Thread 723432773

So where are the updated sales? Did it bomb? You think you'd be shouting it from the rooftops if this bundle actually moved significant numbers and yet nothing.

it flopped. tons of stock in my local store

>>723432773 (OP)
it's been out for not even a day, and they don't reveal sales numbers until their quarterly/yearly reports

>>723432773 (OP)
it hasn't even been a day, you godamn retard

>>723434429
Ever heard of stocked shelfs? It's availiable in every game store still.

Waaaay to many insane sycophants for it to bomb

>>723436102
Switch 2 never had a supply issue and sold a gorillion first quarter

>>723432773 (OP)
It’s a dead console.

It's been bombing since launch. Momentum dried up immediately after.

A lot of diehards have given up on the series but kids are still buying the games in droves.
It's the best seller for games atm on Amazon so that alone should tell you it's doing fine.

>>723436883
Wrong, it's the other way around - it's mainly millennials and early zoomers keeping Pokemon games afloat. Younger kids mainly go for the shows and merchandise.

>>723437002
You're right, I was stupid for thinking kids might play a children's game.

>>723437074
Straight from Nintendo's own fucking mouth, millennials are their biggest demographic by far. Now are you going to make another sassy snarkpost and try to call Nintendo liars without directly saying those words to have your cake and eat it too, or will you be a good boy and shut the fuck up?

My girlfriend bought us each a copy as a surprise gift today. I think you'll be disappointed when you see the numbers.

>>723437312
I literally just agreed with you?
Obviously kids are going out there and buying the system themselves with their jobs negating the need for the parents to set up a parental block.

>>723437412
Why would you buy a second copy just for your left hand?

imagine being an innocent parent and buying this for your kid and then they play that absolute scam pokemon game, all of this for like $600 after tax

honestly this should be illegal

>>723437312
>millennials
This graph shows that people in their early 20's are the biggest demo aka zoomers

The echo chamber always bitches and whines about the current release of Pokemon, EVERY RELEASE. It fucking happens because people take a game where you raise wild monster too seriously.

It's the biggest franchise in the world. It's going to sell extremely well. Don't listen to the faggots moaning complaints on social media.

>>723438252
That graph was from 2020. The youngest millennials would fit into that age group, anon.

Why are people so obsessed with sales numbers?

>>723438787
Because Nintendofags desperately need Nintendo caving into adopting $500 hardware and $70 games to be validated and not blow up in their faces hot off the heels of spending the past half-decade pretending to hate Sony and Microsoft for those exact things.

>>723438787
Because you gloat about them, we rub them back in.

>>723439086
>>723439115
Neither of these posts answered my question or had anything to do with it.

>>723439213
>"why are people obsessed with sales numbers?"
>give you an answer why Nintendo fans care about sales numbers
I gave you an answer. You just didn't like it.

>>723439310
No you just used it as an excuse for your consolewar slop.

Looking forward to Famitsu sale numbers next week:

>what's 2+2?
>and no, don't say "4", give me a REAL answer

>>723439505
notice how this is what you're excited for instead of games

>>723439517
You should try answering my question if you plan to respond to me.

>>723439604
Retard. You're in a thread about how will Pokemon will do.

>>723439627
How was what I said not an answer?

>>723439505
>>723439604
I am excited for the SPAIN sales report next week

>>723438603
Those are not millennials, retard. If you are under 30 you are a goddamn zoomer.

>>723439717
Because it is not holistic and instead only covered Nintendo and not all groups.

>>723439847
The cutoff for Millennials was in the late 90s. 2020 (which, again, is when that chart came out) was less than 25 years away from the years that comprise the late 90s.

>>723439927
Your question wasn't holistic either then, since it was asked in a Nintendo thread specifically.

>>723437312
Wait a second, this is a cutoff effect. You need to be over a certain age (probably 18, with the chart taken a few years after console launch) to use a certain feature, so everyone selects that age if they are under it.

>>723432773 (OP)
This is actually fucking grime as hell.
My brother got the Switch 2 bundle so I got to see actual gameplay and the game looks and plays so shit, I just cannot cope that grown fucking adults are willingly buying this shit.

>>723439998
>if you were born in 1995 you are a zoomer

gee, for being such devout loyalists and shitposting on Nintendo's behalf every hour of every day here, /v/illennials are suddenly quite fucking averse to actually owning their data-backed larger share of the modern Nintendo consumerbase

>>723436883

Anon...

It hasn't been a whole day yet, you ass. Calm the fuck down.

>>723438162
Is the game less fun because of this?

>>723440334

Why does it bother you?

>>723442130
because people validating low quality for high prices means Nintendo keeps pushing the envelope on how much more they can scale back effort and/or scale up pricing for it

>>723442224

Eh, just Game Freak and Pokemon, really. Nintendo still seems to try.

>>723442049
Yes because atmosphere and fidelity become more important if they expect to start charging $70 for games.

>>723442130
Because I am a conscientious person.

I think this just proves that ultimately graphics don't matter.

Sorry /v/.

>>723443245
So the Switch 2 was pointless then.
