I was so high last night, I was totally blown away by the shower. Tracking my hands as the water cascaded over me. And sprawling on the bed was fucking awesome! I also predicted I would never have to poop again. These things happen.

...what?

 If you look at Wii U as a badly marketed, badly supported aberration,

That's a very nice way of defining what the Wii U is.

Also, people in this thread may laugh now, but Nintendo is clearly gunning for a higher rung this time. They don't seem to be complacent anymore.

A little excessive, don't you think?

Yeah. Is the other way to say that wont happen, is impossible to sell as well as wii.

At $300 launch price? Nope. Maybe if it launched for $199.

It's going to be beautiful reading this thread next year, especially if you are a neutral. I win either way :^)

He's a bit too optimistic, isn't he? I could see it doing about as well as the 3DS, maybe 10m more or less.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Had the console been released at $250 with a real game included (not that 1, 2, 3 aberration), then I think it would have had the chance.  But right now I think the asking price is way too much (and after witnessing the Wii U debacle Im not trusting Nintendo with price cuts any time soon).

I think it is too early to tell how the market is gonna react to the proposition, but at things stand right now, I dont think it will get pass the 70m mark.

won't be easy, but it certainly is possible

assuming no 3DS successor, 70m is a given, from there on it depends on how Nintendo and 3rd parties support it



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

I like the concept of switch. We're really getting there were things ought to be more portable. If the thing had a phone capability I'd get it. But no go for me as I don't want to bring too much gadgets on my small bag.

It's already troublesome to keep a phablet, tablet, wallet, wires, and a power bank in check.

PS4, XB1, and PC already cater to most of the games I have time to play.
