Nintendo Switch (Currently Plagued) - Here we shit post about the new Nintendo console, The Switch

[AnsemSoD1]

After the fall in price of course.

Same with the PS3, and potentially the same with the Switch 2.

I still think you guys are just forgetting how fanboyism and consumerism have only grown over the years while social media and streaming has also increased.
I think believing the Switch 2 will fail is the biggest copium.

I can't find the page where it says the majority of games will be download-only. Do you have a link? If it was in the direct, I must have missed it because I was skipping around.

It's okay when you go to buy the physical version the box will shame you with this disclaimer clearly stating "THIS ISNT THE GAME RETARD WE DONT KNOW WHY YOU'RE PAYING EXTRA FOR THIS EITHER"

For those complaining about the cost of new games. Prices aren't reaching new highs. Your parents paid the equivalent of 110 dollars today to buy you a copy of Turok.

Rising prices aren't a good thing. But the gaming market is still cheaper today than it was in the 90s and early 00s.

 

[Jace on ice]

Imagine paying $450 and $80 a game for slightly worse than PS4 specs. Dude lmao.

I don't really get people saying shit is predatory and/or greedy. It seems like they're taking shit really personally, or believe there's a conspiracy against them. The only conspiracy is that games are escalating rapidly in cost, and the market is driving this.

Who is the predator? The one that is selling expensive toys? Who is the prey? I don't see the greed either, I guess they cost what they cost, sometimes they'll be on sale, or they'll do the voucher thing again, I dunno. You are poor in America if you can't afford a budget smartphone/laptop tier purchase once a decade, and you are retarded or antisocial if you can't find some way to play Nintendo games you want at a discount or by sharing.

It's a hobby where you are generally buying new shit and playing it and throwing it away when you lose interest. Inflation happened, the budgets are all higher, the computer looks nicer than the last one, I dunno, the math adds up.

The Wii U says hello, as do the base 3DS and PS3.

My issue isn't the price of the console but the games. They might drop the price of the Switch 2, but as far as I know, the standard MSRP of games have never gone down due to customer backlash, at least not in the last 2-3 decades.

I hope japan gets taken over by the chinese.

NULL IS HEBREW FOR CUCK THE CHUDS!

That's mostly because the standard MSRP holds for approximately 3 months to a year before bottoming out.

My mother rented N64 games for me and my brothers, actually.

>No paid online services
>No game subscription services
>The companies werent making millions scraping data and selling it everywhere
>No ads
>All physical copies
>Booming used game market, had to rely on initial sales

Considering all the small ways these companies try to extract value from the user now, I would venture to say that there isnt a single digital game worth more than $40. $60 physical with the full game on the disc and playable without ever connecting to the internet.

I don't give a shit, we don't fucking live in the 80's. I'm not going to eat the slop before the slaughter like a good piggy because it was the custom four decades ago.

Nintendo relocated to Isreal and took Blackrock money.

 

[LifeAlert]

blowing cripples is at least better than a tranny nigger faggot feminist game.

Oh how quickly we forget:

"At Nintendo, dedication has always meant going beyond the games to promote a sense of community, and to share a spirit of fun and joy. We are committed to advancing our longtime company values of fun and entertainment for everyone. We pledge that if we create a next installment in the Tomodachi series, we will strive to design a game-play experience from the ground up that is more inclusive, and better represents all players."

I would like to point out if people on this site are dick riding Nintendo and saying all the other shit they are doing besides raising prices isn't actually bad than imagine what the average retard thinks.

Nintendo is notorious for not dropping the price of their games. They were selling Brawl for the Wii brand new for $40 bucks in every Gamestop that still had it near my area and this was years into the Wii U's life.

Same. But I did own a select few games. Usually Christmas and birthday presents. I'm just saying that this is nothing the market hasn't seen before and if games sold for an ostensibly higher value back then there's no reason to believe Nintendo won't be raking in money hand over fist even at 80 bucks a pop.

Are you new to Nintendo products? These fuckers have been known to raise prices on games half a decade after release, lowering prices is not how they do business.

 

[6MillionCoofs]

Yeah with all their ‘if you upgrade a Switch 1 game to a Switch 2 game it won’t work on Switch 1’. I expected the Physical Enhanced Edition to come with the update already on the cart.

Or it does and the box just makes that real unclear.
