For all their faults, you can't deny the bigwigs at Nintendo know how to run a game company.

>Ritual poster finally gave up

Trying times, huh?

>>714626148
he made the thread

>>714625816
Two months, this happened in May

>>714626359
even more pathetic.

>>714626462
It was corrected in two days because it happened during a weekend and microsoft support didn't give a fuck lol, that's how much of a non-issue it was

>>714626148
/v/ will never concince me that this isn't the best Lady has ever looked.

Reminder that PS5s are literally melting as we speak and Stellar Blade is in development for Switch 2

Nintendo won

>>714627639
dumping your cope folder now eric?

>>714627686
The funniest thing about it is that the PS5 one is so full of AI generated slop games that even the wikipedos there are wondering if the list should exist at all.

Nintendo is the most evil and greedy company in human history and it's not even close. If you support any of this, you deserve to die in prison. And you will.

>>714626007
Nintendo JP doesn’t have useless HR and DEI parasites bloating budgets and dev cycles.

>>714627965
Even Snoy memes are ports.

>He still tries to cope with the robot he betrayed in another thread
Even he knows it has weak legs.

>>714627880

Nintendo are evil plagiarism

Speaking of plagiarism, what will Sony's next big game that totally didn't steal from Nintendo be?

Shitendo is evil, and if you support them, you are evil too

I wonder how much of his unfunnyjunk folder he has left to go. It's still hilarious how no one on that site likes him.

>>714628595
what's this?

>>714628728
oh wow, a new one.

>>714628631
It's called not having any editing skills and them make a nice, concise meme into a Buckley comic.
And even Buckley at least tried to add a punchline.

>>714628768
Nah, that one's old as shit. Which is funny because Sony's latest game was literal toddler trash.

reminder that eric has admitted multiple times to having a CP folder.

>>714628876
i know it's old. I just meant him posting it is new.

Japan games have summer events with all the characters in swimsuits or less
chinese and korean games have summer events where all the characters are fully dressed, if they even have summer events at all

>>714631967
>Pro version costs $1500
>PS+ now costs $400

Virtous just said the Switch 2 is comparable to the Series S and more modern in certain aspects thanks to DLSS. Perhaps that's what caused the new spam

>>714632198
nah, it's the fact that Palworld lost 300k and hasn't been making money for Sony

Sony's "Palworld Entertainment" reports final loss of 42 million yen for fiscal year ending March 2025

Palworld Entertainment's final loss for the fiscal year ending March 2025 was 42 million yen. This was revealed in the "Financial Results Announcement" published in the "Official Gazette" on June 30th.

The company is a joint venture between Sony Music Entertainment (SME), Aniplex, and Pocket Pair.

It was established in July 2024 to promote the domestic and international licensing business for Pocket Pair's game "Palworld."

>>714632457
how the fuck does a port lose money?

>>714632570
probably the lawsuit, paying for collabs, and general pay. I doubt it's selling many copies these days. especially since it's on gamepass.

>>714632570
Because unlike pokemon, palworld was a fad

>>714632570
It's probably that they founded a multimedia company that isn't producing any multimedia.

>>714632841
It's almost as if making a multimedia project revolving around an unfinished game is a horrible idea.
They didn't learn from Inafune's fumble.

>>714629024
God, you can't believe how bad I can't wait for this thing.
When it flops we'll be able to finally put to rest the "Japan only cares about handhelds", "muh commute" and "muh hamster cage apartments" cope.
It's going to be glorious.

Why does famitsu threads defend garbage like scarlet and violet?

>>714632958
watch it be bigger than the switch 2 and just as thick as the Steam Deck

>>714632986
no one even mentioned those? did you finally OD on cope?

>>714633091
that was my first post in this thread

>>714633160
did I claim otherwise?

>>714632986
You lost and got raped, pedosnoyric

>>714633194
yes you acted like i said something before

>>714633252
I asked if your brain was fried from all the copium you are huffing. that in no way implies that you posted in the thread before.

>>714633312
but what cope am i huffing if i just asked a question? Again you didnt disprove me. Just admit you immediately thought i was your schizo cause these threads are insane asylum for schizos

>>714627801
>it's not even the right color
>it's showing the system as a white box despite being primarily a handheld
How are you so bad at this despite living with NDS 24/7/365?

