6 million sold in the first month.
Shortages expected due to demand.
Hope you bought a Switch 2 when you had the chance.
>>714573668 (OP)>outside blogger said a thing to get paid>OP thinks this is worth making a thread on
>>714573668 (OP)Every gwal-mar from Monterey to Chihuahua has full shelves of switch 2. Jajaja no on wants it gringo
It has no games I care about
>>714573668 (OP)Hmm.. I don't know, that number sounds a little high...
>>714573927You spics cant even afford food now that you cant leech off america anymore.
>>714573668 (OP)I'll buy the Switch "Slim" with a shrunken SoC, lower weight, better battery life and an OLED display in a few years for half the price.
Thanks for beta testing, nerds!
>>714573668 (OP)Remind me, what's the price in EU vs US due to all the tariffs.
>>714573668 (OP)>6 millionsure thing kike
>>714574015I literally know no one who bought it
>>714574018Mexico didn't chimp out like Canada so they're exploring reducing the non-trade-agreement goods tariffs rate (only affecting less than half of US-Mexico trade currently anyway).
>>714574220umm it stays in the dock none of those things matter
>onegame 2
I think I'll be ok. Maybe by fall 2026, it'll have 4 games instead of 1.
>>714574271All the consoles were manufactured and shipped before any tariffs.
The only possible reason to get one now is to just get it and just never open it in case hacks are discovered for earlier firmwares. This is what happened with the first Switch.
>>714573668 (OP)>sold nearly half of Wii U's life time sales in just a monthb-but our shitposting spam, Sonysistas... it was all for nothing...
bought it at launch. 6 hours in mkw. thats it.
easily my least used nintendo hardware to date.
>>714574334Same lol and I convinced 2 cowirks to get steam decks instead
The PS4 also broke record sales in it's first few months.
the snoys are coming out of the woodwork with this one.
>>714574490I just bought it so I could play Bayonetta 2 without it running like ass.
Money well spent.
>>714573668 (OP)20 million first year would be unprecedented.
Other consoles struggled to hit that in their peak year
>>714574628That's what snoy trannies will need to do for another 8 years, grim...
Fellow Snoy sisters, check the Discord for our next cope!
>>714574220>better, more expensive parts>half the priceThe most tech literate PCfag
>>714574708>Bayonetta 2Do you mean 3, you retard? 2 already ran perfectly on the Switch 1.
>>714574545And Switch 2 is beating PS4 records, what's your point.
PS4 also sold 118 million. Is that supposed to be a bad result for Switch 2?
6 million? In a month? That can't be possible.
>>714574818Nah 3 sucks and 2 absolutely had framerate dumps to the mid 40's in certain areas. I mean it was better than the Wii U version but still annoying.
>>714573668 (OP)>Nintendo targets 12 million units in the fiscal years.>Sells 6 million in the first month
I spent all day today going from store to store in my city to get one, but they are all sold out. Since /v/ keeps telling me that shelves are full of them and nobody wants one, maybe one of you can point me to a store in Ulm, Germany, that has one in stock right now, ready for me to pick up. Thanks bros
>>714575109It sold 3.5 million in four DAYS, its very possible.
>>714574015with nintendo's limited amount of ovens?
6 million? This is a hate crime
>>714575231You mean New Nintendo 3DS that wasn't half the price of 3DS?
>>714575186I think you Germans have more important things to worry about, like foid politicians flooding your country with ever-increasing amounts of brown skins.
>>714575443anglo cucks and yanks are currently importing millions of jeets to replace white people in high paying jobs in their countries right now
>>714575443Retarded deflection, where's my Switch 2? The store shelves should be overflowing with them, after all they're huge commercial flops, aren't they?
how many lotteries are they up to now in japan for this thing? 5th? 6th? it's fucking nuts
>>714575443What major country other than China isn't flooding itself with shitskins? Even Russia does it
>>714573668 (OP)fomo marketing fuck Nintenjeets
>>714573668 (OP)In ONE MONTH??? Bit unbelievable if you ask me.
>>714574220I just skipped on buying any Switch revision for the last 8 years and got a 2 so I can play Switch 1 games with better performance. I'll grab either the final Switch 2 revision or the Switch 3 and sell the OG in another ~ 8 years.
Being patient paid off.
>>714573668 (OP)No, it has 0 games I'm interested in
Switch sales are 100% constrained by manufacturing capacity, rather than demand. Every single unit manufactured this year will most likely be sold be the end of the year.
>>714573668 (OP)That's a lot of beta testers
>>714573838>nintendo paying shillsCope
>>714574220>half the price.Nothing happening
>>714574015Nintendo what Hitler didn't.
>>714573668 (OP)Nah I bought a Steam Deck OLED instead. I might buy the Switch OLED when it comes out in a few years.
>>714577365Cope
There are warehouses filling up with unsold units as we speak, Nintendo miscalculated when they assumed consumers would go from LCD to OLED and then back to LCD. Couple that with their retarded keycards, they're active sabotage of third party docking stations, they're bricking killswitch that now led to regulatory actions in brazil, they're thermal issues and the Switch 2 is DOA. I wouldn't be surprised if they fire half of the staff responsible for this shit and push out a Switch 2.5, named Switch 2+ or some shit like that, next year with fixed thermals and a new screen. As it stands, Nintendo needs to do something or they're gonna head towards some major financial losses.
>>714573668 (OP)There's no doubt that it's doing well, but
>analyst predictionsLol, le mayo even.
How does /v/ always manage to be wrong about videogames?
>>714578394I know what you mean but when people said it sold 3.5m in 4 days everyone laughed too until multiple outlets and then Nintendo themselves mentioned it.
Putting the grim state of this no games launch aside, only a complete retard buys first revision of a handheld, especially Nintendo's.
>>714578390but enough of your deranged fantasy
only a complete genius buys first revision of a handheld, especially Nintendo's.
>>714578625The Switch 2 absolutely has huge thermal and screen issues. I didn't even mention the abysmal battery life, which is worse than the OG Switch

