SwitchForce

We all here have to take a step back and consider this is about lifetime sales (no longer in production consoles) vs current active sales. Considering factor it's just amazing how fast the Switch sold in 7 years of production starting in 2017 from v1, v2, OLED models along with the Lite.

Well times changed and studio change-that's how it falls it seems nowdays. But creativity is what sustains a game platform and continues to create more games that everyone can enjoy.

@koffing They have a lot of information about the Switch 2 hardware and modern gaming technology. Did you watch their 30+ min breakdown of the GTA 6 tech?

This a matter of opinion only not factual or actual hardware being shown for anyone to know what it is or what GTA is really like since neither of these two are in hands of DF to begin with. They can only speculate about the Switch 2(?) and GTA but have nothing concrete to show anyone of either that anyone can gleam from.

The bad I looked at their games they created and none of those are in my Physical collections or eShop. Oh well, I guess I just game on with others games I have.

And all these numbers while still in production only 7 years to do this? That in itself is a feat to do such sales figures. And the software only helps to fuel more Switch console sales.

Another of those DLC that I need to get back to the game.

Will give Palia a try....

Funny how people think they can decide what GTA comes to Switch when they aren't in the Devs team. It marvels the mind people thinking they are the Devs and also DF has no Devs insight beyond their talking points so that in itself is no confirmation of much of anything at this point for games they are not part of or development for and or Switch 2 console R&D from Nintendo. Anyone with their right mind would see the NDA writing on the wall to avoid any legal proceeding from Nintendo.

No fame issue so far since I started playing it. I think users should tamper their expectations here. This game more runs enough on current Switch units. It might be different with a Switch 2 but then again it's not out nor any test unit to verify anything but rumors. But specs be told a T239 and DLSS/RT/RTL would help alot in improve gameplay but since no Devs are going to violate their NDA without massive consequences all we have are rumours without being to specific to expose the leakers.

The thing I find about their dissing of a Switch 2 that has never come out? Is there something they aren't telling us that they had the Switch Development Kits and now fumbing the results? The more I hear they talk about the Switch 2 and lack of power the less I find them creditable at this point.

Probably pickup this game for collectors sake.

Considering Gaming companies can do thier own directs from their company site to youtube-you have to wonder how this would last.

Another couch potato reporting has no idea of how to get such events going and knowing everything has time restraints and the host can only follow the script they are given. If NL and it's reporters can do better why not make your own Live TV game awards and see how well you plans compares to theirs.

So where does one go to get this event?

If people think these threats are just jokes - take a Japanese politician that was running for PM that was shot with a HomeMadeGun and ask yourself how safe are you? And Japan is a relative safe country to start with. Bodily harms threats shouldn't be taken lighten in this day and age. If people haven't forgotten about this event that happen not to far back.

Got plenty of other DQM that I need to get back to as well...

Had to redo my Preorder since a store staff cancelled my previous preorder of this game.

Since I don't MMO I won't be on this game. If it had a physical I might just buy it for collection purpose.

Still stuck at the house need to get that part done while avoiding the other dog that keeps stealing my pikmins.

They are just presenting the Game Reveals/Awards not doing Directs people need to realize this. If people are so uptight why did they even watch this? They just have rants to make nothing that could be useful is how I see this. They have Committees and Planning Teams that does these events-the hosts follow those guides they can't change the format because of one person.

@Rooty How does one think smartphones apps are so free to use as well? Nothing can survive with some kinda ads-unless you want to pay a subscription to keep it going yearly? Take online sites that uses ads so you can access them for free aka email yahoo, gmail? You wouldn't have those services without some kinda ads, Right?? People are just for the flick of the day-not thinking all the planning and staff needed to make this works isn't just a let's just do this DayOne that isn't going to happen people.

He isn't the people behind how and what events are planned and how they proceeded. Everyone on here needs to learn your not the planner your the host and that's the part you play. People posters on here are a joke they have no idea of the planning and timing of events and they don't follow your schedule they have a schedule to follow for good or bad.

Just cause no Switch mention doesn't mean much of anything. They most likely are waiting for Switch 2 to come out before porting for Switch 2.

