Most of them were banned right? |
That's the thing though, they never would've "learned their lesson". They would've just kept moving the goalposts and carried on indefinitely.
It stops being fun when its just same tired old song and dance over and over and over again.

That will get funny to see with the arrival of the Lite in 3 weeks

I thought this would be a good time to bump the thread. Switch is getting back to back releases. Poke'mon will be out soon. Switch Lite may cause a large boost in sales. Switch is about to outsell XB1. Everything indicates that this isn't a fad. :D
Right, clearly the Switch has not been a failure for Nintendo.
Will the Switch still be doing well in three years, though? That's what I'm curious to find out. I'm not sure if it will have a long lifespan, and if it follows suit with what the Wii did, then sales of it's competitors will overtake the console in the next couple of years. This is why I still think that a hardware upgrade would give the console added life, and I think the way they would need to do it is by allowing developers to tune their games such that both the regular Switch and Switch Pro can play the same games, but with the Switch Pro playing them at a higher resolution or higher whatever.

Well, that was certainly an entertaining read. There's a lesson here folks; before you post anything, bear in mind what it might look like when people bump it years down the line. ;) |
LOL, that was an awesome read. I wonder if any/all of them are quickrick with an alt account. They definitely found a lot of different ways to say Switch sales will "fall off a cliff".
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
My Bet With curl-6

No, the Switch probably won't get Anthem or Doom 2... |
It won't get Anthem, but that ain't a loss. At all. Seriously, at that rate, I'm not convinced Anthem will make it past it's first year.
And we're getting Doom 2 Ethernal.