>>714578919I'm merely calmly stating facts?
The Switch 2 has tons of horrendous issues and isn't selling, I'm sorry you're too much of a Consooomer to realise that.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mL2GivJuCl8
>>714578763And all the things you mention the average consumer is oblivious too.
>>714578978>floss away nowwhat?
>>714574774>That's what snoy trannies will need to do for another 8 years, grim...But they tried everything. Having journalists speaking out against it, influencers lying about not buying it. Digital Foundary calling the screen slow. Hell even Geoff Keighley parroted the $90 games lie. Why won't it stop selling?
>>714579032Minor issues, you mean.
>isn't sellingAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>714578763The Switch 2 battery is between 2-6 hours which is on par with everything else with a battery.
You can buy a $2000 state of the art gaming laptop and the battery will last you 2.5 hours, without even running a game.
Or you can play on your $1000 phone and the battery will be dead in 20 minutes if it doesn't burst into flames first.
The schizo cope and seething hatred of Switch 2 is at Chernobyl levels.
>>714579195>Portable Console with a worse screen than it's own predecessor, worse battery life, huge thermal issues, no games at launch, inbuilt killswitch by a company that will brick your system if you don't use their official docking stations or say mean worse about them online>Minor issuesWhat would be a major issue?

The fact you had to lie only highlights you don't consider the ACTUAL issues to be major.

Also, there's no "medium settings" on an Switch system.
Is this how you cope? Drawing up fake graphs for comfort? XDD
>>714574220I keep forgetting that the Switch has been on the market for over 8 years. These 15-16 year olds are now in their mid 20s. Unreal how time flies.

