  @nortonsflyer @DoWhatYouDo6 Yes, b/c it doesn't. Nintendo and Sony don't have the same issue that MS had, however Sony has the Business meeting in a few days, so have to wait and see what they are going to do.

  @Alfredo_Toons @makio_jroses I understand the difference, GameFreak codes while Nintendo publishes, not even accounting for Creatures Inc’s third of the ownership. The problem is that on average there’s a new set of pokemon mainline games every 3 years, not accounting everything else like sidegames & (1/2)

  @coyotejack343 Nintendo is known for letting devs take time. Mario Wonder had no deadline and metroid prime 4 has been in development for 8 years because it was originally not good enough. The Pokemon problem comes from how Gamefreak and TPC operate together

  @nightopiaz @lightskinpalace Granted, you could make a case about how it should be sold at a loss. But this has been an issue with Nintendo forever, and not exactly a Switch 2 issue, as much as a Nintendo issue.

  @kazzy_115 Maybe youre young but the last crash introduced 70-80 dollar Nintendo games 70 sega games....you kids don't know how good we have it. If games adjusted like everything else we'd already be at $100 games

  Nintendo predicts 15 million Switch 2 units sold by March 2026, including the 3 million sold in the first 24 hours. This leaves about 12 million more units expected by then. For 2025 alone, analysts estimate 13-14.7 million units, suggesting 10-11.7 million additional sales this year. Strong demand and popular games like Mario Kart World support these numbers, but higher prices ($449.99) and potential U.S. tariffs could slow sales. Supply issues may also persist until January 2026. Forecasts vary, and actual sales depend on market conditions.

  @NierHellFire It is also important to point out. I'm talking about genuine good remakes. P3R, Resident Evil series, Crash Bandicoot etc Not ****** remasters Nintendo likes to produce. Unfortunately some companies really use the idea of remakes as a tool to get into players pockets

  @Pirat_Nation Actually Nintendo isn't the problem as they actually offered to help Game Freak, and Game Freak ******* refused

  @antdude92 I'm not surprised. Nintendo has a major shovelware problem. They allow this game to be on the eShop and yet games like Neptunia Re;birth, Menhera Farm and others are denied. Know what I call this? Hypocrisy.

  The Abysmal Critic: HorrorAmorata (@HAmorata) reported 19 minutes ago

  The one thing no one wants to practice that kills the full price issue is patience. Wait and you can get any game at a discount. Nintendo being the only exception, but they also don't have a game pass option for new releases. Since I play mainly PC games, the physical argument is already been toasted. But I'm not willing to budge over owning my games. FOMO is the one thing that really gives Games as a Service air.

  It is, you’re giving me an argument with no way to prove it. You just saying it doesn’t mean it’s true. I can’t find a single example that proves Sony and Xbox don’t do the same thing. Also I would argue even if it was a problem with only Nintendo, which it’s not, they just filled over 3 million console preorders on day 1. The most video game consoles sold on day 1 of all time. Thats the opposite of scarcity. Also they sold twice as many console as the ps5. Opposite of scarcity. I’m talking about consoles only right now.

  I don’t know about the PS5 (I have all three consoles and I barely play the PS5 and Switch). Both Nintendo and PlayStation have a larger fan base than Xbox. I think the consumers want more out of these devices. I use Xbox the most because of the service. I personally prefer the UI over Nintendo and PlayStation. Also, I liked Xbox customer service the most.

  wait I just realized this means Nintendo *lied* in their compatibility data. Pikmin 3 was not in any of the lists of problematic games, meaning Nintendo was insinuating the game worked perfectly. Yet here the game is completely not working.
