170998>If my pathetic schizophrenic babble comes true, Nintendo is done for
>>714160464>Zelda 1 had actual fucking dungeons, so no>what are shrines?>what are divine beasts?
>>714170492anon, they can handle multiple games
>>714170998those are some pretty large fucking if's my guy
>>714161332Whos olimipio?
>>714171350>towns aren't part of the maplmao
>>714171350>Extremely simplistic "alchemy" system that just means you hit enemies with two different colored attacks to do more damage>Unappealing story>Gacha>World is extremely uninspired>The way you gain "freedom" in the gameplay is through microtransactionsI don't think they're comparable.
>>714171347only to a certain extent. the more games their name is tied to, the fewer games you can expect from them otherwise.
>>714171350Genshin is the opposite of open and self-directed. There's busywork every 15 meters for the dreaded 5 primogems so you can pull your favorite twink 2 patches later. Every patch cycle has minigames to get your 30 pulls and fuck off.
It's the opposite of good open world design.
>>714171473the nu-zelda combat system is extremely basic and shallow too, to be fair. It's one of the things I was really hoping and expecting they would put a lot of work into for totk. But they didn't, for some reason, it was the same, flawed, shallow system. That game was so disappointing
>>714171350Genshin just copied the "climb anywhere" feature. It has zero of BotW's environmental interactivity
>>714171076Kirby is a full game + dlc and tears of the Kingdom is 70+10 for the switch 2 version.
>>714171558>BUT THE COMBAT IS LE BAD IN TEARSYou've never even used attachables and it shows
>>714171261Eric, that snoytranny cope flopped
So they sold 3.5 million in 4 days, and then 1.5 million in another 26 days, averaging 57,000 Switches 2 per day after the first 4 days.
What this proves is that by delaying the release of Switch 2 by about 2 or 3 years, Nintendo accumulated a huge number of people willing to upgrade immediately. But after these people upgraded, sales dropped to a normal number.
Here is my free market analysis. Thank you.
>>714171667cmon attachables barely did anything. The movesets were all the same. Did you even play the game?
>>714166290the cult of 150 million people even though it has none of the characteristics of a cult because it's literally the only platform with exclusives, therefore an actual logical reason to buy it
>>714164767That's what people playing on emulators have been saying for at least 4 years, with an army of shills trying to destroy this vision because it goes against corporate interests.
>>714171605And BotW is the Wii-U port with no DLC, your excuse for that one?
>>714171708Still sold more than the Steam Deck's entire lifetime sale.
>>714169637The marketing for the Wii U was complete ass. Most people didnโt even know it was a new console.
>>714171558>the nu-zelda combat system is extremely basic and shallowThere's legitimately more to do with Zelda's kitchen sink of mechanics than any old Zelda game. You can weave together explosives, arrows, and melee using the perfect dodging and even perfect parries.
Exactly what were these beloved deep old Zelda mechanics? The heroic moves in Twilight Princess (aka QTEs and holding down attack at the right time)? Ocarina of Time's broken shield stab which copied the damage of your last attack? LttP's "boomerang'n'slash" spam?
What are these deep Zelda combat mechanics of old you're referring to?
>>714171893Transhin is the worst game ever made, exclusively liked by trannies
>>714171558>extremely basic and shallow too, to be fair.I think there were tons of really cool ideas that basically never got explored. There was a ton of depth but it was never practical or really useful.
>freeze someone and push them with a korok leaf>throw a boomerang in a thunder storm at the right time to basically throw a lightning bolt at someone>throw a metal item near a group of enemies, shoot it with an electric arrow to do AOE damage>bomb arrows immediately exploding when you pull it out in a hot areashit like that is so fucking cool and interesting in the engine and yet none of it is required, and none of it is as useful as spin2win with a big weapon or spamming flurry rush.
>>714171893It should be clear I played Genshin until Inazuma until I realized that it neither harbored any of the Zelda virtues I love nor anything of its own worth staying for.
