It only works if the company was previously seen in a fairly neutral or positive light by the general public or its customers, because then it just humanizes the company a bit. It doesn't work for a shitty company like GS that everyone hates.

Gamestop's pretty alright for a scumbag Jew company, I might actuallly miss them when they innevitably bankrupt themselves.

>>387286746
Are you actually retarded? Retailers won't do artificial scarcity when the product in question are also being sold in a bunch of other stores. Unlike Nintendo, they only profit from the Switch units sold from their own store. If it becomes unavailable there, people will simply buy it elsewhere if they can find it. Gamestop wouldn't benifit from this "strategy" in the slightest. Try to think for half a second before you vomit shit next time.

Pathetic retards.

>>387288041
Nintendo has just as little to gain by purposefully not shipping their product to stores. They can't make money by not selling a product. People are stupid to believe in the artificial scarcity on either front.

>>387288521
It creates hype. People can buy a Switch and go "Wow, I actually managed to get one of these things! They're so rare!" and it being rare makes people want it more. That's the logic of artificial scarcity.
Toy companies have been doing it for ages.

Does no other guy do this? Shaking only does so much, either residual piss or leaky dick will end up with piss droplets in your pants. I'd rather tap with a wipe to be safe.

>>387288786
>he doesn't absorb
Also i just unironically just sit, easier than wiping.

>>387288786
>either residual piss or leaky dick will end up with piss droplets in your pants
Yes, and?

>>387288521
I have my doubts about the efficiency of the artificial scarcity strategy for producers like Nintendo as well. But the point I was making on my post is that, in the producer's case (and also for retailer with exclusive rights to a product), the practice has some logic behind it. Thinking a retailer with no exclusives rights to the product (like Gamestop) would do so is retarded.

>>387288786
Everyone who's not fucking disgusting does this.

There's no reason to believe that simply being hard to find would raise hype and make hundreds of thousands of otherwise disinterested people suddenly want it. Being unavailable only hurts sales and benefits competing products. It doesn't do much of anything to raise awareness.

I'm not a merchant.
It's all about pros end cons anon.
If you buy a game from steam it's cheaper, you can access it from any PC, online play is free and it only takes hard drive space.
Also, depending on the game, the discounts will save you the same amount of money you would get if you sold a used physical copy.

>>387289712

Why are people acting like it's not true that GS orders low quantities of new products because 90% of their profit is in massively upmarked used games and conning people into buying alien attack insurance and trash like that?

That's about products being advertised as being available only for a limited timeframe. That's a tactic that can raise impulse buys, but that's a completely different thing from making it so that people who want to buy your product are unable to.

Nintendo hasn't presented any messaging to suggest things like "If you don't buy it now, you can't get it later." All they've said is is the opposite, that they're increasing production so that they can raise its availability. Nobody has any reason to think that they're going to stop being sold any time soon.

>>387283118

this is supposed to be funny but its actually embarrassing

>>387292789
Ah but they still know that they have to "BUY NOW!!!!" if they see the Switch in stock. Scalpers play into this too. Nintendo does not really care who buys their product off the shelf. It makes no difference to them if it's the actual end user or just some Ebay reseller. They get paid either way.

I do it. I'm a clean freak. I make sure there's no urine anywhere on my dick, so I wipe it all up, even inside the foreskin. When I shit, I not only do conventional wiping, but I ram a little bit of toilet paper up my anus to get rid of any shit residue that might be close to the exit. I go through cycles of wiping and ramming, and once I get to the point where there's no hint of brown when I stick the paper up my bum, I'm good to go

You're going to give yourself a hemorrhoid eventually. You should try using wet wipes instead. Once you're to the point where you're decently clean, use one, then follow it up with regular TP to dry. It'll change your life. Only downside is that you can't flush them, and throwing poo tissue into the trash can weirds some people out if they've always lived somewhere with really good plumbing.

I had a severe depression years ago. I remember not cleaning my ass after crapping, not taking showers for at least a month or wash my mouth/brush my teeth for at least a month, too.

It was awful. Everything in my room smelled so bad.

Luckily, I managed to regress the depression to an okay level and now I have regular baths, wash my teeth at least once a day and always clean my ass with water and soap after using the toilet. It feels much better now and I feel like people aren't so repulsed by me. Except for the fact that I'm a neet and an autist. But that is fine.

Hey. Listen, man. You can heal yourself from depression, at least a little bit. Just talk to other people, open up to them.

