Re: Deals: Nintendo Switch - Upcoming Goodies For May And June

That is one embarrassing lineup.

And lmao at Minecraft's price. That game launched for 30 bucks on Playstation systems and you can score it for 5-10 bucks now.

The Switch fanboys will probably argue that it's fair priced though, because they convince theirselves that the Switch delivers such a unique experience that it automatically makes every game for any price worth the money.

Re: SuperData Says Nintendo Sold 2.4 Million Switch Consoles Worldwide in March

@G-Boy Exactly the same as yesterday. The upcoming months will tell us if the Switch can keep its momentum going and I don't think it can, based on the lineup and lack of quantity. 2.4 mil is decent, but you can solely thank Zelda for that. There's literally nothing else on the horizon that people will buy a Switch for, aside from the upcoming Mario game. Casuals have their phones and tablets, the mass of PS4/PC/One gamers aren't going to buy an inferior system with crappy 3rd party support and the Nintendo fanboys have purchased it already. Especially the lack of interest by casuals is why this system isn't going to do well. We aren't living in the Wii era anymore. The casuals were the reason Wii was a success (Wii Sports and Wii Fit). They are gone this time.

My prediction is that Switch will suffer in the next 6-7 months and that Mario will give it a decent boost again during the holidays. 5 - 5.5 mil by the end of the year.

Re: The Switch Is The Fastest-Selling Video Game System In Nintendo History

This doesn't mean squat. The system has been purchased by all Nintendo fanboys now. The real challenge lies in the upcoming months, because they have to attract the casual crowd and gamers who play on other platforms. Looking at the droughts and upcoming games this year, I'm conviced that they can't make that happen. Ergo sales will plummet.

Re: Feature: The Big Nintendo Direct Summary - 12th April

Yasume

It was almost insultingly bad for Switch owners.

A 4-year old PC game that the Switch probably can't even run properly
An overpriced arcade collection
2 niche japanese games that only the otaku crowd cares for
Some crappy indie games

E3 better be amazing for Switch, otherwise it won't even survive 2019. It's all or nothing.

Re: Payday 2 Announced For Nintendo Switch

Yasume

Lmao it's baffling that some of you can get excited over a 4-year old PC game. This also seems like a desperate attempt to get some 3rd party games on the Switch. Similar to the Borderlands 2 situation on Vita. Wouldn't be surprised when this turns out to run just as poorly as that game did.