HSR and ZZZ are better and ironically waste way less of your time.
>>714156109 (OP)Despite all the shitposting, I'm just happy that Nintendo is number 1 for so long, and that's not likely to change any time soon.
This is a golden age, they just can't stop releasing good games.
>>714171893Is that a bad or a good thing?
>>714171847>wii u portthey were developed in parallel. But you already knew that
>>714171667>bro did you even super glue a bokoblin horn to the master sword?I sure wish I didn't
>>714156109 (OP)Steamies on suicide watch lmao.
>>714172047Eric, everybody knows your haven't played it
>>714171847BotW generally regarded as the greatest game ever made and the Deluxe Edition is exclusive to Switch 2.
This ain't Paralysation 5 where games go on sales for $10 after a month. BotW is a luxury item.
>>714171860>>714171784I don't understand why my impartial analysis caused you fags so much butthurt. They're not even negative. 57,000 Switch 2s per day worldwide, even with only one big exclusive game, and even after the mega fans have already bought theirs, is not a bad number, quite the contrary.
Could it be that you are fanatics, and Nintendo is your religion?
>>714171076>$70 games and switch upgrades that cost $10What is this supposed to prove?
>>714156109 (OP)>already outsold the steam deckdamn
>Genshin on top
Tendies lost.
Pokeshit lost.
Zeldafags lost.
Abib lost.
>>714171558>the nu-zelda combat system is extremely basic and shallow too, to be fair.This shows low IQ and brain dead you are. The depth to BotW/TotK combat is endless and every single combat encounter becomes a unique set piece.
It's kinda crazy that these games are still raping your mind.
>>714172248Eric that snoytranny cope flopped
>>714172248Now take off the modifiers and Pokรฉmon pocket wins
>>714172248>number of copies of Genshin sold:>ZERO
>>714171902I didn't say old zelda had deep mechanics. The ones I played certainly didn't
>>714158796>ruin series trajectoryYou mean the trajectory that had Skyward Sword sell less than half as much as its predecessor? Good thing you're not in charge of shit.
>>714172248imagine falling as low as to cheer and root for gacha... and chinese gacha at that no less...
>>714171558Zelda BOTW and TOTK are basic and shallow in all their mechanics because they are sandboxes for ultra-casual players. The 50 million copies that these two games have sold combined make that pretty clear. You're not going to get any depth of combat in a game that requires less skill than Mario Odyssey.
Jesus christ when did /v/ become so dicksucky for nintendo
This is nintendo were talking about, the same company that released like 3 updates for mario maker 2 and then let the game basically die
>>714172543Eric, seething about Zelda just proves it's your lost and raped ass
>>714172304doing gimmicky garbage with the sandbox isn't really combat. It's cool that the game has some fun physics simulation gameplay in it but as a response to the combat being shallow that's a nonsequitur
how tf does this thread get gachafags mixed in??
>>714172620At least itโs not the company that raised the console price and online three times
>>714156109 (OP)lets be honest, it's the only viable choice, ps5 and xbone are shit, so the best option is PC + a switch which can go portable if you want to play on the go or in bed.
I used my ds5 more for PC games than ps5 games. also, the switch 2 pro pad is way more comfy.
>>714172040Ah yes anon they made the SWITCH VERSION OF THE GAME in 2013 when the game was in development
Four years before the fucking switch came out and years before dev kits were available
im glad they produced the shit out of it cause I walked into a gamestop without preordering and got a bundle. FUCK scalpers.
>>714172543>Zelda BOTW and TOTK are basic and shallow in all their mechanics because they are sandboxes for ultra-casual playersShe's still seething.
>Nintendo has sold a third of its fiscal year forecast in the first month
So they're going to absolutely blow the fuck out of that number
>>714172432Okay, and BotW and TotK have legitimately deep systemic interactions. You not only have the skill based stuff (dodging, parrying), but you have the "chemistry" system that lets you mix interactions with lightning, fire, water, etc., with various enemies and environmental hazards. You have bomb shield movement tech that despite mainstream knowledge, Nintendo hasn't patched out of either game. You have thunderclap rushes (TCRs) and other tricks with the bombs, etc..