>>714573668 (OP)they've clearly connected with their core audience but i think growth might be tough. i fully planned on getting a switch 2 after skipping wii u and s1, but the value just isn't there currently...jumping in and building a library would be a small fortune. really wish they'd do what sony did at ps5 launch by offering a core catalogue of 20ish games for free to make up for a lackluster launch lineup.
instead it seems like nintendo wants to nickel and dime their own customer base by making it hard to even share games between multiple consoles etc--something i've literally never had to think about with playstation. if i've bought a game, i can just download it and play it on any of my consoles. very weird.
>>714579956These are clickbait bullshit just for people like you, because it's exactly what you want. And you fell for it. You're their target audience.

>>714578394Predictions are based on patterns. In this case, it's estimated that it sold 6 million in one month, which gives plenty of foresight of trajectories. And everyone knows that the holiday season is where the most significant sales boosts are done throughout the year. So yes, this prediction is very credible.

Why are the tendies so uppity about the screen being fucking dogshit? Once the OLED model gets announced, you'll start shitting on the screen anyway, so why not start shitting on it now?
>>714580501I agree with their assessment, Switch 2 has a very bright future

>it's a lie because I don't want it to be the truth
>>714585773did you hear that from your grandfather who walked backwards out of gamestop with a switch 2
>>714574334>I literally know no one who bought itThere are 340 million people in the US alone and the system has sold 6 million units worldwide with maybe 2 million specifically in the US currently. That's less than 1% of the US population that owns a Switch 2 currently, but it's only been out a month. So if Nintendo's projections are correct and they sell approximately 15 million systems in 1 year. Nintendo will have sold a system to like 1-2% of the US population in a year.
>>714578763>huge thermalno lol, this thing runs pretty cold in the hands

>Tendies are now making up stories about snoy masturbation machines.
>>714586047The NES made it into a third of US houses. The Switch 2 will never manage that
And still no games, so tendies are begging for PS5 games lol.
I know exactly two people who bought it and one regrets it already. But Nintendo has his money so lolgg I guess. They just want a big title to play, and no Mario kart is not a big title. Itโs a side title. Donโt @ me about how many copies of MK8 sold over a full decade.
>>714573668 (OP)I still plan to get a Switch 2 in 2026, when there are more first party games. I don't care about 3rd party games, as I just play them on PC.
If it gets hacked, I'll get a Switch 2 sooner.
>>714586458>In the United States, nearly 30 million NES consoles were sold by December 1991.>The population of the United States in 1990 was 248,709,873somehow 30 million is 1/3 of 248 million?

>>714586458If the Switch 2 is just half as successful as the Switch 1 it will still outsell the NES by 13+ million units.
>>714586724When Nintendo fans say they "want for nothing," that's not what they mean.
>>714586891Why did the SNES sell worse than the NES? SNES had a way better library than the NES.
>>714586891Nintendo killed the GBA too soon
>>714586793How fucking retarded are you? He said HOUSEHOLDS. Populations live in FAMILIES bro.
>>714586724What are these "ps5 games" you're talking about?
>>714586996>Why did the SNES sell worse than the NES? SNES had a way better library than the NES.SNES had competition. NES had a monopoly.
>>714579367>bought a gaming laptop for collegeWhat an idiot.
>>714587021Psp scared them
>>714586996SNES had stronger competition in the Genesis and in Japan, the PC Engine.
>>714573668 (OP)hell no. I might buy one when they release an OLED version
Right now I don't really care
>>714587021We can only speculate, but there's a chance it would've fared poorly against PSP
Damn that's cool, I'm happy for you bro. I think it's a massive pile of shit though so I don't think I'll buy one or care if I can't.
>>714579469Lol you got Jewtendo'd!

>>714573668 (OP)OH FUCK. I'VE NEVER GIVEN A SINGLE SHIT ABOUT NINTENDO BEFORE, BUT NOW I HAVE TO GO BUY A SWITCH 2 BEFORE IT'S GONE FOREVER
>>714574220>half the price.It'll be $650 minimum
I can't find one anywhere, I didn't think it would be this hard and I want to play DK Bananza on launch... what do, bros?
>>714591310Should have done what I did and signed up to pre-order on their site in case I couldn't find one around me.