>>714627801
FUNNNNNYROOOOOOOOO

>>714632457
Remember when third worlders claimed chinkworld was going to make pokemon fans switch to their game then the fad died a week later? lol

>>714633736
they released a much better game than scarlet/violet and sold more too. What more do you want? Ive seen more palworld threads recently than scarlet/violet threads since that game barely lasted a week

>>714633839
Literally didn't, erictranny.
Pokémon sold 25 million copies

>>714633839
Yawn, gonna have to try harder than that.

>>714634096
Does this look like a win to you? >>714632457

>>714634169
i think pokemon needs to win back its players more after pic related
>inb4 doesnt count again

For those that missed it, he believes there is no difference between owning 2d drawings and owning CP the way he does.

>>714634279
Gen10 isn't that far off, anon. It's as simple as releasing a new gen of games.

By the way im not eric, i just really hate modern pokemon like most pokemon fans but i know im gonna get infinite schizos attacking me so whatever. Havent touched pokemon ever since sword and shield raped it

Palworld news truly broke him

>>714634325
Meant for >>714634253

>>714634253
They'd simply release a new gen and then everyone's back to playing Pokémon.

>>714634369
>he's running away
sad

>>714634389
The one about it not being profitable?

>>714634498
why am i not allowed to dislike the new pokemon?

Has these threads become so long gone in schizo insanity that disliking new pokemon means you are an eric snoy faggot? I dont get it its actually disturbing me

>>714634530
yes. there's also the fact that the terraria collba didn't boost the player number much.

>>714634253
>>714634369
Pedosnoy,, you löst and got raped

>>714634578

We know who you are because of >>714634096
>>714633945

Korea lost. Japan won.

>>714634663
well im being called a snoy eric for even liking palworld over new pokemon which i dont get why cause scarlet was a sonic 06 tier disaster >>714634253

sure pokemon will always sell but why should i praise them? What do these threads get out of worshipping Nintendo? Its weird that during the Wii U days i hoped nintendo would comeback ontop, what i didnt expect is the insanity of cultists attacking you for when nintendo or pokemon company doesnt try or jews your money. I guess these threads are a monkey paw. They are somehow worse than the XIV threads. Guess im too old for nintendo

>>714634912
Fuck off, ACtrans

>>714632570
Only chinese play pal world and they dont have ps5s

>>714634958
>another boogeyman

i like a lot of games with cutscenes, something AC would never admit. Can these threads go 2 seconds without going full schizo and calling someone a name? I feel like im in a mental hospital

>>714634912
You are snoytrannies eic because of >>714634096

>>714634912
then leave and filter the threads if they bother you so much.

>People are loving and enjoying scarlet and violet thanks to the switch 2 patch
>meanwhile palworld is forgotten and chink devs are losing a lot of money
Nintendo won

>>714625467 (OP)
MACACO THREAD ALERT!!!
MACACO THREAD ALERT!!!

>>714634912
>act like a retarded snoy and seething randomly about nintendo games
>cry when you get called a snoy

>>714635103
if these threads exist just to call anyone a snoy eric or occasionally ACfag for just the slightest disagreement then why do they exist? If you cant disagree in a thread then they shouldnt exist because thats not what this site is for. Do you want famitsu threads to just be reddit tier where everyone is agreeing with each other?

>I'm not a schizo!
Says the schizo as he's found out.

>>714635186
Imagine if SKG manages to take off for good. Sony's plans will go down in flames.

>>714635261
Eric, seething about famitsu threads just proves it's you

>>714635325
it's not him. it's more likely the macaco

>no one is talking about pokemon
>palcuck starts seething and shitting himself
NDS is a magical disease

>>714626007
It's more that Nintendo knows how to run a "toy company" like they originally were/always have been. I don't mean in some insulting "Nintendo games are for babies unlike me a big macho man who plays GTA" way, but in how they still operate under the paradigm of
>Make doodad
>Sell doodad
Sony and Microsoft are giant bloated conglomerates whose leadership don't see them as producing any one thing to sell, but finding ways to extract rent.

So...everyone in this thread agrees that pokemon scarlet and violet is a good game?