No news for Switch 2 yet even though someone from Nintendo was credit as part of BG3?????

Wonder if they will give us the DQM treatment???? Where we can finally play Zelda?

It's a tricky balancing act, to be sure, but we're hopeful that Geoff Keighley will take the feedback on board and give developers a little bit more time on stage next year. After all, without them, there wouldn't be a Game Awards show.

NL should know better here. Everything has time allotment how events are scheduled and going over doesn't help other participants present their own showing. Geoff Keighley has nothing to give to Developers there is a Team of Production that sets time and events - that tells everyone how and when things run and goes. If anything it's the Developers whom should know how much time they should give to present and tell their development teams acknowledge and move on. Everyone has their own Direct from company to YouTube to host their Directs to their FanBase. NL lost alot of credibility for this one-sided news post now.

@maroonhawk Signed, a live events worker

There we have it - events have a time limit so everything goes smoothly and to the next stage without delays. We got way too many whom have no idea on how these events are planned and run that shouldn't be taking as though they know more - other words they know squat.

@GameOtaku - I think this was more a expect Japanese game more then a world phenomenal game sale. That was the mistake they did. Most like the DQM series but this was the unexpected one. They most likely will have more physical after the Holiday assuming Switch 2 doesn't get announced here.

Wonder if this is aka OPEN WORLD or not????

Speech is good but one should do within the time limit so as to not boast yourself. That can come off as good or bad. Everyone is obligated to follow a time limit for good reasons. This isn't anything against himself but he should know everyone else deserves their spotlight as well. If anyone has every taken a Speech Class or Public Speaking one should know the longer you go the worse your speech gets and misses the point all together. One a rare few aka MJK/JFK were good orators that made speech matter. This isn't a snub at the Nintendo content creator they all have rules they agreed to follow to allow others to be presented as well. Also Nintendo will have their own Direct what part did others on here miss? They can go hours and hours on Nintendo Direct if they choose to do so. This is a GameShow not GamePlay aka SHOW? It's to present upcoming and what's new and the announcer gets the time to do their job what else did others miss here as well.

Sounds like a new game is coming????

@GameOtaku Solution? Make more physical copies soon. It’s that simple. Consumers want it physically.

You think it was the simple right that would make more sales for them. eShop wasn't why it sold out they need to understand this sooner then later.

It would be good to see the Switch trailer to see how it runs.

Hope when it release it's updated all on cart.

For me it's about catching and making the best party....

Gott'em grab them all.....

Looks like the Switch 2 is out of the bag.... lmao....

Need to dive back and only do when I need to get those bonus DLC and updates.

I thought they didn't have to restart to start the console????

DQM is about monster catching to me sure knowing the ending is good but the game is catching monster and switching them back and forth to get the best ranks. Sure grinding is hard and DQM seems to be good at that thing.

And in the USA they get squat right? Isn't the USA suppose to be the market for games sales?

@stevep Limited Run is almost as bad as only having a download code in the box

If you think that is bad try eBay prices and see how those prices gouge even more. So let's be clear here LRG is far better then paying MSRP prices for a Digital code that could be sold for less then half since those MSRP are for the cost of the packaging and case and Physical games. So there is a reason for those prices.

Back from the dead here is a video that will tells the truth about why they charge MSRP for Digital when you should get it for far less. And still relevant to today as well.

More Demos please....so I can waste my storage space....

"no plans to bring Game Pass to PlayStation or Nintendo"
Is no one surprise by this....

Great so far alot of Grinding if you expect to win at the tournaments games. Got alot of grinding now rescure the Elf girl but the skeletons need to level up more just fighting them and need to catch one of them. But the team points are two low right now. Grinding and more Grinding alot of work to level up. Now Lvl 11 but man that Elf world needs more grinding. ugh....

This needs Switch 2 with T239.....sooner then later....

Will wait for Physical release.

TOTK, another innovation that uses one imagination to create good and indecent inventions what else can one ask for???

The fact it has a female lead should be something of value in a male dominated games leads. We should all be agreeable with this start.
