I hope the Nintendo Switch 2 fails really hard!!!

Dude I just ran the numbers for a work project, and our cost per unit went from $9 to $35, making it completely untenable. If these tariffs don't get changed soon a lot of things are gonna be insanely expensive.
Cooler Master saying "our 95 dollar case will be become an 180 dollar one" and proceeding to break down everything going into it in that Gamers Nexus video really brought it home for me. Everyone, I'm being very real when I say these things: if you have a car, inspect it for immediate and long term maintenance, job hopping? Say goodbye, use that tenure as a negotiation unit. Don't make big moves and hold onto every dollar you possibly can. My backlog for the next couple years might end up cleared... Just saying
 
Switch 2 is already a success due to Nintendogs unfortunately but reasonable gamers must continue the boycott. 😜🤝🏼
(This time some families could also abandon the 3 kids/3 switch policy...)

Abandoning your kids does indeed proportionally solve the issue.
 
The price is fine. And it's not like you guys have not had eight years to save your pennies for this thing. Plus if you have it another eight years it's mega value.
 
It's going to sell 30m units in the homeland alone, so you're huffing on pure hopium if you want this thing to fail.

Personally can't wait to get my hands on one,
 
Sega Saturn and Dreamcast were a flop, N64, although highly outnumbered by PS1, wasn't.

The N64 sure felt like a flop at the time. Most of the kids I knew had a PS1 and I remember hearing about all these awesome 3rd party games that I missed out on because I only had an N64.
 
I hope he realizes that no company doesn't go for the bucks, and especially in gaming that bets are high, Nintendo is just one of them all

...all
 
Am I the only who starts noticing how the market react to The S2?
I mean TESO, E33, Doom The Dark Ages has some retro features just to name a few.
The Last of Us show, Fallout show and the new rumored remake and another completely new.
Half Life 3 is playable.
Capcom is killing it with their lineup.
Konami on listening mode.
Shadow dropping is the new E3. All these blessings are happening for a reason.

Yups, we got non-profit organisations, and exactly opposite of that- companies, aka organisations that priotize making profit :)
 
Mario Kart is well and truely worth every penny. I'm not saying it's the greatest game in the world but the hours spent for the average user equates to probably 0.2$ per hour or something ridiculously low.

And even those has some here and there corrupts that stole the money, and argue that was "the price of work" or whatever, but that's a whole other conversation
 
How is OP doing?

But just wait guys! This could still be a Wii U situation after it sells tens of millions! There's still time! :messenger_tears_of_joy:
Its not the same as WiiU, but it could always fail to meet Nintendo's expectations, just as the Xbox failed to meet Microsoft's. Is it highly unlikely? Yes, but it's still a possibility.

Key word is: Expectations

What are their expectations? Or are we going to make it up to suit whatever sales narrative we want?

GAF already preparing for it... as you can see being the best selling console launch ever wont be enough. "but but they had supply, Sony didn't" "but that's just hardcore wait for casuals to reject it" etc

So far.....solidly built system, but game launch lineup sucks. (two new games).

Game key cards suck. Storage size sucks. Battery life sucks. Eshop still full of hentai and shovelware slop.

We dont know, but it can happen, just that, no hating or making up narratives, they were pretty happy with the initial sales but still, a possibility that final sales might not meet expectation can happen ( and this servers for every product made in the world ) unlikely ? Yes, but it can happen.

At least this time we have an actual exclusive game. The Switch launch was a Wii-U game and ports.
Yeah sucked for us Wii U owners. We didn't even get a $10 Welcome Tour to mess around with. Just a game we already bought and a game we didn't have to buy a Switch for.

OK there was ZombiU. Ubi threw us a small bone.

Funny how a bait thread like this can go on and on. Yet a thread about Nintendo selling around 200k Switch units in France at launch is shut down. What a shocker.
 
Saving this for Christmas 😂😂
Imagine kids this holiday trying to get their parents to buy the Switch 2.

Johnny: "Mom I want a Switch 2, Mario kart, and another game"

Mom: "Ok, Johnny! How much is it?"

Johnny: "The Mario Kart bundle is only $500, My other game is $80, my memory card is $60, and my pro controller is $80."

Mom: " Johnny have you lost your fucking mind? If your good Santa will bring you something"

Johnny : "OK mom, I will be a good boy"

Mom: (shopping with Dad for Johnny's Xmas present and staring a switch 1 and 2) "Hubby look, the switch 1 is much cheaper and looks pretty much the same. Also their Mario Kart Deluxe is $30 cheaper"

Johnny: butthurt on Xmas day
