:story:
I think the $80 price tag is really dumb but Jesus Fuck these faggots on Twitter and YouTube trying to whip people up into a frenzy over it and other Switch 2 information/misinformation are insane, like the dude that posted the Trump Assassination meme over the belief that Tariffs had anything to do with it, the modern internet is a fucking disease, I really don't understand what happened to just don't buy it, I mean sure missing out on Nintendo games sucks but virtually everything else is released on PC nowadays anyway
 
Give me all the clocks if this has already been posted, but Tom's Guide is reporting that their inside source regarding Nintendo is placing the pre-order date in Canada at April 23rd. They are also expecting the US pre-order date to follow shortly.

im hoping for better availability then what Sony and MS had in 2020/2021 in the first few months but I doubt it
 
Especially strange when the pricing of the console makes sense for what it can do
Is an 11-year-old outdated hardware assembled in the cheapest industry plant in Cambodia worth 450 dollars now?

Jewtendo is selling this shit at a profit margin in Japan for 300 bucks. This plastic toy is probably 100 bucks a pop to produce. People have no idea how tech costs nowadays.
 
Nintendo really had to rebuild their reputation when the 3DS first launched, we will see if history repeats itself

Thats why I'm holding off. Seems like a 3DS situation in the making. Also, there's only like 2 games and you have to wait a month to get DK.
Give me the late adopter discount Flopakawa

Same here, I'm also hoping for a jailbreak as soon as possible.
Perhaps they'll even do another "Ambassador Program" for all early adopters. Imagine paying hundreds of dollars more just to get a bunch of free nes and gba games
 
If you're wondering how long china magnets last, go look at your parent's fridge.


 
Its amazing, Nintendo is on a speedrun to destroy the good reputation they earned with the Switch 1.
They didn't so much build a reputation but get absolutely massive amount of journo dick sucking, never seen before in the history of gaming.

Games like Zelda botw are only fun until half of the way through.
Mario Odyssey was shit.
Mario Maker was just letting autists do what they've done for decades, only they need to pay for it.
Smash was solely carried by having a huge cast, and is entirely the same as previous entries.

All those games were treated as second coming of christ rather than the mediocre games they actually were.
 
I’ve been watching the Mario Kart World Direct and people are still bombarding the Live Chat section with the usual “drop the price” mantra.

Yeah, people really aren’t happy about the price hikes these games are getting.
 
Mario Odyssey was shit.
This is an insane statement, even assuming hyperbole. It's one of the best in the genre, top 5 easily.

Smash was solely carried by having a huge cast, and is entirely the same as previous entries.
They really do need to spice it up a bit, it feels like they haven't done anything but tweak Melee with each iteration, aside from adding Final Smash attacks. It's basically like if they improved the graphics with each Street Fighter 2 update. Still an awesome series though, not at all mediocre.

Fixed

I will stand by 64, Melee and Brawl all being their own thing even if they built upon each other in many ways. The series really didn't stagnate till Wii U and 3DS, where they started stripping the series down to the bare essentials of big roster and stage count.
