What he means is that Nintendo can't denied directly European prices. Only retailers can

That's what the law says. The law and the reality of business aren't the same thing

That's why I say "directly" (I also said "denied" when I meant "decide" (I was on mobile)). I suppose that retailers have agreed to lower the price, maybe pressing Nintendo to lower the price.

So we agree then ;) 

But whomever did it, I'm happy about it.

yep, the color too makes it hardcore.

And stop comparing the price people put into an iphone (by the way most of them have a payment plan they don't just pay 700 $ upfront) and the price they would put into a dedicated gaming machine.

Most parent even prefer to buy a tablet for their kids, because they'll be able to do other things than just playing, like watching youtube.

 

I thought people here on VGchartz would have some knowledge of today's market, but you're like most gamers out there, blinded by your passion for gaming. Unable to see what is right in front of you.

And you're the bimbo saying stupid shit. Get the fuck outta here and dont comment to me again until you get some sense boy.

Here is you last well thought arguments in this conversation

"color? lol"

"you stupid, don't comment until you get some sense"

 

You are a priceless jewel of a human being. I had more meaningful conversation with my toaster. Maybe you should get out of this forum and go somewhere that is more your level, like Miiverse.

We agree, although I think that the initiative of lowering the price came from retailers and not from Nintendo (Also I might be wrong and the orice was set first by the retailers and Nintendo considered it tooo high and forced them to lower it, but I somehow doubt it).

1-2 Switch has actually managed to beat Wii Music as the most cringeworthy game reveal of all time. The good news is that it only costs 50$.

No.... I don't think it has, Cow Milking simulator is bad, but Wii-Music had potential which turned into the shit above, 1-2-Switch really just is dead in the water from the get go, and the fact that it isn't a pack in is the biggest cringe factor of all.

I think people would have been far more likely to buy software like Wii-Sports just for the Bowling game alone than 1-2-Switch

 

 

Just to clarify - I do think 1-2-Switch was terrible in everyway, but I think there was no potential there for it to be anything other than terrible, whereas Wii-Music could have been good and it was a disaster.

Ueah, but people were laughing at Wii music and at least having a good time with the cringe. 12 Switch was just awkward for everyone involved.

I still think 1, 2 Switch is worse, the whole setting, the games themselves, the fat dude in ridiculous clothes and the "epic" feel of it all, it's almost like the game takes itself seriously. But Wii Music is a god number 2 or 3, can't decide between that and Riiiiiiidge Racer, Ridge Racer.

Realistic historic combat.... Giant enemy Crab normally takes my number 1 spot.

But yeah I agree with 1 2 Switch being terrible but I think it was always going to be terrible, how can you possibly hope to demo software of milking a Cow? unless.. you actually could mod the game to put in Nintendo fans in place of the Cows so you milk the cash directly from them? The price of those accessories and the paid online is going to murder so much of the Switch Hype I think, such a damn shame too because I would love such a powerful handheld to be a success but fear Nintendo are going to absolutely make shit out of it.

First it was sort of awkward funny... then they suggested the $50 price tag for it, then it stopped being funny and was just insulting. $350 to be able to play Paper Scissors Rock infront of a Nintendo Console it's like they learned nothing from THQ's downfall with the Udraw tablet, offering people the ability to play games like pictionary on a $100 accessory which required $40-50 software... to play a game which in reality land costs you a pen and paper :S

Haha, "hit its weak spot for massive damage" is also a classic presentation!

Wasn't it the same E3 where the Konami rep gave his fellow on stage the most baleful stare known to man? I seem to remember that whole E3 being a disaster all round for Sony.
