Re: Switch 2 Sales Reportedly Struggled Over The Christmas Period

@Discostew Ah yes, maybe the way it was worded originally came off as unclear when I first read it.
And now with the issue of memory prices going through the roof, I just see little point in waiting to buy consoles anymore. I remember how shocked I was to see the PS4 get a price increase years after launch. I'm old enough to remember the formula that consoles always go down in price over time, not up. 😰
Now it happened to PS5/XB, and I won't be surprised if S2 increases as well, but not cause of Nintendo "being greedy" as some misinformed people imagine.

@kraventhehunter1 With how brainrotted kids (and adults) are these days, I certainly don't want Nintendo to compromise their design philosophy and start producing mobage-type slop. I'll happily stay a gaming dinosaur. 🦕
Stuff like NEX will not be a serious threat to the traditional gaming market. It was also very cheap by comparison, but that cheapness comes with limitations, being mostly Kinect-type applications. To date, NEX has sold about 800K.

@Neonix Uhh, Mario Kart is absolutely a system seller. The attach rate is among the highest of all 1st party games throughout generations.

Happy with my S2, won't end up paying more when the price hikes come again, I just want some more compelling exclusives like DK or Metroid. Another 3D Mario is desperately overdue. As well as a Zelda that abandons the awful BOTW aesthetic/mechanics.
I couldn't give two 💩's about Pokemon, Air Riders, Mario Tennis or Hyrule Warriors, for one reason or another. 🤷‍♂️

Re: Shovel Knight Dig Gets Limited Switch Physical Edition From Super Rare Games

@RupeeClock Then one discovers a game years later, one looks for a copy, only to discover in horror that it was published by Limited Run and is now most likely unavailable. The preorder window has never been a valid excuse for these continued practices.
And that's aside from the drop in quality, the corner cutting, the outright lying to customers, etc.. Absolute garbage company.

Re: UK Charts: Metroid Prime 4 Falls From The Top Ten

@Jireland92 Because people are easily fooled and quick to jump on hate bandwagons when they're told to by others. I have one friend who is especially ultra-annoying for this trait, letting others make up one's mind. It's beyond infuriating.

@Elektrogeist1287 Best idea; be quiet and let gamers have options. You're the type who melted down like a baby during the superguide days on the Wii. Don't want it, don't use it. Problem solved.

Don't ever Google "accessibility controller" if you wish to avoid an aneurysm, oh heaven forbid...