How is this "shallow?" How is this "extremely basic?" Because the game doesn't hold your hand and tell you "hey, you don't actually need a SUPER DURABLE +15 SWORD" to resolve harder combat encounters? Because you can viably just find great equipment before tackling hard stuff instead of doing the mechanically deep play?
>>714172834yeah, especially since scalpers don't actually produce anything of value. Skimming as middlemen is pretty lame, they're basically parasites on the whole system
>>714171350>Are you forgetting someone
>>714172895look if you think what you described is deep then good for you, but I do think that's pretty embarrassing
>>714171893I've played it for like two thousand hours and they're pretty much spot on. Genshin has very little actual interactivity in the vein of Zelda, it just has a lot of puzzles, all of which were dumbed down the last few years because retards cried about the ones in Inazuma.
>>714172683Gachafags don't care about Nintendo, but snoys use gacha as a bludgeon (more like squeaky hammer) to "own" le tendies because it makes money and isn't on switch.
>>714172785What year did botw come out
>>714172714Yeah its just the company that opened the floodgates for 80 dollar games which is going to.be the standard from here on out.
>>714172668Wrong smoothe brain. BotW/TotK's combat is so deep I can decimate an entire enemy camp without even drawing my sword. And it's more fun than any game you can mention. Continue seething
>>714172901all these leeches do is buy stock and fuck over people who want systems/graphics cards/cpus/whatever. but nintendo made a shitload, so scalpers got fucked.
>>714172543See
>>714172895Accommodating the super casual players while intentionally leaving high-level skill expression mechanics in your games is what Nintendo has been doing for almost their entire tenure as a publisher. You're never going to convince them to make the hardcore mechanics the face of marketing, but aside from Smash, they've basically never filed those mechanics away, either.
>>714172889The next Pokemon comes out near the holiday season, which will all but guarantee they pass the 10 million mark.
since the dawn of time the best gaming setup is pc + nintendo. all xbone games are on pc. ps5 too.
>playstation only
all their games get PC ports.
>>714173023Not like sony and MS opening the floodgates to $70 games to get the ball rolling, of course, its always Nintendoโs fault
>>714172992You're free to list any game with the same amount of free-form environment and mechanic interaction. Fair warning, it has to he in gameplay not in RPG textboxes, and it has to be a game.
>>714173050yes because not using a sword means a game is deep
>>714172992Explain how it isn't deep though. There's deep action combat in games like NG2 and DMC3, deep RPG combat in games like WotR, and then there's deep action-adventure combat in a game like BotW. Please give me some examples of open world adventure games with deep combat.
And no, I don't mean "deep RPG spreadsheet systems that affect the dice rolls when you swing" aka no Morrowind-esque answers.
>>714173149>pc + nintendoswitch emulator has been better than the original and gets games early bro, Nintendo + PC is just PC
If you bought a Switch 2, you are complicit in contributing to the downfall of gaming. I hope you're all happy with yourselves.
>>714173181>being able to meaningfully do combat without drawing my main weapon isn't an indication of deep combatyou're being intentionally obtuse here anon
>>714173346Going to buy one for my cousin just to make you mad :^).
>if you add switch 1 numbers itโs 5 million
Look at the units on the left. See how it increases arbitrarily? Thatโs because this is an optical illusion. They sold 3.5 like they said
>>714173275still, switch is also a mobile device, I cant carry my PC everywhere, the utility is good
>>714173152Youre such a fucking retard dude. 70 dollar games was bad, 80 dollar games is worse. It doesnt matter who starts it, it matters who and where the increased price lands at
Again /v/ being majorly dicksucky over a console company they used to laugh at
>>714173359it would be a nice addition if using your main weapon had any kind pf depth to it, sure
>>714173346If you bought a video game in the last 20 years, you're complicit in contributing to the downfall of gaming. Your dollar, at some point, went towards a predatory cause.