It really helps and you will start to just let go and forget about depression. If you are afraid of talking to people, it's completely OK. Just find some alone time, away from people and just talk to yourself. That way you can be more open about your issues and work it out at your own pace. There is no rush, as long as you don't give up and get disappointed.

I believe in you. You can count on that. I know you can make it and be happy.

>>387292972
If Nintendo wants to make money, they need their consoles to be bought by people who are actually getting games. They barely break even selling consoles alone, so scalpers hoarding consoles hurts them more than it helps. It just makes it take longer for their consoles to reach their real customers, while also leaving them with less to spend on games.

Supply has been increasing steadily over the past few months. Setting up a new supply chain schedule takes time to show an effect on shipments, and Nintendo's initial sales estimates were set low because of their previous consoles underperforming and because of launching in March instead of the holidays.

There hasn't been any sign of Nintendo attempting to push a narrative that the Switch will be impossible to find if you don't buy it immediately. Asking customers to wait until they can provide more stock is the complete opposite. A console that's supposed to be supported for over five years being a limited item makes no sense, and failing to meet demand is only cutting into their potential profits. They could be reporting much higher sales numbers if their product was being produced more quickly.

It doesn't happen every time Nintendo releases a new console. 3DS and Wii U were pretty easy to find after launch. There haven't really been significant shortages of Nintendo's main consoles at launch besides the Wii and the Switch.

"We sold X units" doesn't mean a lot to most people. "We sold more than an equivalent product" is a little more telling, but still raises a lot of questions. If you can tell them "the sales way exceeded our expectations" or "we literally couldn't fill up the shelves fast enough" or "people were so desperate to get their hands on it they were willing to buy it marked up 10 times", that's persuasive.

Even if you assume all investors are perfectly rational and never fall for hype (they're not), the message you send your customers is much more important than the message you send investors.

>and in what universe does a business want less revenue
In order to lose revenue, they'd need a customer to simultaneously be hyped enough for the Switch to want to buy it at launch, while also caring so little about it that they can't be bothered to buy it if they have to wait for a restock. Maybe there's a few customers like that out there, but I have a hard time imagining that those sales are worth more than all the free exposure they get when the media reports on how popular the Switch is.

>>387298831

>>387291909
>>387299172
It's likely the bundled price just put on an empty Switch case for advertising interest. "Oh you guys have Switches?" then they tell them to pre-order their incoming system+game bundles.

>>387299831
They had the bundles on the wall behind the counter. This one was separate.

>>387299081
Actually, it's feline dicks that are barbed

Well, do you think there are a whole lot of customers who are disinterested enough in the Switch that they wouldn't buy it if it was readily available, but would drop $300 on one first chance they got if they thought it was rare?

I don't think Nintendo really gets that much media exposure to the general public based on the Switch being out of stock. Is it that big a deal outside of enthusiast media? Even if there was word like "The Switch can't be found in stores" going around everywhere, that seems more like it would discourage people from trying to find one. Very few people would be willing to go through the trouble of hunting one down unless they were determined from the start to get one, and if that was the case, they probably would have bought it without there needing to be a shortage.

With those enthusiasts, if they're determined to get one, they can generate sales eventually, but momentum is an important thing. It's better to sell more units more quickly. And how's Nintendo supposed to make sure that the enthusiasts are the ones waiting for more stock while those impulsive "only want it because it's scarce" buyers are able to find the rare units and generate sales?

>>387283835
Corporate entities are not actual humans. They are a bank account and a group of people whose job is to make them number in that account go as high as possible. People are already more than happy to believe the company whose products they enjoy is their friend, they don't need help believing that.

Social proof is extremely powerful in marketing. Just noting that a product seems to be popular among other people can really profoundly affect someone's attitude towards it. And usually people aren't even aware that they let it affect them, so it's even more powerful than direct marketing, where people realize they're being influenced and can choose to reject it.

no you're right anon, there's no possible benefit to getting people to visit the store more often, people always resist impulse buys and if they can't get what they came for they always walk right out. It's impossible for gamestop to have any kind of motive to not stock Switches how dare you.

I can confirm this. My brother is a "gamer" in the sense that he owns a PS4, and plays TF2 on his laptop, and he never fucking showers. Ever. When we take him places we have to tell him "if you don't shower, you aren't coming"

Sometimes he will go weeks without changing his clothes, and he is fat as fuck. He's 400 pounds and he actually smells like human feces. When you walk into his apartment, it smells terrible. The air chokes like something shit itself then died and turned into more rancid shit. This all started when he got social security for his """"""""""""""""""disability"""""""""""""""""" and started playing vidya instead of going outside.

