Now I wonder why Swordfish has not asked you to prove  who those people are that hyped up Labo because I sure am not one of them and can take this as a 'passive jab' at me using his line of logic.

I did not mention anybody in my post. I mentioned Haterz.....and they do exist. Are you one of them ? If you are not one I see no reason for you to reference my post. I will say no more on the issue. If the person whose post I responded to has no problem with my post, I see no reason why you should.

Why are you taking a post that makes no reference to you so personal ?

My post was aimed at both of you. And no you didn't mention anybody in your point and that makes the issue worse. Instead it's passive jabs not addressed to anybody. Since there isn't really an issue of people saying Labo will flop to troll, it's kinda pointless to bring up unless you name the few that you have an issue with. Btw, having these discussions you might realise they have valid points for having that opinion. 

My point stands that you 2 having this discussion about something that doesn't really exist makes other people reading believe that there is an issue, hence why I said it causes more damage than trolling. 

And to top it all off, it feels a little rushed to already say that their opinions are wrong based on a few days of Amazon charts. 

Firsty, I dont think you have a monopoly of determining what is or is not an issue. 

Secondly, why are you now acknowledging that there exists opinions that could be wrong or right based on a few days of Amazon charts ? Is that some kind of reverse trolling or what exactly ?  And just in case you missed it, my entire point is that it is premature to make any assumptions either way.

Labo is marketed as a 'Toy'....even has 'Toy-con' as part of its marketing and is unlike traditional games so why should anybody be tagging it a flop this early in its lifecycle ?

I'm not talking about anybody here specifically. It's just something i noticed in general. No, Switch is not doomed.

So far, Switch shipped the most consoles this year, and its forecast is also the highest one. Not saying it's dominating, but it's doing really well and without any major games so far.

OT: What's causing Switch to be up lately? Is it DK, Labo or both? May seems to be an interesting month for it.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

I dont recall that anyone said that Labo will dominate everything this year, and Switch is actually doing very good.

I would said combination of DKTF, Labo and Hyrule Warriors.

I am really surprised that DKTF is doing so strong.

And my opinion applies to pioneer. Some people have already questioned what he said and to maybe explain further or provide evidence that this is the thought of more than just a few people. This is the point I'm making. And why would it be a passive jab at you if what pioneer said isn't aimed at a opinion you have? 

 

Regarding your other post. 

Firstly, It's a problem on these forums. In fact the few that played down Labo sales are probably causing the same issue by making broad statements because a few people thought Labo was going to be massive at launch. It's a vicious circle. 

 

Secondly, not sure where that's going. I think what I said was ok. You're taken it in the wrong way and I can't really be bothered to argue over it

GoW & PS4slim both still sold out? wtf is amazon doing?
