Re: Soapbox: Alex And Dom Discuss If Dark Souls Will Really Work On Switch

That's the answer i expected

Regardless, they are classed as hybrid, sales have nothing to do with it, doesn't matter if they only sold 1, they do the same as switch. With that logic the switch is just a handheld with TV out, same with jxd

There wasn't a argument, just pointing out that switch wasn't the only choice out there like you claimed, not saying jxd or GPD are the best thing ever, great for retro though

Hmm there are ZERO choices for hybrid gaming until now

I know you know that isn't true, we have chatted before about JXD & GPD XD, yep both hybrids and on the market before ninty's hardware, plus there are others

Spreading false info isn't good for the soul, a Dark Soul

Yeah yeah yeah blah blah, but, but Nintendo made it mainstream, regardless false info is a dark place, it effects others that might believe it

It's that Fanboy thing again you got going on

Well i am doing my part, i only have Skyrim & Doom on switch. This will be followed up by wolfenstein, Dark Souls, Bayonetta 3 and the only Nintendo game i want Prime 4. I am one of those that have jumped from vita to switch, i will never dock it, for me personally it's a handheld but if Sony or MSoft make a handheld then i would jump again, I don't favour a company I am a handheld fan that's all, though i did have a wii u because i could play off TV, yes I did buy most 3rd party games for it, shame many didn't

Hey. Apparently everything is been gobbled up so i can't see why devs would be concerned, i have been led to believe their all doing great and saturation shouldn't be a problem, obviously i don't believe this and some games ain't doing great.

All said and done, what do I know, the scenario that all games are flying just simply can't be true. I want it to be true though especially for the big western games

Very good comment and i agree, yep these sales are great and out sold other versions, it's to be expected when a new machine has far less choice, many of those came to other machines when there was plenty choice but still did OK. I wouldn't have expected otherwise for indie games, like i said it ain't saturated yet even if devs are complaining it is, look to other machines, now that's what you call a overdose, don't get me wrong the switch will get loads and i mean shed loads. Many will do great while others won't and that's the point i have been getting at

Got to say though your last comment was tops

I have already said many have sold but others ain't done great, tbh i expect indie games to do better on switch than many Japanese niche or many AAA 3rd party, the price is affordable for most ppl that don't have much money

I used fifa, Doom but i could have used others like Rayman, justdance, la Noire etc. I wasn't actually getting at indie, they always sell, even the vita with a small userbase does great with those, even out selling the same game on ps4.

So switch has a few hundred indie game and that's called saturated, hmm i don't think so

I ain't trying to argue, just that i don't agree that all the games are been gobbled up, simple as that really.

It would be great if all the games sold millions each or even hundreds of thousands indie games, but sadly that ain't happening, I can see that just by looking at mediacreate charts that are very reliable, shame we don't have charts like that for rest of the world, i know we have vgcharts and they are way better than they used to be but they are only a guideline

@JaxonH
No way is switch saturated with Indies, a few hundred don't mean saturated, when it gets 1k or more then yeah,

OK so doom, fifa must have sold millions then, now that would be something, no way have either got anywhere near 1mill

Spouting that switch has done better than wii u, not always MK8 are double switch numbers for same amount userbase

No it don't bother me if software sales are great or not but I know if a games successful or not, your delusional if you think doom fifa are a huge success, far from it, well they are on other machines but switch don't come close to them

Yep games do sell on new hardware very well but that don't mean every game will, just like many on the switch won't, look at some Japan only games, many didn't chart or sold very little, then again some have done fantastic, well mainly 1St party.

Switch saturated lol that's a good one, it's library is so small at moment

I know you didn't mean everyone in the world, goes without saying, to be fair i don't know anyone who wants one, it's only me that's got one.

It's certainly reaching when you compare switch sales to wii u, ain't no big shakes there.

Yep sales will always look good on a new machine that isn't oversaturated with games yet, that will change eventually, many games will get lost but also many won't

Doom is a fail, it don't even make it onto e-shop charts and disappeared from other charts, same with Fifa, I have seen sales figures for fifa in France they ain't special compared to 1 million userbase their but that must be a joke comparing to wii u right, you can't be serious surely

Like i said it was just a observation i noticed today when i was checking for cheap games, which there was many but not exactly cheap

Hmm not all games are been gobbled up, Doom and fifa ain't great sales compared to a userbase of 13 million ish. It's great to see switch doing well and a lot of software, especially indie games like this one

I made that particular comment, because a few months back you said everybody wants a switch and this new comment reminded me of it, both similar statements and both wrong, tell it to ps4 & xbox owners that have no interest in switch or its software, it's a whole lot more than ppl that actually own switch

I know you own other hardware like myself but your certainly a Nintendo fanboy that thinks switch is perfect in everyway, completely delusional, like many fanboys there is way too much sniffing nintendo's backside, the grass must be greener their. I own a switch and its just another piece of hardware to play games on, no big deal, just like any games machine.

Re: Nintendo Switch Is Seeing Record Sales In Both France And Italy

WhistleFish

Why all the salt

Does it matter if UK prefers Sony or Microsoft, afterall it's games we like that brings us altogether regardless of what hardware you own.

Just to throw this out there
Switch launch sales in Italy 45k and UK 80k, Greece 2k. Enough of the salt already.
These numbers were released by nintendo just after launch

Re: Bayonetta 2 On Switch Will Come With These Changes

@slaine
No problem

2nd one is worth a play if you haven't already played it but it still plays very similar to the first one though, for me it ain't worth a double dip
The only criticism i could make for both games is they are very repetitive but lots of fun

@MFD
Lol, I have had same discussion with him in the past
The only conclusion i came up with was to ignore his posts, don't bother mate because only his opinion counts which is irrelevant to me, leave ppl like that to suffocate in their self righteous bubble.

Anyways mate 3rd party AAA, AA and Indies do count, what would the switchtab be without them, Another machine with droughts, not everybody buys all the games Ninty make, oh should i say all the latest & greatest current gen games Ninty make that many of them ain't that great afterall

The dock is just a glorified stand

Well i look at the switch as a tablet with detachable controllers, even the chipsets are mobile orientated, there isn't anything home console about it, just because it can play on a TV using a very strange hdmi contraption doesn't make it a home console. It only needed a straightforward hdmi cable
The GPD XD does the same as switch but nobody calls that a home console