>>714635625
sure. does that make you happy? did you get the answer you wanted? gonna keep playing the victim?

>>714633020
Thats a given, It will use a amd apu

>>714635876
why is it good? What makes that godawful game good aside from having the nintendo logo on it? And i dont wanna hear because its fun, explain why

>>714629136
Port incoming. Gonna be fun looking back at this posts if it happens.

>>714632059
Angain?

is this the new cope? trying to cry about a pokemon game existing?

>>714632198
Only in 60w

>>714635915
It's good because I like it. The DLC and playing on the switch 2 makes it even better.

>>714636096
>its good cause you like it

so you really have no reasoning? If Nintendo released ac shadows, you would just suddenly like it because its nintendo. You really just showed everyone ITT that you just like anything nintendo and anything that isnt is BAD. You are fucked in the head

Nuke j*pan again until they stop being tendies

Why do people always use Xenoblade and Monolith for their Nintendo multiplatform shitposting?

>>714641968
but xe won, fugu and hernia totally killed nintento....

>>714642019
Monolith wasn't owned by Nintendo originally and used to do stuff on the PS2 (namely Xenosaga), so they see it as a huge blow.

>>714641396
>Likes to post smug anime girls when things go wrong
>Last thread he admitted he thinks owning 2D and 3D porn is the same
>>714634279
Makes you think.

>>714642019
>>714642129
Don't forget monolith were fairly close to faglus during that time, which angers normalfags because after faglus went full woke they feel they were "robbed" of an ally through monolith being fully acquired by nintendo.

Kunitsu Gami any good? Debating getting it

>>714642019
Monolith was a third party before and retards see other xeno games and think they are just contractors for Nintendo.

Thing is, they are a first party studio since 2009 or so, and Iwata was the one pushing for Xeno name.

>>714643580
Honestly no, it's actually kind of disgusting gameplay wise.
It feels like an abortion between dragon's dogma 2 and the MH wilds mechanics, but without anything that made each of those series stand out from any other action game, and if that wasn't enough it tries to shoehorn in rollslop elements through the boss combat design making shit feel more like a souls boss than a MH mon or big DD enemy.
Add to that the usual modern UE jankyness and blurry graphics and it legit feels just gross to play somehow.

>>714636538
What the fuck did those niggers at compile heart do now?

>>714644331
Basically admitted to lying about Nintendo censoring their games.

>>714627639
Dark Witch 4 is on Steam though?

>SE can't do shit with gears because it would catch Nintendo attention and staff still is active.
>Bamco can't vomit Xenosaga HD because staff work at Nintendo and shit is unfinished either way, not mention they pretty much gave up and slapped saga stuff on recent games.

Hilarious but also fucked.

>Using the "Players" instead of hard sales cope
Reminds me of something else~

>>714643580
it's generic jeetware with constant reuse of content for padding and the gameplay is not deep beyond button mashing attacks and skills
avoid, your money is better spent elsewhere

>>714644664
>Bamco can't vomit Xenosaga HD
Actually the original staff a MS would be perfectly happy to work in a Xenosaga remaster but the higher ups at Bamco "doesn't think it will be profitable".

>>714636538
Explain the steam client thing, pls.

>>714644842
player numbers are pitiful for a supposedly super popular gacha.
the real drama is that the morons in charge are going to get the game kicked off of steam because of their review campaign.

>>714642278
So pretty much Nintendo saved Monolith in a way.

>>714644145
>It feels like an abortion between dragon's dogma 2 and the MH wilds mechanics
Huh? Isn't it like a completely different kind of game? I thought it was like a tower defense.

>>714644979
Ty, anon.

>>714644664
the fact that square and bamco are too mindrotten by sony to allow a xenogears/saga remaster/HD/port to exist because it would also be on switch is a shame

>>714644817
Not that, look at Tales and Baten Kaitos ports.

Both run like absolutely shit.