My sister is a fatass that never showers or brushes her teeth or anything resembling hygiene. Half of her bed is covered in trash and unfinished food at all times.

He also does not ever brush his teeth. I don't believe he has brushed his teeth in the last ten years. When he smiles, you can see the physical buildup of plaque and old food that visibly protrudes from the surface of his teeth. It's absolutely fucking disgusting.

His bed is just a matress on the ground that is basically flat at this point. His pillow was white at one point, but it is now stained a dark brown color, as is the pillow case.

The worst part is that he gets mad if people say anything about his body odor. This one guy passed him in the store and just looked like he was about to throw up.

And then she'll be homeless because on top of being disgusting, she's a worthless human being who took an extra two years just to graduate from an online high school and can't be fucked to seriously look for employment.

There are people who need a wake up call, and there are people who will sleep through it.

Shouldn't the Switch attach rate be exploding then, if less Switch console sales translates to more Switch game sales?

You fucking faggots.

>>387305486
I think it's a completely reasonable that Gamestop would believe it is possible to gain something by withholding consoles and acting as if it isn't is the action of a deeply stupid person who corporations can easily manipulate to their own advantage.

>>387306526
There is a comment two replies up in this chain that gives you two other examples of ways in which Gamestop could gain from this that do not involve buying Switch games, are you really so stupid that you missed that?

And guys say vaginas are weird

>>387306889
That reply says that people not being able to buy the Switch would make them buy ARMS and Breath of the Wild. That last person seemed to agree that not selling the Switch would improve Gamestop's sales of Switch games. Is it really stupid to think that's strange? Seems more like not stocking the Switch would just make people check competing stores instead.

Even when the 360 launched prior we had people fucking yelling when I turned a light on in the back, getting registers ready. They started pounding on the fucking front windows like animals until the store was opened.

Just like every other board.

>>387307386
It says "I love Zelda and the game looks great I should get that too!"

None of that explains why Gamestop would not want to also sell a $300 Switch to this hypothetical impulsive customer who buys games for consoles they don't own. Or how it's likely that these strange customers make up a significant enough numbers that they would provide more benefit than the customers who would just take their business to a different store. Why would Gamestop want to build a reputation for being the only store at which you can not buy the new hit console?

>>387308056
Man, if there are really that many people with such a lack of impulse control that they just buy extra shit because they're in a store, I weep for the world.

If I'm going in for a Switch, then that's all I'm buying. I go in with a plan so I don't overspend.

>>387292584
oy vey

>>387308056
Why is it assumed that you don't find the Switch elsewhere? Why is it assumed that when you eventually find the Switch, it's at Gamestop and not a different store? Why is it assumed that you make repeated impulse purchases at Gamestop? Would you also be making impulsive purchases at every other store you check? It seems like you would run out of spending money very quickly. If you're that impulsive, why does Gamestop even need to use these secret tricks to get your money?

>>387308257
It's the basis of consumer capitalism at this point.

>>387305486
You do realise that pretending a product is in incredibly high demand because it's always out of stock is an incredibly common and well-known business tactic, right?

It shipped more than the Switch in March, but the sell-through to customers was about 90% overall. The shipment figures have since normalized.

Oh look, another thread ruined by a post that's not even that funny.

That's not even a difficult post to respond to. Outlets intentionally get low supply because it increases demand. That's basic economics, it's anti-consumer as fuck but it gets them business which we all know Gamestop is extremely desperate for these days.

Properly fixed.

>>387308617
Switch games are not constantly out of stock. It seems very illogical to think that people will buy more Switch games if they aren't able to buy a Switch. People seem to have a very strange view of how customers behave.

If word is spreading that the Switch is out of stock or if demand is rising, then Gamestop is only losing sales to other stores if they're not stocking them. Hoarding Switches would be shrinking their potential market.

>>387288786
I do.

It only works for Sonic because he was designed around being edgy (in the actual way, not in the Shadow way), and since there's been so many blunders in the series Sega can make fun of other people while also making fun of themselves.

It's not an excuse to make fun of your customers like what all of these other companies are doing. Wendy's is just a restaurant, not a fucking game mascot

Aren't Nintendo competing with fucking Apple for the components for the Switch? No wonder they can't get any in stock

The Switch isn't artificially scarce, it's actually scarce because of the NAND shortage that's effecting basically everyone but Apple.