Check Walmart. It's in stock for me at msrp.
>Outsold the entirety of the PC handheld market in a month
kek
I've been hearing for years how they were totally gonna take over Nintendo's market, whatever happened to that? Or are people gonna pretend they weren't saying that like the idiots that call Smash clones "Smash Killers"?
>>714591310bro, just get an restock app
NOOOOOOOOOOOO STOP BUYING IT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>714592502It's $718 for me bro, I don't want it that bad.
>>714591310Did you not sign up for the Nintendo lottery?
>>714594915that just means it's not in stock near you so they're showing you a third party seller instead
>>714594915Shows $499 for me.
>>714586891Ah yes, the famous home console. The game boy advanced
>>714595904Handhelds are consoles no matter how much you guys push against it
>>714573668 (OP)Scarcity? I see units everywhere
Not gonna deny it sold a fuckton, but there are no shortages
>>714597083That just means they are good with restocking
>>714573668 (OP)Pretty sure these analyst are hacks. Just like OP is a nintendo shill. It didn't sell 6 million.
Switch 2 only sold 3 million because of scalpers. And every single media out there refuse address the elephant in the room. They all refuse to talk about scalpers.
Nintendo is using that 3 million scales figure to boost and promote their console to mask the fact that there's no fucking games at launch. It's not getting much better with only Donkey Kong coming and nothing else announced so far.
You know the hype is shit because Nintendo fanboys only talk about 2 things.
1. 3 million sales, they make these theads so much that it seems they got nothing better to do... ironic for a video game console
2. Recently Mario Kart update is shit
>>714574334I've never met anyone that's heard of Gran Turismo but that's a wildly popular franchise for decades.
>>714573668 (OP)When is the next Nintendo financial thing that they show their numbers?
>>714579032Hopefully you will kill yourself over a tablet
>>714599921august i think
>>714591310gamestop had some instore when got exhaused checkcing the usual places online. for like 2 weeks
Yes, but it was through a stroke of sheer luck.
>>714574220Never going to happen. They will release a handheld only version that is $100 less and an OLED version that is $50 more.
>>714573668 (OP)You can buy mine OP, then shove it up your fucking ass.
You're very welcome.
>>714573668 (OP)You mean those 10 videos I made last week saying Nintendo was evil for fixing the random option in Mario Kart was for nothing?
My social credit score is going to suffer for this!

>>714573668 (OP)>p-please beta test this shitty system from this shitty corporation
>>714573668 (OP)The Best Buy near me just got a bunch in stock, I'd pick one up but I just don't feel like doing all the transferring
>>714603485but enough about playstation and the ps5

