>>377547251
No, this is different.
ARMS goes directly against the core design feature of the switch, playing on the go and undocked.
What nigga is going to set up their switch out in public or on break and start punching with the joycons? Sure you can play with the cons attached but that's going to be a shitty gaming experience on the go.
The only people who are going to buy this are people who want to get in to it competitively and those who will buy anything Nintendo shits out.

Arms is literally "let's just apply the Splatoon formula to another genre, surely it we'll sell just as well!"
Its not going to match Splatoons sales like Nintendo thinks it will. They're going to get burned and not make any other new first party IPs besides some eshop titles for the rest of the gen.

Its everywhere in canada when compared to the rest of the civilized world. Have you ever compared what you pay for products to what other countries pay in terms of % of your take home pay? Even in the prairie provinces where everything is cheapest Canadians pay more than americans for goods, they make less money after taxes, and then they pay more money on top of it.

Amazon, Best Buy and EB which are basically the top video game hardware online retailers in leaf land have been sold out consistently since launch. The plain Switch was up on Amazon for maybe a few hours last week and that was it.

Face it: it's a success. 3rd parties are going to flock to it now. I don't want one yet but I'm glad it will be good one day instead of rotting like the Wii U.

So let me ask you this, /v/? Do sales make a product good? because I keep hearing contradictions, and I'm hoping they're from different people, because if the same people hold these opinions, it just pisses me off because they're purposely being contrarian, or they're moving goalposts at the speed of light so that their double outlook doesn't collapse.

I don't as many people are using it like you think. I know I'm not carrying my switch around with me like I do any other portable.

The undocking feature just makes it great for carrying around the house. If I feel like playing in the living room, I can pop it out and take it there. And in these scenarios, I'm fine with setting it up for an ARMS environment.

Those are more than likely display boxes. When a product is out of stock it creates what is called a, "hole." Managers and store directors don't like these holes, because it looks unappealing to customers, so they fill them with whatever.

My problem is that it's another esport. I hate esports in general, as they've ruined the industry by turning everything into the next street fighter or call of duty.