>>714644842
NTA but
>Gooks constantly brag about how popular BA and other gookslop is, using metrics like comiket doujins as "proof".
>Gachaniggers constantly ask for PC clients for their gachaslop for whatever reason, with BA obviously being included in the list.
>Basically all of them constantly say they would move to a PC client in a heartbeat to stop using their phones and android emulators.
>The BA client does in fact come out.
>The numbers are fucking abysmal. >>714634783
>Reminder this is a gacha, so there SHOULD be a massive surplus of constant daily players.
>Especially whenever the big regions (asia and the americas) wake up given seanigs, indogs and spics/macacos are very close to those timezones.
>This accidentally ended up outing nexon over the fact all the BA popularity and "cultural impact" is literally just astroturfed.
Reminder uma musume is not even a particularly big gacha either, while it makes decent money it's nowhere near dokkan or FGO, let alone IM@S or pokemon TCG.

>>714644842
This.
>>714634783
BA did poorly in player numbers so they're begging people now and that's against the Steam ToS.

>>714644817
Which is code for "We will never allow saga to be Nintendo exclusive"

>>714645047
no, it's a generic action-exploration game
the tower defense elements barely amount to much and are comparable to those quests where you have to defend some NPC or gizmo from waves of enemies
honestly it's basically assassins creed shadows: crapcom edition

>>714645149
Horse Racing w/ anime girls is a niche as hell thing outside Japan, and it still did better than the more generic Anime School Girls of BA which just shows that as you said, it's astroturfed to hell back and forth.

>>714645016
They 100% saved monolith. Namco basically gave it to them as a gift because they were a shitty developer in many aspects. Nintendo tardwrangled them into what you see today, without Nintendo Monolith would be a name of the past like Factor Five and Silicon Knights. That's why you see the usual suspects shitpost so much about Xenoblade, and why you see random "IT'S COMING TO PC" bait pop up from time to time. The people who didn't buy a single Xeno game while they were Sony only are Jealous they can't get it now

Out of curiosity I checked the numbers ATM.
Uma is around 30K while BA has now dropped to below the 10K mark.

>>714645116
Don't they run better on Switch 2? I heard they hit 60fps now

>>714645389
Namco have fuck all to do with that, in fact Monolith staff had some connections with Nintendo and asked for that. They got independent not much after Xenosaga 3.

>>714645360
How long until some lonely coomer tries to fuck one of these horses and gets potato-stomped?

>>714645813
You really think Namco would have allowed that sale with Nintendo, especially at the time, if they actually felt they needed them? Monolith is on record saying their relation with Bamco soured and they were basically put on timeout

>>714645962
those horses live under constant yakuza oversight, there's not a chance in hell anyone not authorized to be near them actually does

>>714645705
Tales of Symphonia run like ass even on other consoles, and problems get worse because shit still use that shitty PS2 port as base, meaning everything is capped at 30 fps.

Not mention other issues like bugged dialogues and all sorts of fuckery. Other ports are tad better but also have similar issues.

Baten Kaitos is similar status.

>>714645679
Why can't gooks at least bot the game? They bot everything else.

>>714645962
Lot of horses are male lol.

Not mention that fair amount of them already died.

>>714646162
I should have made it clear I meant the Baten Kaitos remasters. The symphonia port can be put on Nasa computers and it will still run at 30 because those faggots at bamco would rather use the shitty ps2 version than acknowledge it was ever a gamecube title

>>714645092
Monolith was lucky enough to wrangle KOS-MOS and others for Xenoblade 2

>>714646251
The fact that the real Gold Ship gets hard every time he hears the word mating is hilarious.

>>714646302
Monolith didn't had any sort of plans for Xenoblade, in fact it was called Monado beggining of the world, first game is quite light on references despite still using whole gnostic theming.

After 2 they said fuck it and now are redoing whole perfect works, helps that Nintendo gives them blank approval for whatever now.

>>714647305
pretty much

>>714647305
FUCKING ZOHARS

HOW DO THEY WORK

>>714649420
Xenoblade 2 cemented their position even if game got utterly fucked by zelda and mostly outsourced as result. Quite influential despite everything.

>Sold rare to Microsoft
>bought Monolithsoft
>NTR'd Hal and IntSys
Why did Nintendo do it?

>>714650000
>>NTR'd Hal and IntSys
qrd? first time i hear of this

>>714650000
Intsys and Hal have quite good relationship with them, what you saying?

>>714650101
Nintendo had planned to acquire them in the late 1990s but changed their minds

>>714650171
>Nintendo planned to buy intsys.
They dodged a mountain sized bullet.