>>714602239Genuine mental illness.
>>714573668 (OP)I literally had no chance yet.
>>714574545And it continued to sell extremely well after that. Of coursed it helped that the Wii U and Xbone completely fucked themselves in the ass and the PS4 had a huge library of exclusives*, but still.
>>714573668 (OP)i still can't believe how surprisingly easy it was to just go to gamestop the day before and purchase for pickup at midnight the line was fucking huge but whatever pocket dimension they had in that closet they had enough to the point where people were coming in at midnight and were still able to get theirs
>>714575162They originally targeted 15 million but dropped it down because of the prices they wound up going with. They should probably put it back up to that after this turnout.
>>714591310you should've signed up for the "preorder" queue back when it was up i got mine at gamestop anyways at midnight but they got back to me like a week or 2 after iirc to tell me i could preorder one. I don't know how long down the list they are in their queue system but I'm assuming they're going at a much faster rate than they did when it was first up either way unless you somehow get lucky and you find a store nearby selling it I doubt you're gonna find one in time for dong bananza
>>714593492>Most people (read: normies) couldn't use a umpc without massive amounts of frustration and the only real marketing you see are online news articles--most outside of a few models can't even be bought at retail>8 year old Timmy sees a Switch 2 commercial and asks his parents to get him one next time their grocery shopping at WalmartUmpcs don't give a fuck about Nintendo or it's audience, tendie. It's a niche market.
>all that deck shilling
>all that switch 2 doomposting
and the switch 2 is already getting close to twice as many sales as the steam deck
IN JUST ONE MONTH
>>714579482>spend years saying it won't sell>get BTFO>c-can you guys please stop talking about sales?kek
>>714594915Walmart like amazon allows people besides them selves to sell on their website, the ones listed above MSRP are 3rd parties scalping hoping an oblivious parent searches for it on walmart and buys it.
>>714609859Not your competition. Most deck threads are started by bitter tendies. Valve vs. Nintendo is the most forced console war in history.
>gee a platform with next to know marketing outside of steam users sells less than a company that constantly markets to children and normiesThis board is populated by literal idiots.
>>714610098*next to no
Fucking Christ.
>>714608568will look better for them if they surpass the new estimate.
>was hoping to wait it out and buy it a few months later when I thought the console wouldnโt sell well and itโd be a 3ds ambassador program scenario
Should I just bite the bullet and buy one already
>>714602239Who is paying them?
>>714610098>Most deck threads are started by bitter tendies*snoys
>>714610098from the very second the deck was announced steam fanboys were calling it the switch killer, and since then they've been trying hard to shill it and convince everyone to sell their switch (which sold 152 million units so far) and buy a deck (which sold only 4 million units lmao)
don't pick fights you can't win and then demand peace
>with next to know marketingyou can't even speak english
>>714579482>Do you own stocks you fucking retard?Yes. Why wouldn't you own Nintendo stock? It prints money.
the steam deck is the failure valvegans wish the switch 2 was
the switch 2 is the massive success valvegans wish the deck was
Deckies on literal suicide watch with their embarrassment of a machine
>take bargain bin laptop with integrated graphics
>remove keyboard and attach analog stick instead
>decktroons literally eat this up
>>714575443THEY'RE FLOODING GERMANY WITH AMERICANS ????
>>714610509They have to shill it and compare it to the Switch in order for it to sell at all. The sales are low as is, but they would be even worse if the โswitch killerโ thing never happened.
Steam deck is such an odd anomaly because even as a nintendo fan, I gotta admit that itโs pretty cool yet it still somehow gets consistently ignored by most casuals and due to how obnoxious its shills are, hated by tons of non casuals
>>714573668 (OP)why do you suck off stealth so bad. cuz he sucked you first?
>>714573668 (OP)I'll buy it when they iron out the kinks.
>>714573668 (OP)I don't have anything against it. I just can't feel driven to get one until I have some games I'll really invest time into instead of blowing through and leaving the thing an expensive paper weight for months on end.
I'm one of the few who never regretted my Wii U because it was my introduction to Monster Hunter and it gave me dozens of hours of entertainment alone. As for Switch 2? I dunno. I know Mario Kart won't hold me for long. If Donkey Kong is made by the Odyssey devs it will probably be pretty easy to plow through even if it is pretty big.
>>714611125It runs Linux anon
Memes aside it's okay for geeks like us but normies will never use it
400 million. Check it, report it, sound the alarm, get the town crier, finally some good news
Dogshit ass games though
>>714610384Sure, if you can afford it then why not.
Even if you end up not liking it, youโll have no problem trading/selling it.
>>714611125People who compare the Steam deck and the switch have to be autistic, I don't understand how people can be this fucking retarded. There's a reason why the switch sells like hotcakes, and it certainly isn't graphical fidelity
>>714586047They really didn't produce a lot of them, they sold out everywhere here long before I thought to look for one. Had to pay an extra $150 to get one off of eBay.
>>714611125I own both Switch 1 and Steam Deck and Steam Deck is objectively better by every single metric. It just has zero normie appeal.
>>714610509No one is doing that. Go ahead and post the archive of people begging people tp get rid of their Switch for a deck.
You mutants literally see an OP that says
>I love the deck/It's one of the best things I ever bought/What are you guys playing?You see OPs like this and somehow twist them into shitposts against Nintendo. Then you go into these exact threads, shill the Switch or just straight up shitpost the deck, and when the posters respond negatively, suddenly they're fanboys or vegans completely ignoring who started the exchange.
You motherfuckers are legitimately deranged and display high-estrogen qualities
>>714611351they're poorfags getting their first computer and gloating about finally being able to emulate the nintendo games they were never able to afford
>>714573668 (OP)What demand? they don't even sell it on Amazon
>>714573668 (OP)Hopefully they release a hardware revision with a better screen before it has enough games to make me wanna get one.
>>714611559That has literally nothing to do with what that anon said. And the OLED deck is more expensive than the Switch. The Deck shouldn't even be in threads like these because it's not a console and doesn't try to be one.
>>714610098>gee a platform with next to know marketing outside of steam usersoh so just marketing to a billion users?
>>714579032>dude sounds like he's about to cry because he has to download something
>>714611760the deck was literally made to leech on the handheld market the switch popularized so much
and the 4 million losers who bought the deck are the ones who made it's whole marketing become the "switch killer" so now you have to live with that failure being known as the contrarian switch alternative no one wants
Why do jews and liberals hate Nintendo so much?

