The future Nintendo sales threads are sure gonna be very interesting to read.
Its because their fanbase cultism and .... condition
Nintendo is definitely the No. 1 go to for couch play with friends, kids and families. Unless that place hasn't been taken from other platforms, The switch will still sell. Imagine if halo infinite support couch play, that could literally bring kids into the system.Got kids? When it's one of your weekend funs with the kids together, there is no price for that. I got the Mario Kart bundle preordered and did that without blinking.
For any other console or PC, I never buy anything full priced. I'd rather wait for 2 years to get the game -75% and fully patched.
For Nintendo games that I play with the kids, I just accept the cost and buy.
He is probably right unfortunately but i would laugh my ass off if parents around the world decide that nintendo price point is now too high and that little timmy can continue to play with switch 1.
That's funny, tell another one.Imagine if halo infinite support couch play, that could literally bring kids into the system.

ahaha no psp 10 times sells all portables pcNintendo never had the competition in the portable space they have today
Exactly this, my son and his friend are already hyped for the new Mario kart since i told him i preordered.Got kids? When it's one of your weekend funs with the kids together, there is no price for that. I got the Mario Kart bundle preordered and did that without blinking.

You could try reading it again slowly.There is nothing you wrote here that made any sense and I'm struggling to see whether you're out here trolling or if you actually believe the tripe you just wrote.
Yup!I think the Switch was perfectly priced that it made sense as a birthday/christmas/elementary school/middle school graduation present. The games were cheap enough that it made sense to buy these for birthday and Christmas.
The movie Train to Busan makes a joke that the dad buys his daughter a switch for her birthday, but bought her one for her birthday the year before and forgot.
If you had two or three kids, you could easily buy each one of them a switch.
If you were doing a company raffle, you could easily have a Switch as a prize, maybe even two.
I think a lot of that goes away here. If someone has to think twice about buying one on a whim, I think you lose a lot of sales as a result.
Unstable 30 fps that gets progressively worse the more allies you unlock and bring with you (or everytime you used certain ablities) is hardly what i would call perfect.That's funny, tell another one.
You brought up another great point. Nintendo games almost never get day pne patches. Almost. And the version you are playing is ready to go. TotK was perfect launch day.
Did the game crash? for what it was, it was perfect. The graphics limitations coming from the hardware are hardly something most people will care or notice but the most enthusiast.Unstable 30 fps that gets progressively worse the more allies you unlock and bring with you (or everytime you used certain ablities) is hardly what i would call perfect.
Games not crashing hardly traduce into being perfect, majority of games don't crash, especially on console where it's harder to have something wrong on a system level.Did the game crash? for what it was, it was perfect.

Me neither. Haven't paid full price in a long time. Exceptions are Ragnarok, Astro Bot and KCD2. I wait a couple of months.One of the reasons why PC gaming will always be GOAT.
So much choice where to buy games, i havent payed full price for a new game in years thanks to PC gaming.
Their tutorial is the new gaas.no woke gaas crud or glitchy games
This is definitely a factor. Buying a kid $300 switch or a $200 lite (even better) was an easy gift and proposition. Buying a kid a $500 console that could easily be dropped, isn't going to sell units.I think the Switch was perfectly priced that it made sense as a birthday/christmas/elementary school/middle school graduation present.

He is rightShawn Layden: "Taco Bell can charge whatever it wants. In the end, I'm going to continue eating it."
DK64 cost something like £80 and this was back in the late 90s. Granted it was with a mandatory pak but still.Well they didn't for GameCube, Nintendo 64, Virtua Boy or Wii U. I guess we'll see.
no one is stupid enough to bet against it, right? Thing is going to sell a lot and the price hike for the games won't affect them one bit because they have their fanbase trained to pay whatever the hell Nintendo wantsThe future Nintendo sales threads are sure gonna be very interesting to read.
I fully expect prices to go up across the entire industry, like many others here. I'm sure Nintendo will remain profitable, however it's gonna be interesting to see how many units they sell, what the profit margins really are, and how their revenue develops, especially time aligned with the predecessor to their console.no one is stupid enough to bet against it, right?

Now, if the rest of the industry tries to copy them, we're screwed![]()

I wonder what condition you could possibly be refering to. Back to your obsession again are you?Its because their fanbase cultism and .... condition

Not apples with apples. Comparing the Switch 2 with the original model is not fair. The Switch 2 is $100 above the Switch OLED at launch. Which sounds like a pretty good deal to me. And that is not even taking inflation into account.Economy is in the shitter. Games are expensive. Console is $150 more.
Not sure what the confusion is
In three years, Steam Deck, Asus Rog Ally, Lenovo Go, and MSI Claw combined are estimated to have sold around 6 million units.Nintendo never had the competition in the portable space they have today so... I would hold my breath before claiming anything...
The worst part is, he's right.

The true diehard fans will pay. The people who are on hard times and such im not sure if they will at the same rates and when they do who knows if they will trade it in and sell it when they come on hard times or lose interest. I will not be buying a ton of games with those prices. If i was a parent i would just get my kids a ps5 since its cheaper. I could probably get 2 ps5 and the kids could share the same games and play gta 6 together more easily.I mean a percentage of people will certainly buy less games, or wait for a sale (and may lose interest), etc.
"People will still pay" is just a bit too simplified.
I am not saying it's going to be an unsuccessful strategy because they can sell a little less and make more profit, but it's still a calculated risk.
I guess we'll find out, huh? I'm sure it'll sell millions. But will you sell what the previous games sold?
Not wanting to start a platform war, but:
PS4 cost 299 at launch and had alot of exclusives relatively early, and sold well.
PS5 cost 699 at launch, and was pioneering upping game prices to 70 bucks.
It is among the most sold systems, despite having no real exclusives in the first many years, and were more expensive compared to previous generation.
If Sony can pull that, then it is 100 percent certain that the majority of Nintendo players will follow Nintendo in their ways.
Got any source that states Nintendo players are usually a younger audience compared to other platforms, or is it just stereotypical?This is something that'll be interesting to watch, because many of Nintendo's players are younger. So can they or their parents afford it? I'm rooting for Nintendo here.

According to this, the majority of players are 20 to 30, which then makes a decline.
The list probably looks around the same for playstation 5, although I really couldn't find something to compare with, so unless my Google skills are bad, Sony doesn't really tell us demographic group by age.
But I would guess it's lower thanks to games like GTA and CoD, which is not available on the Switch.
It's cause their games are so damn good.Its because their fanbase cultism and .... condition
