That's the keyword here.
When you have to isolate something to make it seem impressive you know it's not.

I mean right now the PS4 is outselling the Switch on a monthly basis.

Are you people so desperate to try and justify your Switch purchases?

and they still got no units available for the masses and have to do a lottery for the few systems they get in stock

How would you feel if you were a brainwashed drone who is absolutely obligated to buy garbage year after year? Just think about it, these are the people who gave $500+ for a gaming console that LITERALLY has no games. Like, this isn't a Playstation tier meme created out of sheer butthurt, it's only game. Zelda, is not only a rehash of a rehash of a rehash, it's also on another platform AND can be emulated on a PC. I would be furious if I bought something like that. Of course, I wouldn't buy it, because I'm not mentally challenged.

I can't consider casual games, esports, cinematic experiences, and ports to be worth a purchase. Otherwise I'd be singing the praises of the Ps4 and Xbox right now. You know? And really, these threads constantly remind me of Ps4 sales threads, and those were filled with obnoxious neogaf marketers.

>did anyone ever even think the switch would fail?

The first 5 months were almost nothing but Nintendoomed threads here with everyone swearing up and down that this was the second coming of the wiiU. People even spammed those videos of the few defective consoles and tried to make it look like it was a RRoD-level epidemic, when the opposite was obviously true.

And yes, the fact that 99% of all Switch hate was just here on /v/ should have been telling of how well this thing was going to do.

Not that impressive when the shipment is shit. The worldwide sales are still behind the PS4.

I still don't understand why.
Personally< I don't see enough reason to go after switch.
It has like 2-3 nice games and that's it.
No 3d party support.
Maybe it is japanese people who have different view on things and think that it is justified to purchase console for 1 game, but I am not sure.
If you look at the old days of PS2 then you would see it had great lineup of Good quality games. And with Switch I just don't see it.

Knack 2 this week. You'll be sorry when it comes out...

I love my PS4, no doubt, but the Switch is just an amazing console. It's really all I want to play at this point. I can't put the damn thing down.

Congrats to Nintendo for their success. Can't wait for the new Mario game.

>I still don't understand why.
Nintendo consoles and games are the literal definition of casual normalfag consoles in Japan, the 3DS was pretty much the equivalent of having a phone to play vidya with.
It's the equivalent of people playing candy crush or whatever phone shovelware in the west, hell one of the top sellers on the 3DS was Puzzle and Dragons, a literal mobile shovelware kusoge.

>Thinking Nintendo will have meaningful JP third party support after three generations straight of blunders
People buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games and the rare IPs that are still on Nintendo consoles like Dragon Quest, all the significant third party support, mainstream or niche, is on Sony's hands, and now that Japan is slowly dipping in the PC market it's even worse for Nintendo to get anything out of third parties unless they grovel at their feet like they did with the gamecube.

Sorry to break your nuts guy, but Japan is LITERALLY, irrelevant when it comes to console sales. The 360 sold over 80% of its total life time sales in the US of A (God Bless) alone, and it completely bombed in Japan along with Europe. This is a well known fact, that no one outside the US of A, wanted the 360.

Now that the 360, Wii and PS3 are last gen, we can all safely say that PS3 > 360 > Wii when it came to their life time sales, since the Wii was dropped early, and was already selling badly after 4 years. Basically, the 360 out sold the Wii despite the Wii having a huge start out the gate. The truth of the matter is, If you don't win AMERICA (praise Jesus), then you lose, End Of Story.