Consumer culpability means next to nothing in this market.
>>714173423*also switch controls + the big classic game collection is nice, you can emulate on a phone but touch controls are shit for 99% of games, only pokemon it doesnt really matter.
Nintendo be like
>people canโt recognize our development studio names so we decided to call them the Mario odyssey team
this is so funny to me
>>714173149I can solely stick to Nintendo nowadays and virtually miss nothing. PC was worth when it was its own thing instead of being a dumping ground of console ports.
And I think the anons having a problem with people playing on a PS5 are retarded too.
>>714173441Depth in what regard? Are you asking for a DMC stinger, an NG Izuna drop, a Bayonetta gun attachment, or what? How would these gel together in a system where you're supposed to use like 5-6 of the items in your inventory together when fighting a difficult enemy?
>>714173441>it would be a nice addition if using your main weapon had any kind pf depth to it, sureYou don't have a main weapon. You have OPTIONS.
Low IQ button mashing plebs got filtered by Nintendo kek
I regret getting a ps5, all it is good for now is playing GTA on release. Switch 2 has already given me more enjoyment than demons souls.
the ONLY console that matters now is the switch.
>>71415620584.25% sales from scalpers
>>714173638"main weapon" wasn't my terminology, it was the person I was responding to
>>714173346dilate you fucking nerd
>>714173346>switch two has games >nintendo makes games instead of progressive dadcore cinematic experiences>lowest online costWhy am I supposed to hate them?
>>714173684But enough about the tranny deck
>>714173403>Look at the units on the left. See how it increases arbitrarily?It's on a linear scale of 1.6million increments dumbass. the Switch sold about ~1million and the Switch 2 sold about ~5million
>>714173598PC for multiplats and online fps/other games like that, switch for first party nintendo games
also the option to play the classic catalogue or new games on a mobile device is nice. I didnt have a steam deck, and I emulated switch 1 big releases, but if the switch lasted 8 years already then it's a good investment. not like switch 3 will be out in 2030.
>>714173428So surely youโll stop pegging nintendo when GtA6 is $100, right??
>>714171558It has a weaker "game-feel" than the Combat in Wind Waker. I feel both Skyward Sword and BotW's combat have an intentionally "wobbly" feeling to them. Where it's made intentionally exaggerated and comical in a sort of "made for toddlers" vibe.
And that's a shame. BotW is the first 3D Zelda game that isn't a total cakewalk. If you meet an untimely Lynel or Guardian you have reasons to avoid them if you have to ride past them.
I just wish the combat had the kind of "oomph" it has in OoT, WW or even TP. Combat felt cool in those games, but there was no balancing and the damage ratio was ridiculous in the player's own favor.
>>714171350>gacha>gamefuck off, gambler
all this means to me is nintendo is going to bring back random ass IPs cause they got some money.
I'm already happy with Rhythm Heaven coming back, now we need a new Sin and Punishment + mouse control, and for the love of god a new F-ZERO
>>714171559What "environmental interactivity" does BotW have? It has Shrines and Korok Seeds, and everything else is just you walking across empty plains and icy hills.
Ooohhh, right right right, you meant that ice melts if you use something with heat, and eating chilled meat in hot areas gives you heat resistance.
Riiight, right right right. I sure liked that "environmental interaction". It was so immersive, and it changed gaming forever /s
>>714173969OOT is still the best zelda (or game, really) but botw/totk are pretty fun cause you have a lot of different options, cause your weapons are usually a variety of stuff and you have runes/abilities, plus you can do things like bomb people off cliffs or use the environment more.
only problem with the newer ones is some enemies can be massive damage sponges (certain color moblins or whatever)
>>714173969>"oomph"Anon, that is a key word for: I was an impressionable child when I played these games and I'm letting my nostalgia googles cloud my objectiveness.

>giving profile pictures for free is bad.
