Are you ready to admit the switch is a success? Mario odyssesy

I haven't played a Nintendo since the 90s.

Nice source

>>389455114
I guess that's BotW, what's the other game?

>>389455220
You're missing out big time then. It's time to go back.

Are we ignoring the fact the ps4 is over 3 years old?

>>389455282
This. Switch might be selling a lot, but at this rate, Nintendo will need 20 years to overpass PS4 sells

*Japan only sales

>>389455114
Switch is the PUGB of consoles

>>389455282
3 years in the PS3 had a fantastic library and it kept selling gangbusters.

>>3894553862
The reality is that it's already sold well over 5 millions in only half a year, without a holiday season and without even proper restocking, so think again.

>>389455114
these are numbers taking directly from a shit-tier english site.. that got it from here:

these are figures are for japan only.

> op
> being this pathetic

I'm happy for them, but I'd like to see some games before I get one myself. Same thing I'm waiting for, for a 3DS... Just waiting for some games that aren't total shovelware.

I want a hardware revision and a price drop. I'm not paying $300 for a Nvidia shield with a fan and a additional $70 for a normal controller just to play 3 games. The Switch should be $150 tops in its current state.

>>389456013
I don't d isagree. I'd like to see a model with fixed joycons attached to it (or proper controls I guess). Would be cool. Could still dock it but it would come with just the system itself, and you'd have to buy the dock separately.

>>389456013
It ain't gonna happen anytime soon, so your loss.

>>389456237
A handheld only SKU will eventually happen for sure, but:
>fixed joycons
Why the fuck would you ever do that?

>>389456013
Nintendo's selling Switches for about as much as it costs to make them. A price drop like that isn't going to happen unless the production cost is lowered dramatically.

That's the most british smile i've ever seen.

So it's fucking nothing?

>>389455114
What the fuck do you even do with a face like that.

>>389456320
because I hate how tiny joycons are. It's a pretty big contributor (outside of the lack of games I care about) that's stopped me from getting one. I tried it more than a few times at best buy demo kiosks pre-release, and a friend has one and I can't get over how tiny they are. An entire joycon is about from the base of my palm to the first knuckle of my middle finger. I get severe hand cramps when I play more than like a half hour with one.

>>389455569

Is this supposed to impress me? PS4 is still a better seller.

>>389455114
Couldn't you have chosen a more flattering picture? Am I to believe all Switch users are indicative of that?

>>389456452
Even if they lower the production costs, as long as it keeps selling they won't drop the price.

>>389456564
First of all, fixing them would definitely not make them any bigger. And secondly how the hell are you holding the damn thing, dude? They may be small, but they work perfectly fine. The buttons are literally the same size as the 3DS ones, and the grip is a lot bigger than even an XL.

>>389455114
>Japan

lol they are like the size of a state, irrelevant

I'm just happy it's doing well enough.
I don't want Switch to be the most popular console ever, I just want it to not flop so that they keep a nice flow of releases going.
Just the fact that there's so much positivity surrounding the Switch makes me happy

>>389456823
>fixing them would not make them any bigger
it would allow for proper spacing of the buttons, actually. It would be bigger in effect.
And I'm trying to hold them the way they're held in pretty much every promo shot, and how it says to hold them vertically in the manual
I won't even get started on trying to use it horizontally cause good lord if you have a joycon with a screenshot button just say goodbye to your ears cause you'll hear that fucking clicking nonstop.

I don't know what are you talking about, but no, it wouldn't. It'd be the same just without the ability to swap controllers.

>trying to hold them the way they're held in pretty much every promo shot, and how it says to hold them vertically in the manual
Wait a minute, are you by any chance holding them separately or something? You hold it just like you'd hold any other handheld ever when they're docked in the handheld, or you hold them like any other controller ever when in controller form, just that.

>>389457495
I am, half the appeal is them being able to snap off, but they're not exactly comfortable. I haven't used the grip, but I did try a pro controller. It was nice, but not $80 nice. Felt like a $20 logitech controller.

Now post the rest of the world.

>>389457626
Then dock the strap thing which makes them wider. Or just use the grip, which turns them into a proper controller.

>>389457680
in gaming terms, japan might as well be the world

It's to show that the PS4 is still leaps and bounds in sales weekly than the switch.

The switch hasn't even been out a year, and it can't beat a 3 year old console.

>>389455494
Massively popular, enjoyed by many and pretty accessible, despite harbouring many of the industry's worst features?

Sounds about right.

>>389459314
Switch was reported as the top seller in July, yeah. August's report isn't out yet, but it's coming soon.

>>389458473
How does any of that translate to failure

>>389459224

As a switch owner, I am happy at the very least that they found early success and it seems like it is at a more healthy place then the Wii U was.

However, I think it will be short lived and in the long run will start to drop off once some of the droughts start to happen and stock becomes more common. I don't think it will bomb like the Wii U did and will probably do better then the N64 and GCN, but I don't see it going much higher then that without some new revisions and price adjustments, as well as fixing some of the major issues the hardware has both software and design-wise.

Switch owner here, stop buying 3DS and 3DS games!!! Holy shit!!! Where are my Switch games???!!! Why is 3DS getting games in 2018??? I'm crying right now...

>>389455220
Play some games, man. You will rediscover fun.