>>714650171
They don't have any particular reason to, fire emblem is leashed and fuckload of Kirby stuff is co owned by Nintendo.

Their other IPs are foot note.

>>714632570
That's not the game itself or its developer, it's a licensing business sort of like The Pokemon Company.
Pocket Pair are the developers and they're rolling in the dough. Palworld Entertainment on the other hand, is basically a scheme to milk investors for cash on promises of future spinoffs and multimedia that don't exist.
It's another case of "Sony dumps money into black hole trying to copy another company, more news at 11"

>>714650171
Nevermind, intsys, not arcsys, my hateboner for arcsys blinded me for a sec there.
I thought they already owned IS like they do monolith.

>>714650000
Nintendo didn't have majority ownership of Rare and sold its portion when the brothers sold their shares to Microsoft.

>>714650601
High ups didn't wanted sell, and MS slapped stamper brothers with wads of cash.

They couldn't do much besides outbid MS, which would be ridiculous costly.

>>714650000
rare sold THEMSELVES to microsoft then got pissy when nintendo didn't want to go into a bidding war with microsoft

>>714650971
even back then their games were not worth going into a bidding war over with fucking microsoft, the fuck were they expecting?

>>714650971
Meanwhile
>second NLG risked being bought out by probably Ubisoft or EA they snapped their ass up and turned them into a first party studio instantly

>>714651615
The stampers wanted out and Nintendo saw the writing on the wall, people seldom mention the fact that talent was getting out of rare at the time

>>714645149
The new tactic is to claim it's actually Uma Musume that's a forced psyop.

>>714652094
that's an admission BA is astroturfed to shit if anything

>>714626007
>TFW even when Nintendo fucks up executively with Digital Physical Games they still know how to make Games still
>TFW also Microsoft and Sony can not figure out how it all works.
What the fuck lol. Nintendo may as well name itself Immortal Game Creator because literally they will be around far longer than anyone else and continue into the next 100 years at this rate, while Microsoft and Sony abandon the market if they do not get it together.

>>714652094
>Everything Koreans and their shills do is project what they do to others
That actually explains our schizo's general behavior.

>>714653079
>Nintendo fucks up executively with Digital Physical Games
reminder goykeys were a honey trap to fuck over jew third parties
reminder virtual key cards are literally just digital ownership plus, allowing you to lend shit

>>714635525
Agreed and not only that but the executives and investors are out of touch, "Better graphics" "More cutscenes" "huge budgets" "More LIVE SERVICES" then they get rejected and end up losing billions and wonder why they can not get into the market at all. It's like they do not know how to make games or how they work and one must know that to be able to do that before they can call themselves worthy of being called a "GAMING" company.

>>714644979
>>714645153
I swear to god, if Blue Archive gets banned from Steam, they will deserve it for being retards in the first place. Literally do not inflate your review count by offering free stuff for reviews. It's not a good idea. But you know everyone who says South Korea based, Japan is DEI. They just do not listen.

>>714653462
You know remember Project KV by the rogue Blue Archive devs being stillborn because of how incredibly dumb they were about the whole thing.

>Xbox firing thousands of people again so Nadella can waste money on AI
>Sony can barely publish one game a year
>everybody freaking out about GTA6 missing 2025, "survive till 25" never manifested so the longterm effects of what GTA6 might've done for the market are still unknown
>meanwhile Nintendo, publishing reasonably budgeted games that didn't take over a decade to make:

>>714653287
>It's like they do not know how to make games or how they work
Investors and execs generally do not know a thing about the products they're tied to because they are so high up the chain they basically only get whispers of the whispers of the thing. They only think of stuff as products in the most raw sense imaginable and nothing else.

>>714653563
Yes I understand, it's just South Korea is listening to 3rd worlders, which is not a bright idea if you wish to run a successful business model. Sure they can like fanservice(I do as well), they can support you online, they can post memes. But when it comes to understanding distribution, and rules they seem to like breaking them a lot and cry foul.

>>714653919
Playing the victim is what they're best at.

>>714653880
They would do great in the South Korean and Chinese market lol. Everything is disposable there. I wonder why they only target Japanese companies and Western ones because they care about the long term.