>>714173873Bipe, it's their fault games are rising in price. the initial rise from $60 to $70 was warranted since it has been more than a decade since the last price bump. But Shitendo has to ruin everything by raising the standard price again in less than 5 years

>>714156109 (OP)Kinect sold 8 million units in 2 months, clearly it must be the future of gaming
it's funny playing totk on switch 2 because when I first emulated it the underground was a glitchy mess cause it wouldnt render right, so daily releases would try to fix certain bugs.
now it runs amazing, ofc cause it's native but the updates make it even better than the vanilla release.
is he doing double duty because of DKB preview?
>>714174415How about you stop bootlicking for omce tendie
>>714174435I legimitaley believe he has a roomie/coworker helping him, there's at least two posting styles, one that is more blatantly retarded and can't stop saying "Shitch" (him), and another that is more openly hostile and doesn't know when to stop replying.
Both are retards, don't get me wrong, but Eric is funnier, the other faggot is the one currently raiding this thread.

I imagine this is where Eric and his ilk are posting from trying to spin this shit
>>714173969the gamefeel would probably be okay if you had some more options in combat. Not having many things to do means novelty dries up very quickly
>>714174285>going from 60 to 70 is fine>going from 70 to 80 is not?????
>>714174242the damage spongery probably does contribute a lot to its issues. Doing the same thing over and over to an enemy makes the game feel very artificial
>>714156109 (OP)If this is June, imagine what the holiday season sales will be
>>714174435>DKB previewThere's a new preview now? I was hoping for a demo
>>714156109 (OP)>sales are indicative of qualityI really hope you don't believe this. Video game discussion is such a magnet for retards lmao.
>>714156451>There's no way they can fuck up ZeldaAnon...come on now. Zelda took a ride to shit city years ago, and it doesn't seem like Nintendo has any incentive to purchase a return ticket. People buy it anyway.
>>714156205They are doing money laundering and fraud and scams and defrauding investors and selling weapons to Iran and other incredible dangerous things that under normal circumstances would be discovered pretty quick, but in the space of completely allowed made-up bullshit happen
>>714175243most of the game is fine, but certain color mobs take a ton of hits unless you use strong weapons. it's fine, but you have to decide if you want to risk a good weapon that might break.

it's not similar to the walmart/etc. demo since it has all bananza forms, a bunch of courses, and a boss fight
I have never paid more than 60 dollars for a game and never will. No game is worth that much money.
>>714173607>no responsekek, gotta love vagueposting about depth
>>714169637Horrible marketing, normies trought thats it was a Tablet assessory to The wii
>>714175487I paid bout $40 for a new physical copy of BOTW and $10 for a Switch 2 upgrade. Dunno how it's being touted as $90

>>714175575it was pretty useful for showing what kind of pull nintendo has with the masses of uninformed normies taken out of the equation though. The WiiU was a great way to gauge the size of their core, informed audience
>>7141659355 is bigger than 3
>>714176228>The WiiU was a great way to gauge the size of their core, informed audienceWonder how the WiiU's abandonment and later repurposing affected that audience. I'm confident that many were lost during the WiiU-Switch run, but at the same time, the Switch was big enough that they had to have gained new members of this group.
>>714176682And it's all coming from one (1) individual, two max. It's honestly impressive.
>>71417645266% more to be exactly. so the S2 is going to sell about to sell 23 mio consoles.
>>714176027>DO THAT AND THIS at the same timejesus
Just got a Switch 2 at Best Buy. Thought I wasn't gonna make it because there was an ample line outside before the store opened. Got the last regular base console they had in stock.
The search is finally over, bros...
>>714178659Is it normal for there to be lines after launch day? I donโt pay attention to these things.
>>714174202It was impressive and made for many emergent gameplay you fucking retard. Jesus, what a waste of oxygen you are.
>>714178870no, its not normal at all
>>714178659day one donkey kong bros, we eating good!
>>714156109 (OP)Nintendo always wins!