>>714610384i could see them do some compensation thing for a price drop but i can't imagine them doing anything that's not possibly giving out a 50% coupon or a game voucher
>>714612156The Switch didn't succeed because it's a competent handheld anon.You know who makes up the vast majority of people buying switches?
Grandmas looking for something to get their nephews or nieces for their birthday. Young women who are interested in gaming and saw Animal Crossing on their pinterest reels. Young families or couples who want something small and cheap to play together. People who live in shared appartments who want a console that allows them to get hammered and then play Mario Kart or Brawl with eight people.
The Switch is specifically designed for people who are kinda into vidya but don't give a fuck about the display refresh rate, they want something that they plug into a wallsocket, pick up, download Mario and just go bing bing wahoo with some friends.
You can talk your mouth off how the Steamdeck has a better display, better battery, is faster, allows emulation, modding, etc, but 90% of the userbase of a Switch don't want or need those things, they want something small and easy to set up and play with friends or family
>>714573668 (OP)6 million?
While fighting a console war on two fronts?
>>714612867>realizes his obvious mistake but still doubles down anywayretard
>Forced consolewaryou started it and now you have to live with your failure being rubbed on your face with no way to stop it
the steam deck will be barely remembered, and even then, the only memory people will have of it is how it was a huge failure attempting to compete against the switch

>>714613156>all that wall of text to cope with people voting with their walletsyou spent years saying the deck would sell better and now all you have is embarrassment, failure and backpedaling
Applied my screen protector today. Noticed some micro scratches on the normal screen. I don't bother with screen protectors on most of my devices but I think this one needs it.
>>714573668 (OP)I'll probably get one in 2 or 3 years when it has a good amount of games on it.
>>714613454the switch 2 already comes with a screen protector so that's what got micro scratches
but it's still good to add another one, the one included is supposed to prevent screen shards from flying everywhere if someone manages to break it
>>714613410>The Switch is a console for people with healthy active social lifes while the Steamdeck is marketed towards people who own a gaming PC already and have pretty much no usecase for a portable PC>HAHAHA COPEAnon, are you okay? I own a switch, the Steamdeck is a retarded concept and anyone who isn't a dedicated tech-tuber could see this
>>714573668 (OP)I haven't bought one yet because it doesn't have games yet either. I might get one when it gets games.
>>714574220It'll probably be the reverse. BOTW "enhanced" is retailing for 70 dollars. A 2017 year old game is being sold higher than full price for a 60fps toggle. If anything, this is probably the cheapest the switch 2 will be.
>>714613697the switch is for people who play video games
the deck is for no one, retarded people just fall for it and then have to come up with excuses to justify their sunken cost
