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

[Nick Gars]

Not explicitly Switch related, but I always enjoy an opportunity to point and laugh at faggots who suck this companies dick so hard, their skull inverts:

I know its "I don't want to be sued" but it really reads as "I'm so sowy I infringed on the multi-billion dollar companies copyright". Nintendo didn't give a fuck about the Wii when it was the current console, I highly doubt they suddenly give a fuck now. If its already been posted, throw your clocks at me.

Yes, it was Metroid with good merchandising.

Explain to me what you're trying to get across with this nonsense statement.

 

[whatever I feel like]

Yes, it was Metroid with good merchandising.

If they were lucky, it was usually around 3 for the first release.

They’d max at 7 million before re-releases.
(Which is hardly bad, but it was rare.)

This chart is outdated, BotW is at 32 million now.

For as beloved as it is, I am shocked that Minish Cap is so low.

I'm surprised the much maligned Adventure of Link sold better. It was my first Zelda and one of my favorite Zelda games.

Just to confirm, you're posting this to laugh at it, not to agree with it, right?

BotW has a lower attach rate than OoT (and is a worse game, made by a bigger team, with a bigger budget, better marketing, and is less innovative/impressive, facing shoddy competition).

Same thing happened with Wind Waker, poor Toon Link can't catch a break (and he sucks in SSB).

I didn't watch it, what's it say? I'm hoping it's clickbait...

TLDW; nintendo is pledging support for DEI and the modern audience.

When asked "do you still care about diversity?," Doug Bowser gave a generic yes-type answer. Didn't even say DEI, just "diversity."

That's bad but the title and thumbnail are definitely clickbaity then, could've been worse.

He did mention DEI tho.
Full quote:
Interviewer: "Trump has been putting pressure on American companies to cut their diversity policies. Has Nintendo changed anything yet?"
Doug Bowser: "We always want to attract the best talent we can and retain that talent. We also believe that it’s important for those talents to be diverse from the point of view of their backgrounds, their experiences, and their understandings because our players are diverse. So we strive to have a diversity that reflects our players in our organization. This is something that has been in place for years, before people really started using the acronym DEI [diversity, equity and inclusion]. And it will continue to be in place. It’s important to us."

Are zoomers so stupid and poor they don't have PCs and have to rely on Wiis they scrounge at Goodwill for gaming?

Most Zoomers barely even know what a Wii is, zoomers were being born until 2012.

This is a millennial realizing that all the defensive case law on emulation and homebrew doesn’t apply if you use actual proprietary code in your product.

>they didn't know to just delete the ROM after 24 hours

ignorance of the law is no excuse

BotW has a lower attach rate than OoT

7.6 / 32.5 OoT
23.4%

32.8 / 145 BotW
22.4%

You got me, that 1% difference has changed my opinion completely.

I guess you could argue Wii sports is the best game ever made though lol

 

[Hermiöne Granger]

Doug Bowser confirms Nintendo will maintain their DEI policies, so we are getting more of this woke shit. Nintendo is fucking done!

Isn't Switch approaching 160m? Regardless, you're joking in on just one thing I said. BotW is nothing special, just a bad Zelda game that sold pretty well

Retard quote of the month. I don't think I've used Wii homebrew for anything other than illegally pirating video games but it is a pretty great platform for illegally pirating video games.

BotW is nothing special, just a bad Zelda game that sold pretty well

I take it back, retard quote of the month. How do you even come to this conclusion? There are several distinct styles for what constitutes an Zelda, as far as style #5 BotW is literally groundbreaking. As an open-world Ubisoft-formula-like it's extremely good execution on an extant formula, and its success is no accident.

The Virtual Boy definitely gets to much hate and I think if it had a chance to grow it could’ve been something great. Sadly we don’t live in that timeline.

No, it was trash even when it worked correctly. Not every failed console is a plucky underdog story waiting to happen - sometimes companies release bad products. And this is especially true of Nintendo in the mid-to-late 90s which went on a generational run of bad products due to their own complacency.

I feel like Nintendo fans of today suffer from an excessively rosy view of the company in the past. The rehabilitation of the Gamecube's reputation is probably the biggest example of this.
