It still baffles me why the consoles is a huge success. Unlike the wii, it has no redeeming interesting gimmick

>portable system

I doubt that the majority of people actually use the portable functionality outside their houses. Which makes switch portability as useful as wii u was.

It is a weaker system, it barely runs its games better than the wii u.
The software was amazing so far, but that shouldn't be enough considering how previous system with just as good, if not better launch failed.
Is this industry so dried up, are people so tired of the current western market that they jumped into the switch ship just to get something more refreshing, something that only nintendo offers?

You fucker don't understand japanese markets. They don't have time for consoles, since they're busy working/studying so they go home only to sleep or eat. Portable system is just the thing that they needed.
>>
>>389475712
I don't see how people wouldn't want the ability to swap seamlessly between handheld and console, not unless you just literally never leave the house.
I take my switch with me over to my family's place when I'm not playing at home. Super easy, doesn't require save backups or lugging around a huge brick.

It's honestly the best thing i think could have happened to the gaming industry, and I hope every home console goes this route seeing as consoles are being rendered useless thanks to PC. Being able to take your game away from being stationed is a huge plus and why the console is a massive success. Just gotta look at it from a perspective other than your own where you only play vidya at home. Not everyone's a shut-in.

Nintendo should really flex their muscles and just take the Pokemon IP back from them and have Intelligent Systems, Monolith Soft, HAL Labs or even Genius Sorority make the games that they can actually use it to properly support their systems rather then wait for TPC and Gamefreak to be "ready" to support the system.

I think Gamefreak and TPC are really starting to take the piss like launching B2/W2 on DS after the launch of the 3DS. Launching Tembo only on non-Nintendo systems etc.

>>389475712
The Switch is a success mainly because Nintendo has been clever with how they had designed it and have been marketing it. It's a portable home console that is centered around local multiplayer. It is not a true handheld so it's not competeting against smartphones but since it is primarily used as gaming, it fulfills a functionality that smartphones can't, actual video games and controllers. And on the home console front, it's unique portable nature is something other home consoles can't emulate just yet, not to mention whereas other consoles are forsaking local play for online, the split Joycon feature let's it corner said forsaken local play market. The Switch unironcially does what the other consoles don't. It's filling in the gap left wide open by smartphones and other consoles.

>just as good launch software as Switch
>>
I don't really entirely understand why the Switch is succeeding either. By all accounts it's just another Wii U. Same underperforming hardware, same crappy online, same lack of third parties, same poor release schedule, same lame gimmicks. Along with a host of other problems like poor battery life, paid online, high rate of defects (at least at launch). Nintendo haven't managed to convince me they're improving at all.

The only real difference I think is that this time they actually marketed it properly so that people knew what it was, and it had a strong launch title to move systems with. That's really it. Just goes to show how big the influence of effective marketing really is.

My problem with the switch is the games. It's been 6 months and the only game I'd get for it is BotW...still. I guess I could get Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon, but those wouldn't really excite me too much because I already played MK8 on Wii U, and Splatoon 2 only mildly interests me.

Why can't they put that 3DS metroid game on there? It could actually have good graphics instead of looking like a grimy, jaggy piece of trash. Also, maybe port OoT and Majora 3DS so those can have a graphical upgrade as well? I might consider buying a switch at that point.

Switch's success is nowhere near comparable to Wii's, only in Japan perhaps, universally it keeps getting beaten by PS4

It's still doing extremely better than WiiU and will render a profit I can tell you
>>
>>389475064
Never underestimate the autism of nintendo toddlers.
>>
>>389475712
Because Nintendo learned a lot from the Wii U.
Yes it failed, but they watched very closely the people that used the console, what features they liked and didn't like.

They threw Async Multiplayer out of the window soon after launch. But they then realised people loved the off-tv play feature of the Wii U.

So more and more games incorporated it.

People loved the Amiibos, so they went full force with it.

The Switch has these concepts taken further. The Wii U was held back by the fact it's tethered to the console. The Switch can literally go anywhere but can be docked if needed.

