I get the odd feeling the 1-2 Switch is going to be a million seller.

I think it already is to be honest.

Glad to see 1 2 Switch doing well. Such an amazing game.

On the basis on the data in this thread, is being outsold by 20 year old Neo Geo ROM dumps really "doing well"?

It's tracking to be one of the worst selling Nintendo-published launch titles in history. 

It's doing pretty good considering its not a bundled in game like NSMU and Wii Sports and it had to compete with Zelda. Nintendo is expecting it to reach 1m and I'd say that's a success since it competed with Zelda.

Why the hate for 1,2 Switch? It's nice to see diversity in the Switch line up, plus it's a great party game. It's not aimed at people who frequent these forums, there are other types of gamers out there you know.

No it's not, Jackbox is a great party game, Buzz is a great party game, Singstar is a great party game, Just Dance is a great party game, Mario Party (most of them) are great party games, Wii Sports is a great party game, even Wii Play is ok.

1-2-Switch is barely a game. It was created for one reason "what can we do with these new controllers." Fun took a backseat, as did anything remotely related to rewarding skill.

I can't see any Neo Geo ROMs being a million seller like 1,2 Switch will be. I get it the game is not to your tastes but it has sold remarkably well. The Wii era is well and truly gone, no party games made nowadays will match the sales of the one in the Wii heyday. The market has changed.

I digress, everybody I've played it with has had a blast. Sometimes games allow you to make your own fun. Get the right crowd and 1,2 Switch is very effective.

It's true that with the right people you can have fun with pretty much anything, but then you usually don't have to pay $60 for that.

That's one thing I do agree on. If priced accordingly or bundled people would be less offended by it. I did actually get it very cheap so it has represented value for money for me personally.
