No idea. especially since most stores in the west are accepting pre orders.Maybe Nintendo wants to announce more things that they consider important before opening the pre-orders?



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Capcom is going nowhere. Long live Monster Hunter.

Anyone have any idea how big the new Bomberman will be in Japan? I haven't heard anything about that series in years, but seeing it in the Switch line-up brought back all the old memories.

On the one hand, it's a launch game. Those are sometimes overshipped because retailers order too many copies. So it will likely sell as many copies as retailers first ordered (with the help of fire sales if neccessary).

On the other hand, I wouldn't be surprised if this legitimately did better than the Wii/DS games (which sold about 50k on average) due to the fact that it's the first game in many years. All the recent Konami "re-boots" have done surprisingly well (Momotaro Dentetsu, Jikkyou Pro Yakyuu on PS4/PSV/PS3 and the 3DS game). The wait between games actually seems to help for some reason.

It makes sense. Do you know the meaning of Opportunity Cost?

Just in case, it simply means the more you do something, your desire of it decreases; the less you do it, the desire increases. That's why milking games results in huge drops in sales (Yokai Watch, Guitar Hero/music games).



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

They did say that they had more announcements coming and the Fire Emblem Direct is coming up, so there's that.

Ninendos staggered info release is killing me though. Sony and Mircosoft give you one (or two) big hype shows during the year and that's that. You come away feeling slightly sick and hungover from the hypefest but then you're content with what you got. Nintendo dishes out their info like a manipulative mobile game, always kepping you coming back for more and giving you another little slice.



Good day for PlayStation.


Keep going RE7 and gravity!!

You mean the law of diminishing returns (which typically means that if you keep have two variables eventually you will not receive the same returns for more output). Opportunity cost is the factor of what cost do I get if I did something vs doing something else. Like my opportunity cost by buying a house is that I cannot invest that money to make more money.