Plus it has the additional appeal of being convenient for multiplayer too.
It scales up the more devices you have.

it being "sold out" doesnt make it a success, it just means stores dont want to waste space on something that wont sell at a steady rate.

all stores would need to do is offer people to order instore on the spot...but they might as well order it from some site online(which the majority do)
>>
>>389491561
You can exaggerate all you want, but i think i'll just play some videogames that appeal to me.
It's a childish "hobby" nonetheless, i get it. Yet it still baffles me how someone over the age of 12 can be seriously excited about new mario game. Haven't you played like 10 of them already?

if you want a switch just check ebay/kjijjii or whatever equivalent in your area

people who do have a switch are done playing with it(zelda), its just a dust magnet now

where are the GAMES???

let me ask you

if the switch is a success why isnt there stock for people to buy one?

shouldn't there be more in stores within a month of being "sold out"

all i see is low production in order to make it seem like its a success
its no different then limited collectors editions of games back in the day, oh you didnt get the 1 copy out of 5000 numbered editions...haha
>>
>>389492949
List them

This guy also held off releasing on 3ds because he thought it sucked. Nintendo dominates a dying market (handhelds).
Pokemon will stop being Nintendo exclusive this year or the next, 100%.

You clearly do not remember the Wii U's first year. From after the launch until Pikmin 3, there was NOTHING. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
December to August, a barren wasteland.
The Switch's first year has at least one major release from Nintendo every month. Plus, one of those releases is a new Splatoon, which really makes the wait between major releases much easier to deal with.

I understand what elements helped the switch succeed (portability, non-retarded marketing), but I just really thought the system's flaws would have kept it down.

The Switch still has Nintendo video games. Meanwhile by adding new hardware elements the industry slowly evolves. Yeah, sometimes the gimmicks don't play out, but when you look at things like touch screens or gyro controls, at this point they're as standard as rumble or control sticks.

>>389475064
Most of everyone thought the Switch was going to have shitty gimmicks like the Wii U but it turned out to be a great console in its own right. It may not have the same processing proneness as the PS4 but it supports Unity/Unreal Engine and was made with a custom Nvidia graphic card, which enables it to get games ported to it relatively easily. Itsportability its its real highlight, the ability to take your system on the go and play with your friends and bring it back at home to play in your bedroom. Its a great system, though it needs more improvements in order to be as good as the PS4,

Like the 3DS, PS4, and the likes, its not going to have a shiton of games at launch. The PS4 mostly had ports of older PS3 games at launch before its variety significantly improved by the end of its 2nd year, I see the Switch following that pattern.

>>389475238
The Switch is already outselling the PS4 in Japan, and catching up in North America pretty fast. Only reason why it hasn't "outsold" the PS4 is because of supply shortages needed to make more Switches. Apple hogged most of the supplies and it'll take Nintendo till next year to outbid Apple for them. Once the shortages end, it'll rival or surpass the PS4 in sales weekly although it'll never surpass the PS4 in overall sales due to the PS4 starting years ago.

>>389475712
Huge bait but I'll bite; I've been taking my Switch to outdoor places such as parks and Swap Meets and the reception towards the device has been surprisingly positive, you have from kids to adults trying that shit out just out of curiosity and the majority of them seem to like the interactivity with the joycon on the games. One of my friends, who's huge on the PS4/AAA game fine, liked it and even ordered one from Gamestop myself. Once Nintendo is able to restock the Switch properly, it'll build a huge installbase easily, and third-parties will start to get games on it.

Sony has to make a PSP3 and buy both The Pokemon Company and the Animal Crossing IP.

I'm not upset at the switch having game nigga, that's your part ;^)

It's not. Dunno what this non sequitur was about tho.
>>
>>389475712
>Which makes switch portability as useful as wii u was.
Not true la. Wii U tablet range wasn't superb, and the screen was bulky with a DPI three times worse than the Switch. And that fucking bezel lmao.

Don't forget the amount of games that used the tablet as a controller UI which meant games were designed for the tablet itself as an afterthought which made controls a little more clunky if you used it in that mode.

Nintendo learned from their past mistake with the Wii U. That is they gave the thing a MASSIVE advertising budget with TV ads using licensed music fucking everywhere including the fucking Super Bowl add to that shit like them releasing the Legend of Skyrim Breath of the Empty of World as a release title and normies just ate that shit up. Lastly the release stock out in bery limited quantities at a time in order to give it that hard to get lire which notmies also fucking love

Then why you get so buttblasted when people point out it's library it's mostly meh games and multiplats?
>>
>>389496706
everyone expected underpowered hardware and they've been properly shitted on for all those things you just listed
>>
>>389497376
? I'm quite happy playign the excellent games on the Switch. The buttblasted niggah are those that deny it. Like you.

