>"If you're not aware, when the Switch 2 came out, there was one new game, Mario Kart World. And outside of that, every other game was a port that you could already have played on another platform. Why then did they release Mario Kart World as the only exclusive? And then why did they release this game one month later? Artificial scarcity. By doing it like that, everyone had to buy Mario Kart World at launch or else they had nothing to play on the Switch 2. So, everyone did. Now, it's a month later and everyone realized, we're kind of bored of Mario Kart. There's no content. So, they run out and they buy Donkey Kong Bonanza."
>"But here's the thing. If Nintendo had released both of those games at launch, people would have just chosen one or the other. Artificial scarcity. By making only one available then the next, what you've done is created a situation where people want to keep spending to keep using their console because they feel like they've already invested so much. They want to keep spending. So in another few months, I guarantee you we'll have an update. Metroid Prime 4 is coming out, right? And that's what Nintendo seems to be doing. They knew they didn't have a killer lineup for the launch of this console. So make it seem like it's exclusive."
Is he right?
I don't care to verify if that's a real interview, but planning your release dates is just a basic business practice.
I'm just glad scalping tendies over the holidays is viable again.
>>715817957 (OP)No because Mario Odyssey did the same thing. The game is $80. The other is $70. Its way too much fucking money.
gabe is a faggot that shuts down godtier fan projects to keep his casino shit version of counter-strike the only option thoughbeit
>>715817957 (OP)How would have Valve handled the Switch 2 release?
>>715817957 (OP)ok but this doesn't work on me as I only care about Zelda and Metroid and think all other nintendo shit is anime weeb shit or baby shit.
>>715817957 (OP)yes and there's nothing wrong with that
>>715818260Who was recording this anyway?
>>715818604Half Life 1 pre installed on every Switch 2.
>>715818610zelda is baby shit too sorry anon
>>715818604The same as the Index so one game and then never release a game again for it.
>>715819018don't forget discontinuing the hardware after a year or two to move on to the next grift, which your loyal goyim will happily slurp up anyway
that people already forgot about steam machines, steam link, the controller, and now VR, is fucking absurd despite those being fairly recent
>>715817957 (OP)I didn't know Gaben was such a problematic personality.
YIKES!
>gaben in 2025
he is automatically wrong even if he is right
>>715817957 (OP)Gabe looks really good now, crazy how much weight he's lost.
>>715817957 (OP)It's pretty obvious, retard.
This happened already before Switch 2 was released anyway.
Nintendo fans are so hopelessly addicted, they should have charged $300 for Mario Kart World and just have it be an empty box. Make the paypigs bankrupt.
>>715819832Right? He makes a mockery of fan loyalty! Noble Nintendo fans have waited 4000 years for the chance to enjoy their new console.
>>715817957 (OP)He's right, it's the same strategy they used for the original Switch, release one game that everyone will play, after they had their fill, give them another feast.
Nvidia does the same trick
Artificial scarcity and make 'em pay whatever we charge!
>>715820718They've been using that strategy since the wii. They probably even did it with the gamecube but nobody noticed because everyone was buying a ps2.

>>715819894I'm afraid i must disagree with you, fellow Axis Cultist.
>>715817957 (OP)He's right except the last part. Nintendo doesn't lack a killer lineup, they lack a singular good game
>>715819894>Turn undead>It doesn't turn you into an undead>In fact, it dispels undeathFucking bullshit, I tell ya.
>>715817957 (OP)it doesn't matter. I'm not buying their shitty rip off console. I'd rather set my money on fire
>>715817957 (OP)Can he just announce what the fuck HLX is already
Artificial scarcity is the goal for corporations. NFT was the first try to induce it. Don't fall for it. Stay aware.
>>715820368Woah... cool it with the anti nintendoism
>>715817957 (OP)That and the part about paid updates for next gen -- after Metroid it might be just updates to XC or something else
And that's optimistic because they might update some Mario port that has already been running well
>>715817957 (OP)It's both right and so obvious it's not even really worth saying. Nintendo have spent a long time mastering the art of spacing out their main titles and filling in the gaps with low-effort C-list series and second party games of varying quality just enough to make it look like there's always something coming out and no more. I don't know if we'll ever see a really strong singular year from Nintendo because they'd so much rather space out releases.