>>714173010What year did it start development faggot
>>7141802092014 I think? It released simultaneously on switch and WiiU
>>714172040>they were developed in parallellmao no they were not. The Switch port was absolutely a late decision. Do you remember the WIP previews during development? They had an entire Gamepad map system that they cut from the game in the name of maintaining parity with the Switch port.
>>714180616>They had an entire Gamepad map system that they cut from the gamewhat did you mean by this?
>>714166179>What is it about the switch 2 that makes thirdies so mad?It's a combination of them being snoys and feeling entitled to Nintendo games for free because of early Switch emulation.
>>714172040You really shouldn't take that stance unless your goal is to look like a retard. Not only is the issue unimportant, but your entire point gets staggered by the simple observation that Link uses a fucking gamepad in BoTW. Hell, the devs went out of their way to redesign the tablet to resemble a Switch in ToTK to drive the point home that it was a Switch game.
The simple, factual stance is that BoTW was designed for the WiiU and ported later in development for Switch when the WiiU shit the bed. It's a WiiU game, regardless of the platform you (and likely the majority) played it on. Yes, this means the two versions were designed in parallel to some capacity, but that's not really the metric I would use here. The initially targeted platform is more important.
>>714156109 (OP)Incredible what the power of false advertising gets you
>>714180725They had a suite of Gamepad features during development. The map and inventory was supposed to display on the second screen concurrently with gameplay on the main screen, like what they did in WWHD and TPHD. But by the time the game came out, this was all kiboshed, and the second screen was reserved exclusively for off-TV play. I take this as clear evidence that there was no plan for a Switch port at the start of 2015.
>>714181325>The initially targeted platform is more important.no it isnt, because they released simultaneously.
>>714173346All I care about when making gaming purchases is to make you seethe, so yes I am very happy
>>714156523Inflation in the US has doubled price levels from 1995 and median wages have also doubled. A lot of people are still calibrated to like 2004 price levels.
From inflation alone, games should be $100. That's what you used to pay for them.

>>714181451The Wii version of Twilight Princess actually released before the GameCube version, yet Twilight Princess is still a GameCube game. Unless you mean to tell me that they mirrored the world twice (once in initial development and again to create the GameCube version).

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
Now people are gonna act like they weren't saying the SD was gonna affect the Switch 2 sales kek
>>714156109 (OP)pretty sure most of it is scalpers because switch 2 has no games atm.
>>714165935Wii U sold just under 6 million in its first year. Switch 2 is at 5 million and is set to nearly top that in its first MONTH.

>>714183254the lack of self awareness in this post is staggering
>>714169637To add tpnehat the other anons said, I think people really don't know how good we have it now when it comes to games.
The Wii U launched with motherfucking NSMBU and then nothing for like 7 months until Pikmin 3.
And the 3DS wasn't any better, Nintendo struggled really hard with the HD transition.
>>714183587nintendoland was good
>>714156275cope and seethe harder.
>>714183345they changed it back to 4k, so its fine
>>714156523just stop being poor.
>>714183810fair, but if it still says 4k120 then it's not
>>714183570Stop ban evading olimpdick
>>714183432Those numbers are literally hit by Metroid Prime 4 albeit, the fact that you sneakily edited the image to imply Nintendo said 120fps at 4K when they never did is your own fault.

>>714181428>this device supports 120 FPS on the screen and 4K output via a dockthis is not the same thing as saying the device wil achieve 4K 120 FPS in all or even most of its games. the funny part is if they didn't do this, you'd be saying Nintendo is behind the times on basic output standards.
>>714184025Ironic, since you call everyone who criticizes Nintendo eric.
Btw this is the best a console has sold in its first month, like, ever.
Fucking insane that people are trying to spin this as bad news but I guess that's how some deranged some of them are

>>714185395Drag x Drive isn't really worth noting, sadly, I was hoping it'd have more to it, but no, it's just the 3v3 basketball mode and the race track around it