>>389497297
Weird, why put 70 here while the PS4 hasn,t sold that much?
>>
Gotta love it that Nintendo has become the PC's meat toilet

I am happy for Nintendo but:

>PS4 sold over 8M in its first 6 months
>Switch has sold under 6 million in its first 6 months

And this is with no other consoles to compete with. I have a hard time seeing the Switch maintaining relevance, but I'm admittedly surprised Nintendo bounced back a bit from the Wii U.
>>
>>389497497
>The buttblasted niggah are those that deny it.
So you're fine with people pointing out how the Switch has mostly mediocre games or multiplats?
>>
>>389495808
>that is why it flopped
Wow, Sony is probably going to go bankrupt if the Switch is considered a flop, just look at those poor PS4 Japan sales LOL
>>

>>389497914
Agreed, Do enjoy Knack 2, baybeee

I dont even know you came to this conclusion also a no-name dev with a game like PUBG is already doing circles around BOTW popularity
>>

Production literally can't keep up with demand anon.

It's literally "not a failure" as hard as it can be.
>>
>>389498141
PUBG has outsold every exclusive on PS4 so I guess we can confirm Sony is dying.
>>
>>389498141
^_^ it's cute when they are upset. It's like they are human
>>
>>389498210
PUBG outsold every Swich exclusive as well so you're saying Nintendo is also dying?

I raise horses, and I will literally deep throat my horse's cock if 2/3 of these things happen
1. Switch ever hits 20 million sales.
2. Pokemon for Switch even goes over 5 million sales. (It will be the blunder that kills the series and forces Nintendo to go 3rd party)
3. Mario even manages a 90 on metacritic with how empty it is.

Nintendo will be dead by 2020. You fucking fanboys are so god damn retarded.

No, the reason the Wii U failed is because it was a shit product with shit software. Blaming the marketing is passing the buck.

You know what, after the great reception of the psp, the vita might have stood a chance but for that stupid memory card issue

>>389498893
The Vita never stood a chance since it literally hasn't gotten a single game throughout its entire lifespan.

Wii's motion controls were actually pretty good on the few games that used them. Too bad most 3rd parties were retards.

Where are these numbers from? The latest figures for the Switch are from June, and I don't think there was a six-month sales announcement for the PS4. Closest one seems to be 7 million in five months. However you count it, Switch launching in March instead of the holiday season makes its sales momentum pretty impressive.

Either way, Switch is still competing with the other consoles as long as they're relevant in the market.
>>
>>389497629
>under 6 million
Literally zero evidence. We'll have actual figures for 7 months in October have some patience.

I can tell you weren't even alive in the 1990s, no one was saying Nintendo was doomed, they were saying PlayStation and Xbox would be massive flops and the Sega would come back once the Dreamcast was released, instead Sega was btfo and Nintendo was knocked down to third place within a few years.
Not to mention, most of the disasters you list happened when Nintendo was the king, so profitable it could afford a few flops like the Virtualboy and so on, now look at it: hasn't made a profit in nearly a decade and they're blowing through their reserves like a drunken sailor.

I don't think they're dying, I think they'll end up pulling out of hardware in the next decade, and start making games for the other consoles + mobile, kind of like Sega.
>>
>>389501708
I can respect someone having a different console preference than I.

But if you support Donald Trump AND like Nintendo, you're a faggot of an inexpressable magnitude of proportions.

To be honest, I am with him. I am not buying Switch, I am fairly satisfied with functionality of my tablet on which I get to play Legend of Grimrock, Xcom, increasingly better Capcom ports (they really did learn their lesson after Ace Attorney).

I prefer to play my console games at the comfort of my home and when console's entire gimmick doesn't appeal to me that much, I'll just wait until it's literally bargain bin price or have enough good games for me to play. As of now it doesn't just for me, I am interested in Mario Xcom and Mario Odyssey, but so far for me it's just two Mario games and a Zelda game I can emulate. You wouldn't buy PS4 just for yet another Uncharted game or God of War, right.

Pokemon were specifically like sorry we havent worked in HD before. Game freak are fucktards with technology. There is nothing wrong with SM's art direction, but just look at the mess jump to 3d X and Y are. all things considered, they are still being out paced by way smaller companies say Atlus, and Gust (to be fair gust works with stronger systems), but also it's competitors have a stronger focus on art direction too like Level 5. And that's just for art direction. Game freaks coding abilities are worrisome at best. And their lack to innovate is always a ehhh, but at least they have a template. I don't know how or why they can fuck up as hard as they have been for the last 3 games when they have such a structured template.