>>714645679
It actually gets even fucking funnier.
Turns out the umamusume game has it's playerbase split across 2 releases, as they are region locked one to japan and one to the rest of the world.
>JP version: 6,292 players right now. 8,678 all-time peak 27 June 2025.
https://steamdb.info/app/3564400/charts/
>Globab version: 27,838 players right now. 34,017 all-time peak 5 July 2025.
https://steamdb.info/app/3224770/charts/

>>714653729
All the Switch 2 misinfo and smearing is also just backfiring and serving as more advertisement for the thing. Not shutting up about it makes it so it's always on people's mind thus increasing sales.

>>714645149
>using metrics like comiket doujins as "proof"
BAfags are modern KanColle fags?
good to know

>>714628374
I'd not be surprised if they went for the hybrid approach with the PS6, even if it's two skus.
Because honestly what would be the point of a more powerful PS5? It's ridiculous how long games take to make these days, going hybrid would allow them to cut back on that.

>>714626007
Nintendo are the last great video game company. We must cherish and protect them.

>>714654142
I still don't know why these schizos think being deranged assholes will somehow stop others from buying a switch 2

>>714653249
3rd parties basically demanded them. Nintendo basically said as much while tactfully avoiding throwing them under the bus entirely.

>>714657045
What are these people mad about?

>>714657202
Nintendo existing. Honestly you get the same shit out of Xbox.
Look at how many articles were posted about Xbox hardware being dead or Forza being dead and then the actual news was
>this dude that hasn't worked there in years said some shit
rather than some actual official motion. It's like how much Nintendo stuff is just random AI summations of things Kit & Krysta said this week, which will be of less and less value the longer they haven't worked for Nintendo.

>>714632570
Its almost like you can't make a successful franchise out of people hate buying a game to "own" Nintendo.

>>714632570
It's not just the port it's all the stuff they're doing to try to make it Pokemon/Sanrio but not controlled by Pokemon/Sanrio

>>714654110
is this bad?

>>714657202
People with late stage NDS become unhinged and violent at the sight of anyone playing a nintendo system

>>714655461
And lose them the audience they indoctrinated into only wanting the absolute best graphics while shitting on anything less

>>714657202
Third worlders and broke lefties are mad because they can't afford it. They were hoping the console will flop so nintendo can lower the price but everyone is buying it so they're taking their unhinged anger towards S2 owners

>>714659064
The Xbox One launched for 499 and no one complained about it (they complained about everything else regarding the system)
The PS5 launched for 499 and, once again, no one gave a shit. A digital version launched for 100 less and no one went on a campaign about how you don't own the games you buy due to being digital
Same exact story with the Xbox Series, except the digital only cost less than the physical one. Again, no one got their panties in a bunch.
Yet the moment Nintendo releases a console that's still cheaper than the competition and is compatible with physical media out the box, everyone acts like the anti-christ pressed the nuclear button

>>714659473
Its more than that
Sony released a digital only "pro" version of the PS5 that was $800 before they raised the price multiple times, that had a disk drive you had to buy that cost $80 and if you didn't connect to the internet it was bricked out of the box
And NONE of the journos or youtube grifters did went on a crusade like they have against the switch 2 and nintendo

>>714657491

GeHa hit the nail on the head

>>714657202
I still don't understand how they got this psychotic.
The "issues" they believe Switch 2 has don't affect them in any way. Why not just go back to playing Fortnite on their PS5s?

>>714646098
From what I remember Nintendo tried to acquire Namco before the merger with Bandai but in the end Bandai won out so a way to get Nintendo to give up the shares they had in order to begin the acquisition they gave them Monolith who was already on the outs with Namco but Nintendo had an interest in them for some fucking reason so they took the deal

>>714649669
In many ways it was for the best since they basically get a blank check from Nintendo and now they are Nintendo’s biggest non EPD studio I think. Definitely bigger than HAL, IS or Next Level

So this tread is hating on all mobile games too?

>>714625467 (OP)

Yes? What kind of fucking newfag are you? Hating mobile games has been the default since fucking forever. Not just in this thread. Not just across /v/. But sitewide. It was the norm across the entire Internet.
Are you gacha addicted to the point where you haven't been able to recognize that?
